Featured review
Where to Begin
The writers threw it all into this one. The principle event was a Dear Joel letter from his fiancee, who has decided to hook up with a guy from Louisville, Kentucky, and call off their engagement. He drops into deep depression which includes a series of surreal cincounters with his past (his younger self, a former girlfriend) and dream sequences where he wishes he could do something but can't. He lies in bed, immobile. Shelley is the focus of the second part of this. Holling purchases a gigantic satellite dish to please her and the multitude of channels from around the world become a centerpiece of the bar. But Shelley becomes obsessed with it, unable to stop watching. She also blows over 4000 dollars on home shopping things like a telephone that looks like a hot dog. As for Joel, Ed convinces some of the townfolks to try to give closure to Joel because he never got to say goodbye to his girlfriend. It's a cleverly done episode, certainly well worth watching.
