Wes and Annalise. I'm ready. Do it show, you know you want to. Laurel and Wes remain my favourite undercover badasses. This show is so ridiculous and I'm into it.

Enjoyed this episode. The show is at its best when it really hones in on a range of different relationships and plays its core themes across them. I've found the last couple of episodes a little too Clarke-heavy (not a hugely bad thing but I'm here for the ensemble) and it's made it a bit irritating to watch. Now

Really love Dotty's fighting style. Proto-black widow for the win. t'll be so much fun to see her and Peggy fight each other.

Eh, he was pretty sexist. Even saying "What is this, a chick-lit novel?" is a sexist insult in and of itself. He wouldn't say the same thing to a young man with the same level of relative inexperience as Iris. Sure, he might insult him as well because Mason seemed to have a big head and think very little of someone

I genuinely don't understand what you mean by 'weak' in this instance? How is Bellamy developing feelings of a romantic nature for Raven and vice versa 'weak'? If you ask me, Bellamy kowtowing to everything Clarke says and basically becoming her serving boy is weakness. Raven had sex with Bellamy because at the time,

I need to re-watch this but I really enjoy how this show allows characters to grapple with the weight of a thing. Before I quit The Vampire Diaries, one of my big frustrations with post-S3 was how increasingly problematic and fraught and often quite dreadful the characters became and how rarely they dealt with

Honestly, I signed up for Ichabod and Abbie witness adventure heroics in the same way that I'd sign up for Sherlock and Watson or Mulder and Scully. Goffman's obsession with Katrina is changing the entire premise of the show - the same premise that is the heart of the show. And I'm not here for it. I think I'll pause

Personally, I'm hoping the tiresome Angie is a deep cover agent, don't really care for which side, but anything to stop her from being this blandly peppy caricature she currently is (as much as I do appreciate Peggy having some form of friendship) and the show should use Fonseca's action skills somehow, surely. This

Taraji is just amazing, so magnetic. Besides the present day murder plot, I'm into all the intricate relationships the pilot set up. This is the soapy, ridiculous fun I needed from TV this year. I can't wait for more.

The actual Marvel universe, both comics and MCU have never lacked diversity though? I mean you can use that argument with shows like Mad Men or The Hour, but even then, there were people of colour in the advertising and television industries at the time, they just wouldn't have been as visible. How can you apply that

Hm, I don't think having no POC in the workplace in a show that is based on comic books is necessarily realistic or expected at all. This show is an offshoot of Captain America, a movie which featured the Howling Commandos, a team of war heroes that had two men of colour (also in the comics). Whatever the real life

I love Hayley Atwell a great deal and she makes a fantastic Peggy, I could watch eight seasons of this with no trouble. I really enjoyed the brutality of the fight scenes and the social commentary of women at the time. I agree, the show could definitely use more diversity because it's almost blindingly white. The tone

Bellamy was giving orders and even tapped Abby's shoulder when she wasn't giving them a straight answer; Raven just does whatever she wants because she knows how to neutralise all the tech that's supposed to keep people immobile anyway and she doesn't understand the word 'no'; Clarke has done nothing but lead and even

I'm hoping for Clarke and Raven to hook up. Bisexual/Pansexual women who are also the lead and a pivotal primary character on the show? I mean, it'd be perfect. I'm also rooting for Thelonius/Kane, and Monty/Miller.

They should probably realise by now that they can't control these kids. Between Clarke, Raven and Bellamy, they didn't have a chance.

I thought that was brilliantly in-character though. Clarke doesn't often like to face the monster in herself or in the people she loves, it's others (Lincoln most poignantly in this episode, but before this Anya and Finn actually) who've either reminded her or pointed it out to her or she's been faced with the

Honestly, Lindsey Morgan and Eliza Taylor are two of the best actresses in their age group I've seen in a long while. The two of them made this episode in different ways and it was something else just to watch them on-screen being these flawed, emotional, full-fleshed, dynamic, dangerous characters that we often just

Ah, okay. I see them to be really in-character in terms of their reactions and it's made me appreciate, a little, that the show's so consistent with how I understood Clarke, Bellamy et al. last season and committed to actually letting these people be characters, warts and all. But different strokes. I hope they handle

I don't see her as forgiving anything (yet), but the show has really limited her point of view on pretty much anything central to the main plot and it's a really strange choice. She keeps missing episodes and it's really jarring and unfortunate as she was my favourite. But I agree with dustrack on Raven's 'just get on

Hm, to your second paragraph, that's not strictly true. Clarke was justifying the Groundercide left and right in this episode. The Sky People's own justice system has forgiven it. Bellamy put it down to an act of war. The only person who was very vocal about Finn's act in a negative way and has reason to continue
