This is very well put, Piecar.

Because if not it means that a writer is trying to pass a trope off as something new.

Haha — about not liking reboots? Serious as the grave. About alternate timelines being a possibility? Not really, but it's something commenters keep bringing up, and was mentioned in the review.

I find the way he's acting to be more than just stupid. If he had any concern at all for the woman who was brutally murdered he would be racking his brains trying to figure out what happened to her. It's a huge flaw in the writing of this show that we're expected to sympathize with a guy who is so implausibly…

I'm not too excited at the prospect of alternate time lines being the explanation for what's going on. Mostly because alternate time lines tend to lead to reboots, which I pretty much despise.

The parking lot attendant must know who Mrs Welleck is married to, since the show has shown us she is on the covers of magazines. He wouldn't refer to Tyrell as "a skinny guy in a hoodie" when talking to her. That scene last season where Elliott talked to Mrs Welleck on the sidewalk was so bizarre that I was afraid it…

Something dramatic seems to have happened between the knock on Elliott's door that ended last season and the start of this season. Darlene went from being triumphantly happy to being sad and anxious. Angela started listening to self-help tapes. None of them were talking to each other.

Yep. When Whiterose asked what her REAL reason for joining the FBI was, my daughter and I both said, out loud,"There were these screaming lambs."

I was talking about how he was treated at the police station. We know where he found the knife, but all they know is that he was carrying it on him.

Werner Herzog has a sense of humor. Is the answer to your question.

Are we supposed to think it might be Elliot who put the FBI onto fsociety? With this show I don't know if that's a crazy thing to ask or a crazily obvious thing to ask.

I don't get a counselor vibe. Something about the set-up of his "apartment" feels like a maintenance man to me. Or maybe a night watchman? He's not someone Eliot is regularly scheduled to see; he's available whenever Eliot shows up.

It would have to be voluntary, because Darlene says "I can't believe you put yourself here" or something like that.

I think Nas's parents are too naive in general to be plausible. They obviously live on the edge, money-wise, and they're immigrants. Nas's dad, at least, would be a little more savvy.

The Sheriff is my favorite by far.

That isn't what I'm talking about.

If we're not supposed to take the rants seriously they shouldn't go on as long as they do.

I started tuning out of that monologue at that point but hung in there long enough to ascertain that Elliot didn't say anything I haven't seen in a Facebook post.

I'm worried no one is reining Esmail in. The monologues and conversations are twice as long as they need to be. The concepts this show discusses are just not that esoteric or complex that they need this amount of explanation. I think the music (when it's a song being played) also goes on too long. I'm hoping things…

I said "seriously." Of course the words "gay" and "queer" were thrown around as insults.
