eh, i dunno who he is. if i could vote it wold be for nader!

(Anyone else around here old and American enough to remember "Don't be a hater, vote for Ralph Nader!"? Anyone...?)

(Oops, my mistake. That comes from watching the first two seasons as a mini-marathon one weekend - I forget that they aren't one longer season instead of two mini-seasons.

I know it was only one scene, but it does feel like they purposefully overextended that scene in order to oversexualize her character. Meanwhile, they did a pretty poor job with the airplane (I'm not sure what mind trick they were relying on to think that they would have won: if the world believed that the plane attack was real, then the terrorists still won because people are still afraid of them, and that was sort of the point,) and once they added the info-dumping in there simply wasn't enough time for that.

My other issue with that episode is the mood whiplash it gave me after the seriousness of the episode before that. Then, we get a new season (despite those of us who got the new season approximately five minutes and one bathroom break after the first season had finished playing,) and suddenly Irene is prancing about in the buff.)
