We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

And Talbot trying to take orders from Phil!

That's going to be AWESOME.

I miss the man in the sharp suits, but damn, Phil is sexy in black leather.

He's seriously attractive. Dang.

I love that the show has managed to keep Brett Dalton around, because he's going to be fantastic as the Big Inhuman Evil or whatever he is now.

I feel bad for the fangirls who were *sure* Ward could be saved.

And apparently the season will end in space--and Elena will be involved.

That's what I was thinking, when we went from the floating cross necklace in the space capsule in the flash-forward, to a shot where we could see it really clearly around her neck in the present day.

Unless it ends with Mack somehow and we can all be very annoyed at something bad happening to Mack.

I saw something about how "the Ward you knew and loved is gone"; my mind still boggles at that kind of thing.

Ward is like Angel: he's SO much more interesting to watch when he's evil. And oddly hotter.

I had all my kittens on Mack being gay, but he seems interested in Lady Flash. Though maybe we can still get bisexual Mack.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

At least they waited until Joey was part of the team before hinting at that. Juan Pablo Raba is a pretty good consolation prize.

Ward is much more interesting as a villain, but he's still never engaged my sympathies as a viewer. Back in season 4 of Angel when they added the "us" in promos I did a fist pump and hoped it was a permanent title change.

Ward had a look of not-quite-human and distinctly feral. And I think the actor has lost weight (which would work for the plot) - I could swear I saw ribs last night (and not on the table).

Those were either makeup or CGI—the actual contours of his torso were not sucked in as they would be if his ribs were actually showing, and he did not have the belly of an emaciated man.

huh ... well, it worked for the character, however achieved

In other news - in re Agent Carter, there was discussion of The Purple Dress. I did some googling and there WERE two purple dresses. This was the one she was wearing in the desert; Another view. It may be a coat over a dark dress. This is the one she was wearing at the end - lighter over something white.
