It's on Syfy (God that's a stupid spelling…) And like Alana and quantaman said, there are pretty legitimate reasons why she feels her future is totes cool. Not the least of which is that it seems to be working for the vast majority of people that she herself knows, and the Liber8 terrorists are the making things worse

I dunno about that first sentence, Phil. I think this season of Person of Interest tops The Good Wife's third season. But then they're two vastly different types of dramas— The Good Wife can bleed into soap opera, and while it remains tasteful even in the "whose sleeping with who!" episodes most of the time, it

Machines and women?

I kind of laughed at the fact that Lionel wasn't included. I really wanted to see a "definitely not a threat" designation in Samaritan's interface.

I'd argue just Root. The others kind of blindly follow her in high pressure situations more recently, but Finch's insistence in the "Trial" that the Machine only gives the government (and his team) a nudge with a number was pretty spot on. The past few episodes have made it pretty explicit that Finch, at the very

I still don't get why this show was ever considered unbearable. Maybe middling and mediocre, but even the first few episodes had some solid stuff— the Ward and Fitz mission episode was actually one of my favorites of the season, and that was what, episode 8 or 9? This episode was actually a pretty solid way to end

It was kind of a rocky ride, but towards the end of the season this show really started to impress me. Finale was more subdued than expected, but I am kind of glad they kept Mikael bottled up for next season. Poor Davina, though, she's not going to be able to keep him leashed when Esther hits town. Also, yay, five

That entire scene with Hersh was win.

I was not that impressed with Collier before this episode, I really didn't think they would craft such a believable backstory that would provide realistic motivation for his leading Vigilance and which would fit with the theme of the show. I should know not to underestimate this show.

Real missed opportunity for the header image's alt text to say "One does not simply eat breakfast!"

I, too, was surprised by the intensity of the Cami and Kieran scenes, and Klaus' unqualified benevolence. Though of course, a lot of the reason he's so kind to Cami has to do with him not really giving a crap about Kieran. Calling Marcel to comfort her, seemingly without asking for Marcel's soul in return, was

Agent Davedid Betrayus

I realize you've clarified your statements a bit more below, but I think it's important to realize just how many men are victimized as well as the unique mental trauma they have to deal with— shit like "Lucky Bastard Syndrome, or people simply thinking you're gay if you're abused by a non familial male.

Saul Rubinek played basically the same character in both shows, so we've got the potential for a crossover!

You forgot:

I feel bad for all the people who watched this show last night instead of that other show that airs at 9 starring an Ashmore twin. That show the AV Club should definitely cover for its final season. You know, wacky sci fi hijinks? Rhymes with "Bearmouse fur team?" Okay it's Warehouse 13. Damnit I need a place to talk

Classic Schrö!

F*#& Yeah, Crazy Aunt Kate!

I'm torn. On the one hand, I agree that the episode deserves leeway because it's quite self-congratulatory and not really a regular episode while at the same time not being an "event" episode in the traditional premiere/midseason/season finale thing. But on the other hand, I kinda don't like where they went with

I had no idea Sean Bean had a brother before seeing this movie… But yeah, this was pretty bland. And OH GOD, Keira Knightley's American accent was atrocious.
