BDP, just as bland here as he was in Orphan Black.

Either that or he thinks Sara likes to get around. And let's face it, she doesn't have the greatest track record.

Yes, I admit my reaction to her was tainted by her appearances last season. I guess that's part of the reason I didn't find her story interesting this episode. Last season she didn't portray the agony over her dead fiancé or her resolve to kill her father particularly convincingly, so the moment at the police station…

Oh yeah I remember now. That was great!

Am I the only one who's not a major fan of the Huntress episodes? I think the character itself it's really interesting, but I find the actress very wooden. I thought it was a major problem in her episodes last season. This one did well on relying on the awesome Caity Lotz for the emotional impact.

Speaking of Dig, did he have a line of dialogue this episode? It's like the writers looked at last week's Dig-centric episode and decided he didn't need to speak in this one.

So true. That scene where she reaches for a bottle of alcohol in the middle of a hostage crisis didn't ring true at all. Also, try as she might, Katie Cassidy cannot play recovering alcoholic convincingly if they gave her a hundred sobriety chips.

Thea, you in danger girl.

This is my favorite thing in the entire comments section.

She's best friends with Beyonce, so I'm siding with Gwyneth on this one. Christ Martin's responsible for X&Y, so I was never going to be on his team. We are picking a team, right?

Yes, I agree with all your points here. I think it's unfair for people to call Bryan sexist and racist, the second accusation in particular I find baseless. However, I do think that the way he writes the females characters on this show has been problematic from day one, which is surprising given his past record. I…

Have you read this essay by Hettiene Park yet? http://yellowbird66.wordpre…

You are right on the money! The reaction to this show is directly related to whose personal essays the show is trying to tell. A lot of people don't like Hannah, for both legitimate and ridiculous reasons, so I can understand why they wouldn't want to sit through 30 minutes every week that are more or less trying to…

Sorry for the replies, but I do want to point out that while I haven't much liked the overall structure of this season, it has allowed for the best writing the show has done for Hannah and Adam. That, paired with Dunham's improved acting this season has made for essential viewing for me, even when I didn't like much…

But then again, I'm one of the people who watches this show primarily for Hannah, so what do I know?

The personal essay approach is the reason I was attracted to this show in the first place. I liked the disjointed feeling we experienced from one episode to another because it felt so different from everything else on TV.

I'm sorry but there is no bond between Jessa and Beadie. They spent tops 10 minutes together in the last two episodes combined and despite the effort from the actresses, their scenes came off as nothing more than an afterthought. There was potential there for perhaps an interesting look at the character of Jessa, but…

I still use the phrase whenever someone needs something from me and I'm extremely busy. It's the one truly lasting thing that show ever gave to us.

I was so happy when that happened. The fact that Hanna knows Treat Williams from a little seen WB show means she can't be all that bad. Right?

Exactly. I think it's a shame because they've really given her a lot to work with this season, but she has sadly not risen up to the occasion.
