  1. I've sort of binge watched this series in the past 2 weeks and the Jonah character keeps getting more annoying. He has this affectation where he starts WAY too many sentences with a stammer/stutter, followed by verbal diarrhea. He also uses the device of immediately backtracking and trying to explain what he just said WAY too much. Like, he says something and then right away the stammer comes and it's "No, I ...I... didn't mean it that way etc. Amy was doing it as well, but at least she's gone - and is not missed. I wish Jonah would have followed her because it's lazy acting and no one in real life that I've ever met talks like that. No one else in the show does either. His arc through the entire 6 seasons has gone no where. He failed at the union organizing, he hasn't moved up the ranks at work, he hasn't taken extra classes in anything to better his education,, he's a wimp 99% of the time and it's hard to see how this lawyer lady would be interested in him. Anyway, the last couple episodes have had me laughing again - except when Jonah comes on and we get the completely predictable dialogue. The realistic ending would be for the store to close - mainly because management is a complete disaster, which is no surprise at all, because all it takes is a one day seminar to become a store manager. The store has been trashed multiple times including a couple episodes back when the hooligans came in, wrecked the place and stole lots of expensive items to boot, last week they wrecked the electronics, this week they flooded the place, etc. They would never pass a health inspection with the rats and racoons fouling up the place, not to mention all the frozen food that was spoiled when Jonah was training the new kid how to stack the freezer. The employees seem to use the store products whenever they want, and they slack off the majority of the time - yes, I know, we need that to happen for the comedy scenes. We'll see what happens, but in any realistic scenario, either new management would be brought in or the place closed.
