Season 1, Episode 9
7/10
Good progression of plot
22 May 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Edward Hall does a convincing job of looking tired, Hollywood style, i.e., no darkened bags under his eyes for being awake almost four days and nights (I can't imagine), and the subsequent development of his character is adequately done; boy, does he sure go to the doctor a lot, the same one who tells him he's finished the next time. Yet the surreal amusement park scenes with Maya the Catsecretary he just saw and incorporated into his dream and who wants him to jump off the endless roller coaster ride decides to use a large nosed stunt man to actually do the jumping out of the obviously not the window in the building used for external shots earlier in the episode. I'm just being sneaky about this episode I really like. Never being a really "Can't get a good nights sleep" type, I can imagine somewhat after viewing this episode what lack of sleep mentally generates.
