Ok, I see what you're getting at now and understand more completely. Sorry for being slow on the uptake.

Cheat. Kill the whole rotten lot of them.

While you're probably right if you're sticking to American, Mexican, Kenyan, Korean, Icelandic and Indian, you're really telling me it couldn't have worked with some Beatles or Stones in there? Or some Daft Punk probably if you want something modern. The first two are Britsh of course and I can't remember what brand

She press play, then it's the song they choose for him to sing at the karaoke bar is the way it's cut together. We don't see clocks or anything to tell a sequence but Wolfgang doesn't like the song, it's the girls sitting with Felix that urge him to sing it.

I'm desperately trying not to run into Godwin's Law but the Wachowski's have said in interview one of the themes of the show is connectedness/disconnectedness and we've already had reference to the ethics of fighting and killing with heightened empathy and being sensate.

She might never get interesting to you - tastes will differ after all and that's OK. She got engaging for me, and important in certain ways but never interesting enough to make a movie on her own account.

There are times when I thought many of the 8 were the most isolated and disconnected for different reasons. Lito is certainly up there but I think he's built so many walls and lives with Hernando and his real emotions in such a cloistered world that affects his connection to the cluster too.

I don't have the time right now, work is a bit hectic, but I'm going to go back and rewatch it more slowly too.

It's temporary although it takes a while for them to work out the parameters and I'll avoid the spoilery details.

I'm not sure I'd have give up but it would have been a much harder watch with a week between episodes for sure. I still feel it's more like a 12+ hour movie than a TV show, and so some of the comments about the structure of this episode ring oddly to me because an act of a film doesn't need that episodic structure.

Well they've never looked into the immune side of it in fairness. And given the zombies' terrible circulation I'm not that surprised. I wonder if they mount any competent immune response at all in fact? But they're not going to answer that question because much though I might be interested in, 99% of the audience will

The interview with the writer says that Blaine enjoys being able to taste food again too much to go back to being a zombie through choice. He can still run the brains scam, he just can't make new zombies himself.

She works in a morgue and is exposed to blood from probably contaminated sources all the time. People with a lovely range of communicable blood-borne diseases from HIV through the Hepatits viruses to malignant cancers to whatever. Her refusing to give blood is actually a responsible choice and the surgery/trauma team

It doesn't even pretend to be even-handed over the season but Sun, Caephas, Kala, Nomi and Lito, all heavily under-represented sectors in TV-land get big chunks of air time and their own stories as well as contributing in other places. I can't speak to how well they're all done but the bits I do know suggest they're

SPOILER Will's reaction on 'meeting' Lito is also priceless. Technically a spoiler because it's later on. "I don't think we've met?" "We made love." "Oh? OOOH!"

SPOILERS Wolfgang's skill set rather overlaps Sun's and Capheus' at least the skills they've all used so far. There are skills he displays with modern weapons they don't obviously have so there's potential in seasons to come if Netflix gives us more though. I can't see Wolfgang needing serious bookkeeping skills but

Agreed. He has too be so perfect for her ambivalence to make sense. If he wasn't just so wonderful you'd root for him to dump him but this way you understand she feels conflicted and confused about not wanting to marry him when he appears to be such a catch.

This is the only show I've ever binge watched. It just pulled me in and I couldn't get enough of it. I loved the character-based story-telling, finding out things as they did instead of having chunks of exposition and so on.

It could be Scott. Ruddy likes killing people. Why didn't he kill Scott? Scott is understandably nervous because he knows how unstable Rudy is and Rudy's manhandling poor Denise.

They said an experiment in Europe, I guess that implies a European clone too since she died. I missed a country, but it might have been Poland. Whether they're Leda clones or not isn't clear, if they are Cosima is keeping secrets from her seestras, or at least we've never seen her tell anyone.
