I've never appreciated such a sustained assault on the 4th wall.
Not an aficionado of the graphic novels but I've developed a faith in DC for delivering novel and enjoyable TV. This was no exception... charming, touching, surreal and (as usual) hilarious. The episode's disruptive approach to traditional pacing also ultimately made it feel like a piece of two distinct halves allowing for even tighter storytelling (a rarity in an era of sprawling multi-seasonal shows).
Thanks to everyone who brought this and the whole season to fruition. Clint Mansell's work on the score also seems criminally underrated in the way it set such a contrastingly serious tone to the shows often ridiculous narrative.
Can't wait to see how it develops
