Your comment was not ridiculous. 

No, we need shows to stick to the rules they set up. Otherwise, the story carries no weight.

The show is on fire. Getting better with every passing season.

Donna wrote back at the end of Season 1 that Marco was such a good friend because he appreciated what Jimmy’s talents and what he brought to their relationship. Kim is sliding the same way. Chuck was the polar opposite—despised Jimmy for getting all the attention, and used the law as an excuse to settle his personal…

If the first two seasons of Westworld were any indication, then it’s probably a good thing he was hemmed in by CBS and didn’t get to make the exact show he wanted. Isn’t it telling that Westworld’s only now getting good the closer it gets to Person of Interest?

Marco!

From what I’ve read, most lawyers spend most of their time drowning in litigation documents. Which they’ve also showed in previous seasons with the Mesa Verde stuff. It’s mostly just Kim being on the phone with clients or Kim doing mountains of paperwork.

It rings quite true for me. Law is a tough profession--doesn’t leave much time for social gatherings. At least they have each other.....for now.

Jimmy doesn’t have too many close friends either since Marco’s long gone.

I don’t know. Season 2 really seemed to be convoluted for the sake of it. Not on PoI’s level at all.

I was really hoping this would be great when I saw Denise Thé was writing it. It did not disappoint.

Far Beyond the Stars worked perfectly, and fit in incredibly well overall with the show and the franchise’s themes as a whole. I see why the writers of Trek often used allegory. Some of the stories they told might come off as tasteless. Far Beyond the Stars is a wonderful exception.

Kind of. It does age well in many ways despite some of the seams that show under a modern lens. There are a lot of terrible DS9 episodes.

It’s perhaps a marginal improvement over Discovery. If you liked that, you will liked Picard. Personally, I strongly dislike Discovery, and Picard shares a lot of its weaknesses, and is just as inept in building a serialized story.

Wasn’t it quite expensive for a network show?

I guess it wouldn’t be Clone Wars without one of those middling arcs that are there to fill time before you get to the good stuff. Hopefully we get to that good stuff soon, though—we really don’t have much time left.

At least Arrow tried to course correct whenever the show screwed up majorly (and the final season was really good). The Flash keeps making the same mistakes over and over and over again.

But usually, shows go off the rails for a season or two. Not five in a row......

I don’t think it’s the final season. 

Any time The Flash decides to be a bummer, we have to desperately search for things they liked. I don’t know how the writers haven’t figured out the tone for this show yet.
