We get to see the consequences for failure, and they are much worse than just the Hawk couple's deaths.

Yeah, she caved so suddenly on the idea of Oliver seeing her son that I didn't even understand what she was saying when she was laying out that no one could know about him. I thought she was just telling him to keep the secret in general, not providing a condition for visitation, because why would she allow it when…

Well, obviously they can't have Barry ghost a quarter way through every episode. I'm just saying it was clever HERE.

The clever thing about Barry's ghosting is that its now-understood foreshadowing makes the magic reset button of time travel completely acceptable, allowing us to witness the bad ending and raise the stakes.

I was going to give it an A−, but after seeing this review it became a retaliatory A. Maybe this is Sava's secret plan.

I don't really buy that anyone understands the rules of time travel paradoxes well enough to say "Alright, there's the proof that we should give up on trying to save the planet."

I've found this season so much more enjoyable than the first, and it's allowed me to come to terms with what the show is and isn't. Now I actually look forward to it instead of ridiculing it. This was a solid episode.

I've got to admit that I really liked the moment the episode cut out on. Not the melodramatic montage of all the characters in their various situations in the last couple of minutes, but the final moment itself, with Sam calling out for his mom like the walking disaster we knew he would be. It was the right…

The con idea occurred to me too, but she sure was shaking when she held that knife at Morgan. Seems like the head injury was real.

Well, no, the problem isn't that Rick's plans fuck up, it's that he has terrible luck, which is because this is a TV show whose writers think it would be boring if he ever succeeded and people were safe for more than five minutes, so they orchestrate the timing of events so as to maintain the misery. Rick's plans are…

"That's what you think…………….[dramaticpause]………….but you're wrong."

Don't get me wrong; it was clever—just also very silly. I'm perfectly fine with that!

I just mean that anyone who has ever downloaded Audacity could easily mix those three files together and not need to dedicate a bunch of different computers to playing them simultaneously.

As an audio editor, I found it hilarious when Grace used three different computers to simulate an office environment.

What's really annoying to me about Heroes Reborn is that the good guys' plan and the bad guys' plan are not mutually exclusive. There's no reason why Erica can't establish her just-in-case reboot future city while the evos work together to figure out how to use their powers to stop the catastrophic natural event from…

It wouldn't hurt, but too many belts/buckles/zippers is the main criterion.

Laurel is a modern Final Fantasy character.

Weird. I thought they lacked energy and dynamism. Maybe I was just spoiled by Agents of SHIELD's opening Ward fight this week.

That was a weak episode. The action was watered down, the character beats felt forced, and some of the plot didn't even make sense: Diggle just happened to check the ID of the one Ghost who happened to be his brother? Why? No one ever takes off their masks to see who they are, and Diggle didn't give a reason for…

Whoops! Sorry I liked a thing.
