That other shieldmaiden got it and saved Ragnar from more than a mere flesh wound.

Nina was working hard though. She was picking up firewood when talking to Hali. It was awkward, but if the only time people can speak with her is when she's doing nothing, she'll be voted out immediately for that reason. She was trying to contribute in another way. Hali did try to reach out to her, but the stuff with…

Joaquin and Tyler saying they had too much pride to go nude as they watched Shireen wash dishes in the nude was just hilarious. Can they have enough pride to give her some privacy if they aren't going to help and just ogle her?

The resemblance is striking.

A lot more people know something is going on though now with Andre. The security guy took him down on the table with a room full of coworkers before the paramedics came. They'll cover it up of course, but I was surprised the room wasn't cleared. It's all about saving face for Lucious.

During an episode of The Mole, they trapped people in a room one at a time and played Tiny Bubbles over and over again. One guy started to go insane. That's all I can think of when I hear the song.

I hope he's available too since he's been on The Good Wife. I don't mind seeing that face of his too often.

That's true, but they did fight in the same war. That memory seems like it would be easier to recall than the limp.

That was a really interesting note that I wouldn't have guessed. There was an episode of Chopped Canada on where the guy was OCD about keeping his station clean, but that was his story- his need to have everything together precisely- so they highlighted it.

It was an ok episode, but very little seemed to happen. There's no momentum being built right now and staying in Wessex, although it's only been a few days, is dragging things down.

There were girls in my high school that wrote INXS with the red and black lettering on their face. I'd call them pretty big fans.

The Lance family also lies to each other all the time. Laurel is no different.

I agree. Everyone in this episode was trying to explain their motivations and it just did not work. (Alasdair did a better job with the explanation than the show.) There are too many holes and while they tried to make Oliver's argument about saving Thea's soul weak because they wanted it to be about his ego in the…

Yeah, any episode where Barry gets to shine is always going to be fantastic. His singing was endearingly terrible.

That's an interesting take. It wasn't clear that Ivar was in pain at first. He was quiet when Aslaug first brought him out. It was a later scene where Ragnar thinks he's in pain.

I've been avoiding watching this after last week's terrible episode, but I did enjoy it quite a bit. Elena was the best she's been in a long time. She hasn't been given a lot to do other than be Damon's love interest in too long.

Didn't Tyler sleep with his mom? I can't remember if they showed it though. I can't really picture her.

I watched the US version. He could have felt compassion to not to kill an innocent child, even in the face of how cruel and painful the world could be for him. I'm not sure that means he actually loves him now though when he avoids the baby completely. He enjoys children, just not one of his own. There are different…

Maybe they did too many simple and expositional lines, but since it's been so long since the show was last on, I needed the reminder. I forgot about the sex princess for example.

The Greer thing is so bizarre, but since I saw your prediction of what Greer would be doing on an old review, it is pretty fun that you couldn't possibly have guessed this.
