Amen. I love Delilah, and I'm glad she and McGee didn't break up. I hope they get a chance to actually be HAPPY. I've gotten to the point that just seeing Bishop irks me, even though I don't remember her doing anything particularly egregious last night. Tony in the closet cracked me up.

Although I'm a proponent of decriminalizing marijuana, I find the heavy-handed preaching in this episode annoying. I would rather have seen valid arguments from both sides instead of having everyone on the same side. As far as "who dunnit," I knew as soon as the kid said in the first interview that he won that specific writing award. They never include specific information like that unless it's going to be pertinent to something in the case. When Bones and Angela were building the murder weapon, I said out loud, "And I bet it's the shape of that writing award." Yup. Predictable. It was good to see Wendell again. I also thought it was predictable that Cam had to fire him. I live and work in Washington state where pot is legal, but using it is still grounds for dismissal at most workplaces. I honestly didn't know the laws about the use of medical marijuana, but I can see Cam's point. Whether it *should* be that way is debatable, but federal facility aside, she has to be concerned about cases being thrown out. I was really surprised (but glad) he could be rehired as a contractor.

We got Starz for Black Sails (for my husband), and we'll go ahead and keep it for Outlander. I would have gotten it just for Outlander, but Black Sails got my husband on the bandwagon for the extra bucks. I wonder how closely they'll follow the books. Does anyone know how many episodes they're doing?

Loved that Alana stuck it out and was sorry Keith had to get medi-vac'd out. I thought he said something in the after show about his blood sugar being zero. Maybe that was just hyperbole, I dunno. When I watched the episode, I speculated that his electrolytes had gotten so out of whack that it had caused the seizure. I also wish we'd seen more of her time alone. I guess since her shelter was made and she knew where the water and food were (what there was of it), there was less to focus on. Sounds like she was smart enough to sleep as much, and drink as much, as possible to conserve energy. Also seems like there should have been more sea life she could have hunted for. I was glad when I saw her eating some termites at the end. I always wonder why they don't immediately go on the hunt for bugs and grubs. Those have just about the best protein they could possibly get -- and they're not likely to get injured getting it.

I watched the show initially because it was a Whedon show. I didn't love it, but I stuck with it -- and it got better. I got to the point that I was actually enjoying everyone except Skye... and then it began to nosedive. At this point, the only characters I want to see are FitzSimmons. I don't watch the movies, so I find the disconnect between the show's direction and the movies' direction to be tiresome. Can it be saved? I don't know. The special snowflake and everyone's love for her may make this Must-Avoid TV.

I'm joining in the discussion for this one as well. I absolutely loved the first three books. I've read the first one so many time, it's in tatters. I really can't wait for the show.

The way they never got to eat the snakes cracked me up. (I'm a bad person.)
