That everyone, myself included, is so surprised by this proves that all the talk about TV supplanting movies in the wake of Breaking Bad, Mad Men, etc., was a bunch of phooey.

Well, yeah. I also don't think that MOVIES ARE OVER just because there are a lot of Iron Mans in the US right now.

Last night's was the most conventionally TV episode of the series. It came at the right time--I needed to recalibrate after Got a Light.

Laura "Fuck you, Albert" Dern is incredible in this show. Every scene she's in is riveting. That tense two-minute smoking scene where Gordon and Diane are lost in thought, silently connecting as Tammie uncomfortably shuffles her feet around is the kind of thing rarely seen on television, Golden Age or not. One of my favorite moments of the series so far for sure.

And I still think about her interview with bad Coop and subsequent meltdown at least once a day.

I literally just came in here to sing Laura Dern praise. She must be one of the most underrated actresses of all time, she is just fantastic in everything she's in.

Indeed. Episode 9 was everything I thought it would be. It really put the story into motion. A lot of content in it.

I don't know if I should use spoilers when talking about the story or not since it would be fun to discuss this show in depth but I kinda don't like spoiler tags.
