I like the idea of this project and people "going deep" into the series, especially considering the quality, consistancy and continuity of the writers.

Years ago I had a similar idea but I wanted to follow the use of the caps and if they signalled a certain tone for each episode. Unfortunately I was keeping noted in the memo section of my phone, which crapped out on me and I lost everything I had accumulated from almost the first full season. I was discouraged and stopped, but maybe should pick it up again.

Thanks for the thread, it's great! I've actually realised how I liked that series when I noticed that the fourth wall moments, which usually bother me to no end in other movies or shows, were even funny to me. I understood that it must be quite the great show if even the things that usually annoy me, don't!

Season 4 snag.

Back to my project after an eight week sidetrack.

My mind's been elsewhere (exhausted) and a huge swath of episodes from "Home From The Sea" to "Operation Silent Night" had only a few Fourth Walls that I saw.

Maybe I missed them?

Anyone recall?

Here's what I got so far.

I'm in season 6.

There is a long line of episodes I didn't see any though.

My gap right now is between "Love For Sale Boat" and "Rapture".

That's fifteen episode with NO Fourth Wall.

Can that be right?

Seems weird but I often don't pay attention like I should.

If anyone in a self quarantine state maybe watch some Magnums and see if I missed some.

Anyways, I'm at 51 (FIFTY ONE).

Super-interesting! Wonder if that was a shift in directing style going on behind the scenes?
