Josh Lyman posted:When it premiered, I watched the first couple episodes of Nikita but stopped after a little while. Since then, I've been catching up by watching the last 2 episodes of season 1, then the first two and last two episodes of season 2, and I plan to watch all of season 3 (unless you guys think it's a waste of time). I'd say you are safe to stop at the end of season 2. Wraps up everything nicely except for one plot point. Season 3 starts off slow with a bunch MotW type episodes and honestly the overarching plot isn't as good.

Speaking of The Mentalist, did it get renewed for 13 or 22 episodes this season? Because the Red John plot is moving at full speed. Feels like it'll be over in 13 episodes.

I still would've been fine if the series ended after the season 4? finale where Jane kills that guy he thinks is Red John in the middle of the shopping mall. Then asks for his check from the waitress. Another thing I noticed is that he still has the gun that HRG gave to him to help him get his revenge.

Deadpool posted:The last Red John episode of the series is next week. And he is just one person as revealed in tonight's episode. It's already on Twitter because it already aired in Canada. After next week there's a big time jump of a few years I believe. To me the biggest surprise was that they killed off 3 Red John suspects in the bomb blast and just gave it a casual mention.

Deadpool posted:I'm watching it right now, and even though it was spoiled on Twitter for me earlier I feel like it's landing a little soft. I'm thinking this might be one last red herring. At least I'm hoping so. I have no problem with who it is, but the reveal came off soft. Well they never confirmed he was Red John. Jane is just assuming he is. So yea, I am expecting one last twist as well.

Kind of expected there to be the final twist on the Red John identity, but I was a little disappointed that it was Sheriff Thomas McAllister. But I guess it was like they said in the show, no one really could have lived up to our expectations. I did like that Jane killed him and didn't get talked out of it. That would've been really disappointing. The death scene was fantastic, especially how the camera stayed on Jane(who acted the poo poo out of it) the whole time as he is choking the life out of Red John.

Now I'm curious to what they do with the rest of the season to still keep it interesting. There are still 14? episodes left. Also (more Red John chat)apparently Sheriff McAllister was in the 2nd episode of the show? I mean Bruno Heller says he didn't decide who Red John was until a few years later, but that is an interesting tidbit that one of the first people Jane meets in the show is Red John. edit: Also I guess the guy who patted down Jane missed the pigeon in his pocket. Worst thug ever. CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK fucked around with this message at 06:53 on Nov 25, 2013 |

IRQ posted:Remember how a lot of people were saying that it sounded like a great premise for a movie but that as a tv show it would just get dragged out with stupid crisis-of-the-week bullshit that would undermine the main idea and ultimately go nowhere? Clearly you are forgetting about Sealy McFeely and his romance plot on the island. And the other romance plot with the XO.

Trast posted:Even as a kid I enjoyed Sisko thinking the rest of the crew was nuts for wanting him to play along with a 50's stereotype because there was no way in hell he'd have been allowed in that casino unless it was to mop floors. Wasn't it the penultimate episode where they had another stupid loving hologram episode? Sisko should've put his foot down and deleted the goddamn thing while telling those fucks to get back to work.

Irish Joe posted:CBS has this marketing thing where it produces comic book-y previews of new episodes of its shows. While it kinda works for pulpy shows like Person of Interest, it works significantly less well for sitcoms. You can't remove timing and inflection from jokes and still expect them to land. Example below of an exchange that's hilarious on television, but cringe-inducing on paper. That exchange isn't funny in any medium.

Even if it's just having a guy who's not afraid to say "Mr. Moore making Starbuck an angel sounds like a pretty dumb idea." Didn't Moore originally plan to have God show up at the end of season 1 played by the original Star Buck? Thank you to whoever shut down that terrible idea.

Sober posted:From what I watched of Camelot (like 7 or 8 episodes?) I did not even see 7 million dollar budget. Was it all location shoots and Eva Green's paycheque or something? It was all location shooting in Ireland or Scotland I think. Also instead of using old castles like GoT, they built their own so that must've eaten up a lot of money.

He swung from bad guy to good guy to bad guy and just constantly back and forth. What about the amazing Larter sisters? A new one every season! Also Mohinder turning into a giant fly was pretty loving funny.
