Begreat if there was a site that did that for every series. So if you want to watch a series without any filler episodes. Imagine how quickly you'd get through shows then

I think it's a terrible idea. You might get the core plotline, but you'd miss most of the character development. And you're relying on someone else's list - that one is terrible.
Most of season 1 is missing, including episodes which introduce recurring characters who are now going to turn up in future episodes without their background established (Zoe in the Fix, Mark Snow in Number Crunch, Simmons in Blue Code).
Let alone the fact it leaves out Matsya Nyanya, which is the basis for everything that ultimately leads to Samaritan.

haha that list is hilariously bad, they only have half of season 3, which to me is an almost perfect example of keeping up a great intensifying storyarc over the course of a 24 episode season, probably 2 or 3 filler episodes in season 3, if even, every episode had a meaning to the overall story,

i really cant wait for this show to be back, by far my favorite network show,

Heads up that it returns tonight/early morning.

Gingervitis · 24-09-2014 12:11PM

Great return for the series. I was really struck by the contrast in intelligence between this and Scorpion, the new CBS high tech thriller. Poles apart, in my view.

Between the Samaritan graphics, Carter's desk, the sideways gun, another Wire alumnus, a new female Herschel, using obsolete technology to hide, and the best taste in montage songs (see below), it's great to have it back.

This takes priority over Agents of Shield every day of the week!

yeah the attention to detail in this show is unrivaled, a great opener, i wonder if they will start the season off slow, by keeping it down to the number and bring samaritan into it more in the second half of the season,

they really are making samaritan out to be pure evil, eliminating anything that is a threat to its existence, or anything that can reveal it,

great return, i expected noting less from this show,

ixoy · 24-09-2014 11:11PM

Very good starter and nicely set up Samaritan. Wonder why Decima is disbanding though? Was it only set up for Samaritan?

My OH is lucky here. He's only just started season one where it's far more episodic. He doesn't yet realise just how good it's going to get.

squonk · 25-09-2014 10:38AM

Great opener! Lots of questions raised so far. Decima and who the Homeland Security agent was/is. How will the group avoid getting identified? Plenty of material to be getting on with. On a side note, can we have a web mini series based around Shaw working in the department store? She looked so out of place. Her wrapping Root's gift had me in stitches! She's one seriously hot lady, though I suspect Shaw might beat serious crap out of me for even saying that!

thats the thing with yerone, shes not a government agent, she works for decima or more than likely samaritan itself, whereas Harolds machine was protected by the government, samaritan protects itself, shes samaritans root,

yeah its gonna be interesting see what the machine has in store for shaw, did it send her to that crew for some rest and relaxation, or is she gonna be taking them down at some point, her reaction to see john as a cop was brilliant, but also it was interesting seeing her stop john, knowing the consequences for the 7 of them if john finished the job there and then,

CastorTroy · 25-09-2014 12:47PM

Shaw was in hell. Not only the job itself, but she had to be friendly and deal with people. Not exactly qualities she's known for. If it was a job in a gun shop she'd be happier. though as was suggested in a review I read, it was probably the Machine playing a joke on her since the Machine is so in touch with Root and knows Root enjoys messing with her.
Also convenient that Root seems to be rich in her new life.

Great opening episode anyway which sets things up for the season with the new network and the abandoned subway station(?). Wonder if they'll be sharing with turtles

miralize · 25-09-2014 01:16PM

I liked the changes in UI for Samaritan. Looks evil-er! :P

expectationlost · 30-09-2014 01:07AM

how was the eveil computer not seeing them was the good computer interefering with it

CastorTroy · 30-09-2014 01:59AM

That was what was done at the end of last season by Root and her hacker crew. They made the 7 of them (Root, Shaw, Finch, Reese, the 3 hackers) invisible to Samaritan using the servers. It's all they could do since they couldn't stop Samaritan.

Agent Coulson · 01-10-2014 01:56AM

Another really strong episode.

The standard of this show is amazing if it was made by HBO it would be the most talked about show in the world.

Mr E · 01-10-2014 08:23AM

That episode was absolutely fantastic. I have a feeling that Claire is going to be a major player this season.

as wil be her counterpart in the first episode, their doing a good job of making samaritin out to be the machines evil counterpart, purposely putting claire in danger only to save her at the last second so she will comply, i think maybe finch may have gotten to her a little and maybe she could end up being a way of taking samaritin down,

either that or shes gonna be twice as evil as we all thought root was gonna be,

squonk · 02-10-2014 12:06PM

Excellent episode. Nice to see the emergence of a new root for the Samaritan side, though Claire is more manipulated by Samaritan than our Root is by the machine.

I am hoping that somewhere, far along the line, some of her experiences with Finch and the team will come back to Claire and maybe stop her from destroying the team or even allow her to join them as an inside man on the Samaritan team, helping to take Samaritan down. It could go anywhere from here and it could be next Season before she shows up again!

One major black mark! Root is masquerading as a flight attendant and we're not given even a scene of her in that uniform! Unusually sloppy writing! Time to pick up the standard FFS

Another great episode

Pretty weak episode bar the Finch and Root stuff.

CastorTroy · 08-10-2014 10:12PM

I know it goes without saying but Shaw is feckin gorgeous.

I enjoyed this episode. I like Shaw and Fusco as a team. Actually pretty much every pairing in this show is fun.

Don't really want Reese and the new captain to become a couple, but if we get her helping out, I wouldn't complain.

One question I have though: How much does Fusco know? The reason I ask is because Shaw said he may be the perp which implies Fusco knows they get information but not much detail.
