*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
I'm very surprised at the quality of the first few episodes, usually a show can take a while to get going but i'm really into this now. Martin Starr gives a comic masterclass as Bill, the guy is excellent.
Set during Halloween, the geeks go trick or treating while the freaks are out to cause trouble.
Again for me Martin Starr really owns this episode as Bill/the bionic woman. His scene in front of the mirror had me howling. Also a mention for Becky Ann Baker as Sam's mother, who gives a funny and touching performance in this episode. Two big thumbs up so far! Favourite line: "these are not bionic. They are all me!"
