Yeah I'm not convinced he's right for this show yet; then again, his role is pretty undefined as of yet.

I don't know; certainly the ambiguity is purposeful, though. Lost featured a major character with supernatural tendencies who completely squandered his gift and became one of the villains of the show. It also featured a major character who claimed to to be "special" but was completely full of shit. That was a big part

I'm not sold on the Gerhardt story yet. But otherwise another fabulous episode. Truly was not expecting to see a return of the UFO thing.
This show is just wonderfully insane; the one Gerhardt highlight for me was the barn bit, where Donovan's character is questioning a dead man with no ears. It's never followed up,

And even that's just a matter of opinion. For some—including some scientists—the more they learn about the universe, the less they believe in the idea of it coming into existence through chaos. No matter what you believe in, you have to address the idea of a beginning. Loving science does not negate the possibility in

In addition to all the other comments, don't forget that we saw the scene that he describes at the end of Season 1, and we know that Holy Wayne wasn't there. Tommy just picked up the baby and ran.

Yeah I appreciated that scene in the publisher's office in that it showed that, no, she's not just magically cured. She's still a person who was up until very recently manipulated for years by a cult where she cultivated violent tendencies.

Well la-di-da, Braggy McFatdick.

Oh I'm a huge Harmon fan. All of his work. I'm a big defender of his, and I only feel comfortable saying anything about it because, as you say, they're both so open about it. I'm not trying to shit talk the guy, I just think the cards were stacked against him.

Indeed she did. Makes me wonder if hey have plans for her.

it's so sad, but as you say, marriage doesn't work if someone's unstable, verbally absuive, chronically depressed and alcoholic.

If you can dig up the video feed from LA Podfest it's well worth a watch. You can't hear it on the podcast, but Gemberling is bussin' up the whole time. The Boyz' facial expressions are masterful.

I love how they reworked it for Culkin's character in the S2 premiere.

I didn't get that impression at all. She ripped her note in half. I mean, lest we forget, her mother TRIED TO SET HER ON FIRE. She prob needs some time.

It's really upsetting, isn't it? That sort of mentality is how rapists often justify their behavior. "He/she liked it."

I thought this was incredibly strong all the way through, personally, but to each his own. I was a little miffed that the publisher meeting went the way it did, because I think the idea of Laurie's book being published has way more interesting ramifications than what ended up happening.

That would be awesome. I was always hoping we'd get a flashback episode of the woman in the first scene of the pilot.

No, if anything this show is an indictment of religion. The end of this episode sort of analyzes the sort of lies and ear-tickling most religions are based upon.

All this episode did was make me very self conscious about the size of my penis.

My heart just jizzed

Look, it's not my fault I don't put a lot of thought into my posts
