Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Aww, dang. (I suspect the parenthetical about the split is there because people would notice if she wasn't there on official opening night.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've been wanting to say this somewhere, and this seems like my best shot: I saw Lobby Hero in New York in 2001, and at the time I thought that Jeff was supposed to be played by Mark Ruffalo, but that's when he had the brain tumor, so was off the scene for a while. (Google tells me Variety said at the time, "Jeff is a lovable Lonergan type we've come to associate with the actor Mark Ruffalo.")

In short, everything is connected.

SHIELD: I am seeing so many Buffy/Angel "borrows" this season. Phil's fear was totally Buffy Normal Again. Deke is another grown baby like Jasmine (though not a god [THAT WE KNOW OF!!!]). I'm a little bored this season.

JJ2: Thoroughly enjoyed it, but not as good as S1. Krysten Ritter is so damned good that I've stopped wishing Eliza Dushku had been cast in the role. I feel like she and Carrie Anne Moss deserve Emmy noms for their work this season. Damn.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Deke is another grown baby like Jasmine

More like Connor, no? Raised in a hell dimension and all.

Deke amusing himself with knowing FitzSimmons are his grandparents and Fiktz going "You're so weird" is fun.

Yes! Like Connor! But I liked Connor and so far, Deke is doing nothing for me.

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

Captain Marvel finally begins shooting.

A couple of interesting names showed up in the cast list, including Lee Pace and Djimon Hounsou, whose characters were killed off in Guardians of the Galaxy. But since Captain Marvel takes place in the 1990s, this shouldn't be a big deal.

Also in the cast list is Clark Gregg, whose beloved character Agent Phil Coulson was killed off in The Avengers, and never seen since.

Please don't let it just be a flashback.

I just realized what longer-hair scruffy Bucky in the posters reminds me of.

Highlander.

There can be only one, motherfucker.
