I'm listening to John Macnamara and David Greenwalt talk about how their Profits differ from each other's.

Which, really, makes me wonder about other writer's Profits. Like, say, Tim's.

I'm surprised -- it's a way twisted show, and I'm not sure how I'd have reacted at the time, without having become acclimated to (and bored by) The Sopranos and other anti-heros. But I'm thinking -- he could be darker. Well, maybe not and get picked up, but now my appetite's been whetted. I mean, he could have caused more damage, you know?

Well, if it had gone to a second season, he was probably going to blow Joanne up in a phone booth. That's darker, no?

He might have, given more episodes. The final one was pretty dark.

I'm not sure Gail would have lasted too long into a second season.

You think the last episode was dark?

ETA: Oh wait. That was the episode where whatsherface kills her uncle. I see your point.

Since I usually watch them all together, it's hard to remember specifically what happened in which.

Yep. When he sent a Girl Scout to the office as a reminder.

I'm surprised that Joanne and Sykes lasted all that long. But I suppose the narrative framework required it. More squashing! Trample lives and hearts and minds!

Adds Profit to Netflix queue because not reading the whitefont is driving me crazy!

I was just so disappointed that he didn't buy Gail a new zoomy car in the finale. She really deserved one after dealing with mad scientist harasser and then having him boxed and shipped to China. Seemed a fair reward.
