S02.E07: Maid Marian on Her Tip-Toed Feet

[Long Days Night]

Quote

Friends and foes converge on the Bumblers as they hide out at Jules' remote family cabin; Maddie, Sally and Max finally reunite for a perilous new con.

I think this is the first episode the entire season that I've flat-out enjoyed, from beginning to end. It's like the last 6 episodes were an incredibly long and complicated filler run just to get us to this point, when the story is actually about to start.

Yikes, seems like no one is watching, or they don't care to even comment!!!!

I liked this ep the best so far, but that’s not full on praise for a very boring season.  The story obviously is not good enough to keep me interested since my mind wanders and I find time to focus on things the (lazy) writers don’t think about.  My biggest peeve (this week) was the Doctor’s big shady shake down plan for his newest recruits.  “Get the ring back from the Toby jug collector!” Um, if that jug was going up for sale at an estate auction, here are a few real world facts the writers missed...1) typically the auctioneer/bank/note holder will clear the house of any antiques or pieces of value to keep themselves or sell at a better auction to get more money.  At the very least, if they suspect an item has value, they would have an appraisal done so it can fetch a better price. 2) even if no one thought it was worth any money, as soon as the auction person moved it, s/he would hear the ring clanging inside. Or a potential buyer would man handle and inspect it for chips, makers marks etc.  Once they peered inside or tipped it over, Ta-dah! ring falls out.  My grandmother collected Toby jugs.  Even the largest of them are not so cavernous that ahonking huge diamond ring would be missed.  There are no secret trap doors in them either. What makes the Doctor (or anyone with an ounce of sense) think the ring is still snuggled safe and sound inside the jug?  Even if He knows all that & is using this caper as a ruse, wouldn’t Maddie or Jules or Richard or Ezra ask the same question?

It's both, barely anyone is watching and there's not much to talk about.

All I know is that Ezra is super smug and I can't stand him... Sending the link to a video to Patrick... A few good cons and he's really smelling himself... And the fact that the show seems to gave Maddie feel like he's the one... When honestly she'd be better off with any other of the rest is annoying..  Ezra getting up at the end and helping make the plan in front of everyone   had me pulling out my hair

I like the show SO much last season but not so much this season!  I even forget that it's on now- a very bad sign!! 

May I ask do any of you watch The Arrangement?  It's very, very different but similar themes.  Good vs Evil, some really messed up "romantic" relationships (I'm thinking of Maddie truly liking Ezra here), a sick AF "Wizard of Oz" type character, and a bunch of good-looking young actors.  Last season was better for The Arrangement too but not such a huge leap as The Imposters made.

Totally. That whole idea was ridiculous.
