I think every single episode for Season 3 had something in it that just gutted me. There's some really, really good writing. Like, on the surface you could dismiss so much of it as melodrama, like the fake soap opera they keep watching on that sun porch, but given that there's some plot lines I go "eh" on, I think that they're very good about touching on the essential pieces of certain phases of human contemporary life. Unfortunately, there's just too much that I relate to right now, so I end up a gibbering mess over at least 3 of the 4 running plot lines. Le sigh. ;)
what's the name of the soap opera anyway? and what happened to the hamster show?
i wish they had put an actual episode of either or both of those on the extras, instead of that lame 'making of the promo' documentary.
same with 'invitation to love' from twin peaks.
oh, and my predictions for season 4: arvid becomes a necrophiliac, brenda's neighbour turns out to be gay (what a plot twist!), nate's still an asshole, keith and dave's love is almost destroyed by an ingrown toenail, claire converts her hearse into a landspeeder, and Rico gets a penile extension.
