Do you watch the trailers for next weeks episodes?
Watching Auggie go through that was hard, though I knew it was inevitable & frankly, they had moved rather fast and didn't truly know each other all that well. It still felt like a stretch, though - her freak out seemed a little random. Annie & Simon is interesting and I agree, I wouldn't be surprised if he is some kind of double agent or deep cover, etc.) Also, did I miss something or did her sister's moving come out of nowhere? The last I heard, her husvabd was back in town wanting a divorce. And now she's moving? Let me guess, it was in the last 2 seconds of the previous episode? Our DVR keeps cutting off the ending of all USA shows - they let their shows play too long toward the end of the hour. Highly frustrating.
I saw something happening to Ellen from the 2nd episode - the instant she told Neal she would be relocating. It will be interesting if they go looking for Sara's sister. Why bring it up otherwise?
I saw the trailer for White Collar. Another erason Sara's sister may have come up was to point out that they do have things in common that the other characters can't quite relate to, and to emphasize the relationship still being deep even if they weren't together.
It may have been the last 2 seconds re: Danielle? She thought he was coming back to get a divorce and then told Annie that he came back because he wanted to get back together. I'm not really thrilled that she'd leaving.
The trailer for White Collar implied Ellen dies. Though it could be staged. I'm not sure how to feel about Danielle - something needed to happen. I was getting tired of her being mad every time Annie couldn't tell her something.
Continuum - I'm so glad I'm not the only one watching this. I've actually been surprised by the quality of the show from the beginning? Like it avoided some of the dumb writing pitfulls of genre(s). (The cops realized she wasn't who she said she was in the 2nd episode, the show is ACTUALLY SET IN CANADA instead of vaguely American, they spelled out the different theories of timelines and pointed out that killing Kellog's mom doesn't actually prove anything one way or another, etc.)
have no idea what to make of that last scene with Kellogg and Kiera
I was surprised, and I actually ship it. If anything was going to happen, I figured it for mid-season 2. (Assuming we get a second season.) I think the writers should have had her hang out with him at least once voluntarily for non-terrorist reasons (on her end). Drinking works, for the whole "only one I can talk about this shit to" reasons. But like, not at the beginning of the first drinking session.
Am completely in love with Rich Man Poor Woman. Totally enjoyable and loving the old feel to it. ♥♥ Ishihara/Oguri have loads of chemistry together which makes for an amazing couple. Love Aibu Saki's character despite the fact that everyone seems to HATE HER just because she's getting in between the OTP. I love how she's just going for everything and how she seems to like Chihiro as like a pet or something. lolol XD
I was REALLY taken aback by Covert Affairs already writing Parker off. I mean, I knew it would happen, but I didn't think it would happen the EPISODE AFTER. kind of a slap in the face. What was the point of writing her in? to angst Auggie up? Really? Kind of pointless. lol (Also kind of adoring Annie/Simon. I really hate that he's evil. Or at least currently evil.)
I checked out the tumblr tag for RMPW and ran away because of the hate for Saki's character. (People were saying that she was obviously lying about her relationship with Hyuga before. Uhm...what? It's possible it wasn't the way she described it, but there's obviously SOME truth to it given that he went to where she said they were supposed to meet and that the person he knew he was supposed to meet wasn't there-I'm thinking she showed up but he had forgotten her so she laughed it off to cover.) I think that the next episode is going to have him rejecting her and hopefully her letting go and moving on to someone else (but NOT the douchey guy she works with) and maybe pushing Chihiro and Hyuga together.
I expected Parker to be gone for a few episodes then come back and tell Auggie she co7uldn't do it. The way it played out feels more and more like cheap drama the more I think about it.
Agreed. At one point, I wondered if she was lying, but then he confirmed he'd GONE the year after, so that theory was out. I do think something is a little off about her story, but whatever it is, it can't be TOO dire. I REALLY don't want her to be with the douchey guy she works with. He is way too much of a chauvinistic ass to be good. >.> I would love if she ended up pairing the two of them together.
I'm somewhat hopeful that Annie and Simon's relationship might actually become something real?
That's interesting. I actually hope that it doesn't become real. That while she might get a little muddled up because of the inevitable 'wearing the mask too long makes you (almost) become the mask', in the end, she still manages to keep her loyalty and her head in the situation. Anything else would be proving Lena's fears right: while male agents are encouraged to sleep with assets for intels, female agents are not because women do get too emotional. And having Simon be "good all along" would just be a cop-out and an over-used cop-out for that matter. Ben Mercer has already filled the quota of "good-all-along" romantic interest.

I think the ending of the episode was relatively ambiguous as far as what happened with Keira and Kellog? We'll see.
