Translating Ylsa's notes accurately, unlike Google Translate, that would be one skill. London underworld contacts too. She's probably the character who can totally legally get a short-notice, well-paid cash-paying job in most cities, no questions asked if they need cash. Nomi will soon, so will Will.

I think he's an older sensate (in the sense his cluster was birthed longer ago). We see their power and control growing with experience. Jonas seems able to do still more. We don't really know what Ylsa can do. Whispers can do even more because he's had even more time to learn how.

Not clearly to date. It's all been unarmed martial arts on reasonably level surfaces so she hasn't kicked someone over a cliff or similar, chopped their head off with a machete, sword or anything. Likewise she hasn't gone back to make sure a downed foe is dead. Although I'm not a fighter, I imagine if you're fighting

After Ylsa's warning last ep, we seem to have definitive proof Jonas is not to be trusted is how I took that.

All of the characters, as well as their movie roles (Lito as the telenovela actor, Will as the movie cop etc) fill a sort of societal niche. Capheus is the caring son, Sun is the daughter who sacrifices all for the family, Kala as the woman caught between career and marriage and so on. Lito and Nomi between them do

People got paid to make a lot of episodes… and seasons. Presumably either people watched it or the creative team had some really good (but time sensitive) blackmail material.

Shows for the BBC are typically written for 30m or 1h slots because there's no adverts on the BBC (there's a bit off that for continuity announcements) but you probably lose 2m from that time. On other channels you're closer to the US average time, although we have less time for adverts.

There is no way to sensibly comment on this without spoilers except to say your opinion is noted and it will be interesting to see if you change it or feel it is confirmed over the remaining episodes.

The core cast of Constantine (which I know wasn't a Netflix show) were all contracted for 5 seasons too. It didn't seem to help them much.

Of course they call it Netflix' first creative misfire. They can then elide that with "but it's from the Wachowski's so what do you expect?" and all is right in their world.

I didn't watch Daredevil (I might get around to it) but I'm specifically seeking the Sense8 comments out. But I might not bother if I didn't a) love the show, b) enjoy reading comments after the event and c) I wasn't rewatching it anyway. I'm not quite caught up the second time around but it's not spoiling it for me,

It also gently or extremely twists many of them. For example, Riley's seamy London gangster movie has suddenly moved to Iceland, got a tragic backstory and a huge loving family network that you never see in that genre. Cinderella doesn't doubt her love for the prince and certainly doesn't fancy a 'demon' or have to

Capheus is in a JCVD movie. You've got most of the colour. He's going to be faced with a challenge to do the right thing or the easy thing - you know the format.

If she's seriously working at a high level in big pharma as is implied, she's probably got at least a masters degree if not a doctorate so she might not have finished studying until 25 or older. Depending on the family and the suitor it might help put off the "old maid" status a bit.

True but I felt the extent of the reaction wasn't that surprising. It was on the top end but not totally unexpected. I guess, as well, my story-teller head was thinking Kala's life needed some real shock in it so Papaji's attack seemed like the obvious one when I saw him just outside the temple.

It's foreshadowed quite a bit, there's the scene about paying the priests to shorten the ceremony and "how long to make it take no time" and a discussion between Kala and her father about Rajan's family been very secular to name just two.

Scott is fairly unlikely, yes but not completely impossible. She could have suspicions it's Scott, he's got the right kind of enthusiasm to be a Neolutionist after all. But Ferdinand is still my preferred shooter.

Possible. But someone in the building she sees everyday (whether we see them or not) would be a possibility too. Hence, if it's later than we think, Scott is back in the frame.

Corrected, thank you.

Corrected and thanks.
