Well. Not sure I like this turn of events, despite it obviously making Alan very happy. I keep thinking of Mulder and Scully sleeping together in season 2 (not sure how that would fit into the timeline, though, what with Scully being abducted and all).

I keep trying to dismiss the scene as some sort of dream sequence. It does have a dreamlike (and almost theatrical) quality to it. However, I don't think DEK's quite sophisticated enough to pull that off.

I like the idea of Alan quitting, or attempting to quit, in the next ep. Okay. If they portray it as both a reaction to the firm, the environment there (specifcally Lewiston), and his inability to deal with his relationship with Tara, then I think it could be interesting. I was going to say I wouldn't like it if it was just sort of an "I quit" moment of protest without any thought behind it, but Alan doesn't do those. Hopefully, we'll be safe.

Again with this ep. The editing. Although I suppose it's the writing as well. While the two main storylines both pertained to adultery, there was no intersection, no indication that they were even part of the same show. And then there was the Denny-Sally thing, which...was like five minutes long. They need to hire Joss Whedon to help them balance all these characters or something.

And no Brad :( But also no title sequence. Like, seriously. Editing problems. I'm concerned that the show hasn't even found a workable format yet.

And I missed the Arrested Development premiere.

No, I don't think the writers will leave at that, but Alan might try to.

And the show honestly has no structure. Right now I'm too tired to even go into it.

I'm glad Alan's threatening to quit next episode. That will at least shake things up, because there's honestly been no progression whatsoever within the firm.

Besides Denny learning how to use a computer.
