S01.E05: The Trouble with Harry


Recommended Posts

(edited)

I thought the kid was the same kid in the previous episode-- her nephew? Is that not true?

 

Edit: I checked IMDB. Seems it's not the same kid. I thought it would be a great plot point if it was... but it wasn't. Alas! Also, I should not binge a show when I'm too tired to keep my eyes open at all times.

The 2 were similar enough that I wondered if when they auditioned for her nephew, there were 2 equally great kid actors, so they wrote a second part.

Speaking of bingeing while sleepy, was it this episode or the last in which Eliza Coupe as Senator Margery Bay Bix was excitedly ranting during the hearing in what seemed like a gentle spoof of AOC? 

And speaking of character spoofs, is Taran Killam as St. Pierre supposed to be a take-off on Musk — perhaps crossed with Nancy Reagan's astrologer?

I don't think he's meant to be Musk, mostly because he's aligned with Lily, not the President.  I don't see him as a Musk-type figure.  I briefly thought that about Harry, but not for long.  Also, this show was probably done filming by the elections, certainly before Musk had inserted himself into the real White House.

I initially thought Harry was a Secret Service agent because the first episode was such a whirlwind of character introductions. Then when it was revealed that he lived there, I thought he was the First Gentleman. 

Then I was completely distracted by the fact that all I could think of was him playing Grace's date with 6 toes on 1 foot in Will & Grace.
