  1. One thing that is starting to bug me is the infinite knowledge of pop culture that everyone seems to have. I get the writers are trying to be clever, but it's getting inane. Taylor is a millennial who seems to know more about the financial world than almost everyone else on Wall Street (which is a stretch itself) but for her to reference obscure pop culture from the decades ago just stops the show for me. It's a bit much when it is just Axe and Wags, but when Wendy and Taylor get in, it's a reference too far.
  2. They way everyone betrayed Chuck for Jeffcoat, even though they know Jeffcoat is a corrupt asshat, makes me wonder if they are part of longer game by Chuck. Chuck didn't seem upset enough losing his job. Remember how the juice thing played out. If they are still allies, he has them positioned where he needs them, including in Washington at Justice.
  3. What I see. Axe and Chuck team up to go after Jeffcoat's cable empire, taking down Taylor with the move. Another thing, do you think Wendy would still stay loyal to Bobby if she knew he considered murdering Taylor and only decided not to out of strategic reasons and not any moral compulsion?
  4. Remind me not to come here with only 4 or 5 minutes left in an episode. First post killed the ending. I love when shows are unpredictable. I like when they mess with the status quo.
  5. I think that is it. They used a cover version of Deep Purple's Highway Star earlier in the episode.
  6. I had to look up on wiki, because I did not remember Melba or who she really was. I really, truly hope a streaming service like Amazon picks up this show. It is to good to end.
  7. The fool was trying to fly through the ring, didn't know what hit him. Camera man was blind, don't know what he is up to.
  8. If Roman just wanted revenge on Crawford, couldn't he have killed him a dozen times? I also want to thank NBC for putting a big promo over the scene as Roman dies. Really helped the mood.
  9. So the baddie who got the bones for leverage against Red has been silent for 10 months? And Red has done nothing to look for him? Did they agree to put it all on hold while Liz was in a coma?
  10. The version they played was by Paul Stone. And the song was from Breakfast Club, a Hughes movie without Spader. I like the poor, fun Red. Nice complicated plan (as always) to start the rebuild. Red shooting Tom in the foreshadowing scene has to be a misdirect.
  11. Things introduced that have to be explained sooner rather than later. I don't like Ruth Negga as Tulip. Maybe it's a hangover from how evil she was on Agents of Shield. But mainly she is just too different for me from the Tulip of the comics. (And I am not talking about race) she just doesn't feel right to me, her personality seems different than I expect it would be., and Cassidy and Jesse are so spot on.
  12. The song Miller was listerning to was "Secret Heart by Ron Sexsmith.
  13. I enjoyed it far more than the early reviews made me think I would. Will stay to see how they move forward. It would have a far more chance if it was on cable like FX rather than broadcast on Fox.
  14. I don't think Morra is the bad guy. It seems to obvious and I don't know if Cooper, who produces the show, would make himself evil. I think there is more at play. I do expect to see piper again. I am hoping that this show, like Person of Interest, doesn't say a status quo procedural, but goes of in different directions.
  15. If Walt had kept the rocket, they could have gotten there faster. What bugged me is there was a group of scientist down there, very smart people no doubt, who could not be given instructions on the programming. But it seems there is no area of knowledge the team is not well versed in. At this point we should just sit back and enjoy the ride each week as they get in and out of trouble. It's the 60s Batman show with the bottomless Utility Belt.
  16. I am going to go out on a limb here and say Moreland did not have bank guy's predasessor killed. He just used the death to intimanate bank guy. If he did, eventually Sherlock will bring him to justice and we will lose John Noble. I get the sense that he is unethical at times and less in business, but not criminal. (well maybe of the white collar variety) his distain for John Shea leads me to think he is not okay with murder.
  17. I think we all know this show is as realistic as Supergirl. Maybe less so.
  18. So Morra basically pulled a Willy Wonka with Brian as Charlie and Sands as Slugworth. And I wonder if the bomb was just another faked death so Epperly can disappear again, now that Rebecca found him.
  19. Why do I remember Glenn and Maggie together at the end of last week?
  20. The only thing that bothers me is what a ruthless SOB, Bradley Cooper is. I didn't think his movie character would so easily threaten the lives of innocent people.
  21. Very unsatisfying series finale. Too much left up in the air, especially if it doesn't get renewed.
  22. You're not alone, its been pretty good this season. Even Liz is fun to watch.
  23. No doubt Kellog took Emily. I don't think he understands what Alex will do to him if he harms her. He will burn the company to the ground with Kellog in it.
