- Quotes
Tom Wambsgans: So I hear you've made an enormous faux pas and everyone's laughing up their sleeves about your date.
Greg Hirsch: What? Why?
Tom Wambsgans: Why? Because she brought a ludicrously capacious bag.
Greg Hirsch: What's...
Tom Wambsgans: What's even in there, huh? Flat shoes for the subway? Her lunch pail? I mean, Greg, it's monstrous. it's gargantuan. You could take it camping. You could slide it across the floor after a bank job.
Greg Hirsch: Well, whatever.
Tom Wambsgans: She's used all the display towels in the bathroom and now they're sopping wet. She's gabbling about herself and posting on social media, she's asking people personal questions, and she's wolfing all the canapés like a famished warthog.
Greg Hirsch: People are overreacting, okay? She brought a normal sort of handbag.
Tom Wambsgans: You are a laughingstock in polite society. You'll never go to the opera again.
The relationship between the siblings has always been the highlight of the show, and seeing them all working together for once is very satisfying. The fallout of the last season finale is taking shape wonderfully, and it's clear that there are things waiting for the siblings as they try to set up something for themselves and prepare to take on Logan. There's certainly a toxicity in the relationship, but seeing them get along is something that'll hopefully carry the season into a beautiful trajectory. There's a beautiful contrast in the storyline here, as it's clear that Logan still has a lot of regrets; regrets that he'll never publicly disclose. His storyline this episode (which beautifully mirrors the beginning of the series with his birthday) really goes to show the loneliness inside Logan, something that has definitely been hinted at earlier, but is coming very wonderfully to the surface after his fallout with the children. It all leads into a very intense deal that they're both involved in and which sets up the real fight between the two parties very well. Jesse Armstrong's writing is as crisp and gorgeous as it has always been, and it gives the actors a lot of great stuff to work with. Especially Matthew Macfadyen and Sarah Snook who totally stand out throughout the entire episode, but especially in a very moving finale that asks a lot of questions about where their relationship is going. It promises a lot of exciting weeks ahead and one heck of an intense finale.
"The Munsters" capture the best elements of this show in a great hour of television that promises some great weeks to come in the future. The writing is great and the character work is off to a thrilling start with a lot of interesting questions about each character's future being put on the table quickly.
