Now since we are discussing the mundane and at the risk of going off topic here, Kathy and I have been having a behind the scenes discussion about Jim's sunglasses. They do not fold. Look at any close-up and there are plenty. There is no hinge on them. One scene that particularly comes to mind is Up On the Roof when Marty asks him why the bad blood between Terry and him. So if they don't fold up and he takes them off and puts them on the table when he is interviewing Marybeth, where are they when he leaves the room? He can't put them in his pocket. Galloway hands them to him at the end of a session and if they folded wouldn't he have folded them and put them in his pocket? I've never seen sunglasses that don't fold (with the exception of those big fat racing glasses). Does anyone know anything about this. Inquiring minds want to know.
I was watching the Pilot last night, and when they're in Lyman's living room, Jim takes off his sunglasses and folds them in his right hand, then I think he sticks them in his pocket. Or who knows, maybe he just hides them behind his back, then drops them on the floor for the prop people to pick up so he won't have to worry about them later in the scene.

I have a pair of hinge-less glasses, I can hold them folded in my hand, they just don't stay folded unless you are holding them that way. You could theoretically stick them in your pocket, they would just cause a noticeable bump. Does that make sense?
