Is it really responsible to call this a season 1 review? Unless I've missed it, all the season reviews you guys do usually include at least four episodes for review. Seems pretty disingenuous.

"rendering one of the friendliest and sincerest figures in the pop culture canon into something of a manipulative prick"

"her—clearly gay—husband"
You sound like Larry. Has this show taught you nothing about sexuality? Just because Fig's husband doesn't love her doesn't mean he's "clearly" gay. They're both horrible people, and hooking up with a dude on his staff is not the end-all-be-all evidence of his sexuality.
