4. I've tried to watch this episode a couple of times but it feels like they skipped a season.

AMC was remiss in not running a marathon of Season 1 beforehand. Not that that would've helped considering the continuity problems with the new season. I was disappointed and not sure if I'll keep watching...

8. I thoroughly enjoyed S2 of this show! I hope there's a Season 3!

So far, AMC has not said whether they've renewed it for S3. The ratings have not been great, but I hope they give it a chance! Mad Men and Breaking Bad were not huge successes at first either, so hopefully, they will. This show has all the hallmarks of being another great AMC original if they'll just let it continue to build its audience.

One thing it does wonderfully (kudos to the writers!) is that it doesn't hit viewers over the head about things. They let the actors carry the scenes to get their points across, and the cast handles this beautifully. (Case in point: the airplane scene in the finale where Donna and Gordon are talking and he says something like, "Maybe when we get settled in California, we can have another baby." Donna gets up and goes into the bathroom. She doesn't say a word, but the meaning is conveyed perfectly.) This is something that both Mad Men and Breaking Bad also did so well.

So, anyway, let's hope for the best! SEASON 3 PLEASE!
