Thanks for the new thread! Can't wait to see America Ferrara ( Natalie ) back again! I've been wanting her to return since season 2.

America Ferrara's scenes may give a nice few breaks from the civil war so I welcome her. Although she and Eli are really strange together.

that character would have been so much more interesting without the contrived "romance". Eli and his ex-wife worked perfectly! This didn't at all.

I don't have much to say about the episode (Robyn kicks ass!), but did the writers suddenly forget about a South Korean conglomerate called LG when they "rebranded" L&G? You know LG, televisions, phones, even biochemistry.

Instead of "Robyn trying to be more like Kalinda", could we just get Kalinda being more like Kalinda? Or is it really too much to ask at this point and we should just move on?

that's been discussed in season 2 when they dropped Stern I believe.

Nothing special about this episode. Robyn was probably the highlight of it, love her


Am I seeing some AW and Eli/Natalie parallel? What Eli said about having dinner now or never sounded a LOT like AW in Season 1, maybe this is going somewhere...

I may be biased as an AW shipper, but I completely thought the same exact thing.

- Loved Howard Lyman! He was hilarious!

- Eli and Natalie were sweet! Is she in more episodes?

- Loved the group high five after they got their first new client

I imagine they were quite limited in this episode with Josh directing and Christine doing Into The Woods. I don't think it really moved the plot forward much, but it was still a good episode; not the best, but ok.

Still a great one and I'm loving this season!!

Oh that explains the lack of Diane! I can't complain, she had some great episodes this season so far.

Also guys, I was thinking about this for a while and I would love to know your thoughts. Do you think this back and forth between the firms is
going to get old after a while? Especially if they are not connected?
