So should I skip season 1 and jump right in with season 2? This being an 80's sitcom, I'm assuming ep1 of season 2 will catch me up, but just thought I'd ask.

I mean, he's also an adult who stuck with his childhood nickname "Choo Choo," so I think we're safe to assume he wasn't too bright to begin with.

Sewer mouths and gallons of human spit? I guess Malvo reads the AV Club comments…

Agreed on the flickering lights. I also think his mysterious disappearance from Lester's basement in the pilot was the first metaphysical hint surrounding his character.

This show is the granddaughter I always wanted but was afraid to buy online.

Agreed—I wouldn't expect anything full-on supernatural. His mysterious basement escape was strange, but potentially explainable.

Couldn't help but notice that this is the second HateSong in a row in which "ignorant" hip-hop is mentioned in a positive light by the hater. The last one was Cole Alexander on Lorde's "Royals," although at this point he's talking about how he doesn't like Drake: "Personally, I like more melodramatic, ignorant rap…

Strange that Dowd left Lawrence Fishburne out of this review entirely…

To add to Erik's point about the music supervision and well chosen tracks: "A History of Bad Men" by Melvins was playing while Rust was getting frisked. The Iron Crusaders have a far superior jukebox to any of the MCs on Sons of Anarchy.
