Although the premise was a bit like what I'd imagine a "The X-Files"-reject story to be, this has to be my favorite episode since the first. Vince Gilligan had a very good hangle on the jokes and the plot. Not too serious, not too goofy. Just the way it should be. Although I don't understand why it's called "Planet of the Frohikes." Frohike really didn't have a very big role, unlike in "Eine Kleine Frohike."
Jimmy just about floored me in this episode. He was hilarious, and I like how he actually comes to outsmart the gunmen after they've given him such as hard time. I also like how we got a some glimpse of what Harlow is doing, as well as her having a bigger part in this episode than before. Edward Woodward's voice was a nice touch too. I hope to see more of this kind of episode in the near future.
