geebsTV commentary:
Hart of Dixie- I can get why they're pissed. As Zoe's cousin said, you get out what you put in. I can see them getting insulted, like she was spying on them to see if they were good enough to formulate a relationship with. I mean, I know Zoe was just scared and didn't mean it that way. But at the same time, they're family, she didn't think they would accept her if she came heart in hand?
I still like the Lemonade friendship, and as I said before, I would not be averse to them getting together, but Wade is her best friend? Not Annabeth?!
Which speaking of, I hope they don't break her and Levon up.
Agents of SHIELD- Hey, finally! Someone from the comics, Victoria Hand! (And she even has the red streaks in her hair) So interesting, a female SHIELD agent dropped Skye off at the orphanage. But given how mysterious Coulson was being about it and his convo with May and the open file, did said agent end up killing her parents and spared her? Was worried for a second there that May was secretly her mother. I mean, its possible. And Skye is half chinese (or at least her actress is)
Supernatural- HA! Cas thought he was gonna go on a date, but the lady just wanted him to babysit. Which, sure, it makes for a funny joke, and I realize he's been doing a good job and seems trustworthy, but still, she's just going to leave her baby with him?!
And interesting, why did Crowley inject himself with that human blood? It does look like Abbadon has taken over.
Person of Interest- Huh, I thought they implied something else previously. I swear in a previous ep they made it sound like her husband was killed in Iraq or Afghanistan (unless she was pulling an Obi Wan and since he was a mess she was being all, "The good man that was my husband is dead and replaced by that drunk jerk!") But nope, he's been alive this whole time, and that's where her son is.
That was a confusing timeline in the ep though. They started with the 38 numbers, showed Fusco and Reese looking into the truck heist, but then they jump back to several days before and Carter being the one to stir shit up between HR and the Russians.
Nice manipulative trick there, with Carter seemingly going into the end alone and saying all those goodbyes. I was worried she was done for and the gang would have to avenge her. But nope, it was a ruse, and she had called Reese to back her up and they grab head HR guy. Unfortunately, HR also knows what Reese looks like.
The Originals- Very tricky there, particularly with the timeline of TVD. So technically, last week's Vampire Diaries took place before last week's Originals? Because it turns out it wasn't Marcel who grabbed her, but Tyler!
He took her to the bayou, and actually knows a bit about her history, that she is descended from some big werewolf clan that has since been scattered into hiding. He gets some blood from Hayley's pregnant belly and injects it into a volunteer werewolf, whom he then kills to prove a theory- the guy does indeed turn into a hybrid, that I'm guessing doesn't need the doppleganger's blood to survive, though its not like they gave it enough time. Like he seemed okay, but didn't that sickness that the hybrids were developing take a few hours to manifest?
Anyways, it looks like those hybrids are sired to Hayley (or at least her daughter), and Tyler ends up having to put the guy down when he attack Tyler for making a threatening move against Hayley. He tells Hayley and Elijah when he shows up that that's why Klaus was really into the pregnancy, to use it to make new hybrids. So they believe Tyler, and Klaus is hurt that they would think ill of him. To be fair, he's been quite the villain (wow, seeing all the stuff he did to Tyler in a convenient set of quick flashbacks does show how thoroughly he effed with him) and it does sound like something he would do. So he bites Elijah, which won't kill him, but will make him quite ill for a while.
Klaus spares Tyler because he feels he has "broken" Tyler, so he could care less if he's running around. Which seems dumb, and sure enough, Tyler show up and tells Marcel all the deets and prolly seeks an alliance.
Lots of stuff like that going on in this ep. Marcel tries to get Rebekah to join his side, saying how he had actually created the garden as a monument for her, but then she never showed back up, and he turned it into a punishment for those who betray him. She definitely seems conflicted, because Marcel loves her, and she and her family love each other, but its all twisted up and Klaus' love is mixed in with a whole lot of control.
Also, Josh (I'm amused he's had such a significant role so far, I figured he was a redshirt) is given to Davina by Marcel (since he saw Josh at the plantation) to break the compulsion Klaus has over him. She does, but Davina and Josh totally bond, and while he's no longer compelled nor is she erasing his memory like Marcel wants- Josh doesn't want to forget her since she's the one friend he's found since his new life.

Date: 2013-11-14 04:53 am (UTC)...so Rebekah might join Marcel, but not she's stuck with Klaus wanting her on his side.. oh, the drama!
I did like the bonding between Josh and Davina, that was nice...

Date: 2013-11-14 06:59 pm (UTC)But yeah, even though Caroline and Tyler broke up, I'm sure that totally factored into Klaus' decision to spare him. I am amused that when Klaus left TVD, he was all, "I can wait!" Since they're immortal vampires, the writers could totally never have them get together on the shows, and presuming they both survive the ends of their respective series, and just be all, "Oh, they get together in the future!"
But yeah, I'm wondering if Josh and Davina will be to sneak around and be friends since as far as Marcel knows, he's forgotten all that. Which has got to be stressful for him- so now he has to pretend to Marcel that Davina wiped his memory, and pretend to Klaus that he's still compelled. Like I said, its interesting Josh ended up being a recurring character like that, and its good that they had him and Davina become friends- what with her being trapped in that room all the time, it would be kinda lame if she only ever got to interact with Marcel and Elijah.
