This show is getting better and better. The last 3 episodes have been amazing!
Parker's demon form is so cool!! I hope we can get to see more of that but I doubt we will.
What a dumb ending. really.
Yep, the ending sucks. It sucks in way to detract from the whole. I was pretty happy with the ending up until the epilogue. Then the writers snatched defeat from the jaws of victory an fucked everything up.
On a technical note I find it hard to believe that that the magical group meant to police magic were so easily undone. I always find it hard to believe when writers and show runners can't tell the difference between a interesting cliffhanger and a fuck you to their audience.
Never saw that happening but instantly new the other 'guy' was his niece.
Hard to believe there's anyone that didn't see that "twist" from a mile away. Except for the fact that she was an adult, and like Excess, also from the future, although there have been hints of that since about 4 episodes ago. Hopefully Thawne has something good up his sleeve to make this all go down better.
Barry's second speech wasn't bad, but of course he revealed his identity to Cicada. Over the years I've seen all kinds of memes that all make fun of Barry compulsively revealing his secret to every stranger he meets.
I enjoyed the Joe/Cecille bits. By contrast, the Nora/Iris stuff felt kinda hollow, esp Nora's idea of compiling that speech by looking at his other speeches.
Season six is getting a new showrunner-- after a rather lackluster season 4-5 I'm happy about that.
i would die for number five tbh the kid is a fantastic actor
"Oh. My. F**king. God." LOL
Somehow, I always found Zach entertaining. He's too damn dumb to not chuckle a bit whenever he's around. Rajesh's story, on the other hand, is getting quite tiresome. But I guess everything in this show that envolves relationships has been getting tiresome for quite some seasons. Heck, for me, that's the one thing that ruined this show.
Andy has got to be the dumbest and most gullible character on the show. Let's just hope he won't be able to ruin Lauren, as well.
And they keep breaking the group further apart! Fucking hell! That's what ruined this season, in the first place! We want them fighting the good fight together, not as a million different organised groups that dislike one another. What happened to "strength in unity"?
The show runners are clearly just spitballing, by now.
this is the best Arrow has been since season 2. i never expected it to be this good!
This show can be either fantastic, a complete boredom, or unbearable. This episode had a bit of the three of them. The prison scenes are completely badass and although I'd like Ollie to suit up real quick, I want to see that badass Oliver again. Btw, Ollie's prison buddy is totally gonna be bad at the end of the season. The dude was way to happy and thrilled to use the guard's family to threaten him. Also, "What's the plan? Beat him up? Torture him for info?" "No, we do it my way". Question here, since when is that not Oliver's way?
The flashforwards are on their own interesting enough. I'm dying to know what the help has happened with Oliver and Felicity anyway the hell is Roy doing there all alone.
I'd watch 42 minutes of Dinah and Laurel teaming up and being absolute badasses. Their scenes together were gold and they have great chemistry together. I loved how Laurel came back at the end to apologize for killing Vince (justice for him, lol) and how she wants to be good despite all the evil she's done. Also, trying to kill the DA is nothing new. I'm amazed as to how Star City manages to find new police officers and new DA who either end up getting killed or are inherently evil.
I started the season liking Felicity. Itlasted only 1 episode. How exactly does seething she's get Diaz? By whining at him u til he surrenders? I'm starting to count Felicity's fuck up from now on.Id hate if Diggle or anyone elsestarts making excuses for her, like-new always do. I mean, she almost got John killed and he apologized to her. Seriously, wtf?
Is it me order anyone else disconnect when Felicity and Curtis aretrying to magically hack something? I feel like if I paid attention, I'd just go crazy. Did they just hack a trip to separate the wagons?
And how did Diaz get that flamethrower? Did he summon it or what? because it just appeared in his hands.
I can't believe the writers gave us Prometheus, a badass villain, for just one season and that we're stuck with Diaz for two.
The chopped off finger scene was gorier than any CW hero show has been before.
That definitely felt like a pilot for a spin off of a new show.
Is there a word for when you're relieved, happy and a bit sad, all at once?
For me, the best shows are the ones that leave you wanting more, and this will definitely be the case here. The story is finished in a satisfactory way but I also think that the side characters were so entertaining that their stories could have been told as well. At the same time I'm also relieved these stories weren't told since it's hard to keep it balanced in a way that it doesn't start to drag on for too long, meaning that the show gets to fade to black at its peak.
Thanks to everyone involved that made this happen - even Netflix, for listening to reason and not denying us a proper farewell.
and of course the phone saved the lol. crappy shit.
While this episode was luckily a lot less preachy than the pilot, it did little to reinforce my trust in the remake. Instead of giving the girls the time to explore their newfound powers and sisterhood it gets crammed with episodic fantasy stuff that CW shows apparently require. Them behaving very random and frankly stupid also didn't help it (was close to turning it off). I'll gladly welcome a Charmed reboot in my TV schedule but if this is all we can settle for then I'm going to drop this sooner than later.
Trying too hard not to judge it based on one episode only! But..
the "vibe" of the show is way different and demons look more like x-men than an evil creatures.
Being a faithful Charmed fan I really wish somehow it will work and if it doesn't still hope this attempt won't stop them from trying
to bring charmed back again. I'm praying that this works out and doesn't ruin the charmed legacy and it appeals to newer generations.
OK, this is a pilot and they already judged sororities and men in general.
The lesbian one checks all the preconceptions there are about lesbians (for example: they hate men). Well, at least thats my take on her character.
Who goes around telling everyone what consent is and that it can be revoked at any time.
And then using the phrase while advertising for pilates?
using one or the other would have been kind of cool.
Using both in the same scene is just desperate.
Besides the SJW-Stuff: The speech about winning prices for deciphering magic scientifically was way too much.
Also: "Baking-Powder works too"? It exists for quite some time now, if witches are powerful and intelligent women you should think someone would have thought of it already or at least it would have happened by accident...
Also: Way too extreme special effects.
The Original Charmed worked as a mirror for boys/men who watched it (Can't speak to what it did for girls...), while still being fun.
This Pilot felt more like being judged for things you haven't even done.
edit:
To make it clear: Consent can be revoked at any time. I just have a problem with people, who feel the need to tell it to everyone every chance they get and kill the mood for people who are clearly both consenting.
And I also hate it, when people assume that a man won't respect a no. The ones that don't are an absolute minority.
Scenes like this strengthen that preconception...
