As much as I'd like to, Im not really getting into this show and the praise in the reviews seem to be exactly why I dont like it.

Daniel is the MVP?!?!

Once again, last minute character development. He was the mentor but suddenly he had a sinister plan and then dies? C'mon.

Speaking of Sword Fights… why is it that every guy on the show is shorter than their lady? Doesn't the show have an Apple box budget?

Charlotte pregnant with Declans baby has to be the worst potential storyline (timesuck) ever.

Actually, the showrunner change is exactly whats WRONG with Revenge.

I have to agree with the botching of the Falcon hype. It was set up to be so mysterious and campy and fun but completely went the "Made for TV hacker" route.

IF and Actor never fired a gun before: 
- Bring in an expert to show proper way to hold/carry firearms
- Send them to gun range to get the feel of what they are doing
- Review footage and critique if it is convincing enough to put on screen

The lack of revenging is a major reason for why season 2 has been a decline, but what I think hurts it more is the lack of coherent story due to (seemingly) last minute changes to the storylines.
