It has a sick title and a great lay out and you always seem to pick the perfect pictures for each post so that they supplement the writing but they also manage to make the blog as a whole look cohesive as you scroll through it. I am not watching the show but still manage to enjoy your posts because instead of watching the show as Chinny, I feel like I’m watching the show through your eyes—a very en-traz-ing experience!

I definitely don’t pay enough attention and then I can never figure it out at the end of the episodes. But I totally agree that this was the episode where we finally started seeing some of the backstory come together – which is like, thank god, because I was about to stop watching if every week was the same storyline.

I think you’re right that this episode illuminates an important legal truth: that crimes against children are treated more seriously than crimes against adults. Morally and legally, murder is wrong..but for some reason murder of a child is pure evil— I’ve heard in jail (like what happened to Kit in this episode), that child murderers are treated the worse by their fellow inmates.

As someone who hasn’t caught this show, what I’d like to hear from you is: Why should I be watching this? What is it that has you hooked? In your account of this particular episode, you seem to refer to a lot of familiar aspects of the show—what makes it stand out?
