Thanks for starting, Anne! Topping now!

Thanks Anne!

The links aren't working though

but I presume the pics are the same as the ones on this site.

YAY DOTTIE IS BACK, can't wait!

And we're getting two episodes ... but also sad, because that means the season will end earlier.

**Always & Forever** · 02-15-2016, 08:59 AM

They're working for me. That's weird you can't see them, Sarah.

Two episodes for me means I'll probably watch Ep 1 live, then watch the second one when I get home from work on Wednesday.

I'm looking forward to seeing Dottie back, though!

destroyer of worlds · 02-16-2016, 06:17 AM

Oh you can? That's really strange, the links still aren't working for me.

Yeah same here, will watch one episode tomorrow and then another one the following night.

Bellydancer_1 · 02-16-2016, 10:20 AM

Sarah, I'll try to re-upload the pics tomorrow. Can't see them on my tablet either. Works perfectly on my PC, though.

**Always & Forever** · 02-16-2016, 04:41 PM

Enjoy the episodes tonight!

I will try to come post about it once I watch the second episode sometime tomorrow.

Oh no that's so sweet of you Anne

but not necessary. It's probably my computer being sucky again

and I can see it via the other link I posted.

Enjoy the episodes, everyone!

How did you guys like the new episodes? I thought they were absolutely fantastic. Jarvis was like James Bond 2.0 in his tux, totally yummy!

And I loved seeing Dottie again, and Ana!

Will post a more detailed "review" tomorrow!

I thought both episodes were great!

I loved seeing Jarvis taking control of the mission & his interactions with Dottie were hilarious!

I feel bad for Peggy, caught in this love triangle.

I loved her conversation with Jarvis, though! I felt like he was her big brother/BFF looking out for her (not what you want to hear, sorry, Anne!

). I feel like her scenes with Daniel have more chemistry and are more sincere & intense, whereas her scenes with Jason seemed more forced...

Maybe that's just the Peggy/Daniel shipper in me talking.

Not like I care either way, but if I had my way, she would pick Daniel, if/when she has to choose one of them.

Seeing Dottie in action was fabulous! I love all of her facial expressions!

Bridget must have so much fun with this character!

Ugh! That guy taking Daniel's job pisses me off!

I can't wait until Whitney sucks him up!

And we were totally right about her husband!

I didn't think he was the loving, supportive husband she thought.

Yay for another 2-parter next week!

With two episodes it extra hard to put my thoughts together. I already have a hard time with one!

Both episodes were great!

I liked that they didn't let Peggy heal right away. That's she still recovering from her wound. It was fun to see them mix things up a bit. It looks like she'll be able to get back into the action next week which I'm happy about! lol

I loved that Daniel didn't buy that guys crap like Thompson. That guy totally sent those guys to beat him up. Hopefully Daniel will be the one to take him down. Also liked how he still had Peggy's back and was doing his job even though his personal life was in of a bit of a mess.

I had a feeling that either the council or Whitney's husband might die. It ended up being both. I actually felt bad for when her husband betrayed her and that whole scene was kind of harsh to watch. The whole scene with Whitney and Dottie! Yikes that was freaky and scary!

These were some great episodes for Jarvis. The undercover work was awesome. I loved how he told both Thompson and Whitney a thing or two. Anna. Jarvis became a completely different person when he heard about her. It was both heartbreaking and awesome. They love each other so much!

I actually enjoyed the scene between Peggy and Thompson only because Peggy didn't take his crap. lol

The Peggy/Jarvis friendship is so sweet. I loved the conversation between them in the car and the moment of them in the hospital together.

Pretty much agree with you Jessica. I wish they haven't done any sort of love triangle. Also I think the whole relationship between Peggy and Wilkes comes off forced and rushed. While Wilkes has been somewhat developed that relationship hasn't really been in my opinion except have some nice moments in a few episodes. Daniel not only been developed as a character, but his relationship with Peggy has been too (over two seasons) and are all things you pointed out Jessica. They've also shown them being a great team and I feel like Daniel is someone who would fit in the world Peggy lives since he's in the same profession and most likely feels the same about adventure. I don't see Wilkes being someone who would want to live the rest his life like that. The only thing differing between us of course is that I care either way. lol

That cliffhanger! Ugh, next week can't be here enough! They look good!

I never express this much, but I got to give praise to the cast and crew for all their hard work. Applause all around they did an AWESOME job!

How do you know that Thompson was behind Sousa's beating?

Especially since he had returned to New York, after capturing Dottie.

I didn't think so. Why was Peggy and Jason's relationship forced?

At the moment, Peggy has no romantic relationship with either Jason or Sousa. First of all, Jason has been developing as a character, along with Ana Jarvis and Whitney Frost. When did he all of a sudden became an undeveloped character? Because he was introduced this season? I guess that means Ana and Whitney are undeveloped characters, as well.

I wouldn't make such an assumption, considering that I'm not the one who had created the Jason Wilkes character in the first place . . . or had portrayed him.

It probably is.

I was impressed by how Thompson managed to take out Miss Underwood. Very impressed.

*OldHollywoodStarlet* · 02-17-2016, 11:26 PM

Huh? I never said that Thompson sent those guys to beat up Daniel. I wrote that guy Thompson believes in and working with sent all those guys to Daniel's house. I just couldn't remember his name. So I guess confusion/miscommunication there.

Another huh. I never said that Jason wasn't a developed character just that I thought his relationship with Peggy was underdeveloped.

That's what I'm assuming from what they've shown of his character so far. Could it not be true? Sure, but I've read a sort of recap/thoughts on it, from a legit site, where they thought the same thing. So I'm not a lone in that at all.

Bellydancer_1 · 02-18-2016, 03:50 AM

^It was Vernon Masters that sent the thugs to beat up Sousa, not Thompson.

I agree about the relationships. Of course Sousa's character is much more fleshed out, he's been there for a whole season before Dr. Wilkes arrived. And there are more scenes between Peggy and Daniel, so no wonder that their relationship is more developed than that with Jason. Besides, we witnessed that Jason could become quite aggressive (due to the Zero Matter of course), so that also makes us "root" more for PeggySous.

As to the episodes in general: I think they were absolutely great and it would be such a shame if this is indeed going to be the last season.

I was so happy to see Dottie again, she's such an interesting and enigmatic character and a brilliant antagonist to Peggy - although they both respect each other in some way.

The scenes with Dottie and Jarvis were also brilliant, quite the power couple on the dance floor!

And I totally loved that Jarvis was really kicking some butt in both episodes - the scene with Thompson was fantastic.

Also many great scenes between Peggy and Jarvis, the one in the car really stands out, as does the last scene in the hospital where for once she is the one to "stitch up his wounds".

I knew Ana had it coming when she told her husband to be careful. And such wonderful scenes between the Jarvises!

Poor Jarvis was so distressed when he found his wife being shot by Whitney. I'm sure he's wanting to get revenge now. DarkJarvis, anyone?

Whitney - what a monster (I suppose that's what the episode title was supposed to imply)!

My sympathy for her has now completely vanished. She needs to be eliminated, some way or other - as does that slimy git Vernon Masters. Another terrible person! I still wonder if Jack will come round and support our gang eventually. I still think he's not completely won over by Vernon.

Poor Daniel and Peggy - being totally ****-blocked by Dottie!

Let me reply to the above with this:

Although I still think they would make a great couple - if circumstances were different, of course...
