"Does he even need you at all?" LISTEN, ANNABELLE, IF YOU'D BEEN PAYING ATTENTION THE LAST FEW SEASONS--

Rurrie

I never knew why the coffin made that noise when it rained ;_; THANKS FOR THAT KNOWLEDGE.

Rurrie

"Let's go full Kill Bill!" "....I haven't seen it"

Rurrie

"I think we should get our murder on!" I love you Martin

Lilian Darmono

OMG who is martin talking tooooooooo

I listened to this episode about three times today; the writing in TMA just slaps so incredibly fuckin hard I like the way each fear gets a slightly to very different take every time y'all write about them; the Buried is now among many other things the eldritch god of failure to act in solidarity with your class

I love how I started laughing, was then horrified by worms?? of all things?? and then ended up dreading whatever strings Annabelle is pulling right now.

Jasper G

idk the buried do seem kinda cozy tho

Heather MacKenzie

I have to say, out of all of these so far, this one was the most terrifying. Also, I don't like that Annabelle is trying to manipulate Martin.

James Rule

Out of all the Fears, the Buried scares me the most.

Dez

I loved Martin's little "I know right?" at the recorder cause I was totally talking crap I felt so seen haha

Bee

Great episode! But come on Annabelle really has to come a long and ruin it doesn’t she

Avery Winther

God I love the Buried. Definitely the fear that gets to me most. What a great episode.

“i haven’t seen it” jon are you KIDDING me

Robbie Lyons

Amazing. One of my favourite powers, and the audio is just better than I can describe. Does anyone know why the Buried has choirs? They suit it so well.

Evangeline

MARTIIIIIN!!! Holy hell I was grinning ear to ear when he was just like “HELL yeah let’s go kill some monsters”

Zorya Dolgushkin

All the hinting about false hope in this statement is making me nervous...but eerily beautiful writing! Hell yes Martin, no beating around the bush it’s the apocalypse and it’s time to kick some fucking ass!! I also really really hope Helen eventually just joins them as their third buddy on the apocalypse quest, she’s raring to go!! And I love how the swearing is minimalist in this series so it has much more impact when they do drop an f bomb like Jon did in this episode.

Maybe, Cass

Martin: Aren't you tired of being nice? Don't you want to go apeshit?

Rusty Quill

I will check with the producers.

Clay (keeningthoughts)

Well. They both need soft hugs and warm comfort now.

Marianne weber

Martin is a gift ❤️ wonderful episode as usual

Welshy

Martin you’re an absolute delight

Gilligan Mungus

I hate The Buried too, John. That said the skill and talent with which Jonny writes the Fears as analogies for real world socio-economic issues is so freaking impressive. I look forward to schools dissecting Jonny’s work in various classes and the study guides that shall inevitably be created. The nuances in his writing DESERVE to be studied and inspire awe in burgeoning writers for eons to come.

*chanting*ANNABELLE! ANNABELLE! ANNABELLE! (and Helen too!). Jon is not okay, Martin is a delight. The worm nation is going to be very happy

Janeiac SMR

Of course an old Nokia survived even this.

LainyJP

So in love with Murder!Martin, loving his Archivist for what he is regardless! And Helen!!

Abigail

Loving Martin “We should get our murder on!” Blackwood and Helen “yes Martin!!!” Distortion.

Considering my claustrophobia, you'd think this episode would have disturbed me more than it did, but I was still too caught up on Martin wanting to get his murder on. Also Helen and Annabelle.

faeyoli

This has probably been said many times before but murder!Martin is amazing. For once, Jon is shocked at him xD And Helen brings the much needed levity into this nightmare landscape. This trio is just so much fun to listen to. So did worm!Richard actually die? I mean, is anybody really dying these days? I doubt ppl are reproducing much and killing off their 'livestock' doesn't seem that smart of the fear entities.

Annabel

I wish someone had filmed my face when I twigged that this was not a regular earthworm situation

NotAVandyGirl

Wooooow. Jonny has gotten amazingly good at predicting our questions (explaining exactly what The Archivist did to the NotSasha). Also - I love Martin this season. “Let’s go full Kill Bill!” Helen is all of us - “can I come?”

Madolyn M

the end scene had me dying, i love martin so much

MuddyHippy

I would very much like to agree with Jon here, I hate the buried too. Brilliant episode as always guys, really made my breath catch!

Beth Buell

This one will stay in my mind for quite a while. Wow

Kitkat

Wow this is amazing!

Helen Craig

I know it's obvious that EVERYONE has been cast into the nightmare world. but something just feels so unfair about people who had awful lives before all this just...still suffering. Brilliant episode that will stay with me - liking the discussion of what Jon's powers mean now as well.

Morgan Emrys

Wowowowwowow

Sam Lueke

amazing, incredible, fantastic, all of it. thanks guys!

Fitzlet

I'm loving Martin's decisiveness now.

daethsticks

*distant blood-curdling scream* “ugh I know right” Martin I love you with my entire heart

Brian Taulbee

OK, this one was a gut-punch. Even putting aside the literal claustrophobia, tying The Buried to inescapable poverty was both brilliant and really hard to listen to.
