Try again. Fail again. Fail better.

The best part of season 5 was the untold thousands of jabs at Simon's past coworkers.

It's fascinating how rewatches focus your attention. I'm approaching the end of my first re-watch, in which I kept a close eye out for the first appearances of Slim Charles and Cheese - characters introduced early who later turn out to be very important. And now I know that on my third rewatch I'm going to be keeping an eye out for Fat Face Rick. ("You kill Joe?... Didn't think so.")
Just finished my first viewing of the show, and I knew him only as Fat Shaq. The Co-op is one of many organizations that features a lot of recurring faces, few moments where they're addressed by name, and very little sense of their eventual importance.
