i saw it. it was cool to see vaughn say "last year sucked". kinda the producers taking blame for last season's shitfest and promising not to do it again i think.

There were so many references/parallels to the first season/the pilot it was crazy.
I'm so glad its back.

Off to a good start, I'd say. They never should have blown the SD-6 load so early (despite that being a great plot twist), but it's nice to see that dynamic back with APO. Should make for a better season.

im enjoying it so far. my only gripe: last season when vaughn is in bed, he tells sidney that part of the prophecy is that the chosen one and the passenger will battle, neither will survive. are we just supposed to pretend like that never happened? because if it did, vaughn would surely object to their working/living together

My favorite part of this week's episode: Driveshaft's (Charlie's band from Lost) "You All Everybody" was playing during the party for Weiss.

ALl I know is that Jack sure is a conniving MFer. How long are they going to let it slide that Nadia has the wrong info about mom, and also, you just know that when she does find out she's going to be pretty pissed at Syd for not giving her the truth.

Could they have come up with ANY more of a contrived way to get Weiss into it?

He could've fallen through the ceiling of APO while chasing after a quarter that fell into a sewer grate.

I think they (the writers) might've made a mistake bringing Weis in this soon. I think that could've been a good plot thread reminiscent of earlier seasons.

Not to mention the fact that they spent all of 2 minutes doing it. They completely missed out on an opportunity to write something interesting. They may as well have just had him in from the start.

i agree. they definitely should have played on his not knowing and believing that they all quit the CIA. that was always fun back in the day

This show took a nosedive about midway through the 2nd season and hasn't been good since.

I'm liking this season so far. So far the shows have been fairly "stand-alone". Last niights especially with the suburban neighborhood full of terrorists.

The full season arc probably just hasn't kicked in yet. It's entertaining so far, though.

They're slowly laying the ground work for it now -- last night they mentioned the third Derevko sister is at large and the Russians are looking for her. There have been other small elements from the first few episodes that have also been dropped.

The car-buying scene made me giggle.

The ending of last night's seemed very rushed to me. My wife and i were convinced it was going to be a -- To Be Continued -- episode and then all of a sudden they're wrapping it up. I did like the whole middle of russia American village, though, it was fun.

They used to have episodes like that weekly on Star Trek Voyager during the first few seasons. Annoyed the ever loving hell out of me.
