Northern Exposure S1 E3 - Soapy Sanderson


Summary (from Wikipedia): An old hermit dies, leaving his land jointly to Maggie and Fleischman, who have radically different ideas about what to do with it. She wants to create a nature preserve, while he has been approached by rich natives who want to buy it to use as a tax shelter.

This episode feels just a tad too early in the season, but it's all good. There's not much to say about this episode actually. It's mainly just a struggle between Joel and Maggie (as always, of course, but with a black and white differential subject between them this time.)

Other than the documentary filming going on (which is related to Soapy anyway) this episode mostly only focuses on one thing, which does happen here and there on this show, so I guess this was the first one. It does, however, open up something of a small arc in Season 1 with Joel and Maggie figuring out what to do with the land.

Releasing ashes from a plane, lol. What did you guys expect? It reminded me of The Big Lebowski.
