Well I was absolutely glad they didn't end it with Sherlock getting high. I had already imagined Joan calling while he was just staring off into space in the most cliche "he's too busy doing drugs to answer his phone" scene possible. My hope is they approach it the inevitable arc with a great deal of subtlety.

Willy Wonka's brutal purge of the Hornsnozzlers and Whangdoodles from Loompaland is perhaps the most necessary prequel ever.

Meh.. "Castle" had two wedding dresses in it's finale earlier this week.

Thanks for the comment on the commentators' commentary. In general I assume everything under the review in a SHIELD article is a couple hundred pages of alternative names for Agent Ward. I'll re-evaluate my assumptions in Season 2.

No mention of "Hey Ho Friends! The enemy approaches!"??? WTF!
Or the fact that the "big gun" was the exact same gun Coulson had when Loki killed him… this time around he knows what it does. Or even Deathlok heading off to walk the lonely road Bill Bixby style. They also didn't back down from Ward definitely being a bad…

This is my favorite episode. Easy Co. finally gets back on track after getting the shit kicked out of it pretty constantly since Normandy. Speirs was introduced earlier as a guy who may or may not have mowed down unarmed prisoners. Here we see he is indeed a badass, though thankfully not the psychopathic kind. My…

First seasons are rocky, though honestly even the case of the week episodes weren't as awful as people like to paint them. If you didn't stick with it well you missed out. I'm sure the Distinguished Competition has cooked up a suitably serious and angsty show with an amazing cast where every week the writing puts The…

Well Mar-Vell was an alien. Coulson is human, he just got a blood transfusion from an alien. If anything Coulson has swiped Carol Danvers' origin story. I don't think they'll be turning Clark Gregg into Ms. Marvel though.

I've always loved the "theme song" I guess you'd call it of the ticking digital clock in between commercials. I mean half the time the characters are doing incredibly mundane shit like driving through traffic, but that clock sound just makes you feel like this is one freaking intense red light we're stopped at!

Can't be more than one or two episodes of Kate vs Jack. She's already FemJack in all but name, cold-cocking a drug dealer and threatening to let his enemies rip him out of the car. I was half hoping she'd say "Dammit!" when Jack slipped into the building.

I remember back when this first aired.. all the fledgling internet review sites (well the ones that bothered to cover animation) were disappointed that the Captain Marvel episode was largely a simple slugfest. This episode did succeed in getting me to read some Captain Marvel though, allowing me to appreciate his…

I didn't think goblins, but I didn't think Mycroft Holmes either. The previous Braavosi had a memorable Mediterranean flair.

Waaaaaaaay back in Season 1 Arya spied on a secret meeting between Varys and the guy Dany and her brother were staying with before she married Drogo. So he's probably always been on Team Taergaryn. The one anomaly being that he apparently sent Jorrah to spy on and potentially assassinate her, my guess he only did that…

I think you are on to something with the chin scar.. though Snow's capture was largely stock footage from Season 1. Nobody consciously references the Ewoks, it's like one step away from referencing Jar Jar!

I was extremely surprised how enjoyable this episode(s) was(were). Emma anchoring a 2 hour adventure is far from a sure thing, but Jennifer Morrison turned in probably the best performance she's ever done on this show. She sold the heck out of her reactions to seeing her parents meet and Rumple in hobgoblin mode. In…

I never really liked Theon. He was a highborn jerk, now he's pitiable eunuch slave. It's a pretty impressive acting job, but "what horrible thing will they do to him this week?" is a bit one note.

The way Peter Dinklage and Charles Dance played that scene I'm inclined to think Tyrion was resigned to spending his remaining days on the Wall, up till the moment Shae walked in. That was the last straw, a humiliation he would not suffer quietly. I saw the trial by combat as less of a last chance for justice and more…

One peculiar thing about Garibaldi that always fascinated me was the fact that Jerry Doyle has the exact same hair as Bruce Willis. Season 1 it's almost identical to Die Hard 1 by Season 5 it's the chrome dome.

Maybe not CBS, but Fox is definitely interested.

Well you certainly got clicks from the headline. Though seeing you are up to x7 on the passive aggressive copy/paste and over half the comments are either "WTF Spoilers!" or "Quit whining about spoilers!" it seems that the actual content of the article has been somewhat overshadowed.
