Talk about giving a girl something she can feel…
And a perfect lead in for Hung.

Am I the only one who read a bit of a dig in the last scene, something along the lines of a Samantha Geimer-style confrontation?

You owe Yasiin a direct individual apology for that one, in fact.

Possible but highly unlikely.

Same indie cred (both Parker and Leigh), but older on both counts.

The Latin-quoting grandfather?  Those guys in that room are Masons.

I guess I am clearly the only one who had an unexpected flashback to Six Feet Under, because once again we have a Michael C. Hall character blindsided by an unsolicited blowjob.  This one turned out to be more conveniently advantageous than the other, but still…

Logically enough, I think.

In my mind, Paul's death could push buttons in a couple of ways, where having Paul alive but seriously incapacitated would take focus off of Cathy, which I think has been another show entirely already.

For what it's worth.

Oh, don't go there.  Swoosie Kurtz belongs next to Blythe Danner.

You're not wrong.  That's all I can push through my brain.

Still, compared to Hawkeye Pierce…

My opinion is that within the even larger macro of Silas finding something of his own to hold on to (remember when he knocked that chick up back in season one?) seems to be kind of the inverse of where the show has been taking Nancy, and frankly, makes for neater connections in the through-line.

and a request that I echo myself.  What is the point of making a TV show about a character that is largely unrelatable?  That's the kind of show that no one wants to watch, and Dog knows there are already enough of those on the pile.

Given what happened to Andy in the episode that aired prior…

I thank Dog that Laura Linney is a good friend of Armistead Maupin's.  I think that being so close to actual gay men kept that scene from going to a place that would have rung so false that I would have given up on the show forever.  I hate to say it, but I think I found myself not trusting her as an executive…
