I usually do not watch TV episodes till after the credits roll but there is actually an after credits scene here that noone should miss!
Have people not realize yet that this is a low stakes, stand-alone kind of show?
"adds nothing to the MCU". No shit!
Does everything have to be fucking connected? Lighten up, DUDES.
props to my boy Dylan G for holding that position for what seemed like an eternity!
Pirates of the Caribbean meets Indiana Jones.
Nice try, just entertaining, not a masterpiece.
bro, where are they going to take this in season 3. im so intrigued, i have no idea!
I f*king cried, Luke at the end & R2 ?! best episode ever. This even tops the sequel triolgy for me. You know, this even makes 2020 a good year. 10/10
Someone watched Avengers Endgame while on weed and wrote the script for season 3.It was a hard suffering to complete this season.Please cancel if you don't have enough to keep it interesting.I don't want to hate this series more.
That was a twist I wasn't expecting but should have been. This was possibly more captivating than the premiere. But there is a slight, lingering feeling of confusion within me. I guess I'm more alert if that's even the right word, cautious, perhaps, when it comes to the past, present, and future because of watching The Witcher, so maybe that's more of a burden. It's making me wrongfully preoccupied instead of paying attention. Anyway, the events in this episode are after the events of the premiere, correct? The whole chess match between Dracula and Agatha made it seem like it was in the past, his past. Oh, and another thing, did the latter even happen? The way I see it, or rather, the way I'm guessing it to be, is that the chess match wasn't real, never happened, or it did but not in an ordinary sense, like it was a dream happening during the present events on the ship. I'm not sure. What are your thoughts?
I wish I could give it a 10 (which I very very rarely do) -Season one is excellent in every aspect but one:
The timeline is blurry and confusing as f***.
Events taking place decades apart are only put into their place by a character dropping that something happened three decades ago in passing.
Normally that wouldn't be an issue, but most characters don't age!
I am still a bit confused as to why the bard doesn't age, since he seems to be human (I'm at Episode 6, so I hope they do explain it in one of the last episodes, but I doubt it)
That combinations makes it really hard to keep track of what happened before, what happened after and what happens at the same time.
P.S.: I don't know the books, so I have no idea if they had the same problems.
I took a look at the descriptions for the books though and some elements seem to coincide with the first prequel book. So I assume they are meshing prequel and original books together somehow.
This episode may have been the cutest thing I have seen on TV, and it completely sustains my opinion that the addition of Mayim Bialik to the main cast was the best decision TBBT producers ever made.
Mark Hamill was super funny, and it was great to see him on TV, but I laughed the most at Kripke singing at the end, John Ross Bowie is just so hilarious! He had about 20 seconds of screen time, and still he managed to be unforgettable!
"Everyone! Remain calm! The Crypts are perfectly SAFE!!!!! I repeat, the CRYPTS ARE SAFE!!"
THINGS THAT MADE THIS EPISODE F*CKIN AMAZING:
- Getting to see the dragons in action was truly beautiful;
- Dany and Yara interaction was GOLD;
- The battle was very very very good. Tense and visually stunning. I couldn't breathe throughout it;
- Ramsey FINALLY being killed and ultimately by Sansa;
- >>>Sansa's character development!!!!<<<<
- Rickon dying as well was awful, but I can't say it was a wasted death nor a bad executed scene.
S06 was worth it mainly because of this entire episode. Still can't believe how good it was. I hope the finale is even better.
It has a big emphasis on family drama. If you're into that you'll probably enjoy it, but honestly I think it doesn't come anywhere close to the likes of Expanse.
A few minutes in and Iron Fist / Danny Rand is already getting on my nerves.
I can't wait for 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.
THEY PROMISED ME ZOMBIES AND ALL I HAVE NOW IS DEPRESSION
What a beautiful episode, I don't remember an episode like this for years, very well done, just perfect.
Which version do you prefer? The Game or the Show? I will have to go with the show, its more happy, kinda.
The episode's title, "Old White Men", refers to senior executives of Walgreens, getting swindled by Elizabeth and Sunny. All the warning signs were there, but their fear of missing out and stupidity win over common sense and logic.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth sells her soul, digging deeper into the point of no return, as she chooses her company's short-term financial survival over long-term success and reputation.
It is often painful to watch this episode, knowing full well that her jurors recently found her guilty on only lesser charges.
Bit of a disappointment so far, which seems to be a reoccurring theme with these Disney+ shows and their IPs. Maybe some better showrunners? I came into Obi-Wan pretty high on Deborah Chow, but maybe I was wrong. Some things have felt fluid, and others really clunky (the woods chase is as bad a scene of choreography, as I remember). The actress playing Reva feels like someone desperately cosplaying as an Empire based character.
Maybe it’s going to be an issue in the next episode, but Mando left his jet pack on the hillside, and never retrieved it. If he had, he would have been able to get to Grogu in time.
How this has become a discussion about two very different shows, I can't possibly understand. (Seriously, TRUE BLOOD and THE VAMPIRE DIARIES? It's like comparing HOUSE, MD and GREY'S ANATOMY.)
I started watching this show when I was most definitely a part of the target audience, and despite my initial fear of this show being a TWILIGHT rip-off (despite the fact that the books had been written before, which yes, would make it a "Follow the leader"; mainly because Book!verse differs vastly from TV!verse), its flaws are entirely different.
THE VAMPIRE DIARIES has a protagonist-centered morality, that, when it comes down to it, isn't caused by Elena Gilbert's gentle or loveable personality (of which's existence, by now, only the Salvatores seem to be entirely certain), but the fact that she's got the special kind of boobs. Her magic hooha is infamous among fans of PNR and UF, the hypocrisy of the characters one of the most fandom-intern-critizised points of the entire show.
Despite that, we still watch it, and once you've come to the point where you hate a show with a passion, yet can't wait for the next episode, you do wonder why that is. (Or at least I do.) The heteronormativity, the lack of POCs, the annoying protagonist and love-triangle, the melodrama, the patheticly obvious loop-holes and inconsistencies. Even the beautiful and rather talented actors and actresses (and amazing music (and yes, to be fair, the few very well-written and often well-directed episodes) shouldn't be able to make up for it, right?
But in the end, the show is what the HOUSE OF NIGHT series is in the PNR bookworld. It might suck, it might be immature, sex-negative, and downright awful at times, but it's also compelling. I can't help but react to the insanities that ensue, and even though it probably isn't what the writers and creatores intended, my hatred for certain characters and the misery I feel everytime they mess an magnificent concept up beyond repair, are what keeps me coming back.
In other words, if you are looking for a well-written, sex-positive, 21st century TV-show whose writers you can trust, look somewhere else. If you want a guilty pleasure "Jesus, why do they all look so good, and wth, how is this his voice?"-experience, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES should definitely do. (Then again, shows like LOST GIRL, TEEN WOLF, and BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER are, at this point, easier to recommend with a clean conscience.)
(That isn't to say the show isn't enjoyable. Especially if you are less involved, are able to be entertained by shows despite their influence on particular people, or don't question the characters' and writers' decisions, it should be a show you might come to like.)
I REALLY don't get why most people didn't like it. In my opinion it really worked quite neatly
I'm still annoyed at Otis's behavior throughout the season, but his voicemail to Maeve was actually really sweet and what Isaac did at the end was a total dick move. Tbh given that Netflix has been canceling their shows left and right, the producers are putting a lot of faith in them with that cliffhanger ending. Nothing has really been resolved in a satisfying way, so if we don't get a season 3 it's gonna be awfully disappointing.
Also, Maeve's mom is literally the worst ever. Fuck her. I'll miss seeing Maeve with Elsie too, they had such a cute relationship.
Why interview the mother? Saying these people trying to track him are 'crazy, 'stalking' and 'acting like high school children' when trying to find him? Does she not comprehend that her son killed around 4 cats, a dog and a human being? Sorry, but they have every right to use any means to track this fucker down. She doesn't seem to have any remorse for what her son did. She's delusional if she doesn't think her son did it.
OMG.. why.. why can't they make a good "Vampire" show.. without all the stupid cliches!!!!
The "news reporter" is so over the top ridiculous, the police officer so typical ... the plot so far is.. so full of holes.. so many.. so so so so many holes.. had hope, but the pilot just killed it..
Let's see how the second episode goes.
Edit:
All done.. This is nasty i'm sorry.. Lots and lots of plot armor, the plot keeps running on the side, extremely predictable. Runs like a bad B series that syfy makes. Love the idea of the pathogen that's asleep in the ice that gets release, lots of good ideas, horrible execution.
IF YOU THROW ANOTHER MOON AT ME I’M GONNA LOSE IT
That last shot with the three of them in the elevator skyrockets this episode to the top!
