    I watched it as a kid so my experience is a little bit different, but rewatching it it as an adult I was pleased with how well it held up. I found it to be genuniely funny, not just a "funny because I remember it from childhood" kind of thing. The whole series is on DVD.

    If Irene wanted to settle just because other people told her it's a good idea, Davis & Main could have talked her out of it (they would totally try to talk her out of it to wait for more money, and she probably would have caved because she trusts them). Now she has an emotional reason to insist on settling.

    I think it also may have been a way for him to measure the pills? It seemed like there was some shuffling with how many pills he put back in the bottle. I was thinking that maybe it was a way for him to quickly eyeball it and put roughly the same number of pills back in so Hector wouldn't notice a difference.

    The PGU guys mentioned Operation Zephyr; I'm wondering if Stan's rant in front of the mail robot back in season 3 is finally coming into play. Man this show is good at the long game.

    Wake in Fright, which takes what I thought was a total cheap shot by putting real footage of kangaroos being shot into a narrative movie. Even though they were trying to make a point against kangaroo hunting, I thought that was a bridge too far. Probably the one movie I wish I could take back seeing, which is a shame

    Was that supposed to be a warning? I thought Gabriel was trying to say that they should think about retiring too. After all, he wanted them to go home at the end of last season.

    Agreed, I don't think a lot of people realize how much really good discussion there is in the various subfourms. If I were going to recommend Something Awful to someone, I would tell them to skip the Main section and go from there.

    I loved that as well, plus it added a bit more nuance to why Pastor Tim isn't turning in P&E, because he has some sympathies with their cause. Now I'm sure if he knew that they've killed people and whatnot he'd change his tune, but it helps sell why he's okay with them as he currently perceives them.

    I'm hoping they finally get some Russian-speaking voiceover people who sound close enough to their voices and just dub them over. The little bit of Russian that Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell have had to struggle through thus far is really unconvincing.

    "But waiting an entire decade to follow up the kind of movie everybody sees and very few people like feels willfully perverse."

    I've been thinking for a few seasons now that Tears for Fears' Pale Shelter would be perfect for the show.

    I love Better Call Saul, but three episode nominations? They at least could have made some space for The Americans' "The Magic of David Copperfield", as that was one of the best episodes in the whole series.

    Is Last Window worth tracking down? I enjoyed Hotel Dusk but I never got Last Window since it wasn't released in the US. I'm wondering if it's worth getting an import copy.

    His brother is on Nathan's Facebook group, I think he probably knows what's up.

    Can't be, not a single song has "rock" in the title.

    "Nobody ever made it through those curves doing over 30. What's your speed?"
    "170, is that a problem?"

    When sexy becomes annoying.

    Agreed, after all that happened in the previous games I don't really think Kratos deserves a second chance at anything. It might work if the fact that his fresh start is unearned was incorporated into the story, but it doesn't look like they're going that way.

    Possibly her dad hid the package somewhere else and brought it home when the coast was clear? Not that they implied that at all, just my guess.

    I think when Philip and Irina met up in season 1 Philip was supposedly there to attend some kind of travel agent convention, so she probably knew that was his cover.
