Sorry, guys...

I am moving 2200 miles away back to Wisconsin from San Francisco tomorrow, and with all of the last minute stuff and the actual move, I will not be able to get the episode review for Scarecrow out until the end of the week. I will be unplugged from the internet from now until Thursday! Rest assured, I will cover the rest of season 1 and do a detailed full-season review before season 2 starts on September 28th.
