1x08 Barely Breathing

That was a decent way to get Liz back involved with the group. I liked her teaming up with Michael. Also liked seeing sides of Michael that I associate with the other version.

How can Caleb (I mean Alex) treat his own father with such indifference and cruelty... I mean emotionally. How could he send him away like that and..Idk,That was just kinda hard core. I could maybe use a flashback there.

I can sometimes see shimmers of TVD in here, like when they had an emotional song peaking during Isabel's transition into the pod, as Liz lathered on the silver goo. It's not quite as effective here though, not as Intangibly cohesive.

the first half was closer to a 6 and the second half a lot better like an 8.

• liz casually shows kyle the serum she casually has made in short amount of time
• liked jenna in earlier episodes but now her story line is just that she's being blackmailed by jesse manes
• it was cool to see max and isobel's mom but she didn't really do much.
• i like that we get to more of michael's genius brain and what he's been doing with the alien ship things. also teaming up with liz was cool.
• even though i don't like liz that much anymore it was interesting to see this dilemma of having to basically find a way to save the one who was responsible of killing her sister. and she realized that she had to for max.
• also the scenes with alex and his dad had me at the edge of my seat. the courage he must have to face the person who has caused so much pain in his life. but i guess that goes to show again that he knows he has survived a lot in the last decade.
