     His bangs fall in the right way, they're the right length...if I were DD, I'd get a still from this ep and tell the hair stylist "Just make it look like this." And I'm not even a Duchovnik, really. It just stood out that much.

     I posted opinions in the hope that changes might have been made that might have brought back all the departed viewers (do you really think that all the viewers who defected were die-hard Duchovniks??) and allowed a truly groundbreaking show to continue.
