I liked the episode. I think I just like getting hit with anvils.

t drops an anvil on Sean

t follows it up with another anvil.

I think the thing I didn't like about this ep is that almost nothing in it took me by surprise. It all felt cliched, as well as heavy handed.

Catholicism is rather clichéd and heavy handed. Loved beth's note of taking on the brother's sins too.

Speaking of which, where is Jeff? Is he around anymore?

I checked in on him when we were having hurricanes because he is in Florida. (Jeff and family were fine) I'll drop him another note and see if he is up to the task!

I'm just a half-assed CS major.

Heh. Betsy has Lost half her ass. hey it's early

I'm with Lee. I thought this was the weakest ep so far. However, a weak "Lost" ep still keeps me interested.

BTW, upthread: Walt mentioned FIRST that they were Korean and he corrected Michael (I think) a few eps back. But like I said, I thought it unlikely that a couple would be spending time (and I'm wondering if they were LIVING there) in Australia and not even know how to say "do you know how to speak Korean?" in English.

Walt mentioned it first, but he wasn't correcting Michael. Michael asked him where he learned to brush with aloe, and he said the Korean lady told him.

Yeah, this ep was fairly weak, which leads me to say with conviction that Veronica Mars is, indeed, better than Lost. Not that I don't love both shows.

You know what? I want a Walt episode. That would be neat. He's obviously a very cool kid.

VM is not better than Lost. I like VM a whole lot, but VM has had weak eps too. So far, VM has not produced anything like "Walkabout."

When it does, maybe I'll revisit your opinion. :-)

Well, it'll probably be a Michael and Walt episode. Which still needs to happen, so we can find out what Michael was doing while not being Walt's daddy.

I think VM is of a far more consistent quality, episode-by-episode. I don't think any of the weak eps have exhibited the kind of weaknesses we've found in Lost episodes.

I definitely disagree here. The computer geek ep was just NOT GOOD. I was entertained by it, but eh.

And last week's ep was quite entertaining but had logic flaws you could drive Air Force One through.
