I really hope this will be the last season, this premiere made me feel that they're just pulling ideas out of their asses, by now. The show has come far from what MAoS used to be, and I don't mean it in a good way.
But I liked badass Clark Gregg!
Really, I never thought that the end will be migrated to a SCI-FI TV-Show ??, let's see maybe in those two years a lot happened, I need a good damn explanation to stay watching it.
Eddie should have got a spin-off but based on the Dungeons and Dragons 80’s cartoon series lol.
It has had a good run. A bit sad they didn't give the show the dignity to just die after 2 decent seasons. It's just going to keep going downhill from here. Just gonna pretend i didn't see that dumb cliffhanger at the end.
The story was fine but it didn't seem like a Black Mirror episode at all. No new tech/sci-fi element. More of a typical thriller.
Pretty fun episode - unfortunately the Harley and Ivy dynamic seems to be more of detriment to the show, as the show is at it's best when it's off those two. Lots of Joker DC nods, ranging from Batman 89 / The Dark Knight and even Joker (couldn't see any Leto ones - though I'm not sure). Even a potential node to Sean Murphy's White Knight run.
That being said, something was still missing for me overall. Previous seasons were pushing for my top 3 - top 5 of the year. This year I don't know if this will be top 10. Admittedly, we've had a lot of great TV but something is just off overall.
i cant believe one of the best eps (so far) this season is where joker gets to be wholesome and the damn mayor of gotham :sob:
Black Mirror used to be about technology and its impact on society.
This was just a horror story with a nice twist at the end. More Twilight Zone than Black Mirror.
So... 4 of them are replaced by LMDs, even Daisy. Sounds a bit silly. The jig will be up as soon as she tries to use her powers
Great episode.
Like before, this show is at its best whenever they move away from Harley & Ivy. This deconstructed version of Gotham is so deep and interesting that it's always fun exploring these alternate versions of established characters.
Props to Conner Shin for writing this amazing episode and he's not even credited on IMDb yet.
Apparently they didn't think they'd get renewed themselves after this hilariously crappy season, so they pretty much ended it, huh?
At least they had the guts to close the (main) storyline - sort of at least.
Yet they make the continuation of this tattoo thing even more ridicolous as it seems.
I'm out. The end is satisfying enough to close this show for me and the "cliffhanger" is giving me an outlook on how far they are willing to go with the stupid tattoos. Early on I said in the long run the show's downfall will be the "mysterious tattoos".
It gives a too strict frame to work in...aaaand that's exactly the reason why we got glowing tattoos now. Great.
Very well done, writers.
Edit Nov 2022:
Years later I let it stream on Amazon on the second monitor and wow. Wow.
First two seasons and Blindspot was around 5/10 with a weaker end but the 4th and 5th season bring it down to a 2/10 easily. It's that shitty. Not just bad but really, really shitty. Crazy they got to 5 seasons.
The interactions the Inhumans have with pretty much every normal person they encounter is like. "I know we just met, but did we just become best friends ?" It's like the people they meet take a blood oath to help them, when they just met.
Everything wrong with Iron Fist is pretty much what's wrong with this show. I mean every character is too open, like Danny is about being the Iron Fist and chi.
Which is why Black Bolt is the best character because.... he doesn't talk. The action I think is at least fun. So that isn't the problem. Everything just feels rushed.
The best relationship in the show is of Crystal and Lock Jaw. Which is sad since he's a CGI giant dog.
i think half of the characters will turn into ashes until the end of the season
"You look like a damn fool"
Good episode as usual but with a few logical mistakes. So they vented the Zephyr because they needed the cold to kill the shriek but Yoyo and the other agent didn't freeze at all?
I loved the battle at the tower ❤️
My favorite thing about this episode was recognizing locations from lost.
worst episode of the serie
I like your thinking, Turk. Getting beat down by Daredevil in Hell's Kitchen is insanely better than fall of a building in Harlem.
Does anyone else still find Ivar unbearably annoying?
Honestly I'd much prefer if everyone accepted Lucifer is the devil and started treating him like that
Iain De Caestecker deserves all the awards.
Probably the best episode of the series. That fight scene was fucking amazing.
The whole Bob situation was so obvious. I saw that coming from a mile away.
smart concept, very dull and boring execution
(imagine Oprah): You get an Iron Fist! You get an Iron Fist! Everybody gets an Iron Fist!
I've never been more heartbroken over a character's death like Eddie's last words were the saddest and proudest words he's ever said and yeah i sat there screaming crying sobbing throwing up
Bob! I kind of figured he would die, but I hoped he wouldn't. I had started to like him.
Great episode, but it didn't feel like Black Mirror. It's missing the sci-fi element, the dystopian topic, the futuristic technology aspect.
