I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Was there any reason FOR Henry to bring Bev along?

Yeah, actually my husband asked what Henry's whole plan was, and I couldn't really answer that.

So, in the end, Jo and Zoe wanna get back to partying? The hell? In the end, Allison and Stark let Henry take the full brunt of the responsibility (as in, ALL the responsibility)?! The hell?

You know, the season began with the tie-in the finale with "You just have to have a little faith", and then they bring in this Akashic theory, this theory of everything, this meta-science that incorporates all, science, theology. And this is how they utilize it? It would have seemed almost more appropriate to end the season with that big-bang episode (where, unfortunately, we first meet Zane, but still, there was promise in the premise).

And, oh, Taggart, how they use and abuse you. But you got a funny in that was truly funny.

I appreciate that Zane's fate with Jo is not safe, as seen by her interaction (finally!) with "Tag" and with that brilliant hug and smile with Fargo. I'm somewhat (belatedly) comforted that the writers realize that Zane may be next year's compost.

All in all, I've enjoyed all the Carter/Stark interactions. They have the best damned chemistry out of all the characters (with or without slash, ymmv, both work). I just feel bad that Stark's character had to undergo the ambiguous evil shoe-horning. I'll have to rewatch to see if 20/20 hindsight makes it gel.

I'm sad. Sad that I was a proponent for darker, and that I got darker, but at the loss of the quirk. I'm also sad that I'm relieved that this season is over. I'll try to be optimistic for next season...

other than as a dramatic (and false) way to make Henry look evil and assassinate his character even further? Of course, so she could then be free to zap herself in that thingy dingy!

machall, you can find more Heroes talk in the Heroes thread.

Thanks. I didn't notice they'd opened up a separate one.

Art Crawl!!!

Wonder how well this is selling. . .

Last night's Eureka: loved the zombie comment. I also loved the folks gathered in the morgue eating snacks. (Which all tied in with the zombie comment.)

I hope Swoozie and Helen aren't just in the pilot. They haven't done much, but I LOVE them. Straight out of Roald Dahl (but the eccentric adults, not the evil ones).

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Also enjoying PD immensely. There have been a few laugh out loud moments (the bit about the Chow's rep. being 'racial profiling,' for example), but more importantly, it has me grinning and genuinely happy.
