I hate being force-fed more and more JAM every week. If it was not not Ellie Kemper I would have stopped watching long ago.

Yeah, being able to naturally act an over-the-top scene says a lot about the talent of Ellie. That is probably the second best part of the episode. The best part was her expression to Pete after the double-dating discussion. So much was communicated with so little screen time. Excellent!

I doubt they will just follow Erin around. The second half of this season appears to have less Erin than the previous few seasons. As I fan who started watching in season 6 because of Ellie's performance in Murder I have to say that I am very disappointed.

You should still watch it, but you will have to use that FF button a lot. Now, if we can just fast forward to Brenda Forever…

There is just not enough Erin in this final season. This is the major failing. I am under the impression that her role was even reduced mid-season. I am sure a lot of people watch the show because of her. IMO it is foolish not to give her more exposure.
