geebsDang, I totally forgot last night was the Clone Wars season finale, which had the Maul/Savage team up. Its too bad the cartoon is tainted by the lameness that is episodes I-III, because it actually has its moments.
Of course, to me the show suffers the problem of being set between Episodes II and III, because at a certain point you start going, "How much friggin stuff happened between those two movies?!" And they introduce interesting characters who don't exist in the movies so I think the show struggles with what to do with these characters- they want them to have a cool arc, but eventually they're going to have to "disappear".
TV commentary:
Fairly Legal- Heh, did I miss something, was Anders just attacked randomly? And Adama's father wanted him to lay the blame on some other random guy who didn't do it? (I was going to make a comment about how amusing I thought it was to refer to not one, but two characters by their BSG/Caprica characters here, and then I realized Tigh was also in this episode.)
Oh, and I found assistant guy's joke about Lauren being a former pr0n star hilarious, because I can actually see that. I think its the face, she has like a "come hither" face.
In Plain Sight- Are they really excusing Mary choosing to keep this kid as a subconscious desire to protect and be there for someone because her mom and sister got their lives together? Only, as we learn, her sister hasn't! And oh, its not like she runs into a lot of people she needs to help and protect AS A WITSEC MARSHALL.
Heh, and could it be any more obvious wheels was a traitor?! I mean, I suppose they try to throw you off by making you think, "Oh, he couldn't be a bad guy, he's handicapped!" The episode was about a secret society with big reach. It was obvious there was going to be an inside man. And its like, there was only one other character introduced in the ep, so who else was going to be the breach?!
