So if there's a season two, are we going to be seeing Bobbie, and if so, who the fuck is going to play her? There aren't many six foot plus amazonian swimsuit models of Polynesian descent working in Hollywood as far as I'm aware.

Yeah Agent Lang is a dick. In fact, he's a dick to almost a comical extent. We get it, Dick Wolf, we're not supposed to like him. Jeez, it's like you've never heard of the words "Light touch". I'm sure the thought process in the writers room went like this: "Hey, we need the audience to really not like these guys so they'll root for Erin to throw away her career and crawl back under her surrogate dad's wing by the end of the season. Let's take one of our tried and true Angry White Guy archetypes and crank up the asshole to 11, that should do it." He's played by Bailey Chase, who played Branch Connally in Longmire most recently.

Boutella plays a bad guy. There is also, from all appearances, precisely one woman among the Kingsmen. She's the protagonist's fellow trainee and probable love interest because of course.

Clearly, Control took the threat to heart and relocated her daughter.

Peggy looks very, very good with her hair tied back. I'm just saying.

Roxxon are Marvel's resident Evil Bastards, Incorporated. They're not terrorist groups like HYDRA or AIM, but you might want to check and double check the fine print on your employment contract before you sign on with them. Among other things, they consider "termination" to be quite literal.

In a recent interview, I think I saw Jon and Greg say that Reese would've been the character on the chopping block if Sarah hadn't become pregnant. I honestly would've been ok with this. Reese has steadily become more detached from the overarching plot, and he's more a symbol than a character these days. Plus one of the problems of having a long running show built around two white men who are sacred cows is that all of your casualties become minorities and women.

Really pedantic, but when Gibbs, Tony and Bishop were confronting that ex-Army guy, they had him sandwiched and were pointing guns at him. This is a serious gun safety no-no, since both groups of agents could shoot past (or through) the target and hit the other.

If you thought you saw Shaw in Detroit, that's because the ISA operator codenamed "Viridian Nine" is apparently played by Nitasha Bhambree, who also works on the show as Sarah Shahi's stunt double. (She also was, it seems, Megan Fox's stunt double in the TMNT movie. I'm assuming they lightened up her skin a lot for that.) She actually got a line, which apparently makes her SAG eligible? I'd love it if she got a recurring role as a supporting ISA agent, especially if Control sides with Team Machine.

Samaritan's kid avatar was a terrible idea and he's still a terrible idea now. When Relevance hit I was totally down for a Person of Interest spinoff featuring the ISA, and that is still true. CRIMSON SIX is interesting (plus: Ashur!) plus they already have a nice stable of supporting characters. For an intelligence/wetworks agency the ISA is pretty diverse in its hiring practices. Next episode isn't until Feb. 3rd? Thanks Obama!

I too will be excited to see the next season of The 38. I'm being optimistic about the casualties that will be inflicted in the second half of this season, here.

I'm still pissed that they killed Macy offscreen. I liked Macy: she was competent, acted (and dressed) professionally, and had a great command presence that would make her a good team leader. Naturally, that means viewers hated her. I don't get it. I don't give a shit about Diane in particular. She was the psycho ex wife and little more. My problem is that its a tired trope, and lazy writing. While I don't exactly expect prestige cable drama writing from the NCIS stable, it's still a bit jarring. Plus my tolerance for Gibbs' moping is already stretched thin, so this development doesn't help.

I really enjoyed watching her beat the shit out of that asshole, though. He's just lucky she didn't kill him. Nose, throat, what's the difference? I'm a little disappointed that this forum doesn't show up on the main forum page. You have to go through the Bs instead, which is kind of a pain.

Yeah, the thing is, lets completely forget about how it's a double standard and Voight forbade Halstead and Lindsay from dating while they were working together. (Not that it would've mattered much, since clearly they still cared enough for each other that one could have suffered a loss in performance if the other were injured, just as friends.) The problem is, there is an instance in this very episode of Voight commenting on Ruzek being unable to perform at 100% or even show up at all because Burgess was injured. What if someone on the team needed Ruzek there, and his absence led to a teammate being killed or injured, or allowed a suspect to escape, or led to a civilian bystander being killed or injured? So given that Voight sees that he loses a team member (Ruzek) if Burgess is injured, he invites Burgess to join the team? He's ok with the idea that if she gets shot again he'll be two teammates short instead of one? Not to mention that we see Ruzek threaten to assault one of his colleagues because his girlfriend was injured. That kind of instability is acceptable to Voight? I don't buy it.

The SSR was around during the war, but it was a military organization now transforming into a civilian organization, staffed with general infantry veterans instead of spies and commandos.I think there's a lot of story potential that could be mined from the horrors the other SSR agents experienced in the Pacific theater. Like, one of the douchebags got his sense of humor shot off at Guadalcanal? Well, taking that island was pretty unhumorous.

Unlikely, because we (the audience), actually hear her voice. She's a real person, not a construct, we just haven't met her (on camera) yet. It's total bullshit because Jarvis isn't even particularly effeminate, he's just domestic. But I guess unless you're a total swaggering cigar chewing manly man you have to be gay.

David and Goliath never made sense, because on one hand you had a man armed with one of the most lethal weapons of its time and highly skilled in its use, and on the other hand you had Goliath.

Jarvis isn't gay, he's British. He has a wife and he sparked with Peggy when he was patching her up. I'm 99% sure he's attracted to women.

Yeah, Roman, who for the most part is not a great cop, is still a much better cop than Burgess is.

This show is just the right about of totally fucked up, although Proctor and Rebecca banging has to take it to a whole new level. Christ. Everything else is great. Carrie is having an identity crisis and a new fuckbuddy. Brock gets some, and he and Siobhan get some extrajudicial murder too. Holyshitwhatthefuck Chayton beats a dude down and takes out a Marine convoy with a bow and arrows. That actually could happen, since body armor is weak towards cutting edges and nobody's going to be wearing heavy, cumbersome strike plates on a low-risk stateside caravan mission. Job is awesome, and Deva is reasonably not annoying for a teenaged girl in a prestige cable drama (ahem, Dana). And Nola's back! I love Nola, and she looks like she's going to bleed some people before she's done avenging her brother. Please don't die Nola.

Huh, that TvLine interview actually answered a question that was bugging me all season, which was why Shaw was wearing all these cleavage revealing outfits. It was annoying because in Life season 1 she was looking great in mens' shirts and flats with her hair up, but then all of a sudden in season 2 Ravich and co. sexed up her wardrobe in a really unnecessary fashion. So why the change here? So that's an explanation.

When Diane threatened to audit NCIS if she didn't get her way with Gibbs I wanted him to throw back at her the words "Conflict of interest". I mean, it's a simple concept! Episodes like these remind me that, well, Gibbs is boring. I don't really like Gibbs, while I like the interaction between DiNozzo, Bishop, and McGee a lot. Plus I'm tired of women being fridged to make Gibbs feel sad*, and I'm very tired of having Patriarchal McBroody Gibbs' personal drama tying into the terrorist mastermind du jour who goes out of his way to worm into Gibbs' head. * Well, Kate, and Diane whose death emulated Kate. Being reminded of how Kate died just reminded me of how fucked up it was (not "this is a heinous act" fucked up but rather "what the fuck, writers?" fucked up). And there's Shannon two. That's still a lot of dead women on the altar of Gibbs' pain.

Burgess is a terrible cop. It seems like every other episode has her fucking up in some way that results in Platt chewing her out, and then frantically scrambling to fix her fuckup. That she doesn't shit the bed 100% of the time and looks good as a hooker seem to be too low standards for entry into a supposedly "elite" unit. She can tie her shoes and people call her a good cop, but that doesn't make it so. And elsewhere I've commented on how bullshit Ruzek being in Intelligence is. I hated it when he thought he, not having graduated from the Academy, thought he could tell actual patrol cops what to do last season. God knows why they replaced Melissa Sagemiller with him, it pissed me off at the time and pisses me off still. I can't wait for somebody to put a bullet in his douchey face, but I guess Dick Wolf likes him. Apparently the actress who plays Sumner is pregnant, but I would rather see her back on the team than Burgess in that position.

Instead of bringing Burgess (who has accomplished nothing but fucking up) into the unit, wouldn't Voight be better off offering the spot to someone who is older, more experienced, actually has a detective's badge and training, has already worked with the unit, and is a little less white? Ruzek has always been terrible. That guy only exists because Dick Wolf is terrified of having two women on the cast where neither of them is a comic relief fuckup love interest.

Eh, unprofessional or no, I've seen what the kind of fan who promotes the couples they ship on social media can be like, and I just cannot bring myself to give a shit if they got their feelings hurt.
