Great to have you aboard Paula. I haven't seen it in a while so it'll be like I'm watching it for the first time as well.

Since we're all in different time zones and have different schedules, it's definitely easier to watch on your own. But anyone is welcome to watch the episodes together if they're able. And thanks for the info Ingrid, we'll have to contact them in a few weeks.

^ I'm still trying to figure my time zone exactly since daylight savings has changed it.

rossfangirl86

Your time zone doesn't change even if the time changes. At least that's how it is here in the US. I'm on EST.

Just a reminder that this starts up in a few days! I'll advertize it again on the info and mod boards this weekend.

^ My time zone changes slights because Queensland doesn't do daylight savings, where as NSW and Victoria do. Welcome back

Oh okay, I gotcha. You must live on the borderline?

And thanks.

ETA: I didn't realize that the pilot is actually considered two episodes...are you all okay with watching 3 this week and then going down to 2 afterward?

I also put a notice about it on Twitter and Tumblr page

Not sure, Qld just don't do it for some reason despite pretty much everyone wanting it lol. That's fine with me.

Very clever way to introduce Neal and Peter. I like their past connection and that Peter knew exactly where Neal was going. I laughed when Neal asked him if that was the same suit he wore the last time he got arrested. "It's a classic, it never goes out of style."

I never really got why Neal tried to run after Kate once she left him. But it was an interesting reason for Neal to escape from jail so close to the end of his time there. I know her leaving is the big mystery of this season but eh.

Neal just seems to slip into things, like getting all those nice clothes and beautiful apartment for next to nothing. Peter was right that it was these, "get something for nothing" schemes are what got him into trouble the first time around. But it was so funny when Peter told Neal he looked like a cartoon and if he was trying to be part of the rat pack.

Of course I liked seeing Neal/Peter play off each other this whole episode. They're total opposites but I think they have a grudging respect for each other. I'm not sure that Neal really wants to change yet but it's a beginning.

I liked all the scenes with Peter and his wife. They have such a cute/sweet relationship and they have nice chemistry. It really does feel like they've been married for 10 years. I thought it was sweet how Peter got her tickets to Belize, like he's been promising for years. I like that Neal was able to get him to see how important it is to keep your promises. They're already starting to learn from each other and it's only been an episode.

Also liked Mozzi's introduction. He is quite the character.

Oh and the big thing about the episode was how Neal helped them catch the Dutch man. That was very clever and I like that Peter knew what was going on as soon as he saw where Neal went. It was a very funny scene. Like so many of the scenes in the episode.

Didn't like this episode as much as the pilot but it still had some good scenes. Especially the ones between Peter and Elizabeth, they're so cute. I like that he accepted the new watch from her even though he didn't particularly care for it. And I liked that she gave it back to him and told him that it wasn't him and she needed him to be agent Burke when he met with that guy at the park.

That last scene at the park was so great, how Neal swooped in and helped catch the bad guy. Jamming up the guys phone was a great idea and it was the kind of thinking they needed in that moment. The case wasn't as good this episode but I did like that scene.

I don't really remember how this storyline with his ex plays out and I'm not really interested in it. It was a lot more suspenseful the first time around.
