'Tears' Veep Rewatch Podcast Ep. 8 Reaction Post

-Dan Bakkedahl (who plays Furlong) is today's guest!

-"Succession is absolutely off the charts." Tim is RIGHT! Please watch it if you haven't already

-Jesse Armstrong wrote this ep! Rewatching it, it definitely has that signature Armstrong flair.

-"I will respond to this text message now or in seven months." I am JUST like Tim

-Lol them doing the signed Funko giveaway now? When was this announced??

-Just HOW many Veep cast/crew members are from Chicago or have had a past in Chicago?

-Okay Dan is HILARIOUS. His impression of Jeff Garlin is SPOT ON

-Roger Furlong just might be one of the best characters in Veep history. Talk about never missing a beat and not wasting anytime

-So Furlong was one of Mandel's favorite characters to write for....makes sense

-Awww Dan admitted that getting cast in the show changed his life

-It would've been interesting to see Dan's take on Mike had he gotten cast.

-I love how Armando kept his promise and cast as many people as he could if they didn't end up getting cast in the main ensemble

-OMG! Someone flew in to shoot, sat in their trailer for 15 hours then went back home, LMAO!

-I forgot that Dan and Will did know one another pre-show!

-"Are you one of Selina's gay dwarfs?" Such a great introduction line

-I LOVE how Dan acted confident towards everyone but always got nervous around Furlong

-Lyndon B. Johnson was famous for using the bathroom and not closing the door....disgusting

-Furlong was based on Dan's brother whose a Prosecuting Attorney,,, I love that

-Also Will was such a sweetheart...he was quite adorable

-The Will and Furlong relationship is so unfortunately hilarious in the most awful way. Since rewatching it I've been saying "LIKE WHAT, WILL?" to myself 24/7

-I agree with Matt in that by this time in the show, the audience is so used to insults that they aren't as surprising as it once was at the beginning of the show.

-"Backseat finger-fucking shitshow." JEEZ

-"She seems nice." Furlong on Dan ALWAYS makes me chuckle

-I love how Julia is always described as a warm, kind, and charming individual. It's clear that she's a great person who enjoys letting other people have their moment

-Roger's 'Can I have some water?' and then Selina demanding water as well...such a great improv trick, playing off status

-'Congressman No Jaw' was created in rehearsals by Julia and I love how she asked if he was okay with it first, very kind of her to do lol

-Also Julia's portrayl of Selina's emotional journey in this episode was absolutely amazing. I'd love to see her in more dramas.

-Mike trying to comfort Selina while she was crying was so sweet LMAO

-"I'm sorry for your tears. They suck." LMAO

-The scene of Dan asking for legal advice....such a great insight into just how clueless and scared he was of facing the consequences of his actions

-Interesting Matt is noticing overlap between this show and Succession, it's clear that the overlap is there and as Succession continues I cannot wait to see if there are any others

-WILL WANTED TO HOOKUP WITH SUE? LMAO WHAT????

-Not the 'Cow eyes' insult 😭 That was BRUTAL, Reid

-Mike not having a Twitter account...with his profession....my god

-Dan getting a promotion and IMMEDIATELY moving furniture/bossing people around and getting a press release ready...hilarious

-Furlong being inspired by Malcolm Tucker from 'In The Loop' I can see that! I can only imagine how chaotic a scene between Tucker and Furlong would've been

-Wow! Dan was originally cast in 'In The Loop' but had to drop out last minute to do another movie

-I love how the cast was always so warm and generous towards their guest stars, you can tell this really helped welcome people into their circle and broke the ice

-Someone named Norman Reedus won one of the contest dolls? No way it's the real Norman lol

Overall: A good episode! If you're a BIG and I mean a BIG fan of the show, you'll definitely enjoy listening to this episode. Personally, hearing Dan speak about his time on the show and how he approached Roger is inspiring me to watch all of his episodes to notice the little things he brings to the character. Crazy how this is the final episode of the first season already, seems like yesterday when they announced this would be happening. I think I might attend the live event just to see what happens for old times sake and to see what new special guests they have in store.

'Baseball' Veep Rewatch Podcast Ep. 6 Reaction Post

-The opening clip of Hilary Clinton giving the Russian Ambassador a reset button is hilariously awkward and yes, VERY Veep-ish

-Damn, this episode was filmed a decade ago...that's insane

-I really wish they'd just improv the introduction instead of reading the script. It's so awkward lmao.

-Tim said that this episode was filmed on the day they were filming the podcast ten years ago but mentioned it was Halloween time? Are these episodes being recorded ahead of time?

-The entire week of shooting the craft services table ONLY had candy and I understand Tim's small frustration with it. As someone who had to direct people with candy and soda in their systems, it is NOT fun.

-Also...Arvin is kinda cute...? Is he single (asking for a friend!)

-Aw, the cast and crew often got seats to Orioles and Ravens games. I bet those games were fun!

-Tim suggesting they hang out at the Executive Boxes during one of the games because eventually someone would recognize them and invite them up is hilarious, it's even funnier when his plan actually WORKED and someone did recognize them and invite them up!

-This advertisement for Postmates is reminding me how much I hate Postmates

-Forgot how much I enjoyed this episode, It was such a simple concept yet the writers, cast, and crew pulled it off so effortlessly.

-Tim: 'Dan's in the backyard....busy-cocking his way around' LMAOOO

-'Food-nominal' was such a hilarious yet revealing line of just how witty Dan thinks he is and his (slight) obsession with puns??

-I love that they're shouting out the graphic department. They're so integral to creating the look of the show world and they hardly get their props whenever actors speak about the show.

-I forgot there was a 'When Harry Met Sally' reference!!! (That is one of my favorite rom-com's of all time!)

-The scene of Selina telling Amy she's pregnant was such a great reflection of just how close they were in the beginning seasons and how much Selina relied on Amy. It is sad that the later seasons absolutely wrecked the relationship between the two.

-The photographer character was so hilariously annoying.

-'Comedy doesn't have to be clever to be effective' Great advice from Matt Walsh

-The long shot of Jonah seeing Mike and Mike trying to hide is absolutely HILARIOUS

-Quick Question: If Gary's parents were living back home in Alabama, why would he need to take a train to celebrate his father's birthday if it sounds like he isn't in DC?

-I do appreciate Matt talking about how the characters had some fort of a friendly relationship with other people in the industry. I do wish we could've seen them interact more with other people.

-"If you ask boring questions, you get a boring answer." Such a great deflection from Mike that shows he's actually somewhat decent at his job and good at deflection (when need be)

-An advertisement for Raycon? I wonder if they know who Ray J is lmao.

-Ahh....the scene of Dan and Amy shopping and Amy sneaking to get the pregnancy tests. The memories.

-"Well my first thought was, well there goes your figure." Ugh, so Dan DID NOTICE HER FIGURE!

-Matt acknowledged that there were common comments about Amy's body shape...interesting.

-So THIS is the first episode where the scripts were being written and edited while the show was airing.

-So the gas leak was created by the writers on the fly to keep Selina in the room with the other politicians. Originally, it was supposed to be a terrorist attack but the writers realized it would've been impossible to do.

-"Fuck the patriarchy!"

-Arvin is so awkward and so witty, I'm starting to like him

-And no, white men are not the victims lmao

-I don't know how but I need to get that 'Fuck weasel' line into 'For Once in My Life' since Dan and Amy have a son

-The 'repugnant' and 'pregnant' line mishearing was so clever yet so hilarious

-Also, Amy trying to figure out where that kid hid her pen cap is hilarious

-Ah, Jonah was originally supposed to confront Amy about what she and Selina were talking about on the balcony. That would've been interesting to see.

-I agree with Tim! I wish they would've made a compilation of all of the deleted scenes. Even though they seem to be character-oriented, it would've been amazing to see.

-The Orioles player that appeared on the show and Tim went out to drink with after shooting the episode being a Trump supporter and calling out Hollywood...is pure comedy

-Ah! So the scene of Selina talking to the players was 100% real! Arm just told her to go up to them and talk to them in character.

-When Gary hears about the pregnancy it's so cute! His sheer joy and excitement were truly adorable.

-The brief scene of Sue coming up with a story of how Selina and Ted possibly getting engaged for the press is just a brief yet important showcase of how necessary Sue's character is

-"Holy shit Leon West is here...he's like gay porn, he's everywhere.'" Such a great line

-Also, this episode made me REALLY hate Leon

-Dan attempting to network with an eight-year-old...absolutely hilarious and showcases just HOW he'd be with kids in the future

-WHY didn't we get more of Dan playing the guitar?? I don't know how it would've worked out or been worked in but god I would've loved to have seen it.

-Yes, Dan immediately jumping to 'So we're looking at a wedding' after finding out about Selina's possible pregnancy shows just how intuned Selina and Dan's train of thoughts were in the earlier season.

-Selina's line 'Or a suicide, I don't know which at this point is one of my favorite lines EVER

-The clear cup that Selina has to use for her pregnancy test was added during rehearsals....the brilliance!

-I loved the moment of silence Selina has with herself before she takes the test. It really puts into perspective her preparation for this potentially life-changing event that could not only impact her entire life but her career as well.

-I knew it! Gary whispering to Selina that she was pregnant while the kids were singing to her was modeled after Bush being told about 9/11.

-"You are very, very pregnant." Oh Gary

-It's interesting that Tim pointed out how this is one of the few credit scenes that doesn't offer insight or more information about what to expect from the next episode.

-ANNA ON THE NEXT EP! ANNA IS ON THE NEXT EP! ANNA IS ON THE NEXT EP!

-Sorry Matt and Tim, I'm not hearing ANYTHING you're saying because ANNA'S ON THE NEXT EP!!

Overall: In short, this was a pretty good episode! Matt and Tim kinda need to work on staying on track of the synopsis a bit but I'm sure that'll come over time. It was nice hearing just how much rehearsals impacts what is actually shot and seen on television, especially in this episode. To me, this episode had a ton of great little moments (Dan playing the guitar, talking to the players, and Selina peeing in the clear cut) that it's even cooler knowing that those are things they added after rehearsals. No lie, I'm just SO HAPPY hearing Anna's going to be on the next episode!! I mean, I had a feeling that she would be but my god, I am way too excited to see her again! Also, they completely ran out of time and didn't answer audience questions lmao. I wonder when they'll do it again.

'Nicknames' Veep Rewatch Podcast Ep. 5 Reaction Post

-How I wished they kept the original title, 'Dan Dates Jonah' for this episode.

-With the brief mention of Chick-Fil-A, I do kinda miss it (the fries mainly)

-Yay for Reid Scott! So happy to see him doing well.

-I'd be so intimidated to improv in front of anyone (especially Armando !), kudos to them for pulling it off during their auditions!

-Reid saying Baltimore 'Baltimore sucked' during the Rolling Stone Oral History of the show was HILARIOUS. I too am brutally honest.

-God, I cannot take these advertisements lol.

-Great catch on Tim realizing that the scene of Selina falling asleep on C-SPAN was to solely set up that Selina is also the President of the Senate.

-The scene of Mike thinking Selina's still in the chair and getting scared when she screams his name is hilarious

-The trivia being wrapped against pieces of bread is very weird...? Wasteful....? And also very unnecessary...? So that's interesting...

-Also Reid being a MASTER at trivia is cool lol

-Word of advice from Reid: Always ask! The worst thing they can say is no.

-Justice for Producer Arvin! He's trying his best (even if that bread game was very fucking weird)

-And Reid saying 'bro' is hilarious

-"Don't come at me with Brady Bunch trivia.." Hahaha okay then Reid, I NEED to know his favorite character lol

-Tim is me getting frustrated with trivia games

-The nicknames were absolutely iconic...I wish I could've been in the room when they came up with those lol

-Political staffers going to heavy metal shows after work to blow off steam sounds hilarious. I want to visit some just to see the vibes and how they act (even though it sounds similar to how they were acting on the show itself)

-I loved how they mentioned Gary picking up Seklina's bag when she drops it. JLD and Tony rehearsed that and it translated so well on screen

-Their British accents are so cute hahaa

-The 'If I were President' line from Selina and Amy immediately shutting her down was such a great moment! Apparently, there was more to the conversation but they cut it for time (sadly) but I would've loved to have seen it, it also shows just how unfair Selina finds her entire situation.

-Makes sense that they (even JLD) didn't know that Selina would become President, it was such a great twist in the show and I wonder how long the writers were sitting on that idea

-"You know why you can't find their music on iTunes? Because they're not for FUCKING SALE." Was HILARIOUS omg, Tim kinda made up that line!

-I need to know Ian Martin's band name. (Apparently, Craig Ferguson was in the band too??)

-Poor Tim headbanging so hard in the concert scene that his neck locked up

-There was a wardrobe mix up so Reid wore his own clothes during the club scene and actually got them drenched with beer but ended up getting them replaced for just asking is amazing

-What Tim is saying about 50% of what you do getting cut is so painfully true. A GREAT writing teacher once told me 'Be prepared to kill your darlings'

-There was a monologue cut about Dan talking about the process of who he picks and chooses to pursue to get information from is VERY interesting, I would've loved to have seen it.

-The shipper in me wonders just HOW MUCH Dan and Amy content was cut throughout the show, I really do.

-The more and more Reid talks about the cut monologue, the more I want to see it.

-'She's a classic narcissist' Reid on Selina, the only right way to classify and describe Selina Meyer

-The framed photo of Tom Hanks still sends me lol

-Julia did trip on paper! That was so hilarious omg I need a gif of it

-"She's constantly getting fucked up from things that are her fault." What a great way to describe Selina, Tim!

-I am VERY interested to know more about Veep Beta and see a show of all the cut scenes/storylines.

-Ahhhh so the setup of the croissant line came from rehearsals! This goes to show just how great rehearsals are!

-I see Matt is rocking his Colbert shirt! I want one hahaha

-Also Reid's impression of Selina's hand movements is shockingly good...just how many impressions does this guy have under his sleeves and when can we see them?

-Mike is better than his job than people think! But c'mon Matt, no way on earth he's better than Amy lol

'You have put us into a salad spinner of fuck!' Great line!

-'Reid's Baltimore townhouse that he wouldn't share with Tony' lol I need more info on this cause HUH

-Hahahaha Reid was playing Fantasy Football at the time and that's how Anna improved the line! A genius she is!

-And Tim calling out Upstate New York was solely for Reid, lol

-"Poor Dan, Poor, Poor Dan." Yeah Reid, Poor Dan

-And great point! The lighting changed drastically after the first few episodes, I noticed this during my most recent rewatch

-JLD pushing Selina's meanness during her obesity rant is very interesting but it makes sense to the character. As much as we like the idea of JLD being president/veep, she is playing a character and Selina is mean

-The amount of Britishisms in the script is amazing, I need to go back again and see how many I catch lol

'We had so many changes on this show..every five minutes there was a change' Lol, that's production for ya!

-'It was always you and me, and Anna freezing our asses off in the cold' So cute but I'd get annoyed easily cause I HATE the cold

-Matt "I just said the line, I didn't know what it meant." Me 24/7 while acting

-"I don't feel like enough people saw 'Venom: Let there Be Carnage'....lmaoooo c'mon man, at least he knows dcnsjdsj

-And Reid's playing a cop...again in the upcoming Apple Tv show, 'The Afterparty', and Sam Richardson is in it as well!

-And bummer, they didn't get to questions for this ep! Bummer, I sent one in lol

Overall: This was a good episode! Tim and Matt were kinda all over the place in regards to sticking to the episode and what actually happened in it lol, I think with time they'll straighten it out. It was VERY nice seeing Reid though! He's looking and sounding good and well so that's nice to see. The shipper in me does wish they spent more time talking about that mini argument Dan and Amy had before Selina votes regarding the bill. That was such a great moment between the two and I would've loved to learn more about the rehearsal process for that and his interpretation of their relationship at that time...sigh, perhaps next time! And we never got a follow-up to the iconic 'Kick it down the line' story! PLEASE SOMETIME CAN WE GET THE FULL STORY! And yes, Matt and Tim, please have him back soon. If you did listen/watch, I'd love to hear you guys' thoughts.

'Full Disclosure' Veep Rewatch Podcast Ep. 7 Reaction Post

-ANNA CHLUMSKY 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾ANNA CHLUMSKY 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾!

-The worst thing I've ever done will never EVER be revealed (even though it's not that bad lol)

-Glad that they're acknowledging the awkwardness of starting off the podcast. It's definitely difficult to start a podcast, especially on a television show, but Matt and Tim are doing a good job so far.

-I agree with Matt on enjoying seeing the personal lives of the characters. I've always loved getting a peak at the character's lives outside of the office and wish we could've seen more of this in the later seasons.

-Aww the entire cast convincing Tim it'll be okay to visit his pregnant wife during an emergency is so nice. You can tell that experiences like this really bonded the cast.

-ANNA! SHE'S HERE!

-THAT LAUGH! I missed her so much y'all have no idea

-Matt and Tim introducing Anna as being incredibly talented and telling her just how LUCKY they are to have her on. FINALLY, SOMEONE SAID IT!

-Also, Anna taking the time to remind people HOW to say her last name. (It's Klum-ski). I will never forget that Mandel said he just refuses to say her last name. It's truly not that hard

-Interesting!! Anna compares Amy to a teenager! Says that Amy has the confidence of a teenager who thinks they know it all. Saying this definitely adds to depth to her character and the decisions she makes

-Her SAG Award in the back!

-Also all of the books in her background look SO interesting.

-ANNA MENTIONED 'HACKS'! We love a 'Hacks' reference/stan

-Anna fighting for Amy to not be coined as an assistant.

-Anna was made an honorary Chief of State by an association of Chiefs of Staffs!! That's amazing and goes to show just how amazing her portrayl/performance was.

-Tim and Matt's genuine enjoyment/excitement of Anna just being present is so adorable.

-Anna writing 'Can I please work with Armando again?' in her journal is just so beautiful.

-"We're gonna have to change the name from Anna to Amy because we want you to play the part." Ah, Armando! Such a sweet line.

-I love how Anna talks about Arm's commitment and directness in getting her the script and ultimately casting her. You can tell that she has so much love/respect for him and vice versa. I hope they work together again in the future

-I missed Anna's laugh so much, this really is great!

-Anna had the flu during rehearsals for the first episode! (Before flu shots as she notes)

-I love how Laura Schiller (the Chief of Staff that helped Anna prepare for the role) described being the Chief of Staff as a firefighter.

-Why are we being reminded that Amy married Bill? It's too early to mention that and I honestly prefer to not think about it. (Or the entire last two seasons).

"There's a lot to talk about there." Anna on Amy and Bill's relationship? Say more, Queen! I need to know WHY that idea even was pitched and taken seriously. Also, Matt mentioned that it was a weird arc...glad someone agrees lol.

-This 'Brass Eye' show their referencing sounds very interesting. Has anyone seen or heard about it?

-"Well that's great news!" Dan's sheer relief at Selina's miscarriage shows just how much of an ice-cold asshole he is and him doubling down on it shows how big of a one he is

-Quick question? Why are they discussing the episode without Anna? That seems a bit odd?

-"Secret as in shut the fuck and Service as in you work for me, so shut the fuck up!" What a great line

-Classic Arm Bit I Never Noticed: Everytime something gets knocked over and someone goes for it, they never get help

-Also Mike dropping that box is hilarious to me. I've rewatched that scene back to see that several times

-There's so much that does happen in this show that after rewatching the show for like the 7th time, I started picking up on things I didn't before

-Again, why isn't Anna around to put input in on this episode? I would've loved to have heard her perspective on this ep

-Watching them try to remember what happened in the episode when they have literal papers that describe what happens in the episode is painful lol

-Hold on, Hold on....there was a scene where Amy 'slides' up to Dan in the pilot....and it was cut? WAS THE SCENE EVER SHOT? WE CAN GET IT PLZ

-The short-lived suicide pact was absolutely hilarious, especially given just how quick Dan was the act like he had no interest in being a part of it despite being the one to suggest it in the first place

-The scene of Gary trying to resign was so heartbreakingly adorable

-It's amazing how much Selina says without saying anything at all. In a field like politics, it's not unusual that there are things that need to be said that can't really be articulated out loud.

-I think that the scene between Selina and Amy towards the end shows just how fucked up their relationship was in the beginning seasons no matter how close they were.

-Anna describing herself as a 'Nerdy Actor' is so cute

-Anna describing each scene in the early season as 'plays' is a GREAT TAKE! So much happened in these little scenes back then.

-I'm so happy Anna mentioned this! Amy could've destroyed Selina with all of the dirt she's said/done to her if she really wanted to.

-Side Note: They all looked SO YOUNG during the suicide pact scene with Selina in the office....poor Dan, Amy and Mike looked like scared little puppies

-Also Gary delivering the tea during the whole office scene was hilarious

-"Peep ya later!" Such a cute Mike line

-It's interesting that Anna cites Dan as her biggest competition and has to take down some of her boundaries in order to tolerate working with Dan. I think we all kinda know this but it's interesting hearing this from Anna

-Tim's sheer excitement for 'Inventing Anna' is super exciting.

-Anna also finished filming a movie for Peacock! I'm pretty sure it's the horror one.

-Arvin is getting cuter and cuter each episode...I see ya Arvin lol

-It's been like three episodes and they still haven't answered any questions lmao.

-The next episode is about the Season 1 Finale already? Jesus Christ this is going by fact.

Overall: Not enough Chlumsky for me! On a positive note, it was SO nice seeing her warm, bubbly, and affectionate personality on my screen again! Hearing her articulate her thoughts on Amy and the show itself is always nice and I loved how a lot of the conversation was her showering Arm with all of the praises he deserved. I do wish that they actually reviewed the episode with her. It was nice hearing her commentary on two scenes but I was looking forward to hearing her thoughts on the episode as a whole. Out of all the guests, Tim and Matt were practically GLOWING whenever Anna was on screen! That isn't to say that they didn't enjoy the other guests but you could tell Anna's bubbly personality is so well received by the entire cast. I am a little sad we didn't get to dive deeper into the few small Dan and Amy moments with her in this episode, I would've loved to have known how the whole scooting thing from Dan came from rehearsals. Also, I NEVER want to hear the fact of Amy and Bill marrying one another again until they get to rewatching the final season, it was painful enough living through it and I do not want to hear about, lol. Since we're soon entering the second season I am intrigued to know who will be coming onto what episodes? I do think we need Sufe Bradshaw to join for a few episodes soon. Interested to hear what everyone else thinks about the episode.

[casliyn]

'Chung' Veep Rewatch Episode Reaction Post Ep.4

-God bless the audio person's heart but Tim's mic volume in the first few seconds is bothering me.

-If Matt couldn't be there, why couldn't they just do this over Zoom? Lo

-Pete Grosz (Sidney Purcell) is on this episode! As much as his character annoyed me, Grosz performance was excellent!

-Lol, I'm assuming the audio will remain the same the entire episode. Oh well

-Interesting how Sidney is one of Tim's favorite characters on the entire show, you can tell that he really enjoyed Pete's performance

-"I got a niece but I FUCKING hate her." Oh man, Sidney was DARK so early 😂

-Oh wow!! Randall Park and Tim Simons were in one of the first HBOGO commercials before being on the show together! Hollywood truly is a small place.

-Speaking of which, we need Randall on this episode SOON!

-Anytime they do these ADs I can't help but laugh, they're so awkward lmao

-Cut Dan line: "He's very sexually charismatic, don't ya think? Or are you still not able to look at men like that." (Him about Danny Chung to Amy)

-I forgot about Danny Chung and that damn tank story...god the annoyed faces everyone made when they heard him start it was always hilarious

-I WISH they recorded those rehearsal sessions! (I know that they released the footage of Hugh and JLD rehearsing the kissing scene in S5 but god, those rehearsals sessions sounded amazing.)

-Sufe Bradshaw deserves more credit for the physical comedy she was able to do at times. She was hilarious.

-"You're not even your Mom's favorite Jonah, Jonah!" was such a harsh yet simple yet iconic line, completely forgot it was in this episode!

-Ted!!! I miss Ted! He was too funny

-Selina's list of exes are impressive. Makes me want to rewatch the show again because they were all hilarious (Ray was the funniest for me though.)

-Interesting that Danny Chung's birth location storyline was influenced by Donald Trump accusing Barack Obama of not being a US citizen. I was so young when I first started this show that i didn't put two and two together at the time lol.

-Matt say's if he could've had any guest star upgraded to a regular role, he'd choose Chris Meloni's, 'Ray' and i agree! 'STAY SMALL, SELINA!' still sends me to this day

-Tim makes an excellent point in saying that he cannot imagine the show without Kevin Dunn, Gary Cole, Sarah Sutherland, Sam Richardson and Clea Duvall (people who started off as Guest Stars and became regulars) and I agree!

-Jonah's casual shorts were so terribly ugly lol

-Love how Tim points on the darkness of the scene between Dan, Amy, and Sidney, I believe this was one of the first few times we (and Dan lol) saw Amy's inner darkness come out

-"I'm going home to get fucked every which way."

-WHOA! Pete thought that Dan and Amy hooked up in this episode...very interesting take.

-Confirmation for you Dan and Amy fans! Matt says Dan clearly liked Amy romantically by this point

-The original name of Episode 5 was 'Dan Dates Jonah' and Reid will be the guest for the episode! Can't wait!

Overall: Great episode! Enjoyed learning more about Pete and his thoughts/experiences of playing someone as despicable as Sidney Purcell. I do wish they could've dug a bit deeper into the dynamic between Sidney and Dan; those two had a number of scenes together and I would've loved to have heard what rehearsing those scenes were like and learn of any cut scenes between them. I do wish they answered a few more audience questions!

As always I'd love to hear you guy's thoughts if you watched/listened to the episode or this post in general!
