No mention of the fact that Felicity used Pandora to narrow the search for Prometheus' mother and that the show seems to veer in the direction of displaying Felicity's use of it as some sort of addiction relapse, because she's hiding it from Dig and Oliver?

Reading that Urman planned to kill off Michael earlier (prob last season before the finale) explained to me so much of the mini-stalemate I felt the show got into around ep 33 last season (and frankly during the 'who-will-Jane-pick' eps too). This episode is a breath of fresh air, which hopefully (probably) will…

Last ep:
"Lance – And stop calling me Hoss"
This ep:
"Rene – Imma call everyone Hoss"

Snowfrost!

Well, this is the show where:
Iris – I wanna be more than just a girlfriend, sister or daughter
Writers – But ya ain't tho. Ya ain't

Fave cameo: Mr. Kim!!!!!!! Hands down.

Yakov, I'm calling you Luka from now on (sorry had to; actually like it – Luka and Lorelai)

I'm guessing Mike as his importance + presence was increased significantly in this episode. Can't imagine anyone actually dying. Also, since Langdon is alive, once they solve everything, I guess Kirkman will be stepping down?

Rip's American accent made me think he's sporting time-displaced memory loss? So many great humourous moments this ep (including the above mentioned Jax-Ray): the Bonnie & Clyde was great, but the pan to Nate and Ray standing there all hapless – priceless. Also, the repulsive Darhk had me laughing:
Thawne: More like,…

This is the first time I've sat down to watch Flash and Arrow episodes, wanting to get Flash over with so I could see what was gonna happen on Arrow. That is a monumental change. I started watching Arrow because of the crossovers with The Flash – because I loved the Flash.

OK so… still holding onto my theory about HR; something's fishy. The prolonged West family issues still seem to me an attempt at making Iris relevant. I just… ugh, they should be able to do something with her.

I found it very moving when Lorelai mentioned a son and Luke responded he has Jess. So beautiful after all we've seen them go through (Jess & Luke). Yes, Weil's portrayal is the same, but for her to spew the first body shaming bit was incredibly disappointing. C'mon, Palladinos. We shake it off, but why you wanna be…

SNART RETURNING?!?! mimimimimimimimimi!
'Barry, that's just a weird newspaper article' – I like funny, grounded Oliver which Barry really needs right now. And Oliver staying behind with Barry and sharing his feelings. Aw.

I found that appalling too, a Sanctimonious Jane moment. Let's not Rory her, show.

Always accidentally call him Sean Grunberg in my mind

Also to Mr. McNutt, thank you for this review. It's really well done.

Am I alone in feeling that Rory is a complete non-character?

To quote the EW review:
"How much Logan did anyone really want?"
I'll answer that for you: MORE LANE!!!!!!!
10000 times more Lane!!!!
And Jess. And… (am never gonna stop this):
Dave. Freaking. Rygalski!

Was I alone in noticing that Curtis made it to the top of the salmon ladder and seemingly is good at it now?
