Not following you here - are you suggesting some sort of split personality?  No, just that William himself (his hubris as you have mentioned, his quest for the truth, righteousness, etc) may be his own undoing. Ah yes, that, too! |

So from the preview I just saw it looks like one the Murdochs are at a stand-up comedy program at a theatre, and someone gets killed.
I really hope this happens. I've been wishing for an episode like this for a while now!

I've been wishing for an episode like this for a while now! I recall something about a Vaudeville episode. Wasn't George actually in the Vaudeville thing? Also - I thought High Voltage was the last episode before the hiatus. Are we getting a new episode next week?  |

According to the preview we are getting one next week! *happy dance*  I think this is the one where the "Bro-team" of George and Henry go undercover. |

A vaudeville, eh? Looks like George and Henry will be taking center stage in this one. This will be hilarious.

OMG, they need to be taking lessons from Plumbum! If the Inspector sees that, they are dead meat.  |

Hmm, funny ep...but mostly because Murdoch found it all so unfunny. Interesting to learn that stand up comics were first called monologists. Makes sense though but harder to say.
I should have seen the ending coming...I mean, I knew he wanted to prove to Julia that he could be funny too, but I didn't get it until right before it happened.
The case was fairly intricate. I really had no idea who did it the whole time and it was a bit confusing even after they explained it. So I guess that means it was good?
Gedna is officially a thing now. Probably going to be lots of moaning on FB about this.
Anyway, it was basically what I expected it would be like. Nothing groundbreaking, but just good ol' fashioned fun....with tomatoes.

Seems the inspector is on good terms with The Murdoch's so I guess Murdoch was unable to sway Julia's mind to go back into the race?
Also, what was up with that awkward exchange between George and Emily? Did she finally learn that he's moved on or something?
And Snacky will be devastated to learn that there was no angst whatsoever in this ep...well very minimal maybe on the Gedna front. Does this mean angst galore in the second half like a Shakespearean tragedy? Methinks so! 10% darker! 10% DARKER!

I don't think it had much to do with being turn-of-the-century. Considering the high risk of the prisoner they were transporting, they could have recruited at least a few more constables. Maybe the hubris cycle of the Greek Tragedy is starting! It's coming~ Sorry, Snacky! No angst for you! |

Somewhat of an underwhelming episode, I can't stand vaudeville so it got off to a bad start for me. The case was pretty good, quite complicated and not easy to figure out. Liked William's effort to humour Julia. That's about it, I'll watch it maybe one more time then go back to What Lies Buried, simply the best episode of the season if not the series. |

I actually got to see it at the same time as you for once!  It was a cute ep, and I loved how determined William was to make Julia laugh, and I loved, loved, loved George the man. But, yeah, nothing like the past two weeks that will induce me to write pages of thought. |

I just remembered that Edna offered George tea in the pilot and then they proceeded to kiss. She asked him up for tea at night again, her son is not home, she's an experienced widow...all looks good for George...assuming he can fix the plumbing first that is.  #Murdochsnottheonlyonegettingluckythisseason |
