I felt like Joan was protecting her territory more than Peggy. She can trust Peggy. Why would she trust two strangers who tried to buy her off with a plant?

But as Joan said, "It's not about the money!" She wanted McCann to change, she wanted to force the Establishment to change. For half a second, she was a women's libber. Even better—she was like Peggy. I was blown away. Then she gave in and took the money. It was the right thing to do for her long-term happiness,…
I definitely would have been happy if it had just been an episode about Roger and Peggy getting trashed.
I thought that part was in character—Roger has always been encouraging/supportive of women he doesn't really know, and a dick to the women he cares about (his wives, his daughter, Joan).
And they wear balls around their necks. Ties are so old-fashioned!
I love her, but I hate the main character's interaction with her. It's sadly pathetic, and all too Feig-familiar.
"I say correctly?"
It's like Hyperdrive, but with the exact same lack of funny bits…
I enjoyed his character, mostly because I think Karen's at her best when she's simultaneously ignoring him while trying to get him in the sack.
She's a brunette, therefore cannot be considered too appealing? IDK.
Your point about the actors is a good one—Schaal can't carry the cast on her own. If they're going to keep adding characters, they should start adding comedic ones.
If only you could have gotten an Ace of Base joke in there, too…
I agree with Whoo-ee-oo above; Cole generally can't change fate/the future. Cassie wasn't ever supposed to die, so really it was relatively easy to "change" the past because he was changing the past to the correct fate. It's only in this episode, after he's freed from fate (by getting his own paradoxical childhood…
The actor who played Mr. Dr. Jones was really good. I'm hopeful we'll get more of an explanation about the Joneses next season.
As others have addressed, Ramse doesn't see past people as really "alive" (just as I wouldn't care about saving people in Victorian England). However, I wish the show had sold this concept better. I've seen other shows and read time travel books that really nailed the objectivity of the future traveler who goes to…
Perhaps 56 years is the length of time in which time can be changed/traveled? At one point, didn't Jones say that 42 years was the length, or something to that effect?
I choked up a little when Cole went back for Ramse. I really didn't think this show had much to say, but when it showed someone "living outside fate" for brotherly love…oh, man, I got teary-eyed.
Could be someone from the future—the army officer at Markridge, maybe.
I felt like the 12 were from 2015, but are traveling in the future to a post-human time to start a New Age.
Perhaps, but then who was she on the phone with after she talked to Cole and Cassandra?
