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.
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!
Nancy and Jonathan do not have chemistry. It’s exhausting that I have to suffer through this forced romance.
Thats no Doctor It's Norman Bates.
Veronica is starting to get a little boring, however I did enjoy that little duet during the confirmation ceremony.
The ending was good, a nice cliffhanger.
This show keeps reminding me of "Twin Peaks", murders, small town conspiracies and events, all of it! It is very interesting, in my opinion. :)
Sweet Christmas. When the camera started moving closer to Alexandra's face and the music was building up in the background, I had a feeling that something would interrupt her big speech. But I certainly didn't expect... that. The only thing I can say: YES! FUCK YES! You go, Elektra! Look at my murderous wife taking her destiny into her own hands! I was hoping that we would see her with her iconic sais at some point since they kind of foreshadowed it with her looking at them while choosing her weapon, but that was the best possible way to do it. What an ending.
Danny's a fucking childish idiot (but what else is new) who refuses to listen to anyone and tries to fight the only three people who can help him bring down the Hand. How does Colleen put up with him? He's insufferable.
I liked Jessica and Matt's little bonding time. They make a good team.
Well, looks like Stick's dead. I never liked the guy anyway, so good riddance.
half of the people that are in the header are dead or gone please change thank u
Definitely Marvel's best film so far. I enjoyed every single minute of it.
Funny as hell and delightful rated R content. Was not disappointed.
Why would you like to live in a home with that many mirrors:cold_sweat:
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME ?!!??!?!?! I'M IN PIECES
last 15 mins I was having the most emotional full body reaction. I was sweating n crying n breathing heavy. I'M STILL CRYING NOW??
i cannot believe this is a real tv show and i also cannot believe i watched this fml
I was close to stop watching the show after the first three episodes. Everyone seemed to be a self-absorbed rich asshole, the show itself seemed to be going nowhere. But I'm so glad I didn't stop watching. Episode five was the first one where I thought "Oh, maybe it isn't so bad after all." It only improved afterwards. With all the schemes, backstabbing, and generally horrible people it's basically Game of Thrones set in 2018 New York. Succession is probably the best show on TV at the moment. I can't wait for season two.
I'm glad they decided to keep "No Pun Intended: Vol Too" in this adaptation. Terrible jokes but its nice to see them laugh every now and then.
lol for the queen of spades game, couldn't they have all agreed to simply surrender to the blue team in the last round to beat it? there is zero reason to even side with the queen in the first place if the last round has the blue team as taggers
The terrifying part of this is that there are so many alive now who would stand to defend him despite the preponderance of evidence and the weight of history. My soul weeps.
