Do you think we'll find out what those agents wanted with Gaad? Philip said he put his vacation to Thailand, into his report.

I think it's because she seemed happier again. She could be cute with Christopher, but they put her in situations in season 7, like getting married without their daughter present (so she was on edge when they came back, and for some reason, she alone got the backlash from Rory - Chris is her dad, and was there too - it wasn't Lorelai's decision alone), dealing with her parents, and a party she didn't really want (because it wasn't her scene, or because she seemed to be more concerned with everyone else, than she was of Christopher's feelings - like she wasn't so in love that she would love to relive it again for her family). Christopher talking about Rory's room now being Gigi's room (another change she hadn't considered, and wasn't thrilled about). It seemed like she was walking on eggshells a lot - I remember when I first watched it, she seemed so different, even though she hadn't seemed like herself during season 6, with Luke and her issues with not being allowed around April, or that he hadn't told her. It was weird seeing her so off-kilter. Or was it just me, projecting it onto the character?

I've been thinking lately, that I wish I'd taken martial arts as a kid - and this episode confirmed my feeling that it would have been a good thing. I would have loved to have the confidence to walk around knowing that I could take care of myself that way. I agree with those who thought she had a natural reaction of anyone with a child - she protected her, and I thought that was great. I can see Paige being grateful, but then upset - I think that's also a natural reaction to someone you know being responsible for another person being hurt (badly) or worse, even if anyone else would have done the same thing in their shoes.

I was 25 when it premiered, and I agree with the above. I can't remember when I started to hear about it (I remember Lauren Graham was suddenly everywhere in magazines, as "the cool mum"), but the one article that stands out was in 2003. I didn't watch the show at the time - we had trouble with the channel (didn't have cable), and I also thought it was a kid's channel. I think if I'd been able to get hold of DVDs when the show was on (early years), I would have started to tune in on the nights it aired.

I hate Fisk. I guess he set things up for Frank to escape, so that he could take care of certain things outside, and blame him. I also felt bad for D.A. although she'd been trying to cover things up. I don't think she deserved that. I also like Frank and Karen together. That ending was creepy.

Kacey Rohl seems to be popping up everywhere (The Magicians, iZombie, etc). She had me missing Hannibal. I didn't catch the recap, and don't remember exactly how the first season ended, so I'll have to google. I read the books, after seeing the first episode last year, and was interested in that ending. I don't blame Carla's character for taking her own life.

I didn't know about the book.. I've just guessed, in another thread, that they might release it the day after Thanksgiving. It's a four-day weekend for most people. Maybe they'll release it the weekend before? I was hoping it would be more like Labour day weekend, but that might be reserved for season 2 of Narcos.

I was thinking they would release it in October, or on Thanksgiving weekend.

I was going to respond to your posts about this, but my own would be straying off-topic, so I might take it somewhere else. I remember Shogun! Not a book, but the mini-series. Just vaguely, but I remember Richard Chamberlain, and it being re-broadcast at some point, when I was six or seven, during the day, when we had our school holidays. I'm pretty sure that's the case, unless my memory is merging with something else. I'm going to have to look up both the show, and the book. I completely missed Stan seeing that book - I have no recollection of it. I'll have to watch everything again.

I hadn't seen this, until I saw someone else quote it. I agree - we've seen him do a good job, once he's on the trail of something. It was just a passing thought. Like getting to Paige through his son, somehow (since she's been a little "off" with the worry). He would be watching them all the time, though, if he really suspected them.

I started to cry, too. He was perfect for this. I was glad when he shot the guy who threatened his dog, and said, "who cares?" about HIS family, when he was just torturing this guy over the death of his son. Wilson Fisk was involved in all sorts of bad things, like human trafficking, from what I recall (his associations were with people doing that, at least). This guy wanted to rid the place of the people like that, and I can't say that I blame him. I'm watching episode 5, but just barely. I'm going to have to finish tomorrow. After what I just watched, I have no interest in this Elektra person right now (I'm not a big comic fan - I only got into this because I'd heard it was good, last year, and it actually was).

I've just finished episode 4 of Daredevil (season 2). Jon Bernthal is perfect in this - this episode just broke my heart.

I must admit, I'm having a bit of trouble disliking the Punisher, because of this. Just a bit. I love Foggy, and wish that Karen would get together with him.

Now I'm wishing I'd watched this in March, but I was having trouble focusing, and I wanted to watch it when I was feeling better. I watched this episode last week, though, and just watched episodes 2 and 3, so I might have to comment in another thread. The one thing I remember from the first episode, aside from the meat hooks, and the Punisher's entrance in the hospital, was Karen running in heels. I can't even walk in them, so I always end up wondering how they do that, rather than say, the bullets flying in her direction as she runs. That's a motivating force, and I might even be able to run in them, in that sort of situation. Jon Bernthal was peefect for this role.

I was hoping the episodes would be listed here, instead of just an all-season thread. I've just finished episode 3. *edit. Oh, wait, I've only just seen "S02" up at the top. :) I'll check there.

My parents divorced when I was a "tiny human" (almost 4), and remarried when I was a teenager. They lived in different countries, and my dad only recently told me that he was in therapy, and told his doctor (who wanted to know why he wasn't fighting for custody), that he didn't want to do that to us, and didn't want us having to be shipped back-and-forth between countries. Of course, they already went the custody route in this show... but I can see why Arizona might suddenly change her mind. I also wish they'd stuck with the agreement, though, because I moved around several times as a kid, and hated it.

I just assumed she was married, because that's usually the case. I first thought maybe she'd married as a teenager, and she just didn't know where he was, but I guess that's something she would have admitted to Alex. The husband will probably just happen to end up in the hospital, needing emergency surgery.

That was my favourite bit, too. I was envying the optimism of a fictional character. I'd forgotten about that - it really annoyed me, but it was a nice setup for Owen to show up, and tell her that *he* was there. That was sweet.

I agree that was crappy, for her final episode. I'm glad that Meredith turned around and told Amelia that she was there for her, and that Owen obviously thought she was the one for him. I was cringing when she said that Cristina was the love of his life. It was nice to see Bailey actually happy to see her husband, and hugging him. Glad that April is okay, and that baby!! ♥ Poor Deluca. They must have just thought this up for Jo, because I would think that's the sort of thing you tell the man you really want to marry. Unless the other guy has something criminal that he was holding over her head. I wish they hadn't gone there, but they need to save a wedding for next year, I guess.

I sometimes wonder if Stan suspects them, and that's why he keeps blabbing - but if that were the case, he'd be spying on them, the way he spied on Martha.

I thought it was weird, too. I think he has more chemistry with Meredith's sister, although I think she's his boss (not that that stopped anyone else).

I started watching because I like Bradley James, and I loved the Omen movies, when I was younger. I liked this series more than I liked other things (which I continued to watch, anyway - I don't know why, since I'm not big on hate-watching). This felt like a series finale, to me, but I am curious as to what they have planned for another season, if they get renewed. I don't understand why they killed his best friend - or why they made him help the nun into the grave (I loved how he was so gentle with her, and she went along with it, and then hugged him when he was shot and dumped in there, too). They have no problems killing others, so why make him help her in there at all? And killing his best friend was not a good idea - I didn't mind seeing Hershel die tonight, he was willing to kill others, and help Satan. I also think they all seemed crazy. I'm surprised that Anne expected a peaceful death for her daughter. She's been a bloodthirsty crazy lady all season, just wanting Damien to kill someone, and helping him along. I also didn't think Shay converted. I thought it was shock, and relief/amazement that the woman he'd accidentally killed, was alive. I guess he did see Damien save her life, so maybe I'm wrong, and he did convert in some way, after all. Where did all those people come from? It looked like they'd all been lurking in the trees, just waiting for that moment. (Also: I've been thinking about re-watching a few things, because I keep missing things that I later find others talking about.. but I would partly watch this again, just because I'm shallow, and like Bradley James.)

I was doing something, and missed that they were poisoned - until someone mentioned something here, about Strand not committing suicide. I looked up and saw blood coming out of someone's eyes, and thought, "Is that how it all started?" I feel an equal amount of sympathy for kids, and animals. None of them deserved their fates.

I'm going to have to watch this again. The show has improved

And what's this about Owen's sister? Missing, and not necessarily dead? Bloody hell, they're that desperate for a story line that they're going there?
