Revolution does seem to be getting closer and closer to being a decent show. That stupid intro disappearing and fewer flashbacks are definitely good things, but the Lost rip-off score is irritating (not to mention Miles' general Sawyer-iness).

The show still isn't good, but it's at least a little bit less terrible. Killing off Danny, the Andrea Walking Dead of Revolution, is a big plus, hopefully Aaron gets bumped off soon too.
Merle, another of The Walking Dead's 'the worst' characters, being killed off is a definite bonus in an otherwise boring episode. There's been too much filler with an extra 3 episodes this season, and it's really dragging itself to the final episode.
I think Andrea might have become a better character (and let's be clear, she's the worst) if we'd seen more of 'The Amazing Adventures of Michonne and Andrea' at the start of the season, rather than having them first appear together in the way that they did. That flashback didn't make a lot of sense in this episode.
So I've to stop watching a show that I've really enjoyed in the past because I now have some issues with it and this is apparently unacceptable behaviour? If the AV club was rating every episode C would you be telling the editors to stop running reviews?
I just don't believe in anything that happens in Girls any more. It's stopped being a comedy, it's almost entirely without jokes, and the way the characters can just see their lives or personalities dramatically change in the space of days, or hours is fantastical.
Morrissey is reponsible for 70% of those 70% of depressed Americans being depressed.
The two problems I have with the introduction of Brian are 1) I don't believe there's such a thing as an attractive boom operator, and 2) There has never been any hint that any of the characters in The Office have any kind of relationship with any of the documentarians beyond the confessionals, then suddenly Pam and…
Can we get Morgan killed off next? Maybe run over by a bus so there's no chance of a return? His 'I'm weird and say things that reflect this' persona is incredibly boring.

This episode is basically a mini-version of every other episode mashed together. So it involves smaller people doing the same thing Charlie, Miles, Nora and Aaron are doing, looking for someone's brother, and then being dull until the episode finishes.

"Casting spoilers operate such that the smaller the role in theory, the greater casting becomes a red flag. Craig Bierko as an executive in last week’s episode makes sense given that’s a position of power; Molly Price as a secretary, or Costible as a janitor, creates greater dissonance and thus greater potential for…

The flashbacks are bad enough, but do we really need the characters having them to make a 'Sssh, I'm about to have a flashback' face too?

"Do you think Abu Nazir intends to eliminate the tailor once he gets to the safe house? I sort of feel that’s the case."
I think the episode would have worked much better if Brody had just gotten the tailor to the safe house, then gotten a call telling him to kill the guy. Brody getting a flat tyre *and* the tailor…

I think the 'Yeah, what you think I'm pointing at?' gag is being cruelly ignored here.
