A few weeks ago, there was a Hamlet reference when Rebecca sent Josh soup with the note saying, "To sleep, perchance to dream." As another poster noted, that line actually refers to Hamlet's desire to commit suicide. When Rebecca dashes to the cliff near the end of this episode, I thought of Hamlet again, the…

I second that!

To add to the ones Shan and Whovian listed, I'd also add "Flatline," "Last Christmas," and "The Husbands of River Song" as really good episodes.

I know! Capaldi is not only a fantastic Doctor, he's also just a lovely person who has represented the show so graciously. Well, let's hope Twelve gets a glorious sendoff.

I'm with you—I enjoyed the Moffat era better, and I hope that over time people will come to see just how beautiful and thought-provoking his stories were (even if they weren't always well executed). I love Capaldi; he's my favorite Doctor, and I hope he knows that many people DO appreciate him, even if he isn't as…

"Another possibility is that maybe he's too much "like" Rebecca (as was underlined this week) which gives me a sense of "it's fairly obvious they're going to end up together"…. with Nathaniel and Rebecca, seriously, what's stopping them?"
Great point—it seems too neat, and if there ARE any obstacles now, they'll feel…

I posted this in one of the threads below/above, but I'm also starting a new thread with it here, because it's so good:

I think they're doing a good enough job showing how desperate he is for his father's approval. After his dad sneeringly (and loudly) demeans him for napping, Nathaniel/SMF lets out such a sad sigh that really shows how hurt he is. And when he lashes out at his coworkers ("Don't feel sorry for me; I feel sorry for…

Santino definitely had the best voice of anyone on the show, so I miss his singing, but I'm not missing Greg himself. It would be weird, though, if they don't mention him at all at the wedding.

And Hector! (Maybe he'll bring his mom!)

That song riffs on "Be My Baby," which always reminds me of Moonlighting and David-Maddie ( https://youtu.be/Kk8JS7XZh34 ). I got flashbacks to that dynamic when Nathaniel and Rebecca were arguing in his office ("You wanted to see me?" I didn't want to SEE you…."). I know Moonlighting might seem dated now, but…

Besides the parallel dad-trouble, pooping issues, and napping, Rebecca and Nathaniel both used and seemed to depend on the word "normal" (Nathaniel says he needs his juice-cleanse to feel "normal"). Also, it seems like Rebecca's hair color this season is getting closer to Paula's (as if they really are daughter and…

"But they'll probably have an oh-shit moment when they realize what they're really in for."
Maybe they'll parody the ending of The Graduate, complete with a Simon/Garfunkel-esque number.

"Intergalactic" by the Beastie Boys.

I wish Amy Adams had been nominated. The twist in Arrival is really shaky/hard to believe, but Adams makes it work. She's overdue.

FOTC! I've been comparing CEG a lot to FOTC, and I'd love it if Bret and/or Jemaine popped up in West Covina one day (that's totally a town that New Zealand's 4th most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo would tour).

With the slicked-back hair, he kind of looks like a grown-up Draco Malfoy, doesn't he? And when Rebecca says "engaaahged" and "outraaahged," she's like Hermione saying, "Wingardium LeviOHsa, Not Wingardium LeviosAAAH."

A poster on Reddit came up with fantastic theory (that also answers a question I had earlier in another thread, about the purpose of Sunil's character, now that Darryl is Paula's "best male friend"). What if Sunil was Nathaniel's college roommate? Sunil made a big deal about being a theater major, and he also talked…

Plus, the song/clip was parodying Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud" video, so the choreographer had to mimic certain steps/moves (if the dance was "underwhelming," it's because the original choreography was).

"I just feel like because season 1 was her just scrambling and season 2 was damage control, season 3 is going to be her being more cautious and reflective and overly careful."
