- Viewing the two halves at midnight and 7 a.m. accidentally matched the act structure; the actors’ enjoyment and rich material make the adaptation appealing.

- Moss and Aaronow’s repetition recalls early Seinfeld dialogue; a possible Mamet influence on its writers is proposed rather than established.
