    I don't know why I had such high expectations for the Finale but it was pretty flat which makes it par for the course for this season. If you can get past the long stares in every scene you'll realize this show is a pale imitation of itself. Some of these episodes this season were a real struggle to get through

    I trust Phillip's instincts about Claudia and Stan's GF, Renee. She's clearly never left the US and has been running a separate op which may or not include Stan's GF. I also read a really interesting theory about how Henry is Claudia's mission. I don't agree with everything in it, but it's quite intriguing.

    You make some good points but I'm still trying to figure out why Oleg is still on the show if his story is not going to tie into the other characters. It seems like his arc with Stan and the CIA is over. I actually like Oleg and the actor who plays him and just feel like there are more layers to his story.

    This list is kind of disappointing and as much as I love Mr blue Sky, I could go 10 years without hearing it again. It'd be much cooler if he went the Tarantino route and took some "Super sounds of the 70's" tracks that would be considered deep tracks now instead of popular played out music.

    I'm curious about how all the callbacks to family & Soviet prison will tie into the show. They seem to be spending a decent amount of time talking about Philip's father job as a prison guard as well as Gabriel's own experience as a prison guard. We also have Oleg looking into his mother's prison record. Are we

    Did they show her face because I don't remember seeing it? I saw a blond woman who could be wearing a disguise just like Philip & Elizabeth usually do. i also have a hard time believing that she's just a normal woman interested in Stan which is something Philip believes too. It's more likely she is KGB, Mossad.

    I may have to watch the scene again but I think Renee, Stan's GF was the woman in Mississippi who the Gorp Guy was with.

    Good point about McKean. I just feel like that storyline has left me a mix of bored and ambivalent about Jimmy and Chuck. I have tremendous faith in Vince Gilligan which will keep me watching, but something feels off about how much this has dragged on. It's the kind of stuff I'd expect from Walking Dead which I

    The Chuck storyline is getting tired and needs to be resolved soon. It just feels like they are milking this story as they don't know what they want to do with Jimmy/Saul next. The show seems like it doesn't have any idea yet of its end game and its starting to show. I guess it was positive seeing Jimmy's

    Yippee, this Epic POS is Over. Made me yearn for the awful carnival season. I was hoping it would end with Hiro meeting Peter on the subway instead of the generic "father" ending which I guess is supposed to be Sylar. Good thing we will never see this happen.
