"If it worked on guacamole it could work on my mom!" I'm excited for the rest of this season!

Great analysis, as always! I so loved you speaking up for acquiring physical media! I remain an unashamed DVD/BluRay collector -- for one thing, if a streaming service drops one of my favorite shows, where does that leave me? It was between the previous episode and this one that we original viewers officially learned that Santino Fontana had really left the show, so it doesn't really count as a spoiler at this point. The creators remarked that they believed in the improv principle that you take what you're given and make it seem inevitable & right (the "yes... and" idea), and so they built the story such that Greg leaving town was absolutely the right thing to do.

[Sorry... 2 posts feel more readable than one marathon one.] It's cool that you compared Santino vocally to Sinatra, because of course "It Was a S**t Show" was very directly modeled on "I Did It My Way." By contrast, Josh's "Thought Bubbles" song seems like a Jason Mraz or Jack Johnson sort of laid-back vibe. Yes, the cast are really high-level musical performers, and Gabrielle Ruiz (Valencia) does have ballet in her background. But Vincent Rodriguez III (Josh) has said that the Triceratops Ballet was the hardest number in the whole series for him. He's a fantastic tap dancer and a good all-around show dancer in various styles, but he never studied ballet specifically, and maintaining those classical ballet poses and moves really put a strain on him, and he was sore for days afterward. I think that's fun to know, because he certainly looks believable and even elegant while it's going on.

He really crushed it! Totally believable! People shouldn't sleep on ballet, it's very demanding and challenging for some of the best athletes in the world.

Hey, if you haven't done it already, you should look up the uncensored versions of the songs. With a lot of them there are different words and phrases really do change the song.

We definitely don't want anything bad to happen to her! At the end of the day we love Rebecca and this show is a very smart and light way to talk about these important issues. It really pushes it into the mainstream so everyone can talk about it.
