I haven't seen the episode yet, but the fact that it's based around Iris, it's s going to be a really bad episode. I put on Dr. Fates Helmut and looked at all the possibilities, and it's a no go, and there isn't even 1 chance(as per Dr. Strange) that the episode is any good...lol
Great... Another episode of the flash with no flash :unamused:
That was one of the most beautiful send-offs I have ever seen on a show. Very touching and respectful.
I'm glad they made Phil live happily ever after.
Good fun and relaxed watch. Editing could be a bit better.. I wish they'd remove the fluff (of showing what's coming up around every advert) and just get on with it. The games are good and the so are the singers. 'twas fun to watch :)
The worst finale ever of the worst season ever. Doctor Who turned into a monster of a week mess, starring one woman dressed in a Forever 21 cardigan and three random strangers with zero personalities.
Remember Rose in Doomsday? Remember how Martha saved the Doctor? Remember Donna in Turn Left? Remember The Angels Take Manhattan? Face the Raven? Hell, even Bill becoming a cyberman. Remember all those emotions Doctor Who made us feel? Well, me too. This season there was nothing. Total vacuum. They can all just die for all I care.
I don't mind if the Doctor is a man, woman or a freaking honey badger. Just keep the writing good. Keep it smart. Not this sh*tfest.
The ending was SOOO sad :(
What can you say? It's the "Let's Go To The Mall" episode. It combines a legitimate relationship story with Ted and Robin (where Ted is a little insufferable and Robin is a little unreasonable), with the goofy weirdness of the Slap Bet, and culminates in one of the strangest, funniest, and most memorable bits in the series's history. Ted & Robin's story gets a little too exaggerated at times. Ted is kind of a jerk for telling the secret and should have been far more honest and direct with Robin. But then Robin does get on a big high horse about Ted asking if she's married (a less than crazy assurance to seek, even if she didn't want to explain the mall situation) and then lying to him about it. But even if the resolution's a little too tidy, there's a sweetness to it and it can enjoy the halo effect of the ensuing pop song.
The Slap Bet, on the other hand, is pure delight, from Barney's overconfidence, to Marshall's weepiness after getting slapped, to Lily's megalomania but concomitant sense of honor as the Slap Bet Commissioner. I had forgotten how much the episode leans into the idea that Robin's secret is a past career in adult films, but the entire slap bet subplot is one of those trademark, genuine-feeling games among friends that helped HIMYM stand out from the crowd among hangout sitcoms, and it would be the gift that kept on giving.
