This is the third time Jonah Nolan tasked director Fred Toye with an episode where a lead character gets killed off. Makes for one hell of a résumé, though.

'Are you watching closely', indeed.

Big time. Ditto for someone like James L. Brooks in The Simpsons.

No problem. Bruckheimer doesn't write any of the shows he produces though. Don't think he ever has, for many years.

The show's always been very charming, but with this season it's really cranked it up. They've really course corrected a lot of the small things, and fleshed out the characters better, which really plays on the actors strengths

Bruno Heller's not on this show. You may've confused him with Jerry Bruckheimer.

I JUST REALIZED THIS.

Anyone caught the (somewhat) nod to The Mask of Zorro? The Confederate guy who was about to brand Teddy, looked very similar to Captain Love from that film (whose actor is now plunging hands into hearts in the DCWverse).

Nolan pointed out in an interview with EW, that you'll find out why they can't do that, in episode 8.

Folks pegged as early as episode 2, that the little boy was a younger Ford. With this show, think it's not so much as able to guess a twist, but more of the why of it all.

The one where it's revealed that she killed Finch's first hired gun, yes.

Rewatched the scene with Ford & Bernard in 'The Stray', when he tells him about Arnold. Did it to try to confirm a suspicion I had with the sequence in the cabin.

Only those with 'Mesa Gold' points.

That it was. Though I have special fondness for 'I Might Be Wrong', in RAM.

Be sweet if the series finale, eventually, has 'Analyse' (which was just by Thom Yorke). The Nolan bros. used it for The Prestige.

Probably Paranoid Android in the season finale.

Nolan picks all the music himself. Dude's a major fan. PoI had both 'I Might Be Wrong', & 'Exit Music' in the third season.

OH MY GOD.

True, they haven't, but it's a nice way to deflect the dual narrative thing (for the timebeing).

They're going out of their way to disprove the two timeline thing, with this new wrinkle of having more than one host with the same likeness. That was a really welcome twist.
