OK, have watched the first 3 Stumptowns. I like it. I love the tape that just plays whatever it wants at opportune moments. Very Good Omens.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I think Stumptown is getting better as it goes -- I figured it had to, with that cast! (I thought the pilot was fine.)

It's kinda hard to think Jake Johnson is an ex-con who might reasonably be suspected of murder. Although I don't really think we the audience are really supposed to suspect him...or maybe that's just me

I was enjoying Stumptown, but I thought the most recent episode was really boring. Although, I could have just been in a bad mood.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I'm enjoying Stumptown and all the nods toward 70's detective shows.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Really liking it too. In spirit reminds me of Rockford files. Same laidback toughness. Same deployment of breezy charm as weapon. Same kind of low key smartass.

But does it have the best intro theme song ever?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Or Thomas Magnum. They all have very personal relationships with their cars, too.
