I was glad to see Marcus back, even with that terrible plot line. I hope the demise of his political career is an opening for him to join OPA.

No, they're not required for every arrest, but I thought they were required if someone is being interrogated, which is what seemed to be going on when Olivia got there.

If you've ever heard the Hamm's jingle, you'll know it comes "from the land of sky blue waters…" (Minnesota) https://youtu.be/g0axXUeg8XY

I think Teti will be great. I've been fairly underwhelmed at the Mad Men reviews here (at least compared to Tom and Lorenzo's reviews at their blog), so I'm glad to see there's a change.

I watched JCS for a class and I remember the professor making an argument that the film was commenting on the present day when it was filmed, and the casting of Judas was a nod to the Black Power movement.

Yes, the timeline in JCS more closely follows the timeline in John's gospel. But John's gospel also has a more high christology, where the divinity of Jesus is more of a focus. The synoptic gospels (particularly Mark) tend to have lower christologies, where the humanity of Jesus is more evident. Thematically JCS

Yes, very likely.

It's like the writers don't know why the Loop is called the Loop.

If that's the case I'm hoping for some epic stunt casting for the judges' roles.

It might have been a ranch where deer are bred specifically for hunting—I know there are such things for hunting birds. Whatever the case, yeah, from what little I know of hunting it's poor sport to have the animals flushed out.

Having attended Jesuit schools for undergrad and grad degrees, I don't recall meeting anyone who wasn't a Jesuit priest (or in formation to become a priest) refer to themselves as a Jesuit. It's more common to hear that someone practices Ignatian spirituality (after the founder of the Jesuits, Ignatius of Loyola).

I was thinking more in terms of actual criminal charges that could be brought against her. Given that she's a crisis manager, I figured she could handle repairing her reputation if/when the story came out.

Marcus the community organizer would be awesome at OPA.

So Olivia is to blame because she's related to people who did bad things? I think that's taking guilt by association a bit far.

I'm wondering if she knows or suspects that Fitz has her apartment under surveillance.

I found that whole "I'm a Jesuit and not getting married again" thing to be ridiculously poor writing for a show that is usually good about getting small details right. If Prady was such a good Catholic he would 1) know how to navigate the annulment process so that he could remarry in good conscience, and 2) know

Juana d'Austria, and the Jesuits let her join as a scholastic but would not ordain her.

I still want to see a scene for scene remake of Mad Men, only with every scene from the point of view of the minority characters (then again most of the scenes are exclusively white people, so maybe just a bottle episode would cover it).

A recap on E! is confirming Charles did the voiceover.

I think the Un-Will was meant to show how memories can fade and become distorted, even memories of people we loved a great deal.
