The pickled tomatoes weren't at the university cafeteria, thank god. I can't even imagine what those would've been like. I'm with Elizabeth when she told Mrs. Morozov not to tell Pasha he's eating eggplant - so long as you don't tell someone what the food is, they'll keep an open mind!

Lol, yeah, I'm American, but I studied abroad in Russia during college. The university cafeteria had Shuba labeled as Селёдка под шубой, which was a little too specific for my Russian language capabilities but I'll try any food once. I ate it every chance I could get. The only Russian food I couldn't stomach was…

If Shuba is another term for Herring Under a Fur Coat, that shit is delicious. It easily wins the award for tastiest food with nastiest name. Thank God no one translated the name for me until I had been eating it every day for a month.

Me too. It was like a jab at other shows that go back in time and change something small when they realize they should alter something to make it seem like time has really passed.

I was actually thrilled when he said "and sometimes your sister," because I think one of the best things this show did was start including Summer as a character. I've been consistently afraid they're just going to give up on writing a "girl character" but she adds such a nice balance between Rick's cynical superior…

I loved Morty saying "what are you talking about" over and over again. Partly because I was thinking the same thing, since I stumbled upon the new episode late and had missed the whole dipping sauce thing so I figured they just threw that in to be random.

He's particularly interesting in the proper context of the film. It's post WW2, Vienna is in literal ruins. Harry's attitude is a lot more understandable (albeit still despicable) if you consider the shit he's possibly seen.

Yeah…sorry Morozov, but as an American, I always thought kvass tasted like piss

I loved her face after Pastor Tim's response that everyone thinks that.

I'm secretly hoping he pops up again Frank Gaad style like when Stan went to visit Gaad at home before the unfortunate vacation-turned-impalement. But I just can't see Oleg visiting Arkady for advice after that whole "they don't execute people for no reason" conversation when Nina bit the dust.

And hell, they can take Misha with them, because I see nothing good coming for the guy. He has no idea what he's stepping into. And with that preview, I couldn't help but think - does the poor guy even know English? (I'm sure he does a little, otherwise this wouldn't work out too hot).

I really loved the parallels between Oleg and Stan this week - two guys who want to do the decent thing at the risk of pissing off their superiors and subsequently endangering their own professional and personal lives. I did not expect Stan to pull that Vlad card, but it was sublime. Poor Martha definitely became Poor…

My favorite part about the movie is that even though Philip is the one falling apart, Brandon is the one who really screws them over because his bloated ego just cannot take NOT getting found out.

Normally I'm only stuck with horrendous sound and picture quality when I'm watching early talkies, but I'm glad TCM will still air certain movies just to get them out there. It took me forever to check Under Capricorn off my Hitchcock list. Despite the roughness of the old copy, it definitely wasn't a terrible film.…

Yeah, basically where I'm at. I've never been a fan of Marvel flicks because of their completely cookie-cutter nature, banality, lack of personality. But this hour was so completely satisfying as a unique vision that was allowed to be itself that I am just…happy. That's all.

I loved him threatening to swallow everything in the medicine cabinet. "Stool hardeners, stool softeners…my stools won't know what to do!"

I have seen the episode about the missing key so many times. Roger's spy date might be my favorite line delivery ever:

GOOD GOD NON-NATIVE ORNAMENTAL GRASSES! STEVE, DON'T LOOK!

"Hey Chaz, will you take me home? My tummy doesn't feel so good. I should've just had sex with that mayonnaise."

I considered that, but I'd be surprised if Stan has the clout to get a dude in Moscow to approach Oleg and set up a meeting to warn him about the CIA using him. How many Americans were wandering around Moscow in the Soviet era? And how many of those would willingly work around the CIA? And Stan was so set on using the…
