  1. I thought there was a ratings and scheduling topic but couldn't find it, so am starting a new one. What I am wondering is, with Agent Carter cancelled, will AOS still go on hiatus until March or will it be back in January like most other network shows. It's stupid to have it off for three weeks and then back for two and then nothing until March. On a related note... While I loved Agent Carter, the long hiatus always annoyed me. ABC does the same with Once Upon a Time and I hate it there as well... I feel like it often sucks momentum out of a season or causes a jumbled rush to get through story and plot lines for a conclusion instead of just continuing them after the long break.
  2. Does this mean the show is doing an episode in Italy? It seems like a lot of lead-up for a trip we won't see...
  3. The magic isn't repressed since he didn't know there was anything to repress, maybe? They touch on this in the first movie a little, with the boa constrictor in the zoo, but in the books they mention a bunch of weird stuff happening around Harry, like a bad haircut his aunt gave him regrowing overnight, that is pointed out as signs of his wizardry. His muggle-born mom is shown in memories doing magic before knowing she is a witch, as well. Maybe stuff like that helps prevent such a situation?
  4. I was wondering that myself! It certainly seems like it would fit the description of what happened with Ariana. Even how Dumbledore's mother I actually went back to Deathly Hallows and looked up Aberforth's description of what happened to Ariana and it made me even more certain that is what happened to her. It could just as well be describing Credence.
  5. Really liked it. Wish the New Salemers were a bit more fleshed out and less cuultish and one dimensional. Feel like that would have made them better, more threatening foes. Also: what was going on with the execution they were staring on Tina? It seemed almost like a giant pensive(used by wizards for storing and observing memories). Were they trying to get her to go into the liquid and drown by enticing her with memories. While I guessed Credence was going to be the person linked to the Obscurus I was not expecting Grindelwald to show up. While I suspected towards the end, I should have guessed it sooner. I noticed he gave Credence a Deathly Hallows necklace. Wanting wizards to come out of hiding was very true to what is shown of his philosophy in the book. Really enjoyed all the animals. The niffler and bowtruckle were adorable! Also liked having a non-magic character be part of the main group of characters. I like having an outsiders perspective into the wizarding world.
  6. Liked this episode. Wish they hadn't brought Geoff into it... That storyline just drags the show down. I liked the interactions between Murray, Marvin(that's the Uncle's name, right?) and Adam and the conflict between Beverly and Bill with Barry and Laney trying to play peacemakers. As a vegetarian I found it true to life how dismissive people were of Erica. I have had relatives tell me it was a phase(even though I had already been Vegetarian for years). Multiple people have actually asked me what I eat at Thanksgiving, as if turkey is the only thing served.
  7. The only thing I am worried about is that it will be up against This Is Us, a ratings powerhouse, on Tuesday at that time. Hope that the live ratings don't take a hit because of that. Luckily I think streaming now plays such a big role a hit to live views isn't necessarily a death sentence.
  8. First off; Wally... I wish I could be surprised that you would pick up a villaina glowing rock of evil, but you were willing to jump in front of oncoming vehicles to "kick-start" powers you weren't sure you had, so.... I really liked the end and reveal of the Savitar. Had a real horror movie vibe. Like that Caitlin's powers are out in the open now. Keeping something like that secret would only serve to hurt the team.
  9. We are getting an Inhumans TV series next fall on ABC.
  10. I really liked several things this episode. First was the Snowing scenes, and how you could see it wearing on them over time. Especially liked David watching the video Snow made of her and Neal. I am sure this will be solved before too long, but I was just thinking how it's good Neal is a baby and how it would mess him up if he could register what was going on with his parents... Loved Hook. From helping Henry choose a tie, to figuring something was up with Emma, to getting the EQ at the end he was awesome this episode. I know this will be unpopular but I like when Emma and Regina team-up and it is not all about what a martyr Reginia is. I like when they are a united front, especially when it comes to Henry. Oh, Rumple... I love when you are a scheming, manipulating, evil bastard but you have been past that for a long time now and it was reaching alarming heights. I was (and remain) sincerely scared for Belle. Even though the Rumbelle pairing has long since crossed the line into abusive territory this was a new low for Rumple.
  11. Being born in 87 I was excited to see the year portrayed in the show! I enjoyed the dynamic between Ray and Mick. They are tied with Jax and Stein for my favorite paring of Legends. Both pairings play off each other really well. Sara... I get wanting to avenge your sister, but you are the captain of a time traveling team dedicated to protecting the universe from timeline aberrations. You know better and have seen how even little things affect the future. God only knows the trouble that could be caused by killing Darhk. We would get "Legendspoint." Loved Martin putting younger Martin straight about not taking Clarissa for granted.
  12. Me also! I may not be a Dr. but I have watched enough episodes of ER to know that is not sterile OR procedure.
  13. Just saw this and really enjoyed it. Thought it was a good introduction to the character and had it's own unique vibe. It had impressive imagery and even some creepy vibes at times(the astral projection while Christine was helping him when he was stabbed). I also thought they did good at making him likable and someone to root for when he could be an arrogant a-hole at times, even worse then Tony Stark. Tony was never as condescending or heartless as he was. During the argument with Christine after his accident he was totally unlikable. However in the end he was someone to root for. Did we get a Rhody shoutout with the calls about potential patients he was taking before his crash? It went fast, but I thought I heard one described as an ingured Air Force cornel and metal exoskeleton?
  14. That was hilarious! I was actually expecting the joke to end differently. I was thinking it was going to subvert expectations and actually have Janet have the real file.
  15. Of course Brockman would be a reporter who sensationalized stories to make himself a hero. I loved how the apology broadcast where he couldn't stop lying and the Simpsons reactions watching him. Loved the late night part with the skits made to go viral and the buzzfeed parody with the scarily faithful headlines.
  16. I liked this new twist to the season. I think it will stop the overall season from getting stale and maybe keep the season on track instead of going off the rails like AHS can tend to do. I really hope this isn't the end of Evan Peters this season. Maybe he will come back as a ghost and help his wife fake Shelby(forget her name) survive? If this is it for him, what a waste... even Zombie Kyle from season 3 got more screen time then he has this season. Love how crazy Kathy Bates' character is in real life, lol. Just wondering; Maybe I am tired and it was just me or did it seem to anyone else like the text they put up on screen flashed by fast. Like after the assistant gets killed in the car, they cut to commercial before I could finish reading what it was saying.
  17. Doesn't their connection mean they can't be in separate times? I remember last season Jax came down with some rapid aging sickness and it was a big deal they had to send him to 2016 to try and save him. That said, I love this crazy, ridiculous show. From the beginning in France, I was sucked back in. Of course Sarah would corrupt the women of Salem. Jax's "magic mirror" phone. Einstein trying to pick up women. Anything goes. Also love the interplay between the whole cast. You can tell they are more comfortable playing off each other.
  18. Um, Shelby... When there is paranormal stuff going down in and around your house and you find your husband in a trance having sex with a weird witchy woman in the middle of the night when he was just with you and a group that went into the woods without any prior knowledge you guys would be in the woods and thus had no ability to set up a rendezvous wth anyone, and says he doesn't remember anything; it's probably safe to believe him. I understand her being hurt and shocked but it obviously is the paranormal activity to blame! Does she seriously believe he just decided to wander off to pick up a strange woods woman in the middle of the night? It's not like he would have had time to contact any person he was having an affair with since there wasn't much time between "we are going into the woods" and actually going. And why would he willingly go off when there was his wife, sister and the psychic who would notice his going off and he would for sure be caught. It all just seems so contrived!
  19. Really? Didn't realize that... Thought they were bosses there...
  20. The best scene for me was Belle getting put straight by her son and telling Rumple off. I actually fist-pumped at that part. Here's hoping she sticks to her conviction. Did anyone else catch Zelena's quip about thinking it would take weeks to catch Hyde with a bunch of twists along the way? Total in joke about how formulaic the season arcs can get... Part of me feels certain Emma won't die. That would be show-ruiningly bad. How depressing to have the arguably main(even though she isn't treated like it) character go through so much just to die... That would be HIMYM finale levels of awful. Would definitely color reruns and make for some depressing new episodes if it wasn't the show finale. I think it's more likely that Emma dies but is Deus ex machinaed back to life somehow. That said, these writers did give us the Lost finale(never watched Lost but know the finales reputation) so that kinda scares me. What's the betting Emma dying would be used to prop up Regina somehow, either through Regina angst or some saviour "passing of the torch." Yuck.
  21. Found this walkthrough of the AHS haunted house at the 2016 Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando. Looks pretty creepy. Interesting that they don't seem to have included Asylum or Coven(unless I missed something). Here is the link. Has lots of strobes so beware if seizures are a problem.
  22. The most offensive commercial I have ever seen. I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own two eyes... 9/11 Mattress Sale Commercial And apparently they have been closed indefinitely.
