There are a few episodes where you can see that a romance is starting to bloom.paulytnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242198036084484844.post-8741069626340832112009-08-04T20:44:50.109-04:002009-08-04T20:44:50.109-04:00I really like this episode, and I enjoy all the sc...I really like this episode, and I enjoy all the screen time Enid Kent is getting. I wonder why she wasn't made more of a regular...and why Margaret didn't appear very much this time. Also, is it just me, or is there a definite sub-plot of a pseudo-romance brewing between Margaret and Charles? This time when she tells him to "get dressed" because he has undone his scarf is just too funny.Russellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242198036084484844.post-3960820617690098952009-08-04T03:47:12.590-04:002009-08-04T03:47:12.590-04:00Scarcity in the 'trenches' was another lon...Scarcity in the 'trenches' was another long-standing theme; it is revisited well here.<br /><br />The truck driver’s hardened, off-hand response to Sherman’s incredulity is a classic: “Yeah, I used to stay up nights wondering about [army snafus], but I was getting worry lines” (and I can't believe I missed the fact that it is Phillip Baker Hall- great call, rob!)<br /><br />We have seen crossword puzzles and Chicago spareribs receive rapturous attention, so no surprise that a mystery novel should be so devoured by the camp (a la the latest JK Rowling novel) <br /><br />Hawkeye and Winchester's edgy exchanges here drive home the point that it would take awhile before either surgeon could or would be able to take full measure of each other. This was one of the best dramatic subplots this season.What the Parrot Sawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039363570921658045noreply@blogger.com
