T. Bat--  I think the disturbing things about the painting are supposed to be that (1) Sam painted it under remote control, and (2) that it portrays a woman (whom they knew) on fire, presumably being burned to death.   I don't think that being unconventional in his artwork had anything to do with it.

He's also under extreme duress to paint this thing. He doesn't want to and doesn't understand what's making him do it or why.

I have been to many a museum, seen all of the masters, yet I prefer my own style. And I've sold stuff. So if Sammy can eck out a living selling seascapes and whatnot, well, why not?

I have the complete set of Wild, Wild West. The box is rectangular, but it's fashioned to look sort of like a saddle. The DVDs are housed in stirrup shaped containers. Very cool.

wouldn't role play Watson to his Sherlock Holmes...

Excellent!

Nancy Barrett and hubby David Ford in the same episode. Wowee!

That couple must have had quite a few drinks to find a spinning wicker lantern so amusing.

I really feel bad for Sam. I do. Not only does he have Burke and Roger on his back, (not to mention Maggie’s constant nagging at him),but now he has this mysterious compulsion to paint a canvas he doesn’t want to paint, nor does he know the reason why he’s doing it. Of course, Roger’s no help. Sam should have realized that before he asked him to come to his house. But then, Sam is pretty desperate for any answer to his problem. 

Roger bursts Burke’s bubble pretty well here, implying that he and Laura are going to reconcile. He’s one up until Carolyn tells Burke that Laura is staying in the cottage. Gotta love it.
And I love how Roger and Burke  stand on either side of Sam, who is sitting down, and they’re arguing and looking like they’re about to come to blows. Sam’s in a pretty precarious place there.

Definitely enjoyed Mitch Ryan’s performance today. He absolutely looked the part of the poor disillusioned sap.

Amazon's prices often fluctuate all over the place - especially their pre-order prices - so the price is likely to change several more times before April 10th.

I'm missing some sets and hope that individual sets come way down. But you're right about Amazon. They're prices are all over the place.

Fill in the blank:

Frank and Vicky snickered when Roger asked them if they were going upstairs to _______ .

Sounds like mega bytes I can draw from.
