I've really been enjoying Jim's adventures on the bus, although getting dumped at the side of the road with a cute chick and fat sidekick is a little too much 80s rom-com.

Probably my least favorite of the three episodes this season but the antics with Jim on the bus are pretty funny.

I'm liking this Genoa storyline. Looking forward to seeing how it blows up in ACN's face.
Making Jim on the road with the Romney tour was probably the best thing the writers did for this season. Got away from that silly love triangle with Maggie and Don. I liked when he was pissing off the Romney spokesperson in the bus and then got kicked off the bus with Hallie and the other guy.
at the blackmail recording on Reese Lansing being empty.

Was it posted anywhere that this was pretty much renewed?

Love that bit as well. Not a fan of slapstick but for some reason I was rolling. I am digging the Don and Sloan story though. Surprised that Sloan is becoming one of my favorite characters. Her intelligence mixed with awkwardness is great. The way she handled the EP of her show was priceless.

Pretty dick move--albeit predictable or foreshadowed--by the writers to have Will hook up with Nina.
Damn if I'm not invested in these characters.

I liked the last 2 episodes better than the premiere.
