Jessie is pretty cute.

I still think it's a necessary one to keep extraneous characters out of the secret. Especial legal entities who can't ignore the fact that Arrow keeps putting holes in people's chests and that Flash has a private prison. This show gets around it by having a super-secret agency cleaning up after her (and spoon-feeding

The series is definitely improving.
The relationships between Kara, Alexandra and her foster mother felt real, even with the horribly contrived Thanksgiving confrontations.

I'd love there to be an actual story behind this rather than a plot convenience or that she's known all along. Some thing like Cat is too vain to wear glasses or suffers from prosopagnosia.

Really unsure what I'm thinking about this one.
The action is definitely well choreographed in a very Honk Kong action kind of way, but weirdly this is what works against the limited palette, for me. If you're going to have action this stylized you might as well go all the way and throw some colour other than red in

Goldang it, now all I can think of is Zoom's triumphal tour of Barry's body accompanied by that theme.

While I really agree with your last sentence I think the nature of the MOTW has been misunderstood. The true monster is the viral video, like the Great Intelligence and the Sandmen are merely the form it's minions take, like Yetis or the Snowmen. There is also the possibility Rassmunssen is completely lying about what

Which would've worked if the story was deliberately a remix of Clara's memories of adventures or something. Maybe that's what was intended, but adding that to the found footage and it was all to messy to tell, or care.

That would make sense if there was any reason any of the players involved knew of/ cared about who the Doctor was.

It was a bad episode. The most disappointing thing is that there's an interesting conceit at the heart of it and an ok MOTW, but that the story uses those things as a cheat for being mediocre.
It's all very well having a story literally based on the possibility it could be a dream, and a situation and characters that

I don't think the gun is real and Matt's power is making him go through some kind of purgatory until he feels he's 'out the other side' and goes and joins the happy-clappy people in their white cult-suits. That could be a way that Parkman can do this and not think of himself as EVIL.

"Gee, I've stopped time. Maybe I should be removing the gun from the hand of the crazy lady."

Neither of them ever got tested for evo powers before? You'd think it was some kind of thing they'd have faced long before this. Which means Chuck could have been lying about it, which makes him an even worse person then he was as just a mass murderer.

Exactly on point about Tommy's powers. Hiro never had a disappearing-black hole hand when he was growing up. I don't think I've ever seen him teleport something he wasn't taking himself. Anyone remember any examples?

I was hoping after the flashblack exposition dumps the show might come back revitalized and take on some different emphasis in character and action.Perhaps now people might discuss things out loud instead of hinting repeatedly and ominously.

This was just great tv; adults dealing with a serious relationship problem LIKE ADULTS, the oddly genteel but still frightening dip into Seattles real underworld and Blaine's whole arc and the way his act is rendered ultimately meaningless.
In a show about a psychic zombie morgue attendant solving crime and her

There were also a couple of people, both living and zombie, that were disappeared by Max Rager.
So putting the count at the low-end of the five mentioned on screen that's probably enough rich white guys for the FBI to get involved.

Blaine was truly expecting to die one way or the other. He'd said that his greatest desire was to put his father in a home like he did to his father. Forcing Blaine Sr. to experience exactly that was his idea of getting at least a measure of posthumous revenge for his grandfather and himself. Liz sparking the idea of

They'd still have to eat brains and after all the kids that went missing from his charge last season it would be one of the last things he wants that it continues elsewhere.

From previous episodes they give him a list and he returns it with certain names crossed off.
Major assumes he's being watched but that as long as he puts on a show and the names keep disappearing then they have no reason to check further. So far.
