Similar to last episode, I wanted to stay in this world a bit longer.  It’s a fascinating one filled with strange people.  At first glance, we see a man wandering the desert, but as soon as he gets into town, … Continue reading →

Having now seen 20 episodes of this series, I feel like I know more or less what to expect.  And then this episode happens and it surprises me.  It surprises me because every other story felt self-contained.  Yes, they are … Continue reading →

Season 1 was a real surprise to me, telling stories with a deeper meaning, that I’ve come to expect the same from season 2.  Now, that’s not to say that some of those stories in the first season weren’t just … Continue reading →

Season 2 opens with Automated Customer Service… or at least it did for me, but it also shows as the first episode of season two according to Wikipedia.  I had high hopes for this when I’d seen the title.  I’ve … Continue reading →
