The only thing I liked about season 5 was the first 4 episodes with Dawsons dad dying. I thought that storyline was handled really well (and it only happened because John Weasley Shipps wasn't happy where the show was going and how the adults were getting little to no screen time so he bailed). I did really like…

I wonder what Kevin Williamsons response was, since he left after season 1 and only came back to write the series finale. I did watch the finale and the part that saddened me the most was just how much everyone felt like a empty shell of what they once were and Dawson and Pacey treated eachother like strangers.

Oh,Ok, well it sounds like your a big fan of the comics. So I do want to ask how the show compares. I know the murder angle is nowhere to be found and is more or less twin peaks. But from your descriptions, It sounds like they have thrown bits and pieces from all the Eras, for example, crazy stalker Betty sounds a bit…

Oh BTW, you said you watched it recently, did you binge watch the whole show just recently?. I binged the show about 10 years ago ..up until season 5 and then it lost me and I never got around to watching the final season. Is it worth watching?.

That and the Pacey storyline with him and his father (or brother) was DC at its best. They were able to go sincere in a way that the show sometimes struggled to do (the Jen and grans storyline comes to mind as the boardered on camp in places, there were sincere moments there too but it hit the same beats a little too…

Oh absolutely, do you mean Jughead and his father being similar to Pacey and his father?. I love the retro vibe in Riverdale. I also think the writing is really good so far too, even storylines like Jugheads that feel similar, I like how nuanced they are. A lot of it is very low key. Also the accustic music that plays…

That is true, he was pouty even in those seasons, its been a while since I watched the show and the later seasons I remember more (and Dawson was so annoying and borring that I can't remember most of his scenes from the early seasons). Archie does have a little bit of a Dawson's creek vibe to it at times, especially…

WM, to be fair to James, a lot of it was just really bad writing (though I can't for the life of me, protect him on his Crying face in season 3 when Joey leaves on the yacht with Pacey, that was all him, he admitted to adlibbing the crying). Even now, going back, the first season of Dawson's Creek was a blast, not The…

wasn't that tv show cancelled a few years ago?. You've been sitting on that motorcylce in the living room for a quite a long time huh!.

Isn't old school Archie just that? Generic 1950s sitcom family parody?. I've read a few of the comics and they are all in the "honey I'm home!" style of writing.

Ugh!, Dawson was the worst!. It is a sort of apt comparison, that the main character is the most bland. Yeah, Dawson was a real jerk, and by season 4 he was a manipulator and behaved like a whiny child (that and I really don't think James Van Der Beek is a good actor..at all). Unlike him, I really like the actor who…

me too! I was over the moon when it was revealed that Skeet was playing the father (As I also thought he was amazing in Jericho). Overall it is very impressive casting, because even before skeet appeared, I kept thinking to myself "wow, the actor whom plays Jughead looks a lot like a young Skeet Ulrich!".

Well..actually that is a loaded question. See you don't have to watch the entire series if you don't want to. I will explain what I mean by this: the show runner Eric Kripke planned the show to have a five season arc, most of it was because he was afraid the show would get cancelled (and it was on the bubble for the…

Yeah that is what critics said about the show when it first came out, but do you think its still like that?. by around season 3-4 it practically dropped any degree of normalcy and went full Buffy with its angel and demon mythology and comedy episodes.

oh absolutely!..Supernatural is practically the little brother of Buffy. I was absolutely shocked that it wasn't on the list. When it was introduced, critics called the show "Buffy meets the X Files" and then it started getting way more Buffy-ish by Season 2 and full Buffy in season 3 and 4. The season plot arcs, the…

Evil Rip was starting to wear on me, he wasn't evil enough. My hope is with Rip they have wrote him out of the (personality corner) he was in. Last season the only dimension he had was he had a family and he missed them, this is very much like Mick of last season where he was too much (I'm a bad guy!, I want to kill…

Yes it cross my mind a few times before this episode too, but it never led anywhere, usually if a storyline is starting to form, you can start to see the seeds that they sow. This episode was a giant one. If they do nothing about it after this episode, its seriously a missed opportunity. But I just have a feeling, she…

After watching this episode and seeing all of the Gideon/Rip scenes, I was left with one big question: is Legends of Tomorrow going to pull a EDI?. For anyone unfamiliar, EDI is the advanced AI first introduced in Mass Effect 2. She was the AI for the ship, the Normandy. Throughout Mass Effect 2, she struck a very…

I dunno, all the outside stuff looked very studio backlot-ish. It was all pretty compact, and apart from seeing the tv rex at the end, all of Ray, Amaya and Nate's scenes felt like a episode from a 90s sci fi show, like Stargate SG1. It was all pretty much a bottle episode for the most part.

Its really unfortunate because the whole Havenrock plot was a real missed opportunity. Instead of just using it as a "felicity feels bad" plot, they could have not only opened up the world, but started her path to darkness in a more organic way. They could have had multiple cities under martial law (Military takes…
