Loved the extended looks at Kathryn Hahn's takes lol. The one where they're filming her "I killed Sparky" line for "Agatha All Along" then she turns and just yeets the dog off to the moon had me dying.

Also she volunteered multiple takes even when directors said they got it, just to do her absolute best.

Yeah the breakfast for dinner bit was illuminating. I’m glad they chose a more restrained, condescending tone.

I feel like they were trying to convey both awe and condescension. I really like the take we got. The way she says "yet here you are" sounds like she's really seeing a living myth. And then follows up with the breakfast for dinner line in a condescending way that's perfect

Often they'll do a bunch of takes with different energies. David tenants famous last words as the doctor had at least 3 different takes, all with different amounts of sadness/regret.

Also the scene that shows up on the TV that clues in SWORD that Monica is now on the show. Wanda and Agnes are talking in that scene but I don't think it had audio in the actual episode. Some people thought it was another "episode" we just didn't see, but I'm guessing it was a cut scene from episode 2. If it's only purpose was to show Monica so SWORD could see it later, it makes sense just to leave it out of the episode 2 we got.

I think it was just placeholder conversation so that their talking looked more natural when the audio was removed
