Well, that was a fun two-parter! Bela is a hoot. I'd like to see her back more often.

Yeah, I'm out. I've gone from "I need to know, g'ddammit!" just a few episodes ago to "I really don't care anymore". I don't know the source material either, but the show feels as if they were hell-bent to artificially stretch out a plot that should be 2 seasons at most to 4 or 5 or however many they are planning. The first season had a lot of thrill/ tension for me and I cared for many of the characters (ofc they just had to kill many of them off bc that's the hot thing ever since GOT, but still, there were some left to care about) ; now I'm just bored. I had to force myself to not do other things or just drift off. I have to give them credit for an unintended lol though: When they had Shirl smear ointment on Knox' conveniently exposed body. Substle, show, subtle!

Well, I didn't like the episode very much, except for the very end, when Ransom was trying to find a tagline. I guess that makes it easier to say good-bye to the show.

Pretty much this. I wholeheartedly agreed with Boimler's comments about multiverses.

Hmmm... Unless a new character arrives, will the new li be Flower?

I forgot to say I love the title, a nice homage.

Oh yes, I meant to say Nigel, sorry. Will fix it.

Thank you, @Notabug. Lester? They effing killed off Lester?! Geeze!

I agree that they've somehow regressed Isaac's character. I chalk it up to flanderization. And he's gone from my absolute favorite character to... pretty low on the list, for me. I did like that he apologized to Nigel, plus Nigel's body count, but... wasn't he (N.) shown as rather shy during most of their relationship? It took a very long time until he sort of asked for more. Now, I could fanwank this as "his sexual experiences were merely physical, so in his first serious relationship he could be shy" but I think the writers simply don't put much thought into his character, so I won't either. That said, I enjoyed the episode. Orgyversary!

I enjoyed this one much more than the previous ep! Fun to see Elsbeth as a juror (and the bane of the judge's /murderer's existence) and I enjoyed her son, too. I'm curious as to how she'll bring the culprit to justice and what his secret is. Maybe his family wasn't really on the Mayflower. lol.

Yeah, I'm really bored now, I almost quit mid-episode. Yay, they found something else for Jules to MacGyver! This show had such potential, but now it just feels artificially stretched out. I find myself not caring for scenes with Simms and/ or his wife. In part it's because I find Simms a weak link acting-wise, but also a very cardboard character. When Bernard told him he was disappointed I was hoping he'd murder him, too, but no such luck.

Didn't care for the story, but GARAK!!! And almost with the husband he belongs to! I could've sworn Bashir wasn't voiced by Siddig, he still sounds so young. Some of the jokes were mildly amusing, like about the *Ensign* Kims, and I fully endorse Boim's comments about alternate universes. Still, weird that they're stuffing all these somewhat indulgent episodes into the last stretch. We hardly even saw Tendi and Rutherford. Still... Garak!

As I skipped this season because, well, I hated it, could someone tell me who, if anyone, got murdered in the end to kick next season off? (Also, who murdered Sazz?)

I felt the humor was a bit forced in this one.

Yes, it's definitely not exactly the same. But legal punishment is draconic, and in my headcanon, whoever rebels will be sent to the mines (or cleaning). I have more trouble with the whole premise. If it is simply that there was a catastrophy (war/ enviromental/ whatever) and humanity made the silos so some could survive, it makes no sense that there are such rigid laws for every micromanagement thing. Or that there is no communication between the silos. At the very least, you could join forces in terms of entertainment! Or why are there exactly 50 silos... etc etc.
