5x07 Acting Dean

Yay, Dean Fogg is back! Oh no, that's not actually the right Dean Fogg! Multiverses are just like time travel, they can really mess up a story. Luckily, on The Magicians, it's all been good fun on both accounts, so far.

I hope they won't be trying to set things up between Alice and the new botanist guy. Though the dude seems alright, I didn't feel any chemistry between them and it's too soon for a hardcore self-hatred person like Alice to let go of Q this soon.

Fen seems to have got along nicely with the fairies, which was disappointing... I was expecting some clumsy "Maid on the Outside" comedy time to have come of that. But at least Margo bumped heads with them, as it's typical of her character. Anyway, I liked it better when the fairies were evil.

Eliot and Seb are so cute together! Too bad Seb is, unsurprisingly, mass producing Takers (of course Seb is a villain, his charm can't fool me!). There's always a catch when our crush seems too good to be true, right?
The downside of the whole Dark King thing is that, because of the actor, the forest scenery, the actual Dark King denomination and magic, it's all a wee bit too reminiscent of Once Upon a Time. Still unsure if that's a good or a bad thing.

Wassup with the Visigoths? Did they drop that plot line? Since there's a sort of bigger actor leading that pack, I'm sure we'll get to seem them again. And I hope they'll be fun! I suspect this season will end in a cliffhanger (shocking, I know) and they'll be directly involved... Let's wait and see.

Todd should have had a solo part in one of the previous musical episodes... What a voice!
