Quote: Aaron @ December 11 2008, 10:31 PM GMTAnother great episode. Although I really have to say that when it genuinely isn't his fault, I'd like Rick to come out on top for once.
I couldn't agree more.
The whole premis of the plot-lines (just as they are in Curb Your Enthusiasm, and to a lesser extent Extras) is that Rick is 'undone' by his own, albeit faintly laudable, 'failings'.
At a pinch you could say it was because he didn't post the package when he should have done - too busy trying to put 'Spikey' off - but actually that was down to the daugters laziness.
It's just not as satisfying some how. Hubris has to be earnt, in my book.
