Quotes:

Charlie Eppes: When we're working together, we talk and we laugh, and there's? an energy. And I don't understand why that doesn't work outside the office. Why don't we have anything else to talk about?
Dr. Larry Fleinhardt: You know, you're making an underlying assumption here that I question.
Charlie Eppes: What's that?
Dr. Larry Fleinhardt: That there's something else you have to talk about. See, when you see two people unable to talk about politics or movies...
Charlie Eppes: Hey, movies, I - I can - I can talk about - I just saw the penguin movie.
Dr. Larry Fleinhardt: I see two extraordinary minds that can communicate on the purest level a man and woman can interface on.

how can a show be too Jewish?

One person's comments on this show was that it was too Jewish. I'm a black woman and I think that comment comes from a truly ignorant place. The actors characters being Jewish doesn't come into view unless you're looking for it. When I watched the show, I wasn't thinking, "Hey, these people are Jewish!" I was thinking, "Hey, I hope this show is good." I am so sick and tired of people focusing on race and religion. Get over it and just enjoy the freaking show because it's really good. Btw, it's good to see Rob Morrow back on TV. I was superpleased to see Peter MacNicol. I love the dark style of the show and I think the music is awesome. I've never been good at math, well at least the probability aspect that they deal with on the show, so it's pretty awesome to watch this show and it's also great to watch the story unfold.
