[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

Thanks guys! I appreciate you watching (or trying to) the show.
And yes! Cliffhanger! It was one of my favorite things about the episode. It is, as they say, a game changer.

How cool that you got to change the game!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I really liked the framing of the cliffhanger. You kinda thought that was what was happening, but the event itself was so suspenseful that it just felt, well, wrought, you know? And I liked how casual Nikita was in her phone conversation. It kinda heightened the intensity of it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Excellent job, Kristen! Interesting and complex task, to write a dream episode, and I loved the punch at the end.

Missed the ep, because I am apparently not just behind in things I have to do, but also in things I want to do. I look forward to finding it in a legal place on these funny tubes of ours, and to watching it. Cool beans, Kristen!

Thanks again everyone!

The entire time we were breaking it, I was worried that it was going to 43 minutes of people stacking matches.
In Minear news, I see that he will be a-twitter tonight after The Chicago Code.

You definitely had a hard job laid out for you, Kristen, and I think you did it really well.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I think you did it really well.
Coming in late on this, but I think you did too.
Also, how come no one told me Julie Cooper was on Nikita?

I like the shades of gray added to Gibbons this week. Assuming that narration is truth—to the narrator, at the very least—I think Gibbons really does believe he's helping the city, even if his means are a bit on the, er, illegal side. Of course, when he's not narrating, I'm still not sure how sincere he ever is about anything. So that's fun.
