That's because she's pretty much for suresies not dead.

Laura Dern…Gillian Anderson…Sandra Bullock? Maybe Julianne Moore?

This is supposed to be taking place immediately after The Winter Soldier, which appeared to take place in summer. It wouldn't make any sense for even northern Ontario to have any snow.

I'm inclined to cut her a lot of slack because (like everyone else on this show) she's been given incredibly boring lines and no opportunity to shine. They ALL seem boring and bland, including Coulsen (who was great in the movies). The only characters on this show with any magnetism or spark seem to be FitzSimmons…

That seems to be the majority opinion, but I found Jessa's storyline oddly touching. Jessa is completely lost, but I don't find her uninteresting. In a way, she's stuck swirling around the toilet but not quite flushing down, and it feels realistic to me.

The University of Michigan's program is #2 in the country. Getting into either program would mean Hannah was seriously talented (or at least showed serious potential). But I think we already knew that because of her book deal. Whether the show has actually *shown* her writing talent is another matter. It's kind of…

Sif mentioned that "Odin" wanted Lorelai for his army so I guess Loki is still in control. The real Odin surely would have sent Lorelai back to prison.

By its own (mediocre) standards, I thought this was an A- episode of AoS. It was a lot better than last week.

"Child sacrifice and murder? What could be wrong with that?"

Wasn't the swirling vortext just another representation of a spiral? I think it was a hallucination reflecting Rust's feeling that he had entered a black hole in that lair. And I thought the bright flair represented light shining through the darkness. Or something along those lines. (Metaphorically, of course. I know…

Oooh, I like that idea. As long as it's done subtly.

I would watch the shit out of that.

Lena Dunham and Zosia Mamet. *Puts on flame retardant shield*

Hot damn if that ending didn't win me over. Earlier in the episode, two things had annoyed me (though they were fairly minor):

The constant eye rolling is so essential to this show. Without it Rust would be a lot less palatable.

Almost *too* impressively…

It can't possibly be one of the worst things you've seen on TV in a long time, unless you don't watch a lot of TV.

"Italy sure does look a lot like California."

"This show needs to take cues from […] Arrow."

"Does that make me a shitty person?"
