Episode 8 Peered At

This is another good world building episode! And it includes Jason Mantzoukas as an unhinged leader of a group, and that dude is always funny so it was a fun little episode.

We also finally get a little bit of backstory of John Doe the day he first remembered anything, where he found his beloved car. It's mostly just more world building for that origin, but somehow this episode actually made me a bit emotional.

They built an entire episode-long story with this one mixed with his origin and it paid off beautifully. I'm stunned that they could actually have an emotional payoff like this in this show, but they managed it.

Really great episode. Really quality stuff. I think this was arguably the best episode so far. Anthony Mackie did an outstanding job here.

BUT IT HAD NO CAR COMBAT. 3/8 currently.

Also a thought I had was that I think Sweet Tooth not being involved in every episode was the right call. He's good in the episodes we've seen him in, which I think is 4 at this point. But any more than that and I'm not sure how well it works out. Kudos to them for it.
