At the end of last season Paul unilaterally made the decision that they should get back together, then guilt tripped Lindsay into accepting it by preemptively breaking up with Amy. He's not really a nice guy.

He's always been great at showing how much it hurts to be the butt of every joke.

I think it's significant that of all the words Gretchen hurls at Justina, she doesn't use the one word that really would shock the audience and damage the therapeutic relationship.

I have a terrible, terrible fear that Vikner is going to turn out to be Morland's bastard son.

Came in late, but just wanted to highlight this exchange as candidate for line delivery of the week:

IMO, better than “It’s not like I’m going to go away any longer for four bodies, etc.":

This is relatively obscure, but… I was just discussing with some friends a fantasy cast for Ellen Kushner's novel Swordspoint, and I realized that Tom Hiddleston would be perfect for Alec. The onlu problem is that Alec is in his late teens, so he would have to shed at least 15 years.

I remember laughing hysterically at Tom Lehrer records when I was a kid, even though I understood very few of the jokes. But the way he said things was just so funny!

Actually, it's not an accurate picture, according to this:

It was dated even when it was made. The "tender years" standard (a young child is always better off with the mother) was replaced with the "best interests of the child" standard by about 1970. By the time the movie was made, courts did not routinely favor the mother, and joint custody was already becoming more common.…

When she threw back her hair, I burst out laughing. I wonder if I was supposed to.

I like Karen as a character, but I really don't like the actress. I wish she would quit ducking her head and mugging.

It was his uncle who munched the pepper. Baby Kaga bit into a juicy Granny Smith.

Oops! Yeah, I can't stand him, either. The actor has actual negative charisma, and the character is blandness itself. And the way he was introduced, he might as well have said "Hi, I've been assigned to be your new love interest."

My name for Ward from the beginning was "Strut 'n' Smirk."

Cartinelli! Seriously, people.

Persian Gulf sounds prettier?

True. Where I live, I basically never see guns, while I have to negotiate automobile traffic every time I walk out my front door. I think about car safety a lot, especially since my husband and daughter ride their bikes on city streets. But even in places where guns are common and are carried openly by people other…

Agreed!

Was I the only person who thought they should have consulted Alfredo about the car tampering? He's not Sherlock's sponsor any more, but he could still be an irregular.
