Ah, that's why he couldn't picture going to church. Modern Detroit looks like post-apocalyptic Georgia.

For the duration of that sequence, I was trying to justify his abysmal crawling. I didn't come up with much. Don't skip leg day, I guess.

Ahh, true. Though she did make a decent weapon out of the fucking sheath, so that'll probably come back around.

-Daryl choosing a broken piece of pipe over DOZENS of giant cannibal-knives? That guy is like a rum-and-coke guy at a wine tasting.
-Carol really looked great at the tearful reunion. That zombie blood on her face must have been exfoliating.
-Judging from his revenge-bloodlust, this is going to be a

South Park is the only show I know that would use an 'every pair of underwear has shitstains' escalation to transition into a legitimate cross-dressing plotline.

-The church lady sketch showed it's concept too early. The church setting would make their behavior instantly unacceptable, so the stakes weren't heightened as they got progressively more crude and violent. The possession twist was bold, however, and I loved Key's off-hand

Music production seemed like the casual Mac user interfacing with Logic. I think the most impressive part was that they actually based the animation off the real program, instead of the silly interface you'd see on NCIS or something.

That's what I thought! It's so rare that you hear Sharon speak with gentleness or sincerity.

The 'Lorde' poster (Randy with makeup on his cheekbones and no mustache) really sold those scenes. The illusion is so slight, it's almost impossible to tell if people really buy it or if it's all in Randy's head. Which makes it so funny when they play it straight.

-Cartman whipping the toilet seat ("Oh it's just like at home!") is my favorite South Park moment of the past few years. Crude, alarming, hilarious.
-"Wendle?! Oh, grow up Wendy!"
-Stan fainting made me giggle, mostly because it didn't really work visually. The short design of the child characters doesn't really lend

-Cartman waking up and immediately craving pancakes got me.
-"Kyy-ya!"
-I love when Garrison is the guy that can't take another teacher's shtick. He packs so much resentment into his voice.
-"BEER IS ALL WHEAT!"
-Continuity was cool, I enjoyed how Wendy grilled Stan the entire episode. The way he gave up during the second

All those characters have to put away their pride and resentment to ask for the job. Compare that to Jack, who willingly follows his father's career path, but, because it's his own father (and Jack believes he earned the job through merit), wears his resentment much more openly.

-It's amnesia as a plot device in a show made in the 21st century. There's really no good way of handling it, because it's a dumb concept. The average person is well aware of how rare (and non-selective) amnesia actually is.

That's a damn fine True West allusion, AV Club. Right up there with that Colbert Report episode where the mini-interview/sketch turned into Waiting for Godot.

I'm basically positive Allison Tolman was put in the Supporting Actress Category to increase pageviews on the Emmy's website. Manic, outraged pageviews.

Henry Palooza and the Hidden Bank Fees

I enjoyed the Animus framing device in the first game, because it seemed like a fantastic basis for a video game series. The video game tropes in the machine were obvious but worked well, and plot-wise, you could just slap "SECRET TEMPLARS" onto pretty much any malevolent white people through history and pick up the

-A guy works at a park. The guy is gardening, as part of his job. An old lady (a patron of the park, someone the guy sees as a customer) asks if he is an "expert" on what he's doing. Seems like a natural "employee" reaction to answer in the affirmative. Not that the reality show's logic is inherently fair, anyway, but

-Lester and Malvo both killed someone during the events of episode 1, and both murders have been successfully pinned on someone else. Neither can rat on the other without being implicated, so neither can go to the police. This allows Malvo to mess with Lester as much as he wants.
-He doesn't kill Lester in the elevator

Jon Snow uses Amnesia…
