I think there were probably one or two too many plotlines this year, overall, but it came together in the end.

I don't give 100% attention, but, a lot of it made zero sense to me.

Yeah, it was the little "girl" in the sandpit.

Unless it was Doctor Who.

Already happening over at Amazon.

Second Dawn are going to turn up sooner or later — this episode was even named after their cult slogan. That, and their leader was played by John Pyper-Fergurson, a fairly prolific character actor. He's not the kind of guy you hire for a thirty second role.

Jesus, he's a Kiwi. Like, clearly.

I was genuinely shocked that Hannah was pregnant. Is it the first time the show has acknowledged that its characters' completely irresponsible approach to sex (I.e. No one ever uses a condom) can actually have consequences?

1. Because I happened to notice the AVClub review and was surprised that they were even bothering to review the show given how bad it is.

Nah, that was Showcase entirely. But I see your point.

Also, that was run by a different channel — Syfy didn't own the property and couldn't renew it.

Show us on the doll where the evil magicians hurt you.

No, it's very much its own thing.

Uh, so?

No, it's just you.

Get lost.

It dips into the surreal fairly frequently, like that play that Adam was in last season, but in terms of presenting images that can't be literally understood —- in the sense that they don't have a strict indexical relationship with the reality of the show — I can't recall any other examples.

Symbolic.

Because they're too long for the timeslot?

You've seen the original, right? Episode two featured a scene where Max, Hester and Leo do argue over what to do with the barn guy.
