You're the Worst 4.5: "Fog of War, Bro"
Chris: I do love the decision to just go all in on this episode. The acting is way over the top to the point of hysterics (cue Edgar jumping off the balcony) and even the soundtrack is far different from the usual and it’s fitting to the horror movie aesthetic. I’ve praised this show many times for the attention to detail and adding little things to enhance the story or mood. For example, I totally missed the little detail in the scene where Jimmy is talking to the publisher lady about the Gretchen situation while being mic’d up, if you look down, you can see Gretchen poke her head out from the staircase below to listen in on what’s going on. Why include that? Because as stated many times, Gretchen can go anywhere which is the whole reason Gretchen took this to 11. Jimmy started this episode by trying to tell Gretchen that she needed to stay downstairs or leave the house. It doesn’t matter how nice he was trying to be while explaining it, the message remained the same ...
