This was just a fantastic episode of TV. It took me right back to when this show was firing on all cylinders. A tightly plotted survival tale with real stakes (did anyone predict that the whole pod crew would survive the trip? I sure didn't.) Good character interaction but no time to dwell. And Clarke being a big damn…

The Rev is obviously a Juggalo.

But Gretchen isn't really this person. She doesn't want to sexually assault boys, and she's not attracted to them on any level. She's just going through the motions of what cult leaders do because she's chosen this identity for herself. It's a very silly story that I don't think we're meant to take too literally.

I don't think it's possible to transfer a cartoonish Kimmy character to the Justified universe without it playing out, tonally, like Enchanted. I will be curious to see if Gretchen continues to try to lead or whether she falls back into her more comfortable follower role now that she's in the clink.

I'm pretty sure we've seen them when Kimmy was still definitely a child. They have just chosen to use the adult actresses always (which is the right choice for a lot of reasons). For instance, there's a flashback to preteen Kimmy actually getting taken (with the Velcro shoes) and it's Kemper.

I think it's pretty funny, in both cases. Tastes vary.

I really don't think the show was making a serious statement about women who are criminals. I think it was interested in gender roles more generally, and just found a funny, relevant way to talk about them.

I loved this episode. All of the details around the FBI and Gretchen's living situation were so great, and Gretchen and Kimmy's talk managed to be thought-provoking along with the expected hilariousness.

Everything about what Kimmy went through is portrayed comedically, though. Her emotions about it are real, but almost every moment of this show is a joke. It stands to reason that Gretchen kidnapping a few boys for a few weeks (and explicitly *not* molesting them) would be played for at least as many laughs. Because…

Every time they turned in unison to yell at the child husbands, I died. I found the whole child husbands concept almost deceptively hilarious. It's so simple and somewhat one-joke, but it just kept getting funnier to me as they talked about gender roles (and as the boys themselves got more disgusting).

You're the Worst also had a character using TaskRabbit (with far less charming results).

It's a joke, though. The first 21 Jump Street movie did the same kind of thing, with Channing Tatum having trouble making friends in high school because he's too much of a bro. It's just a means to satirize shifting values. Of course, in real life, Channing and Xan would not be friendless losers. Pretty people almost…

It's stuck with me, but you have to admit the story is a mess.

I'm sort of drawn to stories about people trying to escape relatively banal situations, simply as survival tales. I like the idea of having to excavate a boring apartment, figure out all its quirks, make a plan, all that. It just seems so crazy to me that you could be truly trapped in a normal residence that isn't…

Also, David Cross is great, but if I have a choice between him and an expanded role for Josh Charles, well….sorry Dave, but you were never really in it.

We're in a bit of a sitcom renaissance right now (in my opinion) so being only my third or fourth favorite sitcom is still high praise.

I really like the Lisa Kudrow suggestion. Has she never been a quirky small-town denizen? Because it's so obvious once you think about it.

I liked the two episodes a night format, but it seemed like the day it was on kept changing, and that's death.

Doesn't he kind of disappear at the end? I think the implication was that he was going away, at least for a while. I do hope they get him for a guest appearance, as he was such fun. But I'd watch for D'Agosto, Mays, and Sheppard.

Zoodles are so good though.
