as if the girl power until now wasnt enough with peggy, now we have a female villain whos super smart and super badass and i am so hyped
I thought it was impossible that Malcolm could be so easily defeated. But anyway, there's no Ra's al ghul but the consequences will be unbearable. Now Dahrk knows about William and Ollie doesn't even suspect that Malcolm and Dahrk are working together.
Anyhow, I enjoyed this episode a lot. I loved the father-daughter relationships alongside and I hope the season keeps on like that. Fights, betrayals and that Oliver. I need that Oliver from Seasons 1 N' 2. That is the one we all fans want.
Awesome episode. Looking forward to next week's. Excited to see how the plot evolves. and also to dig more information about the grave thing. Crossing names out of the list. The same goes for The Flash.
Peace out!!!
Just been rescued after months of painful, psychologically-traumatising incarceration at the hands of the multiverse's biggest, nastiest speedster? Pull out the "I can't leave - what about my life, my friends!?" line when your father tries to save you from a horrible death.
Whoever wrote that needs a whipping.
As soon as I saw Jay standing alone by the not entirely closed breach I fucking knew he's a goner. But what's up with the man in the mask "knocking out" his name? Is Jay a key to defeating Zoom? Is Hunter Zolomon Zoom after all and it wasn't just an easter egg for the comic book readers? My original thought that the Earth-2 Jay is somehow Zoom from the past and his experimenting with Velocity' variations will be his super villain origins, but surely Zoom wouldn't kill himself, so that went out of the window. I also had a crazy thought that the man in the mask himself is Jay, because the back of his head looked kind of similar. Man it's messing with my head. They sure keep up the mystery this season.
Every time I see Kane, I can't help but think of Desmond and how I miss his accent in Lost.
This episode was the first in a while that focused mainly in the relationships between the characters and the action was not very important. Liked the change of pace and I want to see how Liz will deal with these two men trying to control her life now.
im not seeing anyone making death threats to writers or crying and downvoting because Sinclair died, but its ok, he wasnt gay so he is unimportant and it doesent matter if he dies
i love Miller and i loved Lexa, but Lexa died to move the plot foward not because the writers thought "oh lets kill Lexa because she is gay haha so funny"
how many main characters have died? more than 10 for sure, so why we only focus on the gay one? gay characters are unkillable? for me they are the same as any character i dont make distinctions and neither the writers
My name is Barry Allen, and I am the dumbest Man Alive. To the Earth-2 people I am an ordinary speedster, but secretly with the help of Dr Wells I gave my speed to Zoom and became a normal guy. I hunted down the man who killed Jay Garrick, but in doing so, he took Caitlin as a prisoner and my speed was gone. And I am the only one dumb Enough to do it. I am the Dumb
Gonna give this a shot over the weekend. Heard so much about it.
I can tell you that Game of Thrones is phenomenal, visual beautiful, fantastic, exhilarating and action-packed thrilling rollercoaster that in many ways has not been seen yet in a tv show. I could say that and be absolutely right about it, but unless you have been living under a rock without an internet connection for the past 2 years than no doubt you already heard, seen or read for yourself what a masterpiece the books and/or this tv series is.
Game of Thrones is exactly like the title says: A game for the throne. Played by the people who think its their right to claim, conquer or inherit it. They all have different goals and different ways of getting to that point, but their goal is in essence in one way or another the same for all of them: to be recognized and remembered for their deeds. Off course that is not so weird since everyone in real life at some level thinks like that. But the main characters in Game of Thrones are different, either through noble descent, the power and money they have, intelligence or sheer luck they have become a member of one of the noble houses that rule the countries and can decide the fate and lives of hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of people within the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos.
The story, setting and characters are all taken from a broad range of European history. Most of what we see of the continent Westeros (castles and tournaments) is taken from High Medieval Western Europe from around the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries. But the story takes bits and pieces from other time periods as well. For example the wildfire that was used in season 2 in a brilliant strategic move of "The Imp" Tyrion Lannister during the Battle of the Blackwater is in fact Byzantine "Greek fire" which was invented and first used in the 7th century during battles between Muslims and Byzantines. This and other historical events, devices and characters based on real people out of history are all as it seems perfectly interwoven into each other into the fictional world of Game of Thrones by the author of the books George R. R. Martin.
For the actors who play the characters i have nothing but utmost respect. The performance they manage to show episode after episode is definitely what makes this tv show so popular. There is one in particular that without a doubt is one of the more popular stars of this tv show: Peter Dinklage who plays the role of "The Imp" Tyrion Lannister. In the 1st season he was portrayed as nothing more than someone who took advantage of his noble status and money to do whatever he wanted. But in season 2 (and hopefully the next seasons too) he transformed despite his disadvantage of being born as a dwarf (who during medieval times and in this fictional world are considered "lesser" humans) into a brilliant military and political strategist and someone who can very good and enjoys as he so very accurately said himself "play the game".
Game of Thrones is without a doubt the hit tv show of this decade. It started out with a story about medieval times, but slowly with every episode we see the world of the Seven Kingdoms transform into a place where mythical creatures exist, magic and dark powers are used as a weapon against enemies and where the dead are once more walking again.... Winter is coming, and i have no doubt it that it will be as spectacular and story-wise phenomenal as we have have seen in the previous seasons.
Another great episode. Probably one of my favourites of the entire show, to be honest.
I couldn't stop cracking up for the first 5 minutes. The scene with The Machine experiencing a facial recognition error was shown at New York Comic Con last October. I watched it on YouTube months ago, and I thought it was pure gold, but I was sure it was just a fun, little bonus. I never expected it to be an actual scene from an actual episode, but I'm so glad it is. The cast's impressions of each other were hilarious. Amy Acker's Reese and Finch were particularly on point. We also got Root in bunny slippers and her and Finch redecorating the subway. It was nice to have some happy stuff before things got serious again.
The Machine going crazy was really sad for me, especially when Harold realised that she was suffering, reliving her deaths over and over. His speech about things not being black and white and about people doing their best really touched me. Harold was a different man when he created The Machine, and since then he's had to learn that good and bad aren't always mutually exclusive, which is exactly what The Machine needed to understand in this episode. I love how they draw parallels between The Machine and her human agents.
How great is the relationship between Root and Harold? They've come so far. She kidnapped him when they first met, and now they're working together, fighting against Samaritan together, living together, and he's willing to sacrifice The Machine if he has to choose between her and Root? I'm in tears. And Bear likes Root too!
Of course that random guy we saw in the middle of the episode wasn't random. I really should've seen it coming.
The ending was amazing as well. Team Machine on a picnic? That's some fanfiction shit right there, and I love it. I know it won't last, but they deserve some peace and quiet every once in a while.
One of the greatest Game of Thrones episodes EVER, from the start to the finish. May this season be the best one so far!
Seeing Jon and Sansa reuniting was so satisfying ^_^ Sansa has matured a lot. Brienne actually made it in time for once xD
Loved the ending. Danny with her usual coming out of the fire naked, looking badass xD
Okay, so apparently this episode aired a day early in Canada? Thank you, Canada. You rock.
That being said, my mind is filled with incomprehensible yelling, and my hands are shaking, so I'll keep this one brief.
Have we just watched Shaw's Winter Soldier origin story?
Sarah Shahi was on fire, hot damn. What an amazing performance.
I was sure that Shaw's escape wasn't real the moment I saw that random-ass boat. Way too convenient. Then the episode made me doubt a few times whether it was a simulation or reality, but in the end it turned out to be exactly what I'd suspected from the beginning.
I'd been waiting to see my baby Shaw again for so long, but I wasn't prepared for that. God, I can't deal with my emotions. It's too much.
I just really want them to kill Greer, all right? Slowly and painfully. Hell, I'd kill that asshole myself if I could.
If the simulation was in Shaw's head, why wasn't it from her point of view? And have those creeps watched Shoot bang every time they've run it?
This episode was unbelievably sad, and I'll probably still be crying about it next week, but Sarah Shahi tearing apart Amy Acker's shirt might just be the greatest thing I've ever witnessed with my own two eyes. Is there any chance we'll get some more of that when Root and Shaw are finally reunited in the real world?
Shaw has chosen to put a bullet in her head 6,741 times instead of killing Root. I'm bawling. Ultimate OTP goals right there.
What an exquisite episode. It struck the perfect balance between heartbreaking and awesome. Easily one of the best they've ever done and definitely in my top 3.
I'll be on the floor sobbing uncontrollably if anyone would like to join me.
better and better, is in my top 3 the best tv show!
Damn, this season has been epic as fuck. Hope they can keep up this quality for next season and don't give in to the stupid Tumblr fans like Arrow has.
Pike saved Octavia more than once to try and redeem himself. Warrior Princess wannabe had to kill him anyway. She f'd one grounder so that makes her Xena ?
Solid episode nevertheless.
Am I crazy or has Archer been on fire this season? The fact that he was dumbfounded and stammering by having to relive being bullied was great. The opening scene was hilarious, both for Mallory's tremendous acerbic wit (her line about leaving AJ at a state fair dumpster and hoping that carnies take her in was classic her) and for Ivy's not-so-latent prejudice and the related disbelief. Pairing up Archer and Cyril in a story about bullying and having Cyril try to convey the irony to Archer (and have it fall on deaf ears) was brilliant, as has his little imagine spot about recreating silence of the lambs. Plus, there were all sorts of great continuity nods, from Archer wondering if Ivy knew Ray, to "suppressing fire!" to even, god help me, Archer's "octoroon" comment. The animation was especially good this episode, and there were enough twists and turns in the plot to keep the story going even as the comedy was running alongside it. Hell, there was even genuine pathos in Archer recounting how Ivy and Whitney nearly drowned him in a toilet. Throw in the rest of the gang riffing on bringing Hamentaschen to cover for Mallory's slur, Lana getting arrested in the process, and a recurring line of humor about a "vag-pass" and you have Archer firing on all cylinders. Loving this season so far.
Quality episode. I have to admit, I've grown a little worn out by Barry. There's nothing wrong with the character, he's just gotten a little played out and they needed to find a different direction for him. I don't know if this was it exactly, and in truth he was mostly up to his old schtick, but he and Archer have a good, funny dynamic that was particularly enjoyable when the two of them were in the cab together. Barry is understandably resentful of Archer, and Archer is kind of oblivious, lightly vindictive in that trademark jocular Archer way, and the clashes between them are usually entertaining because of it.
But the highlight of the episode was Mallory being locked in the underground chamber and finding her way out. Jessica Walter has such a verve in her world weary wit, to where when she's talking about the various steps of escape, it's enjoyable how acerbic she can be (like when she sees the Archer graffiti and realizes in a delightfully cutting fashion that someone blaming this on Archer doesn't narrow down her list of possible assailants much). Plus, it's also nice to see her being a bit of a badass spy herself, whether it's finding her way out of a SAW-like cell, or manhandling a truck driver. (And the Ron Cadillac cameo was great!).
Overall, there was a lot of the fun group dynamic in the A-story with the group trying to find out who Barry's mom is. Krieger in particular got to shine a bit, both from helping Archer with his electrocution plan (I assume Archer knows about the whole Edison thing from his brief time as Bob Belcher watching "Electric Love"), comforting his transgender frog, and the reveal that he has masks and gloves for each member of the former ISIS team. There wasn't as much narrative momentum to go with the laughs--Barry's plan felt more like an excuse to get everyone together than something that really drove the story--but the laughs were good, so the episode largely still worked.
This show seems to be getting better and better, the past 3 episodes have been pretty good after a fairly weak first 2. Sure it's not reached that level of an 'AMAZING' Tv series yet, but continue like this and it may do. Alycia was such a badass this episode yet again, Chris of course continuing to annoy the hell out of me. Only 2 complaints really is I wanted Nick to do a bit more and wish certain chracters just weren't so stupid ha! But a great episode non the less, 8.2/10 from me
In a show with so many characters, one of the most emotional deaths was the guy with one word of dialogue. That's why Game of Thrones is so great.
Great episode, things are moving a nice pace. Wish they stop killing off the Direwovles though , that was hard to watch and especially to listen too.
IT'S THE BLOODY HOUND. GIVE HIM HIS CHICKEN!
Great episode.
Was great to see the Blackfish. And Lady Mormont. Massive respect. Showed 10 times more potential than Tommen did or ever will.
That Arya moment what the fuck. I knew something was gonna happen. Please no. I'm going on a riot if something happens to Arya. Writers please. No :|
Was kinda annoyed with Sansa shitting on Davos like that :/
Overall giving this week an 8/10. It was good, but not outstanding.
Based on the promo there's no way Jamie can take on Brienne xD
It felt so frustrated at the end of this episode. All I want is more. Why is it that the shows I love most have the shortest season? 23 episode of The Flash but GOT is like gone in the blink of an eye.
Thumbs up if you said "What the fuck..." to your TV before the opening credits.
Funniest episode this season so far lol

How come there's 7 votes to something that wasn't even released yet?! The rating system should only be available after release.
