Parks and Rec and Sunny both blasted it out of the park last night.  Solid A's for both.

I'm more surprised about History being in 2nd.

I'm surprised no one said this earlier.

¡Un woodpequero loco!

And did you know, that when it snows,
My eyes become large, and the light that you shine can be Dean.

Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the Craig.

Isn't this essentially another "bottle episode"?  The walkie-talkies break it up a bit, but it is more-or-less the entire gang all bottled up in the same place/situation.  Don't we traditionally love those episodes?  I laughed my ass off at this one, frankly… I'm pretty sure it would place in my Sunny top 10, were I

If you're a Scottish lord, then I am Mickey Mouse!

I believe that those rankings are sufficient grounds to tear your heart out.  KALI MA!

I don't understand why Emily, or anyone, would approach any episode of Sunny as a "mystery," or try to grasp at a not-yet-clear plot rather than just enjoy the hilarity.

I was kinda stunned to show up here and see a B-, and a bunch of disapproving comments… I thought it was the best episode of the season, and one of the best in the series.  The whole "starting mid-zany-scheme" structure totally worked for me, and— well, pretty much

So edible.

MASTER CYLINDER!

Classic O'Neal.

You never go full-on skank.

Yeah, I'm probably being unfair to Lumen in my defense of Chase.  She was good overall; just annoyed me occasionally.  But I liked Chase, in terms of his psychology and overall creepiness. I suppose he was generic in terms of his sheer villainy and lack of redeeming characteristics, but he still worked for me.

It woulda been nice to have a significant change like that (which Rita's death turned out not to be), but Lumen wouldn't have been the right character for that.  Probably just because I knew she'd only be there for one season, but I never saw Lumen's "dark passenger" as anything other than wanting revenge on the rape

So does "packed up his stool."

True, that was the season where she went from tolerable to intolerable.  I let it slide in S2 but 3 was too much. I guess I just compartmentalized the Rita stuff because I liked the Smits arc a lot.

Yup, totally agree with these reviews.  Awful episode.  I do hope that it manages to improve.  The fact that the premise seemed to interest me enough to actually make me tune in, suggests that there's at least the potential for a good show there.  Maybe they can chisel away at that thoroughly unpleasant, random, and
