I think the first one with Ed is when she rattles off a bunch of blown chances for the crew. When they finally do get a few they're usually rather low stakes.

Or that David Lucas guy Blum talked about. He was pretty good too.

Barry: You gotta help our friend, he was stabbed!

Very true, but in most TV and/or comic book worlds a defensive or last-resort kill doesn't seem to have that effect. Even the best of them tend to have main characters up and bouncing around 2 weeks after a major death.

Iris killed in defense, as opposed to when we saw Vibe, Barry, or Caitlin faced with killing a helpless person on the ground or otherwise unarmed. I'm sure she could be affected, but killing the guy who thought he killed her may keep that moral quandary at bay for awhile.

I don't know — the women tonight saved the day by stopping Savitar….plus HR who was pretending to be a woman.

After a wildly uneven season, the finale was quite good. Not perfect, and nothing will top "Fast Enough," but still quite good. The previous 2-3 episodes were also a step in the right direction, so here's hoping.

No, dozens of people do not die daily because they went to an innocuous pop concert.

They've made it clear that Jimmy is not a stereotypical idiot/passive sitcom father. When he explains why he's in such an unglamorous job to Ray, it's nice to see the lights go on for the kid.

I think they had to switch up Ray just a little so he wasn't the kid who would rat out his own mother in a grocery store anymore.

…And learning that HR died sacrificing himself (or didn't die because of some last second plan plus Earth-19 cloaking that prevents stab wounds) zaps Frost into remembering Ronnie's sacrifices and keeps her from finishing off Cisco and the crew. She's conflicted and can't turn off the Caitlin.

BANG

Dylan's not as developed as JJ or Maya, but they've implied she's a bit closed off which helps explain some of it. The moments where she states that she's trying to be the "Easy" child are all good.

Speaking of dropping threads, I went back and watched a few of the first episodes. Ray's crush is one thread I'm happy they dropped. Obviously one-sided romances on TV only work for a short time unless they involve Tina Belcher.

Kenneth juggling was a great touch.

Psych didn't have an extreme drop-off like Buffy or Heroes, but the last 2 years were somewhat uneven with great episodes spiced in. The finale was perfect in every way.

I'm old enough to remember when Al Gore called his opponents the "extra-chromosome right wing" and pretty much nothing happened to him. Same with people mocking Trump and Palin's kids. After working in the social work/disability field for decades it's painfully clear to me jerks come in all shapes and political

That was my thought when I moved into my house. It's a nice place, but I have a friend with CP who visits my city now and then for surgeries. If they decide to stop by I'll throw together a makeshift ramp before I move one of those electric wheelchairs around. Those things weigh a ton.

Dylan can be a touch too Louise Belcher at times, which is perfect for Bob's Burgers but maybe a little too much for this show. They're worked with it quite a bit to have her fit in better.

Check it out now, funk soul bruvver.
