First season Nora is perfect. Second season Nora is mainly a plot device. Third season Nora has her moments. I don't love her development, but I still want the character to be happy.

absolutely! oh my God, I miss them so much. they made episodes like the one with the missing baby Jesus bearable. we deserve a cameo on the series finale.

Yeah, since season two I feel like they go for the big, emotionally cathartic moments without caring too much about paving their way to it, dramatically (like Laurie's suicide last week, four years after she got her shit together and seemed fine up until that scene), and a lot of it feels unearned to me. There's a…

Keep in mind they treated both previous season finales as possible series finales. And they were solid, weren't they? I mean, it's absolutely reasonable to distrust Lindelof and crew, but hey, they've been doing something right with this show up until now. Just don't expect answers or anything like that.

I really have a love/hate relationship with most of the show's song choices, worst offender being that time Erika threw a rock at the Garveys' window and then the episode ended with "I Am a Rock". Like the plot itself, the soundtrack borderline ridiculous and it falls apart the second you stop to think about it, but…

The B for "International Assassin" was because, while impressive, it was completely out of what the show had established up until that point (also, it pretty much confirmed that the supernatural exists in this world and that Kevin is a Very Special Savior Figure™ and not just some dude in the midst of chaos that we're…

great to see Why Are You Ok getting the love it deserves. Such a sweet album, but I felt the reception was lukewarm.

he never goes through with it when he suffocates. only the poison drinkin' and the kennel shootin' count as actual deaths.

Never blamed him for it, just cited it as yet another work he's involved with that doesn't inspire too much confidence.

I believe you can at least understand how it was polarizing and risky, and that it is common to polarizing and risky endings to make a portion of the audience pissed off and skeptical about the writers' capabilities when it comes to ending stuff (he's also the guy from Prometheus. Let's not forget Prometheus).

I like to think that, too, but he already came up with a bunch of crazy shit last season (like the cavemen opening and the entirety of International Assassin), they aire it, and people loved it, so who knows, maybe he has cartle blanche for the ending. Also, it's not like too many people are watching it anyway (which…

What's this Holy Grail scene you're referencing?

word.

Oh, man. This show.

He was not in this episode (was he?)

I think the first season was way better, made more sense and was more moving, but I understand this is a very unpopular opinion. I love the atmosphere of an "emotional apocalypse" and the fully-realised world that sprung from the sudden departure, and how grounded and contained it was compared to season two. No one…

aka Absolutely Unbearable People Talking.

Well, it was fun. I get the criticism over the out-of-character, plot-convenient moments and I also think that Leif's rich and crazy wife might be a plot a little too crazy for this show (and wtf, Leif! Since when are you such a greedy piece of shit? The greedy part is totally unprecedented), but I still enjoyed this…

'Member they did fun and gripping teen dramas without having to resort to a mystery that looks straight out of The Killing? I 'member.

I'd definitely make this casting my death wish.
