I think a B+ is a little generous. This show has improved, yes, and I really want it to succeed for Buffy's sake, but it hasn't quite broken through yet. They did tone down Williams and largely abandon the Andrew/Sydney plot, so that's improvement. I hope CBS renews this because it could be an amazing show, it just

It's gotten a lot better considering the pilot and second episode were pretty mediocre. A lot of interesting recurring characters, some awesome twists, improved action sequences. Agreed that it isn't at Arrow or Nikita levels just yet. The lead character Stephen is a real drag compared to John or Cara. The fact that

Oh my god. I forgot that Nyssa even existed. TOO MANY AWESOME CHARACTERS, ARROW. STAHP.

Gotham will exist in a separate universe, so in theory each show can have the entire collection of characters available. Unfortunately, though, WB will probably restrict Arrow from having most major Batman characters for fear of over-saturation or whatever. I doubt we ever get Batman, Robin, Joker, Penguin, Catwoman,

China White? Or did Oliver take advantage of her while she was subdued before handing her over to Starling City PD?

I don't have a problem with Waller being skinny here. I do think though that the actress is doing at best an okay job. I mean, come on, this is a juicy role. A few of her line deliveries have been funny or snarky, but she just seems a little bored most of the time. I can only really compare Cynthia Addai-Robinson to

This episode was amazing. Blacktop and Gumshoe felt like one of the 30 Rock parodies in the best way. That ending was heartbreaking. Cougar Town definitely upped its game in the second half of this season.

Anyone else get the feeling that Magnus wanted a little more than a bromance with Dean? He wanted him around because he was lonely, he chained him up, told him that "holding the sword" would "get better the next time", etc

ARROW'D CANARY'D

Guys. GUYS. SO MUCH ROOT. THIS SHOW. THIS SHOW. I CAN'T EVEN.

I think the network is too permanently damaged by the likes of Gossip Girl and 90210 to fully transition to a genre network. Too many people will refuse to watch a CW show, so they balance out genre shows with their soapy crap.

I'm excited for this. As a fan of the CW's genre shows like Arrow, Supernatural, and Nikita, this sounds like it will fit in quite nicely. Plus, Paige Turco! Kelly Hu! Henry Ian Cusick! Cute blonde Australian girl!

But was Zoey really attacked by a hawk, or was it the flying monkey she's been banging?

Octavia Spencer's first appearance was fantastic. They've definitely hit diminishing returns with the Regina character.

The Tomorrow People has been really good. This show definitely found itself by focusing on everyone who isn't Stephen. It's too bad the ratings kept declining and it's being shipped off to Monday, probably to be cancelled.

My great-uncle was a carny in Canada in the 1930s and 40s.

So this means Elsbeth's spin-off will be about the firm Tascioni & Hecht? Or, TH as Will would call it.

Agreed about Michelle Fairley. There are also some great scenes between Katrina Bennett and Donna. That cookie conversation was the best:
"You're remembered fondly at the D.A.'s office"
"I'm remembered fondly everywhere!"

That final scene was really sweet.

It had to be a nod to The Americans because the Mossad cover of a travel agency is stuck in the 1980s.
