Game of Thrones, Friends, Terminator, Back to the Future, Twilight Zone references… you could say this episode was on fire.

Yup and that would have freed Margo Martindale for more of The Americans. Damnit CBS.

Closest thing would probably be the Millers on CBS getting an early cancellation during season 2.

Once Upon a Time in Sleepy Hollow with a less interesting red-headed witch not named Zelena casting a time-travel spell that accidentally sends the female heroine back in time. I knew this felt familiar…

Am I the only one who won't be horribly broken up if Fox does feed this show to the Cancellation Bear?

Don't insult Laurel with Barbara comparisons.

I found this episode more entertaining than usual, but I couldn't tell if that's because it's improved to the C range or fallen to the F range.

Next week is the season finale. Let that sink in for a minute. Pretty much all that happened this season was Isis getting sick.

While I disagree with The 100 being as good as Game of Thrones, I do enjoy another thing they do have in common, which is the odd buddy pairings. This season we've seen Clarke/Anya, Jaha/Murphy, and Octavia/Indra, among others.

The tooth extraction made me feel things I didn't want to feel.

I like how Laurel just carries her Black Canary costume in her lawyer bag. Now she can suit up on the go!

It wasn't jarring so much as I groaned whenever Iris was on screen.

Professor Stein after making out with Caitlin: "uhhh… that was from Ronnie!"

This episode makes Arrow's Vertigo plot look like Emmy-winning material.

This show actually benefited a lot from the reboot by being more procedural. 2.02 "Incognito" and 2.03 "Day of the Jackie" were really great Case of the Week episodes, and Poppy Montgomery is a lot more enjoyable when she isn't being melodramatic about her character's sister's unsolved murder.

This episode was fine, but I'm more excited for next week's because based on the promos it's going to be crazy. We're off to see the wizard POI Machine Night Room!

GRMM clearly replaced the Jon-Arya-Tyrion love triangle with the brewing Drogon-Rhaegal-Viserion love triangle.

The on-location shooting in NYC really shined through here. That shot of Holmes and Watson walking down the street in Long Island City from the restaurant to the office was great.

Yeah I too actually liked the case. It had more of a mystery/conspiracy theme to it compared to the standard find a body, collect the evidence, solve the murder episode.

Between Amy Hargreaves and Raza Jaffrey in the same episode, I half expected Carrie Mathison to pop up and declare the debt collection scheme part of a terrorist plot before evacuating the NYPD precinct.
