geebsTV commentary:
Nikita- Interesting, looks like Nikita is taking a page from the VD playbook and not dragging things out? I mean, I wonder if its that the CW gets trounced in the ratings by the real networks, that the writers of their various shows are starting to be all, eff it, and going all out? The thing with Alex, they could've easily and annoyingly taken several eps for Gogol to figure out that she was an Udinov. But nope, they cut the BS and kept this storyline moving forward.
I also liked how what could have been a random storyline of the week weaved all those various storylines together. Solid ep, this week.
Fringe- Interesting, so in this new timeline, Liv and Nina Sharpe are somehow close, with Nina even knowing about Liv's prom experiences. I'm curious how that happened. Also, apparently Liv is fully aware of the Cortexaphan trials (whether she never forgot it, or if her memory was restored about it in the now like in the original universe, we don't know), but never ended up meeting any other Cortexaphan kids until now? So just like the changes delayed her meeting her universe's Lincoln Lee, it sounds like several cases never happened?
But, finally! The freak of the week somehow shunts Peter back into this universe. He remembers everything, but apparently when he was trying to contact Walter and Olivia, was not cognizant of the universe changing? Because he seems quite shocked that no one knows who the hell he is.
Supernatural- Hey, the return of Jo! Alona Tal still looks so pretty. But heh, you know when Dean was joking about her having a massive crush on him, it was also a lot of wishful thinking on his part. I mean, the whole, she would've followed him anywhere because she admired him as a hunter is kinda BS, she had to like him despite thinking he was kinda a jerk. And no way Dean wasn't interested in her in that way. She's someone who could keep up with him, and hot to boot. I don't buy him seeing her as a little sister, because I'm pretty sure he still wanted to bang her. Its too bad they never explored those two on the show.
Oh, and during Osiris' trial, its kinda BS that they were trying to argue Sam might've had a normal life had Dean not come back into his life! Have they not watched the last few seasons, they were the lynchpins of the apocalypse! Sam was fed demon blood and was destined to become Lucifer's vessel. Even one of his law school friends was secretly a demon. There was no happy normal life in the works for Sam ever.
But, wow, douche move on Dean's part, despite all this, he's still keeping mum on killing Amy.
