@eleon holt didn’t seem as holt-like this episode. A bit over the top.
That is a big boy. Indeed it is. What I don't get is does he really think he'll get away with it? The unit will surely find out and arrest him and he'll never see his wife. He is not thinking clearly. I don't know is Shiv is bad. I'm confused. Anyway, it's still a good show

@aid45 I thought it would be bigger :person_shrugging_tone1:♂

After the 3rd episode, I quit. Just not into this show. I did try.

@mosesmsj same. I tried my best. And just noticed there’s more after this season so no. Can’t keep going.
I still don’t like the wife. She’s so annoying.

@minibutmighty I don’t like any of the characters. I don’t find this show enjoyable at all.
It seems others might have really liked this silent episode but we felt it a bit gimmicky and over-done. The first part of the episode it felt like a novel way to showcase his point of view, but by the end it felt cliche and forced. We actually thought this was the worst episode so far.
loading replies
@itswilder yep. Very unlikely that the characters suddenly don’t speak to each other.
Best episode yet. Anthony Starr is just amazing. And can we please get more Hayley Joel in more things?

@theavereviewer watch future man if you haven’t already. Lots of HJ there.
Netflix mapping: this is the 2nd episode of season two on Netflix.

@ahmedhamdy90 i think it’s also episode 3 since the image for this episode (above) is of Nairobi on the phone which is the final shot of episode 3 on netflix.
When season 6 first aired, I just knew it was going to end with BoJack either dead or in prison. As it turns out, he's a bit of both (he's actually in jail and he's basically dead to every single person he's been close with in the past). I also knew that Mr. Peanutbutter, Todd, and Princess Carolyn were going to be fine (did PC's relationship with Judah remind anyone of Peggy and Stan from Mad Men or was it just only me? What a great surprise! I happen to love them together very very very much and I'm incredibly happy at the idea of Princess Carolyn being with someone who actually respects her, loves her, understands how her job works and how important it is for her, and is always willing to go the extra mile for her), but I always worried the most about Diane. I've always felt very connected to her and I kind of hoped things worked out for her because that could mean that things will eventually work out for me as well. I was a little bit disappointed to find out that she's no longer with Guy because I also wanted her to be with someone who truly loves her and cares for her, but then I remembered what Sonny said to her a couple of episodes ago about Guy always choosing "broken women" whom he then "fixes" and who eventually leave him when they're better, and I realized this: maybe that's why Diane is no longer with Guy. She is not "broken" anymore. And her final scene, in which she cuts off BoJack from her life for good, is further proof that she is, in fact, alright.

@carolinaoftarth she married him though. They are still together.
the dog :( so sad... Not necessary at all!!
loading replies
@ahmedhamdy90 it might be necessary. It shows that James has changed/is changing as 8 episodes ago he would have had no problem putting it down but now he couldn’t do it.
I mean, one of the shots during the intro song shows a woman going down some stairs in a period dress wearing the bracelet Roger gave Brianna. So there's not much of a question whether she'll be able to travel through the stones. Way to spoil the show, intro! LOL
I'm still so pumped, though! Can't wait!
(I've decided not to read the books so I can enjoy the show without it being clouded by all the stuff the screenwriters changed or omitted. Maybe I'll read them once the show is finished to see how they compare to each other).
One thing I'm kinda confused about. The Cherokee grandma basically told Claire she'd grow old enough for all of her hair to turn white, which made me think she was gonna live a longo, long time. But then, Roger's friend had that paper that said she and Jamie died in a fire no many years after the got their land. What's up with that? Can someone explain?
loading replies
@abtr if someone explains that’s more spoilers :person_shrugging_tone1::male_sign:
They don’t die in a fire but the house burns down. I can’t remember properly because I read the books a while ago but I think Jamie is working as a printer at the time and they don’t know if they’ve changed history or not so they still print the article so it appears in the future. Something like that. I think. I can’t remember.
Annie, I'm a hawk.

@vhgauto haha was about to comment that exact line.
Review by Andrew Bloom
VIP9Very tempted to give this something less than a 10 because it doesn't have the heart of the greatest Futurama episodes (so perhaps consider this a 9.5), but my god is this episode both hilarious and brilliant as a parodic love letter to all things Star Trek. I love how game the actors from the original series were to poke fun at themselves and their show. (Shatner especially and surprisingly.) There were so many great Trek-related gags, and a lot of fun humor apart from those references as well (Fry's caterpillar escapade and inability to understand the life support/engines problems were both classic.) A ridiculously fun, creative, and laugh-worthy episode.
EDIT 12/6/2017: I loved this episode before I watched all of Original Series films and movie, and I love it even more now. While I knew most of the references by osmosis, it's even more enjoyable getting the subtler, direct references like snippets of dialogue pulled from the show, or the Church of Trek noting that the "Christine Chapel" is closed, or a giant green hand plucking our heroes from space. Plus, seeing the way the episode plays with the tropes of the show is even more outstanding having witnessed them firsthand. Bits like Kirk ripping his shirt, or the desert rocks setting, or the "Metamorphosis"-like energy being are all just outstanding. The comedy still lands perfectly, the story still moves at a great clip, and the interplay between the former castmembers is even better. Definitely one of my favorite episodes.

@andrewbloom but if you’ve never seen any Star Trek this episode is very meh ♂️
I'm a sucker for the whole Groundhog Day routine —and for redheads —, so I had to watch this. I was disappointed by both. The characters are annoyingly pretentious, Nadia is too much of a dick to be likeable and, worst of all, it isn't even slightly funny.
But now I have to watch the whole thing because I really want to know what will happen to Oatmeal. FML(But not everything was meh, at least they ended the episode with one of my favourite Light Asylum songs.)

@misnomer the stairs scene/s in the next episode were quite hilarious.
Well, clearly the 200 year old baby is Briana. Duh. I wonder if Jamie will get to go to the future with Claire to try and save his daughter. I'm excited about all the time traveling that is to come! I hope all the time lines don't get tangled up and confusing.
loading replies
@nightshadee yes they can. But Jamie won’t.
This show just gets more and more stupid with each passing week. It would take too long to list everything, so I'll just mention my one favorite macro and one favorite micro issue: (a) The ex-SECDEF thinks that just disappearing -- when a rock is heading our way that could potentially kill all of humanity -- is the best way to "protect" himself and his husband. And he's allowed to just drive off despite it being painfully obvious that he has critical information that would be good to know. That's a double dose of stupid right there. (b) Elon Musk Jr.'s text messaging app does not include timestamps. Someone probably should have been supervising the high school intern who was in charge of that visual.

@jimgysin also the room that displays all the graphics of where asteroid will hit has glass walls. Everyone can see it! Thought it was a big secret!

VIP8Designated Survivor is great and enjoyable because of the people involved in it... but also increasingly predictable. They have this structure of:
- "Kirkman is dealing with this situation today"
- "Situation goes terribly bad, there's a dilemma, decisions to be made"
- "Kirkman saves the day"
- And meanwhile, "Agent Wells investigates"
I like the show because I love to see Kiefer Sutherland and the supporting cast has been wonderful as well, and it's been a "feel good" show, really - even when the outcome of Kirkman's problems is not that great, there is still a positive message being shared. And what can I say about Lyor's scenes, always on point. However, I fear that without innovation the show doesn't have much of a future, especially with the investigation stuff not being that interesting. We'll see what happens.

@playsonic2 yes, it’s getting too predictable. I knew the people in the space station would be ok. I wish I didn’t know andnit was more suspenseful.
