First Impressions - AoS: "4,722 Hours"

This is by no means a deeply intense dissection of the episode.

That will happen eventually after my purchase of the Blu-ray.

I've put my quick comments and notes after seeing the episode only once.

You've been warned...

Season 3 Episode 5: "4,722 Hours"

The Good:

Best episode of the season. Best character driven episode of the season. And a big THANK YOU to actually answering a question. Plus - points for having her document everything on her phone. I never would have thought of it. Speaking of questions - 

The Bad:

Planet gotta name? Why the hell not?

Speaking of names...

The WTF?:

...uh...

Vance Astro? Anyone? No?

WHAT...THE HELL?

Adorkification Moment(s):

He doesn't hesitate. Badass.

First Impressions - Gotham: "By Fire"

This is by no means a deeply intense dissection of the episode.

It's just my quick comments and notes after seeing the episode only once (a la AoS).
Spoilers ahead.

You've been warned...


Season 2 Episode 6: "By Fire"

The Good:

See AoS? THIS is how you do an origin story.

Points for kicking...

...and "Ginger to Ginger".

Chainsaw hand?

The Bad:

Where's his mama?

The WTF?:

Cat and Firefly robbing thieves and other baddies? Without getting shot?

Going up against a firebug with no fire trucks? or hell...blankets?

Adorkification Moment:

Who the what now?

WTF (Did I Just Read)? Friday...10/30/2015

So I've been waiting a while for this to come out...

 ...and I was all

but now that I've read it, I'm all

 Here's why.

First Impressions - Arrow: "Restoration"

This is by no means a deeply intense dissection of the episode.

It's just my quick comments and notes after seeing the episode only once.
Spoilers ahead.

You've been warned...


Season 4 Episode 3: "Restoration"

The Good:

Go Felicity...talking to the boys like that!

The Bad:

I still don't know what Nanda Parbat is - a building? A city? A country?

The WTF?:

Why would Malcolm say no to Thea's request? What should he care whether or not Sara's soul is obsessed with killing? 

It wouldn't affect Thea (except for lightening the guilt of killing her in the first place), 

and he holds no feelings at all towards Laurel.

But Nyssa not wanting Sara back...that make sense. (Great seeing her again by the way.)

No response to his running for Mayor? Like at all?

Adorkification Moments:

So this guy, Echo Kellum, is going to be Mr. Terrific? OK! Who he now?

Points for the Markovia mention!

First Impressions - Flash: "Family of Rogues"

This is by no means a deeply intense dissection of the episode.

Spoilers ahead.

You've been warned...

Season 2 Episode 3: "Family of Rogues"

The Good:

A big "Thank You" for keeping Jay Garrick around.

I liked the interaction between Barry and Iris. That was cute.

This is one of the best characters on TV. 

He's well cast ( I mean "Marvel Studios-level" casting) and written beautifully, I'd watch this guy play this role 24/7. 

The Bad:

It's just a matter of time?

THAT was painful.

The WTF?:

No huh? Like not at all?

Adorkification Moments:

Michael...F**KING...Ironside!?!?!

And he's exploding people's heads?

That's AWESOME!!!

First Impressions - AoS: "Devils You Know"

This is by no means a deeply intense dissection of the episode.

That will happen eventually after my purchase of the Blu-ray.

I've put my quick comments and notes after seeing the episode only once.

You've been warned...

Season 3 Episode 4: "Devils You Know"

The Good:

Laser Finger?

Good one Coulson!

Yay! May's back...sort of...

While I admire Hunter's actions, I'm glad his name isn't Killer...

The Bad:

...'cause he sucks at it!


And now we're going to have weeks of her being pissed at Hunter.


Is that how he's getting written off the show? To avoid May's wrath?

The WTF?:

Okay ABC/Marvel Minds, you have one member on this show from the books...

 ...(sigh) fine. Two...

...so when are we gonna see her kick some ass again?

+

Yet another week of head-scratching and waiting,

but not with this guy. He gets away. Literally with murder. AGAIN!

And I still say HYDRA's symbol is wearing shades. I guess that's because it's future's so bright?

What? Too dated? 

Okay. Kids, go to YouTube and look up Timbuk3. Then come back.

Adorkification Moment(s): I still wish there was one.

I did like the "Detectives" aspect of their work. This show could use a little more X-Files in it.

And while I am sorry to see May's husband die,

 can we get a Doc Samson?

Any Doc Samson? I'm not picky...
