The only reason seems to be that, despite her proclamations of love and efforts to get Butch's memories back, Tabby actually rejected him when he did get those memories back. Because... he's pale, I guess? He developed a different fashion sense? He may or may not smell funny?(Barbara is the only character that ever alluded to that, and she obviously hates him. Ed, Oswald, not anyone else ever suggested such a thing, and they're not the types that would worry about hurting his feelings). That's one of the reasons I have zero sympathy for Tabby. She's a horrible remorseless killer, she's running around w/ Barbara, who killed Butch, and she rejected him when he got his mind back. Hell, it appears they killed three innocent people to restore Butch, fuck all of them.

According to who? Rob Thomas is a football/sports fan and has sprinkled plenty of sports jokes and references in his shows. He played college football at TCU. The name Major Lillywhite (who was an all conference defensive back at Washington) is a football joke, he's named after former University of Texas all conference quarterback Major Applewhite (the school Rob eventually graduated from). College and Pro football are immensely popular in this country, you'd be hard pressed to find any demographic category that doesn't include a significant level of fandom.

What? How do you figure that? According to Malcolm, Trish, and Jessica herself, she tends to take the cases of sleazy people who pay well and that she doesn't care about. The only pro bono case she had any intent to take on this season was the old woman looking for her son and that was because Malcolm pestered her into it. She took on Hope's case pro bono last season, but she had a pre-existing tie to the case and Kilgrave, and felt some responsibility for what happened to Hope. We really have not seen Jessica going out of her way to help people.

Trish had fame. Her face was plastered all over the city for her show, she was followed by paparazzi and on tabloid covers. She wanted to be Griffin because he was someone who made a difference. He put his life on the line to bring the stories of those suffering in conflict zones. He reported real news that affected people's lives.

"Should" is a word that really doesn't apply to time travel, since it's not an actual thing and there are no rules as to how it would actually work if it were. And the show hasn't listed out any concrete, in-universe rules as to how they believe it would work. By that logic, all the future humans they just liberated should have desperately prevented them from traveling back to save the world, because that will wipe them all from existence. It was pointless of Shield to even go through the motions as if they were helping them.

I'm shocked that they're really gonna give us Hellcat, or at least fully set it up for future seasons. I didn't think they would go that far with her. I know a lot of people were against the idea, but I'm all for it.

"How these things work"? Time travel doesn't exist, there is no way of knowing how "these things work", just competing speculation and various theories. Tons of fiction has been created on the premise of "rewriting" history through time travel, as well as the idea of multiple, concurrent timelines. Neither is more valid than the other. The one thing that seems to be ignored by the "kill daisy" plotters is that if their plan does work as they hope, none of them will ever be born. They all appear to have been born after the world destruction, the odds that their conception would still occur as it did without that event are non-existent.

To be fair, I didn't really buy the whole group of friends in its entirety. Alex, for all his "get the group back together" gusto, really didn't seem to be interested in or even like anyone but Nico. None of their relationships really felt all that strong to me, I couldn't imagine a time when they would all sit together at lunch or do anything as a group other than being occasionally being forced to by their families, and even then I'd imagine them texting on their phone the whole time until they could leave.

Always good for a laugh to see very mundane items being repurposed as something exotic on a show. I cracked up when I was watching Battlestar Gallactica and they were towing fighter ships around the hanger with cherry pickers exactly like the ones found in our warehouse at work.

I actually stopped to check if it was Olivia Olsen playing Louise, Jessica Sula looks a little bit like her. One of my favorite meaningless facts is that after Love, Actually; Sangster and Olsen went on to voice love interests Ferb and Vannessa Doofenschmirtz on Phineus and Ferb.

Jebus, this group of assholes becomes more unlikable every season. Colt whining like a baby about the Peterson ranch 5 minutes after his dad has a heart attack. Rooster is a complete f-up bitching that it wasn't his fault he served a minor, in what kind of altered reality would Maggie Lawson's character be remotely interested him. Maybe Beau should have wasted less time putting stupid provisions about black helicopters in his contract and gotten a real lawyer to advise him that he should get paid when he signs the deal, not some stupid "you get paid when we break ground" nonsense. Couldn't see that coming 5 miles away. At this point I'm just watching because I'm hoping they lose everything and their miserable lives are ruined.

I've felt for a while they really missed a nice opportunity to tie the shows together with Trish's show. They did once with Luke Cage, they could have easily had a scene in DD2 with just a radio playing in the background at Nelson and Murdock that had Trish debating the trial of the Punisher or in Iron Fist discussing the return of the missing Danny Rand. It would have been amazing if they had snuck something like that in DD1, with just an at the time unknown radio personality discussing the Devil of Hells Kitchen and Wilson Fisk, then revealing it as Trish in Jessica Jones(I understand the role hadn't been cast, or probably even written, yet.But it would have been great).

I'm curious about that, too. This is very different from comics Punisher in that Frank's been given a new identity and a clean slate to build a normal life, he's going to group talking about the challenge of adjusting to that life now, returning to his vigilantism would feel like a major regression of the character. On that note, even with the new identity he's hanging around New York, how doesn't EVERYONE recognize him? His face has been splashed all over the media, first with his trial and now with the events of this series. I'm perplexed at how Micro's wife didn't recognize him after his shave and haircut.

Skyler, I didn't recognize her from Scream Queens, she was good in that. Season one was pretty funny, I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. Season two didn't really keep my interest through the first episode, though. Blink traditionally has pointy ears, but we haven't seen them yet.

I think the deciding factor here is that Rawlins lied to the team and told them they had Senate approval. Even with it being a war crime, I think Frank had gotten to the point where he was willing to follow any orders without question as long as he believed they had come through the proper chain of command.

And? That article just bolsters that they are going in chronological order, roughly at real time or faster pace... "While Daredevil's most recent season dropped in March of 2016, less time than that has passed for the characters. That suggests that, though these Marvel series may have been spaced out over the course of over two years, all the action may have happened within a year's time." DD2 and Defenders were separated by 5 months, so that or less between those events. Also, the "6 months later" time jump came after Frank traveled to Mexico and finished his mission, which took place post DD2 and we have no idea how long that took. It could have extended the time between DD2 and Punisher by several more months.

Had to be post Defenders. There is no way Matt would stand on the sidelines after Karen very publicly put herself in Lewis's crosshairs the way she did. Even if they were on the outs, he would have been shadowing her everywhere she went, and right next to Frank when it all went down.

I doubt that it takes place prior to The Defenders. A. The timeline as described may sound a little off, but they have stuck to chronological order with all the series so far and I doubt they would just throw one in out of order now. B. And later in the series...

Loving this series so far, but was anyone else really uncomfortable with Frank brutally killing a bunch of U.S.soldiers like that? I mean, that were probably not in on any conspiracy, they were probably just sent by the CIA and told that were going to neutralize a national security threat. Even being an extra-judiciary hit-squad, they weren't that much different than what Frank was doing in Afghanistan, our even what he's doing now. Yeah,they were trying to kill him, but if down the road we see a SWAT team closing in on Frank using lethal force, is it going to be OK if Frank kills them? The Punisher kills bad guys and criminals, I'm not sure if they would fit the bill for that.

A couple of questions. How in the Hell was Maximus financing the scientist from the moon? How did he amass any wealth in U.S.dollars or any other currency? What kind of nutball thinks 1400 inhumans, very few of which had what looked to be substantial powers and technology that didn't seem too far ahead of earth, are going to fight a war against 7 billion humans(including the hero's in the MCU, some of which could take down all 1400 inhumans on their own) and win? This show had so much stupid, one could go on for days.

Nothing I've seen of Karnak suggests he would want to set up a democracy or that he would be a good leader of any kind. He seems perfectly in line with the status quo. His statement that he wanted to put Morris down immediately after terrogenisis says all I need to know about him.

There was nothing wrong with calling it KFC, I was born in '71 and we referred to Kentucky Fried Chicken as such my whole life, long before the official switch. The bucket had the appropriate Kentucky Fried Chicken name and logo.

Loved this season, was a great follow up. But one minor complaint sticks out for me- How creepy is it that middle aged, balding conspiracy nut guy is encouraging a couple of high school kids to bang in his guest room? After plying them with alcohol? And the "pull out" joke the next morning felt really out of place on this show. I'm not wilting flower, i like some raunchy stuff when it is in the right context, but i didn't really need images of Jonathan splooging on Nancy's stomach....

I'm about the same age as these characters, and i enjoy that. They do a decent job of capturing the era without going over the top like so many shows do, where it just becomes a caricature of the era. Although, they gotta let Will and Mike get some new haircuts. Even by 1984 middle school nerd standards, those are bad.

Wow, didn't even cross my mind. That was a nice bit of really subtle foreshadowing. I even thought to myself a few times that Dig Dug was an odd choice, it was poplar but not really one of the "premier" games of the era that pops into everyone's head when you think back about it. I did like the inclusion of Dragons Lair, the worst, most over-hyped and ultimately disappointing game ever.
