It was very odd that he received second billing in season 2 despite being in only about half the episodes and with very little screen time. I actually kind of, slightly like him — he plays that Thud Manmeat type of character better than (for example) Brett Dalton on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and kind of implies there is

I was actually hoping they would bring back the trans clone played by Maslany and develop a storyline of him with Felix. I thought they had a great rapport in that one episode. Still keeping my fingers crossed for him to make an entrance at some point.

I'm so happy and excited for this!

It was very ambiguous based on how he presented the story to Skye. Wouldn't it be natural to say, "BTW love, I put Mommy back together and she's all well now."?

That would be a reasonable extension of logic.

I was like "holy shit, Mike is back!" and then five minutes later "holy shit, dichen lachman is back!!" All in all it was a fantastic episode for surprise cast members to come back. I loved it. I'm so glad Skye's mom survived Whitehall's butchering.

I still kind of like Mack. The flashbacks worked to a certain extent last week. I get where the alternate Shield agents are coming from and it is really nice to see a broader, more inclusive agency in play. It gives more of a sense of Shield and less like what the hell are these people doing every week. Also five

This is going to suck so hard. I'm Indian so I can say this. :/

So I went to the SF premiere of GoT Season 5 and Kit Harington and Ian Beattie (who plays Meryn Trant) are the sweetest guys ever. I shall no longer be participating in the A.V. Club tradition of making fun of Jon Snow now! Everyone has been warned!

No. I guess you're not me. :(

No I don't think so. His character was written off as was basically all of Ichabod's family ties.

I used to watch Space: Above and Beyond too!! Are you me?

I half expected him to yell at them again.

Fine! You are forgiven. :)

I totally agree.

It is a huge pain in the ass. It makes it actively difficult to read Pratchett on any e-reader unless its in PDF which is a whole other issue unless you have a 9" iPad.

Yes that is a great deconstruction of the book! That central confusion really keeps tripping you up the first time you read it. And then everything makes so much more thematic sense when you are re-reading it. Plus the jokes make so much more sense!

I think perhaps you would benefit from starting earlier in the Discworld canon rather than later. The later books do have much more of a feel of social commentary and if you don't have the accumulated weight of the series background it can feel dissonant.

Enjoy yourself but be safe! :)

That scene gave me a very Annie playing dungeons and dragons in Community feeling.
