“This isn’t the show’s fault...” — presumably this show has a writer who had to peck that line into a keyboard. I lose respect for anyone who purposely uses that orange fuckhead’s terminology, ironically or not. They had a choice, and they said it.

I definitely found myself having to look past the visual casting, because the kid did such a good job capturing the essence. Probably for the best: less distracting. At least for me.

C+? Gonna have to disagree pretty damned hard on that: they told a surprisingly beautiful story around someone I wasn’t too interested in having showcased. I enjoy Elvis, mind you, but he feels kind of a cliche subject as far as history goes. While the episode’s connection to the overall arc was tenuous, as a…

It did not originate on Buffy. It was just reintroduced to pop culture there. ;)

That’s not specifically a Buffy trope: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheEndingChangesEverything

This whole show just feels like the writer’s room has a hat with plot points and each week they just yank out 3-4 pieces of paper and write the story around that. Then the pieces go back in the hat, and it’s shook up a bit.

The original is iconic as hell, but damn if I don’t love the other intros even more. :}~~

Happy some folks liked this. We’ve all got different expectations, and maybe you see stuff I don’t.

We’re firmly steering, once again, into last year’s mind-numbing “Iris is gonna die and we can’t stop it!” type territory with this season’s once-promising DeVoe arc.

I should have expected that, but I didn’t. Glad it happened. :D

That would be AMAZING.

I recall that scene. You’re right, that was definitely a couple eps back.

Though once in a while we DO find a scenario where some other market gets something ahead of schedule... or an episode of a show is provided ahead of time for whatever reason, and it leaks, so it’s not impossible. Just... not likely in this…

Miller kept me watching Legends even as I was riffing, making fun of it the whole time. Getting rid of him at the end was basically the show’s way of showing me the door.

But... I just couldn’t help but pick up S2 and see where it went. And sure enough, things improved. Felt like much of the criticism they faced was…

I was REALLY liking the Izzy Bowin character. She had personality, and her style was off the fuckin’ charts. What a massive disappointment.

Kind of like the whole slogged out arc, so far.

This is the kind of thing that makes 13 episode seasons of TV shows so appealing — yeah, you get less of a good thing, but it tends…

What a shame; this looks fantastic. I have a Rift, but I outright refuse to buy platform-exclusive titles. I want the entire ecosystem to thrive, not just one company over another.

It’s these reasons, and more, that’s caused me to notice the flaws in the film, yet completely not give a shit about them. Loved this flick. I don’t usually see them a second time in the theater, but I might give that another go this weekend.

This is going to bend some minds, no doubt, but let’s see where they take the story before assuming Barry did something dumb, or that DeVoe’s plan makes no sense.

Those ideas may be completely true, but there’s room for it to make sense when the full story is revealed.

(No, I don’t have my hopes up on that, but let’s…

I was kind of disturbed to see Claire STAB then SHOOT that guy who wasn’t necessarily “bad”, just lonely and protective. He even went back to get her medical supplies so she wouldn’t die. (Or so he thought.) So she kills him to escape?

A friend suggested this was basically her choosing her sick kid over this random…

The budget is probably the bottleneck. Gotta use what you’ve got. And sometimes that’s your own backyard. :P

This seems like an interesting one for the courts, actually.

While yes, technically nobody died, in the end, you can’t say it’s murder, exactly... But surely there must (eventually) wind up being some kind of punishment for anyone using temporal technology for this kind of thing.

Mudd was more than happy to let people …
