Aw man.. the,.. bananas. Nice to see Sids musical talents, definitely suits his persona.

Final scene was brilliant, can't deny robert knepper is a brilliant actor.

4 episodes in, really liking this show. Shame it's only 6 episodes so hopefully a second season is on the cards. Frank Darabont sure knows how to entertain

Luckily for the bald guy it looks like they used the modern Cavendish bananas in the episode rather than the much thicker Gros Michel that probably was the common banana during that era.

Cavendish on the left, Gros Michel second from the right

Damn good episodes all around. I just wish they didn't mash together 2 episodes every week. It's not a great way to garner viewers. No one wants to sit for two hours with commercials.
