geebsTV commentary:
SVU- Ha, seriously, they went there? The kidnapping was indeed masterminded by Sheila?! And the gang trampled on all sorts of civil rights in this case!
Which, yes, it sucks, they want to help their friend's kid, to find him before he disappears. But at the same time, its not like Sheila was some sort of freak who was going to do something horrible to Noah. She felt she should have custody of Noah, and apparently the visitation Liv allowed wasn't enough for her. Certainly, it doesn't warrant getting rough with that guy or his daughter!
X-Files- what on earth was that ep? So last season's finale was all a dream, a vision Scully had of the future?! Was it the whole season? Like I don't mind if they pull some bullshit twist like that, just make it clear when the fake stuff started!
The Librarians- Wait, can he trust her? Jacob knows Sarina for what, less than a day? I mean, I get he doesn't want her to feel crazy. But like, showing her this big secret, and expecting her to keep quiet it about it? Out of... loyalty to him? I mean, she seems like a nice enough person, but she's also an investigative reporter. There's not a lot he said to convince her why she can't say anything.
Anyways, a lot of people have been complaining about this there should only been one librarian thing, and how does Darrington know, its only happened once. But when once leads to the Dark Ages, that's one time too many. There's cause to be cautious.
On the one hand, the Library did call them to be a team. I think Jenkins is experienced enough to know if trouble's brewing. And there's always been this sentient aspect to the library, that if them all being Librarians is going to be an issue, it would start defending itself (and the world). So I think if it was a problem, they'd know, because the Library would start doing things- they might not recognize what the Library was telling them at first, but it would be suspicious enough that they'd investigate and eventually figure out something's wrong.
On the other, having a bunch of people as crazy smart and skilled as them, it can be incredibly dangerous if they do come into conflict. Like they're definitely a team, they tend to listen to each other's points of view and work together well. But at the same time, you never know. They've overcome many apocalyptic threats, but on a long enough timeline, there's bound to be one where like maybe Cassandra is sure in her heart and mind that X is the best course of action, Ezekiel thinks they need to do Y, and Jacob Z.
Its possible they'll talk it out, see each other's points of view and find the optimum plan. But one day, there could be a point where they just disagree, and when the fate of the world is at hand, and they have the utmost conviction, they could turn on each other for what they feel is the greater good!
Oh, and Baird definitely has a right to be upset. Flynn keeps on leaving, it finally seemed like he was back for good, and he quits again, for real this time? Of course part of her feels like she would be the biggest fool in the world if she took him back after this.
