Oh my god William blew the lid on Elizabeth's prettiness, Phil's luck and their having kids!! Damn deathbed confession!

I think its interesting what they're starting to do with her this episode. Paige actually going overboard with the junior spycraft in an attempt to impress her parents is just the sort of development that is both believable and unpredictable. It just took them awhile to get her there emotionally.

Thats probably why they say best show on tv. It means currently. Not sure why so many people have a problem with a qualified statement that really isn't saying much

Current game of thrones is a parody of itself

There were just one too many glances between Phil and Henry before he went back in his room after they talked about the mugging

He was tearing up during the call to his mom

So then why hesitate to call it that? If in your estimation thats not hyperbole given the dire state of tv.

Do you think 'best show currently on tv' is actually really high praise? There's not much else going right now. .

This show has an emotional intelligence, a la Mad Men or the Sopranos. It doesn't need to be completely realistic, because thats not the point. The heart of the show is in the relationships between the people and their reactions to the (albeit somewhat incredible) circumstances they find themselves in and those…

"Its not all about length.

I'm thinking it's a little concoction he always carries on him in case he's ever caught that puts him down comfortably and without any whooshing and/or trickling

I can't get over those shoulders 😍😍😍

Philip planted the bug. Elizabeth was on forced-overdose duty

You gotta keep in mind the brutal realism of this show. Somebody pulls out a knife=somebody is getting stabbed. And getting stabbed can easily lead to death. The only way to be absolutely sure is to just take him out.

She detonated a bomb in the center of his life and he's just feeling around for his legs.

There hasn't been a more richly realized clergyman on tv since the Sopranos' Father Phil IMO

Well Paige loves to focus on the bad in any situation. She's a morbid person at heart like her parents

They're also both immigrants after a fashion. Seemed like they bonded a little over the ridiculousness of American culture.

Thats our Stanny

To be fair, his entire life has just become a nightmare so quickly and efficiently that I would probably be offering stunned silence and monosyllabic answers to people's questions as well.
