Also, for the purposes of next-season predictions, I'm betting that Alex is nearly killed by the guard but somehow survives her injuries. My guess is that the show will continue to depict her as "coming to the light" even as Piper sinks deeper and deeper into her spiritual malaise.

I'm betting that Stella will be back next season. I have no idea what they're going to do with her, but it seems the Internet is way too obsessed with Ruby Rose for the show to cut her loose. Great job, Internet?

I mean, they managed to keep Pornstache's reappearance under wraps, and they also kept people up in the air about Lorraine Toussaint DESPITE repeatedly telling us that she wouldn't be coming back at all. I think they could keep Lauren Prepon a secret.

I'm sorry, but the description of Michael Henchard from "The Mayor of Casterbridge" is blatantly untrue to the book. SPOILERS ahead, so don't read if you don't like that.

The second half of this episode was much, much better than the first. Stannis may have gotten what he deserved, but he also deserved a lot more time taken to actually develop his downfall, rather than, "whelp, let's see if we can finish this off in under seven minutes, guys."

Yes––the show doesn't kick into gear until about halfway through the second season, when it becomes more serialized and all the seemingly unrelated crises start crashing into one another. Once that starts happening, it can be one hell of a rush.

I believe that this show has no real idea what to do with Healy. His character constantly shifts between "pathetic, lonely man who needs someone to nurture his nobler side" and "irredeemable racist and misogynist," but those shifts rarely come across as credible or natural––and I don't think it's the actor's fault.…

Ugh, the "Illuminati confirmed" crowd are going to get their hands all over this.

In all honesty, Hannah should have slapped Jessa across the face. She's earned it.
