Wow, that was an amazing episode! Those scenes/situations of being locked and tight spaces makes me really nervous, plus a serial killer (!!) mix this with time travel and that awesome team and it's perfect! That's why I'm loving Timeless. Also, I'm learning a lot of history with this show, every episode a little bit. Didn't know about H.H. Holmes, now I'm shook.
The emotions and logic are getting wackier and wackier in this show... and not in a good way :(
The fastest man alive can't even stop a dart-kind tranquilizer? Fuck logic. Good luck with Savitar.
This whole episode was perfection. Except for 2 things:
Kara/White Bread bullshit
Yet another edition of "Where's Maggie, you know, the main character NCPD Detective Maggie Sawyer and why is Man-Hell on my screen instead of her?" Seriously, though. She only had like 5 minutes of screentime in this ep. This is bullshit.
I love Lena Luthor. And goddamn, her relationship with Kara is amazing. That feeling when two female characters basically fulfill every classic romantic trope (obvious Romeo and Juliet vibes because of the Super/Luthor conflict, Kara saving Lena more than once, Lena calling Kara her hero, Lena looking mortified when Supergirl gets hurt in front of her, Kara believing in Lena against all odds, Lena sending a million flowers to Kara's office, the list goes on) and look like they're about 2 seconds away from making out every time they share a scene, but heteronormativity exists and you know they'll forever remain strictly in the realm of subtext and fanfiction. That feeling sucks and I'm bitter.
I don't blame Lena for being kind of torn in this episode. Lillian played the mommy card very well. Katie McGrath and Brenda Strong are both awesome and they created a super interesting dynamic between the two characters.
I firmly believe that Lena is good. I need her to be good, otherwise Kara will be so disappointed. Get away from me with the staring-sinisterly-at-the-chessboard thing, writers. I don't accept it.
Baby Lena was so cute! What a beautiful genius baby. I want to adopt her.
Kara finally has her friends back. This is the kind of content that I watch this show for! It's good and pure, and Kara is a precious cinnamon roll. I just want her to be happy, have a good support system, be surrounded by people who love and care about her, and have a lifetime supply of potstickers. Is that too much to ask?
Also, shoutout to J'onn for being the most wonderful, supportive, telepathic Space Dad in the history of everything.
Thank you, Mr. Next-Episode's-Bad-Guy for saving us, at least temporarily, from the true villain this season: the forced romance between our amazing heroine and the "arrogant dude-bro" (Kara was spot-on, I actually cackled when she said it) who steals all of her screentime. Just burn this shitshow of a ship. Please. I'm so tired of white men being prioritized over everyone else, including the freaking main character. And is it just me, or did Kara seem awfully miserable in that last scene? Compare the way she looks at Mon-Ewww to the way Alex "Heart Eyes, Motherfucker" Danvers looks at Maggie. They couldn't be more different.
I'm a simple girl. If a show has anything to do with superheroes, if it's in any way connected to Marvel or DC, there's a good chance I'll watch it. And I'll probably love it, whether it's dark and gritty like Jessica Jones or charming and family-friendly like Supergirl. Legion is no exception to the rule.
I'm not a comic book reader. I didn't know the first thing about the character when I started the episode, and I had no idea what to expect. Having just finished it, I think I can safely say that this show is unlike anything I've watched before. In a good way. I enjoyed every second of the pilot. The cinematography is spectacular. The bright colors, the flashing lights, almost horror-like moments, blurring the lines between reality and David's delusions, scenes of people dancing - because why not?, seemingly random shots and flashbacks, and the general insanity all create a completely unique atmosphere. It's almost hypnotizing, making it impossible for you to look away, drawing you in. The plot isn't the most revolutionary, but the way the show is shot and edited still makes it feel fresh and original. I like the characters and I'm excited to see what will happen next.
What an episode. The gorillas looked absolutely amazing. The fight in the arena was so great to watch. I enjoyed the action and I can't wait to see the gorilla invasion. But at its core, this episode was about love. Jesse and Wally, Caitlin and Julian (seriously, if you'd told me 4 months ago that I'd ship these two, I would've laughed you out of the room, but damn it, they're so cute!).
H.R.: "No. No. Nah. Nah."
Harry, turning to Cisco: "Nah?"
Cisco: "Nah."
Iconic.
"Seriously, you idiots haven't figured this out by now? It all started when we blew up the time pigs, the Time Masters. Now history's all screwed up, and it's up to us to unscrew it up. But half the time, we screw things up even worse. So don't call us heroes, we're something else. We're legends. Who writes this crap anyway?"
I've been laughing for an hour. No joke. There are tears in my eyes, my stomach hurts and I'm wheezing. This is so perfect and in character for Mick. And it sums up the show really well.
The Legends have a chore wheel, celebrate Christmas together and they actually called themselves a family. I love this team dynamic so much. They're all my children, including Stein. My stupid, violent children, getting in trouble all the time and making poor life choices. What can I say? They've stolen my heart.
What an absolutely terrible show, I love it so much
OMG that beginning of the show LOL and celebrating Xmas right now...daring but i love it!
I didn't see the death of Charlotte coming.. that was a surprising twist. Gotta say that with the amount of new characters the loss of the character wasn't that intense as a viewer.
Happy that Mike is breathing on his own.
Hopefully this season will start to get better.
A good episode.
Still not really liking the new residents...
Great first episode. The only thing that bothers me is that horrible color and font they use for sunny's lines . It looks so bad.
"The doctor said all the bleedings were internal. That's where the blood's supposed to be!" LOOOOOOL
Amy: Writing things down is nerdy? What do you do?
Rosa: Just forget stuff like a cool person.
Timeless has become much more than just Legends of Tomorrow season 1. Where they just chase a bad guy through time. Flynn has a good side and there's still a mystery to the character. As you will see in this episode.
Best episode so far. The fact that they got stranded in the past without having to hunt down Flynn was perfect for them to talk and make amends with each other... now they'll work together against both Flynn and Rittenhouse
I shipped Riggs and his shrink but now I want him with the DEA agent. Love this episode. Definitely better than last week's.
The storylines of the guy with HIV and that young couple in love were the best!
Mario really is becoming a very interesting and layered character.
I really think that Malaya is being too pushy going against Carla's will, she should at least talk to her before doing things on her own.
It could be interesting seeing LeAnne going out with someone that has a personality so different than hers.
Please for the love of the universe someone give Amy Acker her own show.
Such a sad episode!!
Malaya owned the episode! Great seeing a bit of her background and her ex, as well as having her talking to that kid's father to advocate and speak in his name, that was really emotional.
Also liked seeing the loyalty/interaction between Leanne and the cop. I hope we get to see him again.
The guy that got shot through the wall really made me feel for him because he tried hard to do better with his life and still got caught in the cross fire. Just like Mario say he was a fighter, so totally my kind of guy.
Helen is trying so hard to be a good mum and to combine work and family. I like her so much! Gabe and Philip are also great characters.
Meanwhile Lukas gets more annoying each episode. I hope he soon gets his shit together.
This show is so good! I wish I would have waited until the whole season is finished, I can't always wait a week now for a new episode, damn!
wow wHATT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENEd
If a nice, awkward young man grew me a bunch of culinary mushrooms, I'd marry him. Jus' sayin'...
I love this show and I loved this episode. The New Rogues aka "Harrison Wells Cast audition". He has to be the best actor in the multiverse. I loved the different versions but come on, I want Harry to stick around. He and Cisco are one true pairing. I love their dynamic together. So funny. I would've chosen Hells Wells. God, that was absolutely awesome.
Besides, I love Killer Frost's powers. I hope she doesn't turn evil, but helps Barry and the gang around.
Plus, Barry and Iris together, sure felt kinda weird, plus making out in front of your dad, who so happens to be the adoptive father of your boyfriend. I guess you have to cool it a bit Iris, although it wasn't like they were trying to shoot a porn film or something. it was just cuddling bit any old how, it feels weird.
And Start back. They sold me that Start was back and all we've got was a flashback and a hologram. And Mirror Master and Top were kinda awesome, I presume. Actually, I paid more attention to the subplot that to the actual metas. And what about this, Barry found a way out of this pickle without help from the gang. It also felt weird, though.
Looking forward to see Killer Frost next episode and that weird monster we've got now.
I love this show so much. It never fails to meet my expectations.
There were so many hilarious moments in this episode. Where do I even start? Barry saying "Oh my God, I've become Oliver"? Harry and Cisco's bickering? All the different versions of Harrison Wells? Barry getting kicked out of the house? I honestly can't pick my favorite.
One little thing I really enjoyed was the exchange of "I love you's" between Barry and Joe in the middle of their awkward conversation at the precinct. It was such a small moment, but it literally made me go "Awwwwww". I love my beautiful family.
Mirror Master and Top were cool, I guess? As far as villains of the week go, they weren't outstanding, but the way they trapped Mirror Man at the end was pretty awesome.
No! Jesse and Harry! Come back! I don't want Harrison Wells with a sense of humor! Give me my Harry/CIsco bromance back!
Is Joe finally getting a love interest? Yay, you go, Dad Cop! You deserve it!
Caitlin, my sweet baby... Don't worry, everything will be fine, we still love you. Just don't turn evil, please. I mean, I really don't think the writers will go down that road. If they do, I'll be really, really angry. We have such a wonderful team dynamic on this show and Caitlin's an important part of it. There's absolutely no need to ruin that.
Jesus christ, this might actually give me nightmares. Really liked it though and definitely looking forward to seeing the rest. Just you know, in a well lit room. During day time.
One of the most disturbing episodes of a tv-show I have ever seen. I was feeling both angry and sad but I also felt this void inside of me.
Both me and my wife had the same opinion, that it was a bad start of the season and we were not particularly happy about the new season.
I was laying awake later that night and reflected over what I had seen and I realized that the episode was brilliant. Never have I ever felt all these emotions during one and single episode.
Great cast, great producers, best tv show ever!
Goddamn if the tears didn't flow while they were all eating dinner. Brutal and satisfying, a spectacular way to open the new season.
This was the episode that was most important when deciding whether or not to continue watching. The first two episodes revolved around histories greatest hits, while this one didn't. Was it as strong? In a way, I think it was even stronger. It had a premise on an actual historic event that I wasn't really familiar with, and informed me enough about it that I looked it up...and it's still pretty accurate. What's so cool is that the event isn't overly known, but the characters like JFK are. This is how Quantum Leap worked so well when they ran out of the stories most people knew already, they focused on character depth, and I liked this episode just as much as the others!
