The Hutchinses are a great parody of/homage to Tarantino, especially Pulp Fiction. Two hit men sitting in a car, eating and discussing fast food and misusing Bible verses. And they practicaly recreated "I love you Pumpkin," "I love you Honey Bunny," (which Tim Roth was part of the first time around).

And some kind of architect-client privilege prevented him from telling Jessica who the client was for the already-built Midland building? How could anyone solve that mystery!

Danny really doesn't get "off the grid." Look out for the license plate of his stakeout vehicle in Episode 5.

No, it makes you a shonda.

And his eye doctor literally gets away with murder! Still, I think it works for that film.

And wasn't he the first to recognize the map of the woods all those years ago? These woods have always been his destiny.

I liked Frank's amended Miranda Warning, "You know what you did."

All work and no play makes Sam a dull boy. All work and no play makes Sam a dull boy. All work and no play makes Sam a dull boy. All work and no play makes Sam a dull boy.

Say what you will about the tenets of National Socialism…oh, that's what you will say about he tenets of National Socialism? Shut the fuck up, Donny.

It's interesting that one could believe "It's kind of ignorant to think everyone from a certain place share the same qualities" but fail to apply that critique to 300's depiction of the Persians.

Wolf Cola: The right cola for closure.

Good episode overall, but Jacqueline was a walking HIPPA violation. You can't browbeat employees into sharing private medical information, in front of her coworkers no less! And her pushback against Jane's skepticism makes no sense- the whole point of Jane's article is that this doctor's views are controversial; it's…

Mulholland Drive is also basically a reversed Wizard of Oz, with the "Kansas" scenes at the end instead of the beginning.

It's very No Exit. Which is probably lesson one of Existentialism 101.

Back to starting positions.

I still like it a lot but I agree that it feels more like checking things off a list. Like they were given five books and two outlines and instead of fleshing out the last parts of the story they're adapting five books and two outlines.

ANNOUNCER #1: And the Yankees take the field!

ANNOUNCER #2: What is with the Yankees? They look like they're having trouble running, they can't move!

ANNOUNCER #1: It's their uniforms, they're too tight, they've shrunk! They're running like penguins! Forget this game!

ANNOUNCER #2: Oh my God, Mattingly…

Especially with Sam having the equivalent conversation with Jorah about Jeor.
