Any publicity is good publicity?
Good opening.
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Jealous Parker is making me laugh. And worry for the client (I would not want to be on the receiving end of a Jealous Parker).
Also, Hardison spotting the phony FBI badges made me laugh and laugh and laugh.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Rigor mortis, nice touch. (So to speak.)
Excellent opening.

I've totally given up on remembering they are supposedly in Boston, despite Elliot's hilarious rant about his day trip. They really needed to establish that the pharma company was in Cambridge to be in any way credible.
I know it's a nitpick, but dammit, get the cit(ies) your show is set in right!

well, there's the biotech company in Brighton across from the Doubletree Guest Suites there by the Mass Pike entrance.
That was a nice moment there at the end between Hardison and Parker.

Well and they showed the Longfellow bridge there before the last sequence, so it was kind of ambiguous where company was.
Mainly I'm grumbly that they aren't FILMING in Boston, where I might get a chance to see them in action. Especially since the state has done a lot to make it viable to film here (as opposed to when the local unions made it well nigh impossible).

Oh yeah, if she isn't watching it as we type, somewhere ita just got a major happy and doesn't know why.

Isn't fuzzy geography the norm on TV? Even for shows filmed in NYC and LA that take place in those cities?
There was a shot in one of the episodes this season -- I think it was The Inside Job -- where they were supposedly on a rooftop in "Downtown Boston", but based on the view I deduced that they must have been in Cambridge.

Oh sure. I'd just like to see someone get it right occasionally wrt Boston. Granted, I'm sure it's even more frustrating when they actually film in your city and get it wrong. I do give them leeway because they are filming in the wrong Portland. Mostly, I'm just venting.
