Melissa loves geeky things. Fanfiction, Dr. Who, cosplay, comic book tattoos, skinny guys with a penchant for historical LARPing - these are all a few of her favorite things. She spends her days pretending to work diligently at her writing, when really she plays epic games of Flash Battleship and fake knife fights around the livingroom. When she finally tires of that, she manages to bang out reviews and articles about all of the awesome fangeeky things she's thought about that day. She kinda wishes she could make tons of money at it, but knows she would just spend it all on super hero capes for her cat and a herd of Aldabra tortoises for her yard. 3 Comments

I was a bit disappointed with this episode. Largely because, when they started putting up the “[Character]‘s Story” cards I was expecting something more like Rashomon. With the narrative remaining consistent, we didn’t really need introductions to each character’s part of the overall story, especially since there was so much overlap. And, yeah, killing off Cromartie was fairly predictable and overdue. Villains lose their power the longer it takes them to do damage to the hero(es).
I expected more from the way the story was broken up into pieces for each character as well. But at least it seems like the writers might actually be trying for a change. They didn’t rely on time travel once again to make up a part of the storyline, and they killed off a character who was way passed his prime. Now if they can just stick to trying new – and hopefully better – things, this show might actually become good.
I have to say, while this wasn’t a great episode, I actually kind of loved how bad Cromartie’s death scene was. My housemates and I were laughing, and I was sitting there going “When did this episode become a Robert Rodriguez movie?!” It was a “so bad it’s good” moment for me.
John just needs to hurry up and dump that bitch. She’s annoying, and they’re annoying together.
