I think he's sincere in that he would've pointed it out because he likes the thrill of a shootout, but the way he delivered was in such a "you stupid idiot" way. Also, can we lobby to have the term "suicide by pole" now entered into the vernacular?

Even when conversing with a corpse, Raylan is king of the assholes

What's intriguing though is that somehow the Bennet (Dickie) is in prison while the Crowe (Dewey) has through sheer audacity of logic found himself in the outside world

Michael Rapaport isn't doing revelatory work as Daryl, but he has found the hick menace inside of the character that makes him dangerous where he easily could have been insufferable

Daryl is the inverse Mags: They are both all about family, but Daryl doesn't posses the guile to maintain a proper criminal enterprise. And while he was more than happy to scrape at the bottom of the crime barrel, once he started hitting above his weight class, that lack of cunning is what keeps him from success.

The highlight reel you can make out of comical Justified deaths and matters of assault is reason enough to wade through the boring exposition that occasionally bogs the show down

Even with weaker material, Justified is still one of the best shows at making shit hit the fan.

Dewey Crowe is the greatest asset this show has

For all the talk about Archer being a jackass, it was nice to see him be competent in the field. Sure, he fucked up the one big detail in that his drug connection is actually an undercover officer, but up until that point, Archer actually had everything figured out, and could mostly get by as long a Cyril wasn't

Jodorowsky captured so vividly in that film the concept of divinity that it's hard not to see it's influence in anything that calls attention to God through art, especially something as purples and disturbing as Hannibal

God, that feels like a dream now. I wonder if they're just going all in with it this season and not caring about subtly

It really just faltered from existing in such a weird middle ground of super pointed and sharp satire (the Law & Order episode) and really big and broad parody (the ass-crack bandit) and that seems to be the cost of having to edit it down to 22 minutes. Like Todd said, seeing a longer producer's cut of this episode

I honestly wouldn't be at all surprised if Dino actually owns that outfit and walks around his house in it

If anything, I'd just say that this is a strong case that occasional hourlong episodes would be a real treat from this show

That's an intriguing paring, but I feel like the only way that would happen is to have Harmon write a midseason table-setting episode of whatever new show Simon is doing. Both are such strong personalities, and Harmon is so idiosyncratic, that nothing cohesive would likely result. That being said, I am more than

The first two or three seasons of House was truly like Law & Order: CI. Both shows were not perfect and could easily fall into the comfort of their procedural settings, but they were truly fantastic at warping that procedure to create enthralling psychological setpieces and were unafraid of embracing the asshole

Also, has Harmon's "People vs. Systems" ethos been so transparent as Britta saying that verbatim?

Such a whirlwind of drama

The best/most melancholy part of this episode was watching Abed slowly get assimilated into the meowmeowbeenz society and knowing what it was truly like to have "traditional" human interaction. "I'm making small talk." "I'm a one now. I'm just like everyone else." Heartbreaking stuff. It's subtle, but clearly Abed is
