Rewatching the pilot: Josh got startled by the bear when he entered his office for the first time. I'm thinking Margaret got startled by the bear and was running away and into the glass.

This will be the first time I'll be jumping on the "praying for Netflix to pick up a show" train.

I think this show should live well on Netflix. They should keep the bleeping of course.

You're both granted full immunity.
*Magic hands*

Also, allow me to appreciate the writers' self awareness. Everyone has been speculating that Summer did it, so the show just threw it out in front of everyone and went from there.

Another howling moment : the singing of I will always love you.

NBC does not know a gem when it bleeps to completion.

Oh god that opening animation had me howling in front of my TV. Dear lawd please give this thing a second season to go along with The Good Place. Please!!

Small thing Erik: you have two wig reports up there.

I was actually thinking about the career of Holly Taylor the other day. I hope she has a great one but right now I don't know if Hollywood ever does roles with this kind of quiet young girls anywhere else, and I'm a little concerned if she would be able to find her way through the industry after this show wraps up.

The Mary Kay lady showing up at the door and Elizabeth's tense expression just made me love this show so much. only this show can just pick up a plot from the past without being jarring at all. Everything just gelled like a well-functioning mail robot.

I think overall the Kings haven't quite figured out how to deal with the freedom of streaming and the constraints of fewer episodes. Braindead also meandered somewhat during its run, and both lack the sparks in TGW. I hope they figure it out.

I was reading a discussion posted on Vox about this episode. I don't know what happened to those guys, including Todd, but they seemed to be missing so many details it's almost comical for them to be even "reviewing" the show.

Oh OK. So two years away still. Maybe final season then.

What's the timeline of this season? 85, 86? I was thinking the other day that they'll have to write Chernobyl in somehow, right?

I knew people have mentioned this before, but Holly Taylor is really becoming a ringer of Keri Russell… not that they look much alike, but the postures, mannerisms…

Last episode I was thinking she's a sexy version of Liz Lemon. Both are great.

I haven't finished the entire episode but I just have to come here and comment this:

Prediction: She took the shotgun off the wall and fired two warning shots, into Stan's head.

The two earlier moments between the Jennings's are soooooo nice. Frank Langella really should not be working them too hard.
