Here, here!!!

That would be an awesome reference!

Did you notice the book he was reading when Jack walked into the bar? I paused the TV and saw it was Karl Marx's Das Capital. Can't figure out what that is about. Love Denis O'hare.

Used to be someone from Treme, and now Blake Lively on the big screen. So many hookups.
