Excited for that conversation because he'll make it so Arkady that it'll be perfect.

I think it's a finale story, so had to be one or the other. A little late for mid-season now.

[shinebrighterxx]

What would normally be mid-season has already aired unless we get a later one . I presume midseason isn't a thing this season

I wouldn't be surprised to see Katya turn up sooner rather than later

Then wedding plans could still be held off until next season

[BlondieLeigh]

I guess we'll see, but I wouldn't put it past them bringing Katya back in around the wedding. More dramatic that way.

[shinebrighterxx]

I don't know. A very quick turn around from engagement to wedding if they did that. I think that Katya will come up while Anna is away which will reunite her with Callen & he will propose after it is over personally

[BlondieLeigh]

Tbh I would prefer that (Callen doesn't need the drama), just not sure they'll be able to resist it.

[florerr]

I don't trust the writers either...

I don't think that Anna & Callen would spend as much time with wedding planning as Densi did... Or I'm just hoping that they won't

[BlondieLeigh]

I don't think they're the big wedding type, but Arkady may push for it.

[florerr]

I can totally see him pushing them for a traditional Russian wedding... or something like that

[BlondieLeigh]

It could be hilarious to watch them trying to fight him on it.

[shinebrighterxx]

Oh Arkady I can totally see pushing his way. I'd almost wonder if Anna & Callen were the type to elope tbh . Anna though I think would want the wedding

I don't think that they'd spend a lot of time planning a wedding out or having a big wedding, I just think that a proposal & wedding within this season would be a very quick turn around. Especially when its a shorter season (even if it isn't by much). I think the writers would want more time to plan out & write the wedding episode. Unless they've been planning it out already but I still think the turn around of having both in one season is too soon. Plus if they hold off on the wedding episode until next season they may be able to do more with it as they may not have to deal with covid/covid restrictions as much

[BlondieLeigh]

Eloping would be fun, but yeah, I think Anna would want a small wedding, especially after that comment from Callen last season suggesting she's looking for stability.

I kind of don't want them to make a big thing of the wedding overall, tbh. Maybe just a couple of comments about planning that we don't see (I don't think we need to). Next season would be better. I've known a lot of shows to rush these things, though.

Although all we know so far is he talks to Arkady soon (or at least tries to), and with Anna away, the proposal could be late in the season - maybe after Katya?

[florerr]

Wedding next season makes more sense

I wouldn't want to see many scenes with them planning the wedding... Densi overdid it a bit imo...

It'd be nice to close the Katya-chapter shortly after Anna's return, and well before the actually wedding...

[BlondieLeigh]

It would.

Wedding planning can be so dull, we don't really need to see it (except the Arkady parts, those we need)

It'd definitely be nice to close the Katya chapter sooner. Idk, maybe Katya making an appearance could delay any proposal because it wouldn't be the time.

[florerr]

We absolutely need Arkady

I'm fine with a delayed proposal as well, as long as we see Callen asking Arkady for Anna's hand first

[BlondieLeigh]

Basically, other than the proposal, which is kinda necessary, skip everything that doesn't involve Arkady.
