Remember they still have the backstory of how he got cool with the Russians. That could be good.

I saw him as a cowboy in a Fresh Off the Boat guest role and went "Where do I know him fro-oh, it's Thea's eventual rebound from DJ Turn Down For What!"

Weekly Scoreboard
I'd say a B is the right grade for this average episode. Arrow still scores the win for a 6-3 advantage, because a forgettable episode is better than last night's dumpster fire of a Flash episode that I'd give a C+, salvaged by Gustin and VanSanten's strong performances with the weak material.

This is an instance of what I now refer to as "The HIMYM Problem": Just because the character has had time within the show to get over a loved one doesn't make the audience's tonal whiplash any less severe.

Yeah, for me this was the worst episode of the whole show. Plotless episodes don't bother me once in a while, but there's just not a lot of forward momentum at this point in the run, so this felt like a low point rather than a goofy detour.

We can hope, but this isn't a show that's exactly subtle about those kind of things. If she knew, we'd know.

And the shame of it is they could have had her realize he's The Flash on her own (she's smart after all, considering she got accepted to that program thing) and still have her leave (IE, he's not ready to tell me, so he's not at the point in his life where he's ready to settle down, or some drama that is genuine and

Not being interesting wasn't really Voyager's problem, at least for me (it's a lot more interesting than TNG, for instance). It's problem was never cashing in on the interesting elements of its broader narrative. There's about 15 Voyager episodes that I could watch infinite times and still enjoy, with the issue being

It's certainly worth watching, but after the hype I read for it I was kind of disappointed. There's a large part of it that sticks to the procedural element and drags out any kind of relevant answers, then once it switches, the time travel gets pretty messy. Second season finale is really good though.

I'm in the minority that didn't love the finale to The 100's second season, but despite that it made my top 5 shows last year. If it were on FX or something, it'd be so hyped. Instead, it's somehow underappreciated even when all the critics point out the good stuff we're missing out on.

"Nevertheless, the announcement will come as a relief to House fans, who have been waiting for word on the show’s future since its second season concluded in early September."
They rebooted House?

Pretty funny reading this after 2015. The landscape couldn't be more different.

I did find it funny that her husband ended up totally irrelevant.

S2 of TNG still sucks but there's a couple really good ones in there to get you to S3. I think TNG is kind of overrated but loved Measure of a Man.

Watched the final 2 seasons of Continuum on Monday. The last five minutes of the finale really pissed me off, not because it was a bad ending, but because they used said plot thread as such an emotional pull, only to flip off the viewer at the end. Pretty much the definition of a decent show. Some good, some messy.

Yeah this is the first time I can remember. If the NFL cared anything about fairness (ha!), should be one conference on the first Saturdays, the other on the first two Sundays. Equal rest for all.

It's so good. Not sure anything tops Nikita going into the recruits base mid-Season 1, but it reinvents itself multiple times way better than Alias ever could pull off.

2015 was kind of a "quantity not quality" year for me, getting through a lot of second tier shows (Alias, Nikita, Scrubs, etc) by watching them at a faster playback speed. 2016 I want to finally get to West Wing, Futurama, DS9 (almost through S1 there), The Shield, Justified, and get up to date on The Leftovers and

I've watched a total of 20 minutes of this season (part 1 of the 2 parter with HRG time travelling or something, forgot to go back), but I saw the headline of "continues to mark time" and thought, "Aren't there only 2 episodes left???"
