here to mark my spot as the first colin LOVER! LOVE THAT MAN! LOVE POLIN!!
I knew the ending so it was not a surprise to me but God the way the cast and the director made this episode it made me feel all the pain and the suffering that loss is all about and I cried my eyes out on a Sunday morning which was brilliant and sunny but I was crying because I really relived all my losses and empathised with Dex......brilliantly played and worth it . I loved it even though I was trying to hold it together at the end I was sobbing like a blob. Not all love stories have happy endings but that doesn't diminish their value and what we are left with from the people that are no longer in our lives. Having said that oh it hurts......Love to everyone who watches this I hope you have a great love in your life like Emma and Dexter
This is an episode about life and death. Tony and Carmella talk about Tony getting a vasectomy, about his ability to create more life. And Tony berates and then makes peace with A.J., the life that he created. At the same time, Christopher experiences a vision or a dream or something that makes him think he saw hell, and it prompts everyone to think about what comes next, even Paulie, who takes things so literally that he has his sentence in purgatory calculated and is trying to pay the priest protection money.
It's also an episode where everyone's justifying what they do and what they have to do. Tony sees himself as a soldier and "soliders don't go to hell." Paulie imagines his time in purgatory in relation to eternity. Even Melfi is justifying to herself continuing to see Tony even though she seems to know on some subconscious level that it's a dead end and compromises her "ethically and professionally."
And Tony and Pussy have their "Avon and Stringer on the Balcony" moment together. That and the scene with Tony and AJ were very affecting. Not to mention the looks exchanged by Tony and Carmella where nothing really is said, but despite her moral reservations, Carmella is grateful that Tony avenged Christopher. There's something hanging over the episode - Christopher coming close to death seems to pull the fragility of everything into focus for the lot of them, but it's not enough for any of them to really change. At the end, Carmella implicitly endorses her husband's lifestyle, and the angels are watching, and maybe waiting.
Hahaha, what is this? Was this really the plan all along, to have some random blonde girl suddenly confessing to this insane behavior at a random celeb gifting suite? I suspect that they realized the story was getting way too complicated to tie up all the loose ends, so during the mid-season break they had to pivot to another story... but even so this was really awkwardly executed haha.
So... A random girl is responsible for what was happening to Anna... And she confessed everything without hesitation at a public event... That was one of the worst explanations ever.
Has the dubious honor of being a Boone episode (and the only one). Definitely among the worst episodes of the show. The flashbacks are dumb; Boone and Shannon are uninteresting at best and varying levels of grating most of the time. The events on the Island are not much better. Why does Locke know how to make a hallucinogenic drug paste? Why does he leave incredibly decent-looking rope to be cut up and left in the jungle?
I'm already sick of Sawyer's casanova shtick. Does he ever stop sexually harassing Kate?
Not sure if it was intentional with the whole 'dingo at my baby' joke/plot since it was the Australian that was talking of it, but it really hasn't aged well knowing now that the dingo actually did eat her baby and she wasn't lying.
What a disgusting piece if filth. There’s no redemption for sexual abuse.
owen needs to go directly to hell.
Well, considering the fact that Henry was practically a copy-paste of Danny Duquette, this ending was pretty expected.
Who wrote this :poop:? Ghost Diana?! Ridiculous!
If I could kill off one character in this series, it would have been Violet, she's so entitled, selfish, annoying, makes everything about her, brings trouble on herself and anyone around her. It's good Sheldon is there too to rehabilitate the image of the therapist profession.
What on earth was that hideous bright pink airport outfit?? :flushed:
Kim is so insufferable in this.
“Just to know ! Does this season has woke stuff?? So i can skip like the other season”
Last season was about the AIDS epidemic. Gay people do not equal woke. I highly suggest you figure out the correct use of the term or stay far away from everyone.
i wanna kill shonda rimes she ruined my life
Alex is such an unbelievable asshole, I really do not understand how someone can handle playing such an asshole over and over again,
and Izzie is a whining bitch. Just suck it up and do your bloody job.
I've watched some good 10 thousand episodes in my life, but dude, this season takes the cake of the craziest, cringiest, most random, most delusional, pure insanity throughout these episodes. It's just........ dude. You can say reality-tv is as bad as you want, but if you watch this and a LOT of feelings don't pop up in your mind, you're just frozen.
1 - 'G*psy' is a racial slur; the roma people were also put in concentration camps in World War 2, there was an entire Roma genocide that isn't even talked about, and yet they're villainized as thieves, murderers, etc.
2 - Romani and Romanian are different. Romanian people come from Romania, Romani people are originally from India.
3 - Roma people's primary source of income isn't theft, that's more stereotyping.
I love love love Spencer my baby
Maybe I’ll be a box of Tampax.
can only summarize this episode as Peter Morgan placing his pursed lips to the rim of Charles' puckered arsehole.
I was like "They better not show text how good the charity funded by the Bin Laden family and the Qatari government is for society"
Welp, they did. At least highlight how charities are used to give them more money and influence. Not make it seem like he cares about POC when he refused to even shake hands of black people in his coronation (edit: Elizabeth's funeral). Also him dancing screams "How do you do, fellow kids."
It's not the worst charity judging from CharityNavigator, but c'mon he literally made Diana's life hell and they only show her in 2 scenes here.
"That was middle class. Promise me we'll never do this again"
Just after this show made me cry for the characters it gut-punches me with aristocratic decadence.
Good thing I couldn't care less about the real monarchy except maybe Diana.
Astonishingly good writing and performances. I dislike the royal family intensely, but this had me in tears.
the entitlement of politicians... 11 years in the seat and she's throwing a tantrum? bitch, chop chop, get out the door
also Emma Corrin is A BEAST, really makes me nostalgic for Diana and I haven't even been born when it all happened
This season in a nutshell.
Charles: I have done by best. My very best, and I am suffering!
Elizabeth: No, you are not suffering. We're suffering having to put up with this! Let me make something clear. When people look at you and Diana, they see two privileged young people who, through good fortune, ended up with everything one could dream of in life.
No one, not a single breathing, living soul anywhere, sees cause for suffering.
Charles: They would if they knew.
Elizabeth: Knew what? They know that you betray your wife and make no attempt to hide it. They know that thanks to you, she has psychological problems and eats or doesn't eat or whatever it is she does or doesn't do. They know you're a spoiled, immature man, endlessly complaining unnecessarily, married to a spoiled, immature woman, endless complaining unnecessarily.
And we are all heartily sick of it. All anyone wants is for the pair of you to pull yourselves together, stop making spectacles of yourselves, and make this marriage and your enormously privileged positions in life work.
Charles: And if I want to separate?
Elizabeth: You will not separate or divorce or let the side down in any way. And if one day you expect to be king...
Charles: I do.
Elizabeth: Then might I suggest you start to behave like one.
Mike drops
They were a bit too subtle with that boat metaphor, almost missed it. They maybe, I dunno, should've had 5-14 more characters make the exact same comparison out loud? 15 characters, to be safe.
Poor casting choice for the roles of Charles’ left and right ear.
