  1. I must say I'm dissapointed. I wish there were no pagans' thread and no apocalipse and no time travelling. It just spoiled the climate just like in Vampire Diaries when they brought travellers or something. The first two seasons were great and I loved them. Just a local coven with their witchy traditions, some legends and ghosts and of course wild teenager. It was magical and mystic and also had this drop of sarcastic humor. For me this season could be just that contest for the crown and something like that. I guess the apocalipse and all is somehow the show's style. Last season also escalated quickly from just some school events to herald of hell and so on. But that story was great nad this not so much. Not for me anyway. Of course there're some things I liked and actors were great, costumes etc. Just the story it's dissapointing for me. I don't know.. maybe when and if I watch the season again some other time I will feel differently.

  2. The more I think about it I think there's a possibility that they wanted to do Pac North spinoff and JC didn't agree to that. And I think showrunnes and producers of this show are kind of people who say 'you do it my way or get out' and maybe he chose to get out. And if that's the case I can't blame him. In case getting out of Grey's world he propably wanted to do something entirely different and not some Grey's slops.

    I didn't even think about that. But what makes me hesitant on agreeing is this particular part from his statement:

    If it was a health issue, not that he has any obligation to tell us, but I would think that this part wouldn't make it sound like Justin was tired of acting, or acting as Alex Karev. It honestly sounds like Justin just wants to move on from the character of Alex.

    I hate to say it but maybe there's a health issue, either for Justin or a family member. That might explain a polite statement and abrupt departure. 

    Or maybe Pompeo wants to be the only original intern there aka THE SUN. If they cut off the Pac North they're on the last stright to have Pompeo being the only original cast member there. And Bailey already has on foot out the door.

  4. What the hell?

    Alex's storyline was the only I cared about due to him being the only original cast member I care about. Someone mentioned that there's maybe some beef between Chambers and Pompeo and now that I'm thinking about it I can't remember them sharing a single scene this season. Expect of course the trial-not-trial but it was with a lot lot other people too.

    That's sad... I wonder what happens to Jo. They could pretend that she's in Grey Sloan's and his in Pac North but what about Owen and Richard? They would only show Richard and Owen and forget about the head of the entire hospital? (is Alex the head or just a chief of surgical floor?)

    In this show? I mean....POC are represented. Not as central characters but they are there and at least one of them is important for an episode or two. Could be better but they are there, one has some importance, some are shown as powerful black women but overall, they could have a MUCH larger role. But....where am I? Where are the queer people? The lesbians, the gay dudes, the trans people? It really is NOT HARD to have us represented. Again and again, LGBT people left begging for crumbs. It gets really effing old having to just accept this complete lack of representation. And ONE stray insinuation that one "blink and you'll miss him" character MIGHT be "gay" is not representation. Eff the source material! Look at what the Watchmen did with Hooded Justice! Be bold and JUST DO IT. The bard could have and SHOULD have been gay. The Head Mistress of the Mage School should have been lesbian. The councilor that got taken over by the shape shifter could have been trans. But no, apparently here is yet another FANTASY WORLD where LGBT people DO. NOT. EXIST.

    If you knew the source materiał you would know that there ARE gay people in the books. So just be patient for the story to develope and stop complaining!

    And of course, Archie being Archie and deciding to deep fry a turkey inside. 

    There's no thanksigiving in my country and no deep fry turkey (actually turkey would be a very rare dish here), so could anyone tell me in afew words why we shouldn't depp fry a turkey INSIDE? I've looked up a few recipices from google but there was no mention about inside/outside thing. As I see it, it could easily blown up outside as much as inside. I'll be gratefull for some clarification. I really like these curtural tidbits 😉

    Oh,Mary!  For you, this episode was a crazy one, but for everyone else?  Getting held at gunpoint by the family of the drug dealer you are currently feuding with, doesn't quite

    This just reminds me of that high schooler from Friends who thaught that gunpoint was some place (like a town e.g.) and couldn't understand why people would go there if they knew it was that much dangrous. 😉

    The episode was a good one but a little bit dragged. There were moments when I jus wanted to fast foward...

    I guess Elizabeth knew that the priest/dean was interested in psychology? It was too much of a coincidence. 

    I thought about it too when she said tht she had found someone "suited for the job she asked him to do". I guess "the job" was related to helping Phillip.

    I now wonder what happened to that priest? Did they changed him for a newer model as well? 😉

    I completely sided with Margaret at her birthday dinner. She tells her family that her husband cheated on her. And they react by talking about his good qualities? Really? What the hell was that? I don't like Margaret either but that was terrible.  They couldn't give her any sympathy? Any kind words or something? But when she's the one who cheated suddenly there's outrage?

    I think it was because Maragret's affair was in the newspapers and Tony's not. They didn't seem to be troubled because she did it but because everybody found out (in the newspapers). Queen told something like "she took him on some faraway islands to hid it" when she tried to defend her to the Queen Mother.

  9. Judging only by the episode and the show itself I think it's good Charles never become a king. In the episode I found him a spoiled brat who wanted to do what he wanted no matter the consequences. It kinda makes you think that Queen Elizabeth wanted to do whatever she could to keep him out of 'the crown'.

    Also I think the actress that plays Camilla looks nothing like her. That casting is tedious.

  10. I don't like Helena Bonham Carter as Princess Margaret. I actually don't really like the actress but decided to give it a chance and... I still would like someone else to play this role.

    The episode and the story is quite interesting. I think it was a big coincidence that Margaret behavior at the dinner party with the president was a success. She actually did the exact opposite from what she was asked, so I can see why she was denided "a bigger role". Prince Philip was 100% right. And Tobias Menzies is great in that role. 🙂

    The thing that confused me was Hen saying "I thought I had the green light" or something like that.  Since when does an ambulance running lights and sirens have to wait for a green light?  Slow and check traffic, yes, but ...

    Emergency vehicles don't have unconditional priority. The drivers -  of every vehicle- always have to be careful and watch out for other road users. So no one should drive too fast even if you drive an ambulance... So even if the girl didn't stop, Hen shouldn't just go no matter what.. But of course it's not just white and black. Hen and that girl were both distracted somehow and sadly noticed eatch other too late.

    As to the driving around with a body in your windshield, no way a cop would have seen that and NOT stop her, because of the obstructed view. (I’ve seen stops for air freshener hanging from the mirror.) 

    This is what I was thinking! One thing is to have a Halloween decoration, another if that decoration can be a cause of danger. It's like somone wouldn't snow of their windshield... police should stop her a lot sooner.

    On Station 19 they do lots of stuff other than fires. We've seen them go to scenes of car accident and things like that. So it makes some sense. We don't see Ben there all the time because it is hard to coordinate shooting schedules and they probably have to pay him extra when he appears on both shows. They can't do that all the time, they only do it when there is a story need to show him.

    But they wanted to hook up Jackson with someone, and they must like the actress and decided to use Vic instead of a random new person.  So they keep finding reasons to show her.

    I get that this is what they do on the show. It's similar in 9-1-1 show. But like we know reality is often different than tv shows. So my question is do firefighters in US also do that or is it farfetched?

  14. I'm deeply confused about one thing  Jakcson's girlfriend is a firefighter but she keeps showing up at the hospital? And with patients I guess. Shouldn't she take care of fires etc? I mean we don't see Bailey's husband as much as her. In my country firefighters has strictly specified roles which is taking care of fires, accidents (e.g. when they have to cut corbody), fallen trees and stuff like thut not taking care of 'hurt' people. For people there are paramedics. Sure there're times when firefighters  have to take care of people who are bleeding, women in labor etc (and they are trained to do that) but it's more a coincidence not because they were specifically called to take care of that. At first I saw this concept on 9-1-1 but and now here. I don't get it. Is it different in US or am I missing something? I will be very gratefull for clarification 🙂

    I also cannot stand how often the characters say each other's names. Once I started noticing it, I couldn't ignore it. Even when only two people are in a room, they say each other's names every second sentence. Kiernan also does this weird pause most of the time right before she says a name. It drives me nuts

    Actual dialogue from this ep:

    "Sabrina, they're mortal." 
    "Don't forget, Nick, so am I."

    "See what I see, Harvey."
    "Roz."
    "Harvey, see what I see."
    "Roz, what's going on?"
    "Keep drawin', Harvey. Just keep drawin'."

    The entire season was like that.

    It's not just this show. Almost every other show has this weird habit. I don"t get it. It makes dialogues very unnatural.And I laugh everytime someone makes the pause "Whad do you do /long pause/ ...Sabrina?"

    Maybe he got the slippers at Tiffany's or something 😛

    I think they're playing Heigl a bit older - maybe she's playing a 45, 46 year old, so when she was 16, she was babysitting an 8 year old

    I think Rachel is a lot younger than MM. I think she was around Mike's age in the suits. They were before their 30's at the beginning of the show in my opinion

  17. I know Faye it's the bad guy but that whole story it's kind of funny. 🙂 They really do break the law right and left and act like puppies and now they're mad someone is calling them out on that.

    Well.. That's dissapointing. Thank you for the info though 😉

    I found some comment below the article you presented and that sums the situation up perfectly for me:

    "Never even crossed my mind that he would HAVE an identity. He’s just the narrator – like the narration of a book (which always made sense to me seeing as Jane’s a writer and the show is set up like a book with each episode it’s own chapter). Personally, having the narrator be a real person kind of takes something away from the story for me. :/"

    I thought it was such a cool call back to season 1 when Rose found her demise the way she did.

    Can you remind me what was that? A few you of you mentioned that it is a callback to season 1 but I can't remember what was taht.

     more episode, the narrator will be revealed, and it will be done.

    How are you so sure that narrator will be revealed? There's a possibility that narrator it's just a narrator and has nothing to do with Jane universe. For me that would be the best option. If it's tourn out that narrator is somone from the show I wil be very very dissapointed. And it if it's Jane's baby or grand(or grand-grand)baby I will be dissapointed even more... That would be such predictible and cliche move... It would be better if it was her biographer orsomeone like that, not her family.

  20. I'm so tired of Petra's mother keeps showing up. I feel like her story ended many seasons ago so just get rid off her. I think they just bring her back when they don't have fresh idea for some new drama in Petra's life. But it's sooo boring and the character is so repulsive. I hope it won't last long. 

    I like that Rafael is back in the hotel buisness but I don't like that Petra is the owner and the boss. I feel like it was quite random for her to own the hotel. But Rafael didn't do anything to get it back after he decided to start a new job and it was Petra who get rid of Milos and others soo I'm little bit torn. I like Petra so let's see where this is going. 😉

  21. I like Sansa being Queen in The North. The North deserves to be independent and I like Sansa, so... And Arya's journey under the Stark flag also great. I guess Jon is quite happy.

    I hope Brienne choose willingly to abandon Stark girls to serve Bran and Bran didn't command her to do it. That would be shitty of him.. I mean she swore to protect the Stark girls. I know she's not from the North but I guess she could stay there.

    I was thinking it was just less makeup. Maybe they are filming with higher resolution cameras. If Chloe wore something sexier, people wouldn't have to spend so much time looking at her face.

    I think she got a ton of botox, because her face did not move. 

    I think it was her lips. I didn't compare it with previous seasons/photos so I might be wrong but I think she got her lips enlarged (is that a proper way to say it in eng?) with botox.
