He gets Maury to recount the story in his office. The bug picks it up. Richie's off the hook with the cops, and Maury's on.

The way I see it, they've set it up so Maury can get burned to the mob. Richie will probably get Maury to tell some stories that the bug can overhear, and that will satisfy Richie's part of his deal with the cops.

I laughed my ass off when Clark discovered Disco. After we've all been talking about Kool Herc and hip-hop, he up and invents disco dancing because he wants DJ Whatsisname to realize that "track 4" means the fourth song.

We don't need to deconstruct Jamie. She's doing that fine by herself.

You are correct about Devin. He was winning her back by explaining his behavior. Then he walked across the street, because, I guess, it's too soon for the show to get them back together.

Lawyers. Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em.

I see it as trying to be very opaque and edgy up front, playing fast and loose because nobody was riding herd. Now they're getting some narrative flow because they have to turn in this assignment before the end of the semester. Plot points are ticking down, but character and aesthetic are being slid along the ice.

Yeah, because that kind of stuff never worked for Shakespeare…

Buck was waving a gun around and sexually assaulted Richie. Self defense is a good call. But it'll be harder to assert, the farther they go into obstruction of justice.

Wait, what? I've been posting until it's made me sick that Richie's behavior is a concrete expression of his guilt over what he's done, and that he can't possibly stop it or redeem himself until he starts telling people other than co-conspirators that he did it.

His most well-known role is as a cop on Will and Grace. His most awarded role is as Gyp Rosetti on B.E.

You're seeing it as narrative flow. I've been seeing it as character and plot flow. Slightly different. Okay for what it is now, but I was kind of digging the opaque nature of it before.

Jesus, AV Club, it's only been four days, and you made it nearly impossible to find this article.

That mono / stereo thing makes sense. Mono only needed the needle moving in one dimension. The grooves are shallower and narrower and you can pack more per unit of radius. For stereo it's using two, and needed lateral real estate that forces you to use a wider groove pitch.

My theory on the fantasy inserts comes from the fact that we saw Ernst, too.

What's funny is if you took a vote here that'd probably win.

Parts of it. Parts seemed a bit muddled and self-indulgent. He was EP and the segments were written and directed by others, who got no input to even try to make their parts look similar. They were just assigned a story or musician and told to go make a film. Vinyl isn't quite that disjoint, but it's got more…

Hypothesis: People have opinions about this show. Evidence: Just keep scrolling.
