Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think that they're going to have hitches in most of their cons from here on in. Nothing concrete, but I get the impression they're veering away from any apparent omnipotence, although I'm sure they'll always win in the end.

I think it took a while for the chemistry to re-gel, but I feel it in full force now. I really like the inter-character moments, especially when Hardison or Parker is interacting with anyone. I'm curious to see where Sophie's concern with Nate goes, especially since Gina's so huge they have to be writing her out soon.

Why does Nate feel off? (He does to me, too.) Is it a fundamental difference in the character, or is he now just sober!Nate?

For me, a lot of it is the physicality. It's almost as though he moves like someone older. He used to stand up straighter, not move his arms as much. He had better hair last season, too :)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Last year, Nate was the straight man. This year, they seem to be going for broad comedy for some reason.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So he is a lot broader this year? I can't remember what his "acting" was like in the first season, even though I only watched it a couple months ago.

The only way I can describe it is that it seems muffled. Like, last year the look was visually crisper, and the dialogue was sharper.

And the hair, my god, the hair.

That goes for Nate, Eliot, and Sophie.

Well, that's certainly a big improvement on the rest of my day.

I like Eliot's hair.

But then, I've always had a thing for guys with long hair.

I don't know whether Eliot's hair got better or it just grew on me (no pun intended)
