You know, I just don't care about SCC anymore. I suppose that I want to know what happens, but I don't really care how they get there.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

I really liked tonight's Chuck, but I hope they don't milk this "loss of innocence" thing with him seeing Sarah kill Michael Rooker tonight for too long. The Intersect knowledge he's flashed on so far should at least have given him some clue as to what kind of stakes everyone is playing for.

“Not dead yet!”
I don't know, Frank. Part of me didn't take it so much as upset at her killing the guy (although I'm not quite sure how much he could hear, so he may be a little more clueless than us) but more that she didn't trust him enough to tell him what she'd done.
Or at least, some combo of both.
And now no Chuck until the Super Bowl. *sobs*

That's a shame. I think it might be the best show I'm watching right now.

Me too, Dana. Even when it's not perfect, it's just so damned SMART I don't care.
Vee was complaining on LJ about how the women died in this one, but it really didn't bother me because usually in this show it's the men who die. Every episode I worry this will be the one where Ellison gets it; happily I've been wrong so far.
I thought Alan Park was very interesting. I'm not clear on why John didn't call 911 right away when he found Riley, though. And they do know first aid--what was up with just holding her on the floor?
And where was Derek this week, anyway? Not with Jesse, not with John, not with Sarah. Helllooo.
ION, I saw the trailer for Salvation, in which there are mostly men, and one babealicious woman who looks pregnant in one scene. I suspect the feminist sensibility of SCC is not going to carry over into the movie, more's the pity.

Should I be worried about the trend of short life expectancy for African-American health care professionals on this show?

Oh, because of the hypnotherapist?
I think it's interesting that we never saw who it was that was after Parker.
Suppose THAT was Derek wouldn't that be confusing.

It didn't bother me either. We had five women who featured in last night's storyline. Six if you count Shirley Manson. Seven if you count Cameron. That's pretty extraordinary.

Huh. I thought it might be Cameron, but I admit I didn't pay attention to how far away Sarah was from home.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
SCC is a show I'd love to catch up on on DVD when it's over, but I just don't have the time or stamina to keep up with live. HIMYM (in the same time slot) is easier on my brain.
