Yeah. It was right after the Boston Marathon bombing; although I'm not sure how Coquilles, the "angels to watch over while I sleep" episode was any better. It was a lot more gruesome and graphic. Should have just taken a week off if they really didn't want to show a show about murder.

I would have understood if it were a school shooting, or some young child shooting SOMEONE somewhere, but I agree. There was no reason to pull it and replace it with another episode of Hannibal. It's a disgrace, because Molly Shannon is so great in non-comedic roles.

Well if you get your hands on the DVDs (or stream the full episode), the case of the week was EXCELLENT. It was my favorite of season 1, especially the joyous Christmas music amidst the carnage.

I remember him calling her "rude" in season 1. But I kind of hope she stays until season 3 (hoping we get one).

I'm glad they brought Freddie back in. As much as I hate her, I LOVE to hate her. (And after watching Ceuf on the DVDs, I realized that NBC made a grave error in NOT airing that episode. There was such a massive amount of plot development lost and a creepily hilarious Christmas celebration that they should be ashamed

They took their merry time between that question and the response… and I ate up every second of it.

They might be doing a musical STARRING the cast of the show! So get your tickets early.

The facts were these…

This episode moved me more than any episode yet. The lobotomy, obviously, was so cringe-inducing… but seeing the life drain from Bella's hands, her feet, her body, that gave me the eeriest feeling. Chills through my body. You'd think my mind would linger on the ending, but it lingered on HER ending.

My favorite subtle joke that I BARELY caught was during Abbi's commercial: When black Xs were being placed on all the non-white couples, a couple of the Xs were swastikas.

“Have I ever told you how I met your father? It was at a party.” The best line from this season so far.

And I once found a lucky penny.

How lovely to name your child after the place where you buried your secret pregnancy test. Can't wait for the spin-off "How You Got Your Name."

You think I can afford a Totorola, let alone SIX?!

Interesting, how we care about the rating, isn't it? (Hold on let me get some mustard.)

That's exactly how to watch Breaking Bad. In between each season as it aired on television, we re-watched all the episodes up to that point. So I've been through season 1 5 times now, season 2 four times, and so on. No, I don't have a problem.

To be fair, most of us binge-watched it, which hastens the perceived pace. Breaking Bad took place over 2 years but aired over 6, this show is moving and airing in about real-time, a year per season, as it would seem.

Even when it gets messy, though, it's way too neat and clean. His reign better start unraveling sometime in season 3 or else it'll be beyond willful suspension of disbelief.

Isn't Lucas only in for 3 years with parole? That means season 5 could be the nail in the coffin for Underwood…

A cross-over episode with Hannibal, hopefully.
