I want a Norma for my very own. She's psychotically adorable.

This whole thing has the feel of a superhero origin story. I love it.

I have a tough time watching this show because Norman is so off-putting. He does creepy-crazy too well.

I love BCS's use of ambient noise to set a mood, from the courtroom scene in the first episode to the copying machine in this one.

Tell me about it. She represents so much about the world in which we currently live. I'll leave it at that ambiguous statement.

I was afraid the answer would be something like that. I'll stick to my misogynistic orgies, thank you very much.

What's a feminist grrl power orgy look like compared to your typical orgy?

Dammit, you could see the cameraman move in the reflected glass during that last scene of Jimmy on the floor crying. Ruined the moment for me.

Lol . . . I'm glad I wasn't the only one furiously trying to remember how many fingers Saul had during that scene.

One of my big worries going into this show was whether or not I could handle the Saul (Jimmy) character for 45 minute chunks. He might have been one of those characters who only work in small doses. Boy was I wrong. I could watch Bob work this character for hours on end.

Quite true. Hell, most of us know guys and gals who run a register at the local Quick Mart or Kroger who are self-important narcissistic assholes. That kind of thing is innate to the person, not their job or bank account.

There was also some digital makeup involved.

There is a lot to be said for gallows humor—it's been a coping mechanism for people who find themselves in dangerous situations throughout history—and not a single character ever evinces it. Weird as it is, the complete lack of yuck-yucks in the show is unrealistic.

I would have never thought the likes of Tuco could give me a warm 'n' fuzzy feeling.

Yup, I think I'm out. Sucks.

I remember watching a couple of PewDiePie's videos way back before he became popular, when he was just another random YouTube guy. As I don't follow this stuff, I'd completely forgotten about him. I was stunned when years later I became aware that he's now one of the most famous people in the world. I'm actually happy

That would only make the whole zombies' violation of thermodynamics too obvious, I think.

I think the reviewer likes the show as a whole too much to give any individual episode the rating they feel it really deserves. I can understand that, because Sleepy Hollow charms the pants off me despite my being meh about certain episodes or even a string of them.

The D- tone of this review doesn't match the given B- rating.

Breaking Bad was pretty much a straight up comedy in its first season, and it kept that comedic element throughout.
