Then short: That would be racist, not reactionary.

Naturally I'll start with S2E1 - first appearance of the goddess in that original black outfit….

The episode stated that the Shadow Records list every member of the League of Assassins since "writing was been invented in 3200 BC". This means the title Ra's Al Ghoul is much older than the modern Arabic language, and the writers can establish any league-internal pronunciation they want.

You mean, make her remember a certain cute tech genius she used to hang out with? Like that actually happened?

I thought this was exactly how it works? All you have to do is FIND the door, and make it to the door ALIVE. Oh yes, you also have to sign over your life. But if you do those things, you get the training.

What I totally dislike about Sarah is that she allowed herself to be separated from her original Black Canary outfit. That white whatever is a crime against her hotness.

And don't forget to include the Prison Break easter egg in LoT Ep 5 in the re-watch….

she did? Seems it's time for a re-watch….

Jack Harkness: "Anything under 1000 deaths is for sissies."

I'm glad other people liked it, too. Maybe it was to subtle for an action show, but I liked that the main conflict was driven by an inner logic slightly more complex than 'VENGANCE!' or 'MANIAC!'.

These days, they hover…

For a second. Then his face went seamlessly from surprise to "cool, I gotta get me one of those".

But that is not really the point I was responding to. You seemed to imply that any human threat can be contained or controlled, so that aliens really are in a different category of threat.

So…you mean like a suicide bomber?

The world council ordered nuking New York. The director of Shield disobeyed their order, personally shot down the first bomber and alerted the Avengers as soon as the second one took off.

You mean the the wouldn't directly show severe torture? Like stuffing metal splints under somebody's fingernails?

I don't mind having somebody who hasn't swallowed the corporate cool aid. And I don't mind having a bit of eye candy in my shows. To appease the haters, maybe the show needs to get him a salmon ladder?

No 'official' SHIELD agent can be on the bridge - because from their perspective FURY is the dead one.

Did not know that. But I can give you one better: In Germany, every journalist and every politically informed person knew that Helmut Kohl had an affair with his secretary Jutta Müller for all of his 20+ years in office. If it was ever mentioned in the press, then only in subtle hints about her role in Kohl's powerful…

Don't forget Daisy… But between pondering of the The Bloodbending Problem and recalling graphic descriptions of the Hand of Blood used to tear people apart, all naughty thoughts have been thoroughly purged from my brain. I'll just have to wait for the next episode, and see if an appearance by Lincoln or anyone else…
