Oh wow, the downfall of the show has really set in now. I feel bad for Freya Allan. She's trying her best to make something out of an episode that shouldn't have been more than some scenes.
Unbalanced casting is hurting this show in my opinion. Why is everyone mid twenties and pretty? It just feels wrong. The writing of a couple of characters doesn't fit a young person at all.
Very hard to pick up again to be honest. For a first episode of a season this one just tries to tells too much story in too little time and it confused me a lot.
'Look at what happened to Fred, look at where you are now.' I can almost hear Michael Kelso shouting: Burn!
Listening to Liz Plank talking about men was really awkward. She seems to have quite the short-sighted view on the other sex. I am a 36 year old man and I don't think she said anything that I recognize in myself or my friends. I have a really warm group of friends and we feel totally comfortable with hugging each other and talking about our feelings, problems or doubts. It's 2022 for Pete's sake. A lot of men are really empathic and the complete opposite of what she describes. You should never generalize a group. People are so different from one another. The world would be a boring place if that wasn't the case.
Watching this show has become my 'feel good moment' of the week. So glad we are getting a third season!
I'm so happy this show has finally got back to the level it should be on! At this moment it's firing on all cylinders and bangs out one fantastic episode after the other.
Idris Elba is carrying this show so hard.
This show is good, but the cast is really hit or miss when it comes to the acting performances.
One of the better episodes this season. Peia is an interesting villain/character. The scene with Kyle coming to the farm was awesome.
That moment of butterflies in your stomach when you see your team scoring that equalizer... only to feel it change into a brick when it's disallowed because of the offside rule. Every football supporter knows this feeling. It's the worst. Another great episode.
Another episode, another great quote: ''As a doctor... Smoke more.'' So sweet how he defended Asta and made her feel better in the car.
I was almost shouting ''Open the door!'' when Bunny was outside. Such a sad scene.
Not knowing the comics it took me some episodes to get a grip on this universe, but oh my this is really good. The fight between Dream and Lucifer was so creative and cool. I wasn't familiar with Tom Sturridge, but his voice is freaking mesmerizing.
I never knew I wanted a combination between No Country for Old Men and Home Alone until now :sweat_smile:. What a fantastic first episode. Loved Juno Temple in Ted Lasso and loved her in this first episode.
Just a perfect pay-off. Can't wait for next season.
This episode will probably be real hit or miss for people. For me it was a hit. The songs were maybe a bit overdone, but I liked most of them. Tempting the Patrol to stay in the 'music dimension' and being rid of their 'dooms' was an interesting underlying story.
I liked the second part of this season a lot more but I still think it's time for this show to end. This season felt like a spinoff to me and it didn't have that real 'You Magic'. The cast outside Penn Badgley was just okay and could have used some stronger characters.
Yes, yes, yes! I love how June and Serena end up together again. Their chemistry is just spectacular. I'm so curious where they will end up in the final season. And how freaking long will it take for Aunt Lydia to finally see the light. I predict she's gonna make a big turn.
This might be an unpopular opinion but this was another boring episode for me. I'll try to explain where the glove doesn't fit for me. I like Star Wars, but I'm not a super fan. I like the simple adventure stories and the action, but I was never really interested in the politics behind it. This show has quite a strong focus on the political side of things and that's where it loses me every time.
The guys rocking out to Eye of the Tiger is just straight up legendary!
''You gotta get yourself one of them lights to make your skin look better, like a flesh light.'' :rofl::rofl:
Great show, great story, great cast and a great universe. I wasn't familiar with the comics and it took 3 episodes to get me really interested in this world. Tom Sturridge is stunning and his voice fits the dark character so damn good. The supporting cast has so many good actors/actresses to enjoy: Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Fry and Mason Alexander Park were some of my favourites. The show has a very free way of dealing with sexuality. But where a lot of shows these day have a very forced way of doing this, The Sandman sets an example of how this can be done with care and love. Netflix really needed this W.
A few good scenes this week, but too much time was spend on C and Jay. These characters just don't bring the same performance and quality. I did enjoy the Hale and Caleb scenes though and it's good to have Maeve back. Let's kick some ***!
First episode this season that's up to par if you ask me.
I still enjoy this show although it's really mediocre. But two things...
First Westworld episode in a long time that I enjoyed a lot. The Maeve/Caleb storyline is really growing on me. It's really great to see Aaron Paul acting with decent script to work with again.
A decent and fun finale, but also very rushed. For me it felt like the story of this episode needed to be told in two episodes or one 1,5 hour long episode. Still it's a satisfying conclusion to the story arc of Rick and Michonne in my opinion.
This show just keeps on surprising me. Rarely have I seen such a perfect cast. This just works.
In my opinion this was one of the weakest episode this show had so far. I just think it was quite boring. But I still love 'Only Murders' and I'm sure there's a lot good stuff coming.
