How often are my titles non lame?
This is the sort of almost trope that One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest got going.
Nurse Ratchet is three people...
I have some expertise here, well, I'm not *that* kind of psychologist, but, I know some stuff through osmosis from my colleagues. No seriously, I do know some things.
A couple of great Star Trek actors this week.
Pop culture in Australia stopped in the 70s.
Steve tells us about North by Northwest.
This is a sort of odd episode.
I like the 70s angle of corrupt but also inept federal agencies, Watergate break in anyone?
Jim has some good lines.
The goons, hired goons, are great this week.
I think our main character hangs out with Joy and the rest of those jet setters at the Hotel California. (Yes I can always find a Mad Men reference, much like Steve can always find Columbo reference and Jon just knows plane crashes).
We don't say many of the main characters this week.
A bit of behind the scenes this week, I didn't edit out our pre show banter!
Great guest star week.
Oh I wish that I had Jesse's girl.
BUS CHASE!
These people are like the jet setters in that Mad Men episode.
The difference is that the people in that Mad Men episode had some class. These people just have some crass. Thank you.
I feel bad for J's parents, and his dog.
By the way, that was some good dog acting.
I get the idea J's parents would be Holocaust survivors. It's subtle, but I think it's there.
PIZZA HOUSE!
We get more David Chase and the mob.
Yes we've been away, Jon and I (oh and Jon's mother...) went to Montreal, where I watched this one.
RITA MORENO!!!!!
HOCKEY!
Rita won an Emmy for this episode, and you can see why.
Dunno about the high class call girl trope.
Some truly great guest stars this week.
We also get to see more of Dennis's home life.
Again, the show takes a rather neutral look at sex work. I don't think it's presented as 'good' but it isn't presented as 'bad' either, which is a hell of a thing.
Some shout outs to Canada this week, including the Ottawa Otters, a team with just as many Stanley Cup banners as the Ottawa senators.
There are four 'that's a wilco's' in this episode. When I say 'episode' I'm talking about roughly the first hal...
