I was so worried about the fostering. I thought they would keep the little girl and that would completely change the show for me. So I've felt so relieved when that did not happen.

I am so tired of Lucy and her drama. But the rest of the episode was good. And Nolan was cleared of his Oscar case! Great, because I was so annoyed with the show suddenly showing Nolan, who was always portrayed as somebody very responsible and worried for his job, as someone who could forget his deposition. Especially when he knows how dangerous is the lawyer.

So, it was a good episode, but nothing to write home for.

For some reason, the writers of this show decided to make the villain of season 1 the same as season 2, completely reversing a redeeming arc...just to give him a new redeeming arc in the end. It was bad. The concept itself was bad. And then, everything became a mess, with everyone overpowered and super powerful weapons becoming ineffectual against them. When you have too many reality-shaping thing together, there is no way not to have pure chaos. And Peggy, a character I love, suddenly becoming able to comprehend and master pretty much everything is just too much. She is a human. With more strength and reflexes and whatever but she is a human. What happened in this episode makes no sense.

I've read other comments where people complain about the kids knowing the dangers and not falling into traps. To be honest, I do not understand the problem. I am more or less thinking the opposite. I did not read the books, but in the series it is explicitly said that Chiron, Sally and Grover (via games) taught Percy about Greek mythology. Also, Annabeth is clever, she is Athena's daughter. And Grover has a family who taught him things. So why would they be clueless? I am angrier when Percy does not know things, like when he seems clueless about Hades offering him pomegranate juice, or a couple of episodes ago when he did not understand why it was bad to see Atropos cutting a thread. Again. I did not read the books but in the show it makes sense that they have information.

I enjoyed the episode. I liked Fluffy (I mean, Cerberus) and I think the flashbacks were quite interesting.

We have the answers. I am so tired of the Liz's death arc. I liked all of that but Alina behaved quite irrationally and the story of the Caelum Bank heist was so similar to those happening in this same season...You can't only have a super safe bank. If you invented a new one every month, it makes no sense. Raymond was almost in bankrupcy a few years ago, but he had well provided accounts in several super secret banks and, apparently, he just forgot about them (or, as seen in a previous episode) about the villa he got for Liz, and his sweet caretaker. We have to believe Marvin has been paying to keep all those things, but it seems like a stretch of the imagination, even for this show. But I am happy to report the acting was very good in this one.

It was so great. The episode was excellent, terror filled, emotional (not only the parts about Donna and the Doctor being apart but also thinking in the plan of the original captain of the ship.) And the ending. I am so glad Wilf could record that. I loved him and I think his presence alone grants this episode all the 10/10. RIP Bernard Cribbins, you were always the best.

I do not have more to say but as IMDB insist I need to write some more, I will just say thank you Tennant and Tate for being so awesome. I will watch a lot more of three episodes with you but I will accept what I got and be thankful for them. It has been a pleasure.

All this conversation about Liz is dragging the show. Let the task force investigate things, have some fun please, stop with the drama. We got it, everybody loved Liz, they miss it. Now move on.

The conversation between Red and Harold was excellent...and by comparison, the scene in the cemetery was almost laughable. The acting was off. Also, I never liked Ressler but now I even understand what he is doing in the Force. It seems that he has no place in it anymore.

I am wondering if Reymond put something in the bunny, to spy Harold when he is with Agnes. Perhaps I am paranoid, but I would not be surprised.

This was a very entertaining chapter, with Lupin and Guedira working together. Guedira transformation was excellent and I loved his performance. I also liked the plan, but there is a plot hole. Assane could not know that the minion would be able to run with the money. Also, he did not want to gave them a forged bracelet but has no problems sending the police on them. They will suspect Assane, of course!

The bad guy has been identified (not a surprise) and the flashbacks confused me a little, because it seems like he had a real fight with the friend of episode 1. It is possible that they mended their relationship in between the flashbacks and present day.

Raoul and Claire are getting close to the truth, but I am worried something bad can happen to Raoul.

I want to know who is taking care of J'accuse now than Ben is in jail ;-)

The animation and Indian setting were very well done. I liked the train chase and the final fight. And the poignant ending was very good, I wanted to hug the poor boy. But the force-sensitive child was so annoying I could not enjoy the episode. I could not stand her. I just wish to have seen somebody taking care of the brother, at least offering him some shelter.

I loved the elder jedi and the inquisitor was quite intimidating, if pompous and funny looking. It was interesting. The animation studio did a really good show, now, if they could have created a lead I could like, it would have been awesome.

First, the show is over and it deserves a proper ending. A TV movie or a short miniseries would be enough.

The owls have been destroyed and Gotham is free and we could have something reuniting Turner and the Knights after a year or so, when they had been training (Turner in France, the other together)/ I am not a fan of the Two-Face make up, but it would be good to see the character develop as a foe of the Knights, not Batman. And Duela bringing his good side back, at least temporarily.

It is a shame to waste all the built on this show did. So please, Berlanti. Do something to give closure to this show. Also, thanks to everyone involved for giving us a show much better than expected.

This was a very good episode.

Lois dealing with the aftermath of her surgery was very well done. As was all the Cushings and Jonathan drama.

Lex introduction was superb, making him terrifying and a real threat. And the ending was creepy.

Also, classic tornado for Superman.

And...Jordan. I hate what Jordan is doing but I do not think his parents are handling him well. It is obvious the kid is depressed and he has dealt with anxiety and other things before. They should be more understanding and helping him to realize keeping the secret is better. I really hope the kid grows a little before next season.

This one I did not like. It was disturbing and the concept was good and interesting in theory. In practice, the episode was only interesting at the beginning. Since the hippies attack, it was almost all predictable but I did not thought Josh Harnett would kill anyone, at least not at first. . I had 2 theories about the ending. That Aaron Paul character would kill the other one out of jealousy and then accept that he would be at risk of dying himself alone (or perhaps be replaced, we never knew how far away they are in the station). The other theory was that Harnett would kill Paul and take his body. That is what gave me more options for the true ending, like Kate Mare realized who he was and she denounced the thing to the authorities, or Harnett realized he has been discovered and kill her, or other options.

I still do not know why the story took place in the past, instead of the future. Whatever the case, it was too long and boring for moments. I think Aaron Paul did an excellent job and the rest of the cast were quite good too. But the writing is not too good.

This is the first chapter I do not really like. The plan for rescuing Turner was stupid. The villains allowing them to leave were stupid too but I guess the in-universe explanation would be that they want Turner to join them. And he probably would not be happy if they killed his friends.

The main problem is Turner apparently believing them. Everyone knows that Batman does not kill. So even if Turner could be convinced that Batman was involved in the death of his parents, he should think it was an accident, or self-defence. Turner parents could have been villains.

I do not know, Turner seems too gullible here.

Ok, this was very interesting.

I have two main problems with the episode and some things I really liked.

Problems. What is the reason about stealing the map? Are the knights going to grab the electrum themselves? Or the show is implying that if the map is stolen the owls would not be able to find the electrum, as if they did not take pictures of the map or anything.

And the chancellor revelation. The man is allegedly super hurt and unable to move well, but he could host the party so well?

Minor problem I forgot about: why are they taking off the masks where there is danger, and why is Robin using Turner name around the minions? I know they finally caught him so that is a moot point, but what if he had ran away?

Things I really like: Turner risking everything for saving Cressida. A true Batman thing. Duela speech about rich people. Stephanie subplot. And, of course, Harvey. Misha is doing a great job.

I am intrigued about why the Talon hurt and almost killed the chancellor.

Superman is back, and now he knows who Peia is. I liked the episode because in general all reactions were legit and believable. Lois and Clark feel empathy for a fellow cancer patients with a loving husband, Jordan feels he is doing the right thing and he oversteps, Jonathan feels left out and that his brother is messing with his chances to be an everyday hero, Crissy is disappointed Lois is blocking her work, Lana feels alone, Sam feels alone, Sarah reacts like a teenager and then feels guilty, Nat feels his dad is unfair with Matteo, Matteo is shocked by his parents behavior, and John Henry wants justice (or perhaps revenge).

So, all that was on point. There are some minor critics, like why is Jonathan so intense with being a firefighter now or how much time did Sam and Lana spend together while the other had a dinner, a conversation with a sister from another world, a fight and the beginning of the treatment for Peia.

Oh, are they going to save Luthor? That is intriguing.

I liked this episode.

1) The emotional conversations between the families, all of them, were nice. Vic overeating was a little weird, but I imagine if your daughter is the only person from your own world that you have with you, you would become overprotective. Besides that, I did not hate the Sarah/Lana/Crissy thing, And the Kents acting was wonderful. I think new Jonathan is a very talented actor.

2) I was glad to see that Lois instincts were right about Peia, even I am still outraged that one of the best reporters in the world, who spent years investigating Manheim, did not know about his wife and son.

3) I was not surprised by Matteo being Manheim son, I suspected that much. But I was happy to see that it was not all a trap for Superman. That the kid really cares for Nat.

4) I wonder if they will find a cure for Peia.

Ok, I gave this a 9 because it has some amazing acting and writing about the challenge that a cancer diagnose means for the patient and his family. I think it was really well done and realistic, even when some characters here are aliens. I think the story of the Cushings was very well written too but I have a few problems with the internal logic of the story. And also, on a personal level, I do not care for the Cushings. Sarah is an entitled, annoying girl And the only reason I managed to find an ounce on interest in Cushing is that I like Crissy. But let's go to the minor points I commented. I do not like that her parents use Sarah as a baby sitter. I mean, for short periods it is ok, but Lana left for work and left the two children alone. Then next day her ex does the same thing for a shorter period of time and she gets mad. Sarah is a child herself, she needs to do her homework and have a life, yes, flirting included. Lana is the mayor, I would imagine she can afford a baby sitter. Sarah apologized and feel guilty and that is fair, because she really should have taken a better care of her sister but she should not have been in the position of being in that position to begin with.

Another problem with the writing is that even when it was clear that Superman was overprotecting Jordan, in the end he was right. Jordan was hit with kryptonite and could have died. None of them knew how that would affect him. So the final scene between Lois and Clark was a little weird, because they perfectly discuss Superman fears but never admit that Jordan could have died when trying to save him.

Last thing, even with the emotional parts were good, I rather spend time with Natalie and Steel than with the Cushings,,
