Now I don't feel so bad about bailing on this show in the middle of the first season.

They should really go all in on the food porn. Give it its own website, gallery, webisodes, celebrity chef commentary, the works.

Ha, sucker! The one thing I can't stand about Aya Cash in this role is that puppy thing. It seriously makes me gag. She is so badass all the time. Why drag herself down with this faux-cutesy act.

I always felt the same way watching Brian Baumgartner on panels for The Office. His character isn't as complex as Lindsay but he was still very convincing.

What the hell is up with him anyway? Are his parents methheads or something?

I found my body letting out an involuntary evil laugh at that point, growing in power as he grabbed the booze and cigs and sauntered out the door. I had no control over it.

Fair point. But one thing I always remember with this type of story is we are all "controlled" by various factors a lot more than we'd like to think. This is more blatant. But perhaps just a matter of degree.

I think she said the myth was they stop when they enter the service area of the park, but same difference.

I can't be bad. I'm a human. Any actions I do are because my DNA and upbringing programmed me to do so.

Hodor. The best kind of door.

You're a robot too. Your DNA built you with just enough of an ability to simulate human behavior that you can attempt to reproduce, then just a few decades later you'll be decommissioned, your job done.

I'm still just shocked to see Agent Meechum not creeping the hell out of me.

I'm honestly just overjoyed you reminded me this is an 8 episode season. Here I was thinking ALL THESE CHARACTERS ARE HURTING SO MUCH AND I LOVE THEM AND THERE'S NO TIME AAHHH, but now…well yeah same thing but lowercase.

Ah, Stewart Syndrome, yes.

I'm going to be extremely sad if Gretchen's world does not expand beyond Sam now. If not Ben Folds as permanent client, other random off-kilter cameos that are equally fun - but that's a high bar to clear!

What if they were Jehovah's Witnesses that were merely pretending to be into Christmases, gathering clues and blending in to take down the holidays from within?

Hope you enjoyed! Personally I considered it quite worthwhile up through 5, at which point I wouldn't blame you for skipping to 8 to wrap it up :)

It's kind of a shame AV Club is too refined to use the obvious screen cap for this one.

Re-reading these discussions, I'm realizing there is unsurprisingly little discussion of "Porcelain God", so…let me complain about it a bit :P
