I'm so sorry.
Though to be fair, most of those posts were at the beginning of the season, and I somehow ended up being the one who posted the most.
Season 4 guys. It's my redemption arc.

Is there a more amazing show on TV right now? The vast majority of the episodes of Season 3 are of such high quality that they would be finale worthy of most shows. The mid season ending arc was outstanding, and the finale arc seems to somehow find ways to keep upping the stakes to ridiculous levels.
Best damn show on TV, no contest, imo of course.
[spoilers]America, if POI is canceled because of low ratings, you deserve to be prosecuted by Philip Collier for crimes against humanity.[.spoiler]

Blocked in germany.
"Fuck the EU", eh? :,(
A subject some of us have talked about (though probably hidden in black text).
Yeah, I'm hoping the identity of who that person is, is exciting and suprising, and not just a random guy recruiting collier into Vigilance.

With the shot importance placed on that text, I doubt it will be a random guy. I'm sure that will be the reveal at the end of the finale.
General spoiler rule is that once an episode has aired in its target market, it's fair game for discussion outside spoiler bars.

I couldn't agree more. This show is, hands-down, among the best I've seen in recent memory. I'm not sure how it is doing ratings-wise (I'm not in America) but I hope it's getting a lot of viewers. I couldn't think of any other American show that is as well-written as this. Looks like I finally found my replacement for Fringe.
GungHo
Single-handedly caused Exxon-Mobil to sue FOX, start World War 3
Because it's preceded by two hours of the NCIS Cataract Express, which appeals to the "people who think the ATM is a little guy in a box" demographic. Computers as tools of good and evil is pretty high concept for that crowd.

I'm glad CBS is in charge of the show instead of this thread. Everyone here seems to think it's teetering on death while CBS puts out press releases every week praising its ratings wins and analysts had it as an easy lock to be renewed all year.
Your measuring sticks for success are not the same as theirs.

Well press releases are not really that objective. And I mean that in a "press releases are worthless"-kinda way. The ABC ones are always entertaining to read. But aside from that, the ratings are not that horrible yet to be overly concerned.

As far as programs of this type go, it's easily the best I've seen. No it's not on the level pf Breaking Bad or The Wire but given it's a procedural on the same channel as NCIS? The quality it's at is crazy.
As I said, PoI is a very good show. Better than shows like NCIS (Though I'm also hesitant to call NCIS for example a shit show. It may have run its course, but there's still merit in this kind of show. Team dynamic and stuff) and co.
But even on network there are shows like Hannibal and especially The Good Wife, that can easily compete with PoI. Obviously there are personal preferences to consider, but when you at least try to have a somewhat objective view on things, it comes apparant that PoI has a few elements that hold the show back from being truly excellent. (The relatively weak case of the week are the biggest one and sometimes hurt the pacing.)
So I've been wanting to say that John and Zoe need to get a room already, but this episode of season 2 in a hotel clearly shows that they have been getting it on 
Man I love Zoe, I want her to be a regular too damn it. This show has the best supporting characters

My bro.
I liked the Collier backstory. Gave us a nice insight into what motivates him.
Although how the fuck Vigilance gets their intel is still unexplained
Yeah, the backstory was well done.
Be a hell of a twist if it was Finch. Can't be Ingram, he DEAAAAAAAAAAAD.
I wonder if I should click these.

Other then the trailer, they're just clips from last night.

you really should stay away from this thread until you're caught up.
Nah I don't care. Also...
Holy shit you guys it's a female John, but even more badass if that's possible

Shaw? If yes, she's amazing
This episode was fucking amazing. I won't even ask if she shows up again because it's obvious she will, she was ridiculously badass. Jesus Christ this show, how is this possible, I've never seen so many strong characters in 1 show. Also this ep had Root (yo Root's crazy) and Tau the sleazy accountant or whatever he is, another awesome side character!
This show man...
Wait until season 3 and you will see how you haven't seen nothing quality wise

Think over the summer I'm going to rewatch Seasons 1 and 2. I half paid attention to them and only watched when someone was getting their ass kicked. Sorta miss a little of the story that way =/

Hope you're better, Error!
Also, Relevance is perhaps my favorite episode. Curiously enough it's Jonah Nolan's first attempt as a director.
Wonder when will be the next episode he'll direct.

I love watching people's reactions for the first time, can't wait for the Season 2 Finale reaction.
Intro to episode 21 all corrupted is a nice touch. 2 to go, wonder if the finale will be as crazy as season 1
Edit: yo Root is kinda crazy
Edit: Shaw!
Edit: oh Shaw why are you such a motherfucking badass?
Editeditedit!
John holding a shotgun: "what's this for?"
Shaw:"to help you feel less inadequate while I drive this thing"
OH SNAP
Last edit: and season 2 done. Good finale, not as good as S1 finale. I wish Shaw was a regular. Also I liked the little exchange between John and Harold about what he pays john, which apparently is a lot. Just a little detail I had been wondering myself and I'm glad they touched on.
On to season 3 then!

Noooo wtf they changed Shaw's actress?
Edit: I'm talking about season 3 first, she just looks... different. Maybe it's the long hair. And in googling if they had changed the actress, I came across a spoiler about
ffs. And even tho I am in a spoiler thread, it still pissed me off. I didn't have any major point spoiled by you guys, I go 1 time on google.. Damn it. Oh well
