That Karen plot sure was a bummer.  I knew she was probably only there to fuck with Lip as revenge for that angry voicemail, but I sure did want her to be genuine in her apparent decency.  It seemed kind of plausible to me, since she had been a relatively pleasant person to begin with, before Eddie's verbal abuse made…

"It's a system, or it could also be called a code. Are you ready? If yes, say nothing!  Nothing?  Nothing is what I'm hearing!"
[sneeze]
"Oh, what was that, did you say something?
"… No."
"What did we say 'no' meant?"

The season one commentaries were pure gold, with Benjamin just doing bits constantly while Bouchard struggles to get a word in edgewise about the show.

It's funny how Shannon has grown on me over time.  I didn't like him much at first, on account of him being a bully and such, but that was another case of me ignoring a character's awesomeness because he's not very nice.  Luckily I got over that quickly enough, and now I'm at a point where I laugh at everything he…

Or, "No job's too big for the boy they call small!  Brendon Small, that is!  So vote for him for president of the student council!" if you're not into the whole brevity thing.

God, that poor kid.  The piledriver makes me downright hysterical every time.

How can such a minor, rarely-seen character ruin a whole show?

Not blank enough!

Carly Rae has yet to master that sweet Laurel Canyon sound.

I like the Kobayashi Maru analogy.

Yeah, that one's still a mystery.

For an episode focused on Jessa, I found myself enjoying this episode to a surprising extent.  Her dad and stepmom were very entertaining.  And learning about her dad did a great job of explaining some of why Jessa is the way she is.  She was even a little sympathetic, however briefly.

Being insufferable doesn't necessarily preclude an occasional hilarious, blunt line like that one.

What a filthy keyboard you have, O'Neal!

I believe that did happen, but when he returned to WWE he regained rights to the name.

He's half-everything.

@LJo1:disqus Awww… well, I guess that's good, huh?

Sounds like last scene of a series finale.  You didn't get killed immediately thereafter, did you?

Boom Boom Pow is definitely the worse of the two, but they are both musical hellspawns, blacker than the blackest black, times infinity.  Pure evil.

How 'bout those little memory clips while they were giving their vows?  That was some straight-up LOST-style tearjerking magic.
