I'm a little frustrated that Lyanna didn't reveal anything about the circumstances of her "abduction" like whether she ran away and if so, why and whether or not she and Rhaegar married but I'm still relieved that it's out there now, that there were no twins or anything*, and we are all finally free to discuss it…

OK, so who was surprised by the Tower of Joy reveal that Jon is the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen? I've been dying to know how many "Newbies" had actually avoided that "spoiler" and now I can finally ask!

How about Lady Olenna knowing about the death of her family and making it all the way to Dorne before Jaimie in the Riverlands had any clue? (But yes, it's quibbling.)

"Cersi of House Lannister", don't forget. She even has the audacity to reject the Baratheon name.

What Piper did was despicable, but no one deserves to be branded. Frame her, get her sentence extended, fuck with her property, her reputation, scare her even, but I draw the line at scarring people for life. This is the 21st century, not the dark ages.

Remember his thing with Fig? That was pretty despicable, on multiple levels.

Yeah, there really are people that act like Linda.

Did anyone get that Linda is in charge of Purchasing, making her the one ultimately responsible for the maxi pad shortage? Piscatella would have had to wait until after the convention to get through to her, though I'm sure she's just as inaccessible when she's in her office. She is truly evil and I worry about Caputo…

"…a weird recurring theme of references to John Cusack projects…." Other than the title of the episode and the other "Say Anything" reference with Brook holding up the boombox (she really is too young to claim that movie, isn't she? or do Millennials watch 80's/early 90's teen movies?) have there been other Cusack…

So, Myles, are you on a first name basis with Blair Brown or was that a typo? ;>

Well, if you believe the new teardrop tattoo lady, she's killed 3 people. I guess we're supposed to assume she got away with it, even though she advertises it on her face. I don't get the impression that Yoga Jones was very young when she killed that boy (it seems like maybe she's been in for 10 years?) but somehow…

7 people have agreed that it was just a monologue, not a flashback, so I will concede that is true, but damn that monologue was good! I have a very clear picture in my mind of Yoga Jones at night under orange moonlight standing with a shotgun outside her rural house with a porch with a rocking chair and plants hanging…

Well, we knew from previous seasons that many of the older women had committed far more hardcore crimes than most of the people in Litchfield and had been moved down from Max over the years. There was a prisoner in the original Piper Kerman book that was a grandmother who had been sentenced under the fucked up…

Yeah, I think they are all gone for good. It's too bad, I would have preferred to have the original guard crew as the counterpoint to the tough new guys than these new "old" guards.

To be fair, she knew and had worked with the hitman, and certainly knew Kubra (sp?) pretty well. I'd bet that she's texted and received texts (though probably with a Blackberry or flip phone) to/from her old boss in the past. Any guy that's going to ask for not just one photo of a dead body, but a second with her…

Nope. I noticed, too. It's conceivable that the initial red marks faded away pretty quickly (the hitman being "dead" healed up as well), but she didn't even seem bruised in later scenes. Even with her long hair, it would be hard to hide one's neck in those uniforms and the lack of any noticeable bruising or abrasions…

I love it! The world is saved because bloatware sucks!

I think Jone's solution to the lung cancer problem has been to change the past in which her daughter and everyone else died, as she did quit when she found out she was pregnant. I doubt she wanted to live to a very old age in the future she hated. Even though her daughter is now not lost, she missed all those years…

It is so disappointing that AV Club isn't still reviewing this show. Right now this and Game of Thrones are the only shows I really look forward to, now that Orphan Black and Person of Interest are over (though I must be forgetting something, right?). Wayward Pines is just too awful (is that still being reviewed…

A few years ago I made a list of every recent show I could think of that was based on the Sherlock Holmes model (including Monk, Bones, The Mentalist and others) and I put PoI on the list, though I wasn't sure if the Holmes character (the eccentric genius that solves crimes but is not neuro-typical) was Finch or The…
