Re: Rite of Passage. I Can see them keeping it for the actors(?), but don't think it needs to be aired. It probably does affect them but it did nothing for me. A little reminiscing of some of the ones that were voted out earlier on.
Glad Fabio won, some of the voting did surprise me though. And that Marty hated Chase so much, glad he stuck with his friendship with Fabio as did Benry.
Why is he out of line? It's his opinion. He's a grown man, let his mom give him crap for his language.
I'd be annoyed too, and if the actor had an issue about the script he should've brought it up earlier. Not like they had an entire episode around him, then said "scratch that, 2 lines for you."
Thinking about it for a few minutes, I came up with a simple strategy for Jane. She obviously saw Chase having issues with voting her off that night, so talk to him in private and plead about how Sash wormed his way in, and that he was talking badly about Chase, and how he backstabbed his BFF on the island, Brenda, then explain it's best for Fabio/Dan to vote Sash and stop that alliance before it's those 3 vs. Fabio & Dan.
But, that's why I'm a viewer and not a player. I can't imagine living off rice for that long without eating normally.
I'll be glad when this episode is over, if nothing else then the fact that come this spring there will probably be a new season hopefully with a cast that's more strategic late in the show, then get booted off in the first half (Marty, Brenda, JJ).
I wonder if Jimmy T will show up for the finale, just to hear him rant about how nobody listens to him and he has ideas!
Watched it, but I didn't enjoy it. I don't care if I am a true fan, a real fan, or what. I just did not enjoy this episode very much. Wasn't bad, just too over the top for me.
I liked this episode, granted I'm not very critical of Smallville at all this season, as I think this is one the best seasons it has had.
There wasn't a lot they could have done with Slade anymore, not if they're going to have the other 3 as the "boss baddies" (Godfrey, Granny, ?) so it was smart that they ended his current story for now, and I liked his episode.
Would've made more sense to mention if that sword was made out of kryptonite though, just in case Clark showed up not Hawkman. I can imagine him "Oh no, a flimsy sword." /touch you with my emblem crystal.
When Hawkman mentioned to Clark that he had been there when the darkness was previously I thought it hinted that he had been there to help guide a leader, or someone else rather then become the take charge kinda guy, or that he would sacrifice himself then for someone else as well.
I can't imagine giving Dan my vote though, he hasn't done anything this game. Simply moved from alliance to a different one when Marty was voted off. He didn't do any strategizing, like how last season's winner did a little bit at least.
Though he was hilarious when he called Sash out, and Sash couldn't get a word out.
Surprised Benry's gone. Wish the guys had stuck together, Fabio must realize he's on the outs now since even Dan didn't vote with him against Holly.
I don't think Finn & Rachel need to be together for a good story. Maybe because they haven't had much plot tv time lately, from what I remember of the past episodes it's been all about Kurt. Them breaking up was thrown at as like Sectionals was!
I thought the same thing with his "Wouldn't want to miss how it all turns out" with his classic sneer/grin look.
There's a few storylines he can join with a snap too, either on Darkseid's evil alliance or he can nurture Lex/Alexander until he's ready for a showdown with Clark.
- I've never read the comics but I think someone commenting will bring up Ultraman. Loved Oliver's line about the name though, "what were you thinking? Did it look good on paper?"
wow it really is. That's what I imagine past president Regan looks like.
Awesome episode, my wife has a friend that texts like that and since she has an old school cell phone, it takes minutes to type a single text. This friend does not get that we hate to text back, ARGH.
Wow I didn't realize this show was this close to canceling, that would be such a shame with how great it is.
Not much to say about the episode itself, just a good finale to a long storyline. Neat how they wrapped most of the plot twists up and put it on the feet of one person.
- Wonder why the lawyer gave up his boss rather then die, maybe he was quite a wimp without his brawn around.
Kurt needs to stay off the show for a few weeks, if nothing else then to actually come across as him NOT part of the New Directions. If he comes back next week, then there was simply no reason for any of this storyline.
I don't think Rachel & Puck will get together, I imagine she'll just whine for Finn.
I'm not going to complain about the storyline, then want Sue Sylvester. She hasn't had much of a proper plot since last season, so I don't mind not having her in 1 episode. I don't think she'd have contributed to these anyway, so leave her out of it.
Emma/Carl is still meh, all right I understand you don't like Will but you continue to help him, spend time with him, and then confess to your boyfriend and marry him? If she was in love with Carl so much, either explain it to us viewers one way or another or don't take such a drastic step. Marriage isn't a silly plot device, and I don't think it should be used like one. Neither should sex, glad it didn't get that far for Puck & Rachel, but that was weird on it's own. Especially since Puck is the one that stopped it, in the flashback, she seemed ready for it. Hopefully she'll realize that she isn't a nice person and decides to do something about it that we see.
Wow, remember it's only season 3. Many drama shows with the crime/cop aspect easily last 6+ seasons, L&O twice that. There's plenty of time for them to 'date' or like SVU just stay partners.
Maybe I'm alone here, but I'm hoping that now that Kurt is at another school he won't be in the show so much. I don't think I should have to defend my thoughts on this, but I'll write it down that I just don't care for his personality or actions.
He had no problem talking to the principal about being bullied, but why not mention that he forced a kiss? At least the bully will have to actually deal with his feelings then and probably would have been expelled you would think.
Meh, C+ episode. I didn't care for all the jumbled plotlines in the A storyline, and the B story was boring and lead nowhere, other then Sue has mommy issues and got over them her own way.
You don't need to follow the comic to enjoy a great show. I watch Smallville without ever reading a Superman comic book.
Talk about unpredictable! I don't think anyone would've expected the zombie attack at the end, or the younger blonde getting killed. It really brings an element of random to the show that hadn't been seen as much so far.
Something else worth mentioning about Merle's haggard look is that he's a drug user. I'm assuming coke or something harsh, that's going to make anyone look sleezy, not like he was on camera much before he was left there to make an unbiased opinion other then he was a racist d-bag.
I wondered if Quinn takes Lindey out himself, maybe he's keeping an eye on Deb (Quinn) and notices Lindey trying to approach her with some evidence of Dexter being a guilty person, kills Lindey and destroys the evidence.
I'm a bit surprised that Dex hasn't noticed he's being tailed though, I guess the guy is more after Lumen though then Dexter himself.
I think it makes sense for him to explain himself to Astor why Lumen's in the house, but he handled it best by saying "she's had some very tough things to deal with..." and that she understood why he was.
About Deb though, I don't think she'll find out this season that Dexter is a murderer. She might think that someone is, but not Dex. Or soon after she has the idea, some "new evidence" or something gets placed at a crime scene to throw her off the trail, he wouldn't or shouldn't let a police officer get that close to his Dark Passenger.
I can't believe there's only 3 more episodes left for this season! It went so quickly.
I really thought Chuck had escaped from his lair and told Ellie the truth! It sounds like with her new laptop she'll get the truth out of him with that at least.
Awesome and hilarious episode, and it was neat seeing Zachary Levi (Chuck) on Conan the same night.
I'll admit it, I agree with the reviewer about the VRA.
But! I like it, I think they're doing something different with it then X-Men did. Or it's been so many years since I seen the movies I forget what happens.
I don't really care for AC's storyline, so I'm very glad it's only for one episode. Although! His wife is HOT. When she stripped in front of Lois, one of the first times I wish this show was on HBO.
Oliver had another big part in this storyline, happy for that since the guy has so much charisma.
Also, I didn't mention it on last week's review & I forgot if it was noted, but his wife played the girl with kryptonite forged claws.
