I am "not - not" giving this episode a 10
A_Different_Drummer6 August 2016
Ravich (as writer not director) out-did himself here.

I am binge-watching this series because (a) I missed it when released and (b) it is comfy as old socks.

But every now and then I come across writing that is as good as anything you might see from an A-List hit show.

And this episode is an example. The bigamist who is "not not" looking for someone breaking the law is stunningly clever. Combined with the comfortable repartee between the two stars, we have a winner.

And since Ravich did double-duty as both writer and director, I have noticed (not just in this episode but in several) that he will do fancy cutting to emphasize particular clever bits of dialog. It is more obvious here because the theme of bigamy gives him a wider license.

Fun for all.
