For anyone who's interested, there's a copy floating around on a certain bay of pirates.

Tony Hale absolutely nails every scene he's in. I also realized this season how much better the show is when Michael Cera is on screen.

This may sound cheap, but I like to think of it as frugal. We are waiting until The Newsroom starts on HBO, then will subscribe to HBO for one month, allowing us to watch Game of Thrones On Demand as well as The Newsroom. Then we cancel the subscription after that month.

Four episodes into Season Three. It hasn't started quite as strongly as season two did, for me. This spy gimmick thing is funny and then it's not and then it is again. Wee Britain is fucking hilarious to me and I have no idea why. And the narration is bit much this season. Kinda taking me out of it at times.

Oh! And Bob Loblaw.

I thought the payoff to the spy storyline was fucking great.

Especially because of

I didn't click, just wanted to say that I'm happy there is a payoff. I figured there was one coming but you can't be certain with shows like this. :thumbsup:

That spy storyline is one of my favorite parts of any season. Theron really pulled that part off well.

One of my favorite moments of all this is very minor, but it just cracks me up.
Spoiler: show
After the failed wedding attempt of Michael and Rita, GOB does his fire trick, and his "walk on water" illusion. At the end of the show, during the "next time" part, GOB catches Tobias on fire (we do not see this), but Tobias apparently tries to jump in the pool (where Rita appears to walk on water) and you hear Tobias say in a very paniked voice "dear God, why can't I get in the water". It's little moments like that which make the show so great.

I love the payoff. 4 episodes essentially setting up one spectacular joke.
