Context YMMV / Lodge49

Go To

1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The series uses many obscure songs to good effect.
2** In "As Above, So Below" Broadcast's "Come On Let's Go" plays as Ernie and Dud drink in the tavern and really begin their friendship.
3** In "The Slide", Three Degrees' "Collage" plays as Liz and Dud both contemplate their current aimlessness, somehow managing to mesh with Liz's disenchantment and Dud's contentment.
4** In "Circles", Broadcast's "The Book Lovers" adds a nice mysterious ambiance to [[spoiler:Blaise and Liz's journeys back through the history of Orbis, Parabola, and Lodge 49]].
5** In "La Reve Impossible", the Oh Sees' "Animated Violence" adds a hilariously epic vibe to Liz and Metz's impromptu dumpling-eating contest.
6** In the same episode, the Soundcarriers' cover of Scott Walker's "The Seventh Seal" makes Ernie's stealing of the bowling bag even more heroic.
7* DiagnosedByTheAudience: There's definitely something off about Booie, the Pool Party poolboy, with his lack of eye contact and ignorance of social cues. Fans are split as to what his problem is.
8* SpiritualSuccessor: To ''Film/TheBigLebowski''. Sean "Dud" Dudley is practically the son of Jeff "Dude" Lebowski, another slacker Californian pulled into a conspiracy populated by oddball characters through no fault of his own.
9* {{Squick}}:
10** Blaise pulling out a lengthy, parasitic worm out of his right nostril.
11** Dud's infected shark bite. Doubly so when Blaise pulls a shark tooth out of it.
12* TheWoobie:
13** ''Sean''. A genuinely nice guy whose life went to shit within a year. With his father dying, receiving a snake bite that never healed properly and prevents him from working or surfing, and being forced to live in his car after losing his childhood home.
