I liked “Roseanne” when it originally aired. When they brought it back I watched and enjoyed it; the show really wasn’t what so many represented it as being (I’m not blind to its flaws, but it wasn’t what most of the naysayers said it was).

Michael “D.J.” Fishman could not be reached for comment.

Chuck was, in the small pond of Albuquerque lawyers, a gigantic fish. It may be unfair that Jimmy has to deal with his legacy, but it’s not incomprehensible.

If Jimmy had even said, “Chuck was my older brother, obviously, but I’m not Chuck and I need to succeed or fail on my own terms,” I think they would have given him his license back.

Paige is as anxious for Kim to do well as anybody else (Paige’s reputation is on the line for bringing Kim in at the start). Kevin’s response will be “I knew you could do it!while Paige’s response will be “You’ve made ME look good, too!” Neither one is going to care HOW she did it, just that she did the Kimpossible.

That which was apparently invisible to Jimmy was crystal clear to me: The older woman on the review panel IDOLIZED Charles McGill, Esquire. The answer she was fishing for when she asked “What does the LAW mean to you?” was the answer Chuck might have given, about the abstract majesty of the LAW, not the touchy-feely “g

The miracle is exactly what she’s going to sell them. They’re not going to ask for details, they’re just going to put her on an even higher pedestal.

Lalo is probably the most insincere character on this show.”

If you think of “moral dessert” as always being a reward for being good, it’s understandable that you wouldn’t realize you’re spelling it wrong. But “moral desert” covers both reward and punishment; bad results follow bad actions because that, too, is what’s deserved. Otherwise, bad actions would result in “moral no-d

Well, Jason thought Michael was Janet’s dad back in Season 1 (when he wanted permission to marry Janet) so it’s not like it came from NOWHERE...

Nobody else has mentioned it, but the high point of the episode for me was seeing that damned cast come off Kim’s arm. I was releived on behalf of both Kim Wexler and Rhea Seehorn.

Sideshow Bob sings a version with the lyric “And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like ‘I kill you.’” I don’t know which episode, and that one line may be all that he sings, but it was first-ever exposure to the song.

How would the “Quarter Pounder with Cheese in France” scene play out in French? What DO they call a Whopper in France?

A full-time law student (not Kim’s situation, presumably) who takes a job in a law firm over the summer doesn’t do paralegal work (again, they actually have HIRED paralegals to do that); they are “law clerks” or “summner associates” or some such. They do legal research (they don’t assemble hearing binders), and I’m gue

Eh. Both of them also fit the “super genius” category. ‘Billionaire philanthropist playboy’ gets you elected Governor. ‘GENIUS billionaire philanthopist playboy’ is a super-power.

You’re 24 and lost your virginity when you were 16. Your best friend (also 24) just lost his virginity. OF COURSE you’re going to want to hear the play-by-play, and you’ll be genuinely and enthusiastically interested!

That’s true, of course, but we also have Jimmy’s judgment (yes, I know, “consider the source”) that Howard’s a shitty lawyer. That “HHM” wasn’t just “H&M” was a gift from his father (and it kept people from walking in to buy stylish clothing at a reasonable price). Maybe Howard can “sell the product,” but he needs a pr

It may seem obvious, but it may well be that women are the breaking point which gets Kai killed. You’d be happy there for ten months with every amenity except women? So would I. But others might not. Bringing women in? Maybe, if you brought them in under the same terms as the men (if you enter, you can’t leave until t

We’ve still got three weeks (note: not “three episodes”) until Kim gets her cast off. I expect we see that before we see Nacho in good shape...

Howard’s a great middle manager thrust into responsibility of being a CEO/rainmaker. For all the will in the world, he just doesn’t have it in him.
