Man, my embarrassment squick was pressed a lot as well. My husband turned the show off at one of the Rodney/Sam interactions, too, because he couldn't take it. There was so much bad in this on a public humiliation level is made me squirm.

Tell me, did the guy who wrote this ep write any others this season? I know Rob Cooper only did "Doppleganger", as he was working on the movie. Is it too much to hope that Joe M was pulled off onto something else as well?
