Chief of Security dude. Maybe it's because I'm used to him with an Irish (?) accent on Lost, but I hear it every time he speaks. It was especially bad at the beginning. Maybe he's getting better.

The new season got off to a bit of a slow start with folks being generally obtuse about what was going on, but the plot is finally starting to be satisfyingly twisty.

I liked the show for a while, but got tired of the constant questioning, "Are we the good guys? Are we the bad guys?" Moral ambiguity can be interesting, but I thought they settled this issue back in the first season. The survival of the human race is at stake. Things are bound to get messy. Get over it.

I also thought the 2nd season twist was amazingly stupid. The Grounder leader allowed over 200 of her own people to be killed by that missile, just to hide the fact that they had someone inside the mountain feeding them intel, all so they could save a dozen or so of their own people? I guess they forgot how to do basic math since the fall of civilization. :roll: Anyway, none of that was necessary, because she ended up betraying her new Alliance, which they went to great lengths to protect, and ended up saving the handful of her people inside the mountain by making a deal with the 'bad guys' (or were they the good guys???).

Dumb twist for no other reason than having a surprise ending.

I get frustrated with it sometimes, but the every-episode-is-a-cliffhanger aspect works - I need to know what happens next.

Me too Sorus. Sure it has its frustrations .. Ive struggled with Clark quite a bit. I always liked Octavia but shes going through a dark stage. Which Im ok with but wanted more from her.

All in all its not awful by any means.

I am currently only a few episodes from being caught up. While I have been really good with the story telling, I am getting tired of these characters not learning a thing. They repeat the same errors over and over again. Only Congress is this stupid!!!

Soo... Season finale. Looks like next season will be the last. Unanswered questions and whatnot, but away from the stuff that will be explained - what happened to Eligius III's spaceship and landing craft and whatnot? Shouldn't the main ship still be in orbit?

A lot of plot holes to clean up in one Season. However I have watched so much of this show, I am vested in knowing what happens next. In that regard the writers have done a good job of keeping me hooked.

Well. That (S7, E8 ) answered a LOT of questions, including some that I thought would be swept under the rug. I'm sorry it's almost over. It's been a consistently entertaining series, even with all the times it's made me want to yell at the TV.

So far the season has been very good. I will be sad to see it all end.
