Person of Interest: Well, that was apocalyptic.
Did anyone see what happened to Fusco?
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Jeez, seriously. The one thing I liked is that it didn't go for the obvious move of Sherlock shooting up heroin to get Joan to stay (which is what I expected).

On the other hand, the "tell" was about events, the "show" was about character. So I did not hate that aspect. What did not work for me is what has not worked for any Buffista: Mycroft. He was miscast. To play the Mycroft they were going for, they needed an actor with more charisma or at least sex appeal. No way I can believe Joan finds him attractive. Also, they have done very little to show him Holmes' equal in deductive ability and manipulation, let alone his superior as in the Doyle canon. Mycroft is badly written as well as badly cast.

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.
Mycroft is very tall. Put a not particularly handsome mug on great long stilts of legs and for some reason, to some people, it really works. I went to my high school homecoming dance with a guy who was a foot taller than I. We wrote Dr. Who fanfic together before Dr. Who was cool, I'd have gone with him anyway. But he had much more interest from other girls than can be accounted for by his looks or their nerdiness alone.

Hmm - this actor seems to have the opposite of charisma. He seems to radiate "you would never want to have sex with me". Maybe that is just me. Don't really appreciate men as sex objects much. But I can usually see the appeal of men the Buffistas kvell over. But I see no appeal in this guy. (To be fair, there has been no kvelling.) Again, though he is not well written. He does not give the impression of being contained or still or lazy or anything. Nor does he give the impression of great intelligence. The former may be on the actor, But the latter is totally the fault of the writers.
