Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yes, I am completely willing to blame the show.

If it ain't broke, don't fix. Let's just leave it, and if someone posts in Boxed Set, direct them here.

I agree with this, and at the same time, I don't see a problem with talking about the sci-fi elements of the show here, if people want to discuss them. I thought the Root parts of this week's episode were particularly interesting, and also kick ass.

Ok. I am extremely intrigued by what The Machine is doing with Root. I also wonder if The Machine read a lot of Asimov, and has willingly absorbed the Three Laws of Robotics (or if some analogous subroutine is an inherent part of how Harold designed the program).

All is well that ends in pizza.

The machine created a false identity that was male. So who knows if there is a particular gender to which the machine would like to be referred?

I was wondering if the writers had read The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

What a fantastic episode of Elementary that was! Great character stuff, fun case, sparkling dialog -- one of the best the show has done. And that letter at the end, oh my.

I expected Beckett to make a decision on where she wanted to be.

She kind of did. She didn't know she was making that choice but tipping off the press was more of a detective move than FBI, yeah?

I had been wondering why Castle didn't get a place in DC since she got the job, myself, so that was nice that he figured that out.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Yeah, other than the book tour why the heck wasn't Castle in DC?

I was glad that he fucked things up for her in DC because it showed that there were more issues than the geographic which, as noted, should have been a non- issue from the start.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I suspect we're going to get at least some of the post-proposal/pre-DC story in upcoming episodes.
