I honestly believe Fitz felt so betrayed by Radcliff he was straight up intending to murder him.

Nah there was definitely a moment of realization where he at least strongly suspected him of being a robit

Either is possible, and the show is pretty good with not being ambiguous with this stuff so i'm sure we'll get "I cannot believe you tried to murder him!" or "How did you know he was an LMD?" this week.

Yeah, it was the wording the Radcliffe LMD used when talking about how he couldn't hurt anyone.

Abed was a HYDRA agent, he's probably either in jail or dead.

The dog was clearly barking out All Along the Watchtower, definitely a robot.

He brings to mind the first law of robotics "A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.", which is why Fitz suddenly feels so sure.

Looks like Haley Atwell's new show isn't getting renewed. ABC gave Conviction 13 episodes and that seems to be it.
Sad. It wasn't a bad show for a procedural. The cast was full of complex and well rounded characters. I'm on my phone or I'd link the article I read.

I wasn't impressed by the pilot but I liked her character a lot. Hopefully we'll get some sort of Agent Carter now that she's freed up again.

Make it animated. That's how they are bringing Constantine back. I'd watch it.

With all the original programming its getting, I doubt Netflix would pick it up. But crazier things have happened. CougarTown, The Mindy Project, and Community all found different homes with wildly different success rates elsewhere.

I think Talbot is the other LMD. He wanted to move all the assets to another location. This would presumably include the Darkhold which he can then turn over to his boss.

There's some distribution hurdle that is keeping Netflix from picking up an Agent Carter series. I believe what happened was that there are already deals in place for overseas and that made Netflix uninterested because they want those rights.

That's a great preview. The Koenigs are all great. It looks like the writers are trying to find the new set of fans to troll after the Ward thing.

He's been working pretty consistently. Standup and writing mostly, but work is pretty much the only thing that's kept him going.

He probably is only taking on roles that he's passionate about.

With the announcement of Capaldi leaving Doctor Who after this season, I instantly though of John Hannah as the Doctor.

Hannah is too much Capaldi. They might actually do a turn with a lady doctor this time around. Elisabeth Henstridge?
