I kind of wished they would have just left the Charles and Rosa thing for good and moved on, but oh well. I still have hope that relationship is the Mark Brendanawicz of this show.

I really disliked the set up of Jake and Amy from the pilot just because it was so ham-handed and obvious. Like, HELLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD AUDIENCE, I PRESENT TO YOU THE MAIN ROMANTIC TENSION OF THE SHOW and I really dislike being told things instead of shown them. However, I'm 100% sold now and it's not just…
It's weird, I totally agree with a lot of the criticism about Lotz's acting….but I still love her to death and will be devastated if anything happens to her. One of the rare, rare, rare, rare cases where the writing for a character is so interesting and good that it overcomes the actor's weaknesses?
Yeah, I felt bad for her.
I see your point, but I also think it's kind of ridiculous to hold the character of Nyssa accountable and representative of the LGBT community as a whole when we don't do that for any of the straight characters. It's not like people go, "Damn, Sebastian Blood really isn't a good portrayal of straight people." Nyssa…
Why can't Nyssa stay? I actually felt really bad for her while she was all heartbroken over Sara leaving.
I just thought of this, but whatever happened to that Asian hacker dude they strongly implied would be joining the 99 at least as a recurring character? He just disappeared after that one episode early in the season.
Man, the cutaway of Terry cradling the corgi reproachfully in his arms and Jake holding what looked like a bathmat to Amy's face to stop her sneezing almost made me do a spit take.
She's so cute. While I don't think she necessarily has the same natural knack for comic timing some of the other cast members do, she is so effortlessly endearing and charming. Plus she makes the best facial expressions.
"Emphasis on the 'iago'."
"I'm surprised you've even read Othello."
"What's Othello? I'm calling you the parrot from Aladdin!"
"Where's Bert?"
"I lost him. But don't worry, I replaced him with an old Asian man I keep in a box."
Bale's Batman voice always bothered me because he just sounded like he had laringytis whereas Oliver's obviously using his magic voice changing thingamabob
I really wish Katie Cassidy would remember how to act. That last scene was painful on so many levels.
God, the strudel scene in Inglourious Basterds made me so damn hungry. I almost cried out 'noooo' in the cinema when he put his cigarette in it.
I think it also works because in this episode we find out that Jake just wants to take her out on a terrible date to annoy her (because he liiiiiikes her), not to sleep with her. It's a sweeter, less skeevy take on the trope.
On a better show, they could be both, I agree. But not this one.
The brain scene with Coulson was a total tonal departure and felt like it belonged to a different show, but it was also the only part that piqued my interest even if it turned out to be as much of a non-answer as everything else so far.
People keep saying she needs something to do and better storylines, but she's just so whatever to me. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't care even if Vince Gilligan came in and wrote her series arc. I just…whatever at the character, whatever at the actress, I like Laurel in the background, doing nothing and missing every…
He said "you can't be here". Which is technically true on account of all the deadness.
The overarching arcs of SHIELD and Arrow *seem* (I say seem because I don't know what the fuck SHIELD is doing half the time) to be pretty much identical this season in that on both shows, a bunch of bad guys are looking to build an army of super soldiers to destroy the world.
