 Re: REVENGE
Most entertaining show on TV right now. Love that last scene as well!! The new EW has Revenge on the cover - great for the show. http://www.ew.com/ew/inside/issue/0,,ewTax:1191,00.html

 Re: REVENGE
This show is basically crack. I don't even remember stuff like Desperate Housewives or The O.C. being this addictive at their peaks.
Loved the ending. I feel like Amanda being the one leaving the "message" for Emily is a little too obvious. Maybe it was Tyler? OR LYDIA. It is her old house, after all.
Poor Charlotte. They've done a nice job with her character in the last few episodes. She's not the most interesting character on the show but Christa B. Allen is doing a nice job and she's nice to have for the human element (she even humanized Conrad in this episode).
I always enjoy William Devane.
Can't wait until we finally see what shit hits the fan in next week's episode.

 Re: REVENGE
Yeah I thought the same thing about Charlotte. She was almost a fringe character to begin with but her character has certainly taken on a more vital role and Christa B Allen has risen to the occasion.
I was thinking it was Tyler who has returned but now that you mention it - could more likely be Lydia!!
Are we supposed to find out what happens at the engagement party next episode??

 Re: REVENGE
I feel bad for Nick Wechsler. He now basically plays the same character he played in Roswell.

 Re: REVENGE
Ah damn - I thought i'd seen him somewhere before. Been years since I watched Roswell, worth another watch.

Still want to though but you dont sound like you liked it much? I'm the same. I have first two seasons on DVD. I've been planning for years to buy the third one but I just can't force myself. I remember hating everything every character did. Especially Isobel. She was the worst. And I hated her husband (the CSI Miami guy). I don't even remember how it all ended. I just remember that it was a BAD season. Though in retrospect it might not be that bad as I remember it. But I've always had a soft spot for Roswell and maybe it's just that the huge changes the show went in third season (UPN picked it up from WB with Buffy) never went down well for me. To steer this talk back into the Revenge - I kinda don't want Daniel to die, but I think it would be a bad omen for the show if he survives. When a show seemingly goes back on itself and lets a character survive that was obviously supposed to die it never ends well for the plot (yes I still can't get over Sylar not dieing in the first season of Heroes).

 Re: REVENGE
Amazing. After 15 episodes of buildup to that, I wasn't at all disappointed. And I feel like that's something to cherish on a show like this. lol
I think we all knew it wasn't going to be Daniel that bit it. Because...come on. Anyway, the return of Creepy Tyler (for the last time, I'll assume, since he seems to be quite dead) and his soapy antics was enjoyable. And Daniel being alive and on trial makes for more interesting possibilities. It'll lead to more awesome Grayson drama (how awesome was Queen Victoria's "don't say a word..." on the beach?), the question of what Emily will do now, the question of how much Tyler actually revealed to Daniel about Emily, etc.
As well as the question of just where the hell Sensei was taking Amanda.
As well as the question of, oh yeah, WHO THE ACTUAL SHOOTER WAS.
God this show is awesome.

 Re: REVENGE
I'm pretty sure Sensei is going to interrogate and then kill her. I don't see how she could bring much to the story now.
I also think that Emanda shot Tyler, not Daniel. My guess is Daniel's in shock because of the dead body.
The one thing I don't understand is why the Sensei decided to help her again. I thought last time he said that it would be the final time he would help her so when I saw Takeda-san again, it confused me.

 Re: REVENGE
I was a bit disappointed. Once Tyler came on screen I knew he was the dead body on the beach. Also fake Amanda/real Emily jumping ships every minute???? Huh??? WTF? And I agree with Blue, sensei aiding real Amanda/fake Emily again after he explicitly stated he will not help her anymore. Felt a bit rushed/forced. They definitely ran around in circles a bit in this episode. But things are still fairly interesting.

 Re: REVENGE
I think sensei killed Tyler. He must have knocked out Daniel (as there is a shot previously seen of Daniel falling) and shot Tylrer.
I guess Jack will be implicated in some way due to touching the phone.
Also what's in that box Emily buried in the sand??
A great episode though - the tension building up to the beach scenes was amazing.

 Re: REVENGE
Smart storytelling device last night showing that Daniel did take the first shot against Tyler, even if Revenge Sensei was involved.
A lesser variation of this show (like Ringer) would've taken the rest of the season to explain something that took this show 5 minutes.
I can't believe there are no new episodes until April. That truly blows.

 Re: REVENGE
WHAT?????? Thats a joke. I hate ABC. I honestly wish I just waited for the season to finish and just download the whole lot.

 Re: REVENGE
What an awesome episode. Loving all these twists and turns. Conrad really is trying to usurp Queen Victoria for evilest character on the show.
But seriously, I was so getting ready for Daniel to die. And Jack must be the stupidest person alive. I wonder how far Nolan will go now that he knows that the Grayson's killed his only mentor/friend.

 Re: REVENGE
Such a grim and deliciously juicy episode. REVENGEEEEEEEEEEE!
Maybe the best part was Conrad threatening Victoria's lover Mysterious Painter Man and hopefully getting rid of him for a few episodes. I mean, I'm not complaining that he didn't seem to own shirts but the storyline itself is just kind of awkward and silly. It feels like we're watching outtakes from Unfaithful or something.

 Re: REVENGE
I have to agree with the James Purefoy storyline. Seems rather odd and out of place. I suspect it will serve a purpose later on but Victoria seeking solace with him and then Conrad threatening him while they hilave far more urgent things to deal with seems strange. However, it does prove how reckless Victoria is. Conrad is equally bad but more cunning/calculated.
Some nice twists and turns. Look forward to see how the first season pans out.

 Re: REVENGE
The trial plot was preposterous but not in the fun way that everything else is preposterous. Glad we are past it.
And, yeah, James Purefoy, wtf

 Re: REVENGE
Great episode tonight, one of the best of the series. Probably because there was nothing with The Trial or Shirtless Artist. Can't wait for the end of the season.

 Re: REVENGE
Yeah good episode like the last one.
I wonder how they'll end this season and how they intend to continue the story in Season 2.

 Re: REVENGE
Last night's episode was really boring and pure filler. I can't wait for the final two episodes though.
