The marmite goes on the crack, I'm afraid.

A team up of the only two doctors ever to break the fourth wall! Things are about to get meta!

He seems like the kind of director a young Tarantino would have obsessed over. I bet he'd have a small cult in a few years, once home video really starts getting everywhere.

Yeah, I'm not getting that Debbie (and Rhonda) weren't doing any work. It was just work of a slightly different nature.

This is going to be controversial, but Betty Gilpin's reaction when Birdie ice-knifes her is as funny as Brie wrestling herself in episode 5.

I think on the whole I'd go with For Your Eyes Only, but it kills me how much people don't get how good the clown bit is.

Lazenby was OK, but Diana Rigg killed. Anyone would have looked good in OHMSS.

I think the film suffered from the fact that the books hadn't ended until the film was mostly done. Wright didn't know whether Scott ended up with Knives or Ramona or what. So the story is a little mushy and ambivalent since it didn't know how it was going to end. From what I gathered from commentary, that's one

And cheaper to license than "Walking on Sunshine."

Sheila fighting her own happiness, not sure she should really go for broke and howl in public, made me feel warm and fuzzy.

They ambushed Jack Hanna outside of a Carson taping. It was a whole thing.

It's sidestepped it for now, and I'm glad. But that scene also sets up a potential minefield down the road when the unnaturally intuitive and utterly un-self-conscious Rhonda talks - as 14 women do - about what led her to make that particular joke and it gets back to Debbie.

Yeah, well put. I think that's my problem. At the moment it seems like Rhonda's story is more about facilitating Sam's story or Justine's or even Carmen's. We don't really know what Rhonda wants yet. Maybe that'll come in time.

Nice to have Jenny get some face time. I don't care what Sam says, Knives Chau needs her sword. Ruth showing up for Sheila's party under the circumstances and not leaving until Sheila got comfortable was a good moment for her.

"Nobody walks away from the Regional Manager of Blockbuster Video, Debbie!"

That was a nice detail. Cartoonish in just the right way.

The Super Bowl Shuffle has never truly answered for its crimes.

Did he? I thought I saw it in the background in "The Dusty Spur," and it's the one she used for her rap. I mean it's not glaring or anything. The prop guy could have just thought "'80's keyboard, check." But I've been spoiled by the crazy level of thought they put into the little details so far.

When Sam stopped her from playing and Gayle Rankin half-corpsed I wanted to hug her.
