HI-larious episode. More highlights (inviso-text on!):

Select to view spoiler:

The Wolfram & Hart training film!!!!!

The office politics.

A day in the life of Harmony.

How the "higher ups" (Angel, Gunn, Wesley) were all portrayed as such hard asses.

The near When Harry Met Sally moment with Harmony and the thermous.

Spike's participation in this episode was completely unnecessary, tho.

I like Angel, but I thought last night's episode was one of the most insipid, stupid efforts ever in the series. Sorry...

Surprised by the throwaway mention of Yoyodyne in the teaser. "Laugh-a while you can, monkey-boy!"

Keep the Shiny side up

I was surprised at that too. I'm like "YOYODYNE?!" Ah, Buckaroo.

FYI- the 3 companies named were:

Yoyodyne (Buckaroo Banzai)
News Corporation (Parent company of Fox- explains a lot)
Weyland-Yutani (Aliens films, of which Joss worked on the fourth.)

Anyone else disappointed that Blue Sun wasn't mentioned?

Early: You ever been raped, Kaylee?
Kaylee: You know, it's funny you should mention that... ever heard of the Fox network?

Very cute ep, though I almost cried when the opening credits rolled sans Christian Kane. Ah well. Perhaps next week.

I knew it would be like "The Zeppo". Well done POV episode.

My peeve is that Wolfram & Hart is just too powerful. The writers are gonna run into some serious problems now that Gunn can just have anything inserted to his brain that the crew happens to need for the episode.

That got me laughing so hard that I had to rewind and pick up what I missed, after about 10 minutes.

New Corp is represented by Wolfram and Hart. That DOES explain a lot. Not just Firefly, but reality TV, etc.

Hmm... hopefully now that W&H are under Angel, it will still be safe to bash Faux.
