AV Club called Chris Cooper "Anderson Cooper." Huh.

I always end up grading the episodes differently than AV Club. I thought this one was solid, better than a B-. It may have been the first one where Jake/George didn't do something illogical or just outright dumb, although that scene in the Demoronschiltz (sp?) garage came awfully close. It focused a lot on Oswald,…

This episode starts with "Six Months Later," which brings us all the way up to October of 63. It's almost like the show itself wants to get on with things; Jake's hesitation to just take out Lee is the one thing that doesn't feel right.

Where are Kaylee and her mom living? I expected Mike to have gotten them into a better house but they appeared to be at the kind of pool that you see at an apartment complex or at a hotel.

The boss' quirks and pet peeves become everyone's concerns. Whereas the quirks of underlings are not tolerated. This illustrates the stark difference between Chuck's station in life, and Jimmy's.

I still think his whole condition is a big fake.

Tuco is the most amazing thing on television.

One of the giveaways is the way the character moved. He walks stiffly, not like a person looking to hide. So he's more of a ghost figure just kind of strolling through the house.

I thought it was Clayton creeping around the house, but it makes more sense that it would be the Yellow Card Man. And using him this way, as some sort of omnipresent spectre, is more effective than King's original usage, where the Yellow Card Man was limited to the area of the portal in Maine.

I can't think of too many shows, but the constant character deaths in Marvel and DC comic books have turned me off to those companies' titles.

Stephen King seems to have put way too much stock in whether Oswald was involved in the assassination attempt on General Walker, and the TV show is mirroring the stuff from the book. Apparently, King suggests, if Oswald doesn't try to kill Walker, then he probably won't try to kill JFK either. Maybe I'm dense, but I…

Virtually everyone named Natalie Morales is beautiful.

He let out a long, exhausted sigh when he got in the booth.

I've worked in corporate communications for quite a while and the biggest no-no is to bypass the higher-ups before engaging the public, especially with something so highly visible like a TV ad.

I love every character, every line of dialogue, every scene, and every plot line on this show.

Exactly.

The events in this episode came out of nowhere. If they planned on doing a global pandemic thing, why not introduce that concept into episode one? Instead, they started off with a couple of nice episodes and then wasted Episode Three on a light-hearted joke-filled romp. In light of what happens here, that seems…

Bill Murray. I guess I'm smirky.

That was mind-numbing.

People complaining about the character's motivation for accepting the mission — I guess I didn't have the same problem with it. Wouldn't any reasonable person want to go back in time to do this?
