The Fantastic Mr. Fawkes
Oh the irony of the hotel clerk warning of the horrific impact of American tariffs....

Tequila
They keep mentioning a guest room, that Kate's mom has used repeatedly and Jody has stayed, so it make no sense that they ask Maura to sleep in the living room.

Someone to Watch Over Me: Part 2
This episode hasn't aged well. Not enjoyable seeing Neighborhood Watch that ends up just making people overly suspicious and overreporting. The mob mentality of the crowd wanting to see violence. Jokes about SWAT teams raiding the wrong house aren't as funny (now that we know they have done that with fatal consequences), etc.
Sigh. Awfully disturbing that this racist, anti-immigrant, xenophobia with "enemies lists" is not only STILL around but running our government.
It's like they watched this episode for pointers. Twisting the language to disavow bigotry to falsely claim oppression & victimhood in order to incite others. How to dehumanize others. How to rile a mob. Falsely blaming "communists" for their own mistakes. Trying to claim they're not spreading hate, that they have some high-minded "philosophy", railing against "softness". Falsely accusing others to further the agenda, sacrificing people to further their own interests. Using words like "vermin" and "infected".
Like the regular citizens in the episode they were "too monsterous, so we ignored them, or laughed at them, because we couldn't believe there were enough insane people to walk alongside of them" ... and now we rendition people to torture gulags.
