Some of the incredibly bad writing in this episode:

Yeah… The show kind of jumped the shark for me when I saw that. It was never perfect but at least in season 1 it felt like the creators were trying.

You think Cabin Fever was enjoyable!?

B-!? The hell?

On the other hand: Eli Roth. Quite literally the only director (including those working the direct-to-DVD racket) to ever make a movie so unpleasant that I seriously considered walking out of the theater.

You know, had they shown the video going viral online instead of airing on TV I would have actually bought it.

I disagree. For all it's faults I actually prefer S1 quite a bit. It was way more grounded and as a result more impactful when it did things right (bits like the red hood gang). Plus I liked the way all the craziness naturally flowed from the city's corruption. Having Not-Raj-al-Goul wander in and play supervillain…

Agreed. Holy damn that was some bad acting. Is this really the guy carrying the rest of the season!?

I agree. It's particularly jarring after basically the whole first season was dedicated to showing how incorruptible he is. Hell, the big "Oh shit!" moment for his character was simply him saying he owes the Penguin a favor (which he still does now that I think about it. The Penguin only used one of the two in the…

They're probably going for a Joker Gang thing like in Batman Beyond where packs of wild Jokers roam freely through the city's dark underbelly.

I like it too but I feel like they could have made her turn a LOT more believable. It feels like she's doing things "cuz I'm EVIL now!" rather than anything grounded in a real character motivation.

You have a large part of the population basically living in their own
filth and risking death every day just by going to work. Suddenly this one nutter comes along and puts a crack through
the heart of the whole thing with only a few weapons and a big smile. It IS kind of inspiring in a psychotic way and the twist…

I kind of like Evil Sheldon From Big Bang Theory. I just find it very weird that he's the one having multiple personality issues rather than, you know, Harvey Dent.

"“Rise Of The Villains: The Last Laugh” is a troubling crack in this season’s otherwise sturdy structure"
