His eyes were full-on glowing, rather than just turned blue like the zombies.

Okay, so or abandoned dead babies wouldn't have been a surprise as an ending for the episode, but that's not how the episode ended. The guy turning his sons over to the white walkers wasn't enough of a twist for you?

Andrew's not the main character, though.

Any time they reference that sketch I just get gleeful.

It's so strange that Gregory Harrison's character seems to clash with the tone of the show simply by being straightforward and level-headed about things. He thinks things through and sensibly responds to the facts at hand. Unlike literally everyone else.

I think at this point it's fair to say that Bridget is the dumbest main character in the history of television (animated and reality excepted).

Siobhan drugged Bridget in the first episode - and I've always assumed her evil cop sidekick picked her up in a boat, saving her the trouble of going ashore. Of course that is just an assumption based on the fact that she brought him to the beach house to show him around.

In your recap you missed one important thing - the Beyond the Wall segment introduced a brand-new threat, GoT's answer to Colonel Kurtz (I'm assuming), a rogue Night's Watchman who went far north and decided that he was now king of the Wildings.

Although the far more relevant piece of information to how they got found was the baffling decision to send a Roman citizen who was known to live at the temple to go and parlay, then fight. I'd thought that sending him was part of setting a trap for the Romans, but no, it was just a stupid thing to do.

Am I the only one who thought - every time the Egyptian appeared onscreen - "Hey, look, it's the Scorpion King!"

Oh, Ashur, you thought those men would be loyal to you, the guy who freed them and handed them money, not to the guy on whose authority they were freed and who gave you the money to pay them.

Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if Spartacus survived the slave revolt. After tonight's episode every villain who actually knows what he looks like is dead.

Your dad didn't have a name either?

It only gets better from here - just wait until the lady cops have to go undercover at a strip club! While Segal converses with James Hong about how to use Chinese mysticism to find a serial killer!

They all have bad eyesight but are too vain to wear glasses, and too stupid to know that contacts are an alternative?

We're pretty sure he's dead, since she stuffed his body in a trunk and locked it - also, way back, in (I think) episode 3, this Hitman called her and said that he got rid of the body because it could be traced back to him/his employer. Which is why he wanted the guy's phone so badly as well.

I love that Siobhan's new plan entirely revolves around pretending to be Bridget, telling people off, and then hoping that that particular person never talks to the real Bridget again. Not exactly airtight. Although hopefully a well-timed coma this week will keep Bridget in the dark for a few more episodes.

Don't forget the reference to The Mask - having a sequel that Jim Carrey wouldn't come back for, so it revolves around a baby instead.

The man in the wreckage was the would-be suicide bomber, hence the irony of his situation, as the only man in the would not blown up.

I'm especially not-psyched about Len Wein writing some of these - isn't he the one who wrote the story to the terrible Watchmen prequel video games?
