Yes, anyone who can help us out, please do! I didn’t get it at all.

I mean the zombies do actually eat people. I think the school incident in this episode emphasized why it doesn’t quite work as a metaphor for racism, homophobia, xenophobia, etc.

“With any procedural, it’s easy to wish the case-of-the-week component would just go away so the show can focus more on larger stories and characterization.”

I wish.

Because people who live in Alabama should matter? Because that’s why we had Roe v Wade and other decisions made at the federal level? Because many other states are taking the cue?

One thing I weirdly love about this show is how they make zero effort to make Greater Toronto look even remotely like Staten Island, and how it actually makes it funnier to me. I can’t explain why since “this is so obviously not this location” is frequently one of my bigger TV pet peeves.

Sure, but I thought the Lenny Bruce conceit was embarrassing overkill.

Agreed. Looked so little like the other one and felt like there was a massive time jump that there really wasn’t. Very jarring.

I really like this series but I found this episode to be extremely heavy-handed. The show will never be praised for subtlety but this one was just kind of exhaustingly obvious.

That was incredibly disturbing.

He wasn’t in last night’s episode but yeah, the sessions continued after he made his intentions clear. He should’ve have ended the sessions right then and there. Creep indeed.

I’m not entirely sure Sam’s going to stick to the “move out” directive. In fact I’d be surprised if she does.

Cheddar was there, automatically making this at least an A- episode. But then Cheddar was Terry’s accomplice in winning the heist? A indeed.

I had to rewind because for a second I forgot the situation and thought I was hallucinating. It was amazing.

“I definitely have some bigger questions about the value of bringing him back from the dead just to use him to stir up drama in Jane and Raf’s relationship.”

Oh man, I’d completely blocked out that weird obsession!

I thought it was Bob who said “some people have all the luck” while Ron seemed the only person in the room who thought it was not great luck that a young boy was raped. I liked that balance.

This show is 300x better than any of those, though.

Agreed — she wants to hold on to her vibrancy and joy, not her youth. She’s not out there trying to pass for 30 or getting plastic surgery or something.

I can understand her being Team Rafael in terms of “which man will Jane choose?” but being outraged that Jane won’t just pretend her feelings for her husband don’t exist so that she can preserve a family? That’s a bridge too far. She can be disappointed that they’re in this situation because she loved the family…
