Who the hell is Strindberg? Apparently theatre is a big gap in my knowledge.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Yeah, and I gotta echo everyone that heard about that and say "Pixley?" Even though the whole walking-and-talking? A bit tough to manage for me.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
"Pixley? Her name is Pixley?"

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
And I meant to echo whoever said they liked Ricky and Ron, cuz I do too. If they didn't mean to hire some guys who seem like mensches, they probably shouldn't have hired Handler and Jacott.

New York Magazine has a great interview with Stephen Colbert in this month's issue. If you read it, make sure you look at the last page--it's a list of Stephen's suggested talking points for both parties' candidates on the current major issues.
On Prayer in Schools: Democrats--There is no place in public school for God, no matter how you choose to define Him … or not define Him … or Her … or It … or Them … or … We? Republicans--The public schools need our prayers, because they’re sure not getting our money.

Somehow I pictured Dana in her room that night talking to her mirror or something in a voice going "Hi. My name is Pixley. My parents thought I was so sweet they gave me a name that sounds like candy." Not that I know anyone that petty or bitter. Much. But Casey is cute. And she's already coming in second to Danny anyway. That can do things to a person. And "Pixley" is empirically something to make fun of.

That was me, and I think the viewers weren't meant to *dislike* Ricky and Ron. I think it had to be set up that there was friction in the past, and a grudge (whether justified or not) on both sides, but they're basically a couple of guys who are pissed off that they got the shaft out of the blue and are now worried about their jobs.
This week's ep made them a lot more 3-dimensional, for me.

I agree. I would give Sorkin credit if he's able to keep them that way, since TWoP pointed out that some details about Ricky/Ron resemble the content of Sorkin's grudges against TWW writers.
