That letter going missing and the sister never getting the chance to read it was one of the biggest gut punches to me. I was glad to see the cop squirm over it.

I think Kathy Bates is going for a northwestern English accent. Manchester, maybe?

I came into the comments section to ask or look for an answer to this question. Glad I'm at least not alone in my confusion.

This. Makes total sense to me, and I really felt for her.

I feel like Xo did have that convo, offscreen—it was why Jane decided to offer to go to therapy with Rafael.

I thought this too — "1995" is part of the graphics of the theme song sequence, although I guess it might be 1996 in season two.

Count me among those who will miss these reviews! Love the show and Carrie's take on it.

Totally agree. So glad she's no longer in the dark. Loved the moment when she got herself away from Slade.

This has probably been floated before, but Oliver totally based his menacing Arrow voice on Slade's, right?

Great song, great album.

Nicks' "Rooms on Fire" needs to appear at some point…

Thank god someone finally mentioned seth's hotness. I have been reading through these comment threads for the last two episode recaps waiting for him to get at least one shout-out. Yum.

The Roanoke bit was pretty good, but no one does crazy-ass flashbacks like The Vampire Diaries.
