Yay a thread.

This show is really, really goddamn good. Who was that who wrote the letter at the end, though? I'm still iffy with some of the lesser characters.

The English guy that the moody guy was accusing of setting Liao up.

Yeah I have to learn some names too.

It's a great choice for a period piece on a relatively small budget. It's all happening in the same location that is by definition roughly constructed in the desert and a there are clearly defined groups both working towards a goal and competing. Frank Winter is also a great lead, he is both unsympathetic and incredibly compelling to watch. It took a little while for me to warm up to the Isaacs but his chalkboard smackdown and her switchboard antics made them much better.

Heisenberg (the real one) being the unseen enemy is just too funny.

History spoilers:

It's kind of funny since the Nazi Atomic Bomb Program lasted like a month and was dissolved when they realized that it would be difficult and expensive.

Yep, definitely a midseason sort of episode. Pretty good, but I am a little let down by the episodic focus. I'd rather see them plant seeds for longer arcs than have little inconsequential ones like this. I guess there was a bit of that this time though, with the bees, mr. husky's girl, and obviously the end.

Fun episode, not crazy about the ending. Hopefully the finale is good. Any word on how WGN is feeling about the ratings?
