Oh, it is Tom behind the door. Big surprise. Also, who is the freakishly tall guy? Credits don't come up with much.

Lizzy should do the Foghorn Leghorn bit where she makes Tom chase her to the foot of the stairs when the chain link tauts and he falls over and then Lizzy drops an anvil on his head or whoops his rear end with a 2x4.

Who the gently caress plays Ezra? He looks/sounds really familiar and Googling comes up with nothing.

I like how they had a guy who went to downtown New York in the 1300s (and, it seems, one writer who realized this wasn't possible and threw in a single throwaway line about how he did it 100 years before Columbus) and just so happened to die with the disease in a spot that they eventually built a church on top of. But his 14th century mason jar full of ebola survived perfectly!

Oh but I forgot my favourite part. *Agent Mossad gets shot* "No I'll come in and also get infected to help you not bleed out!!!!" *comes into the room, puts her arm around Mossad's shoulders, bitches about her life while not helping her colleague do anything about the whole bleeding out thing*

So...I'm I the only one who's been enjoying this show unironically from the beginning? I don't really understand all the hate this show is getting on SA. I mean I'm not going to tell you it's genius or anything or even that good. I know it's really stupid but that's why I like it. The plot lines can get so pulpy and insane most of the time it's great! The Villains are so over the top that they probably be more at home fighting batman then on network TV. Actually the more You think about the more you realize just how comicbook-y the whole thing is. That's the main reason I like it so much. But yeah the writers should spend less time thinking of "mysteries" because they're not good at it. They should spend more time thinking of what ridiculous gimmick/superpower that next week's guest star will have. Also more Pee Wee.

It's B-Level Gold, puffed up by Spader's Spadering (I don't know what else to call it). For what it is, I unironically like it, too. And if I were on the writing team, I'd embrace the pulp and make it even more B-movie. poo poo, I'd bend over backwards to bring in Bruce Campbell as one of The Numbers. Someone in the irc, #satviv, even suggested bringing in John Noble to straight up reprise Walternate. You can have more fun with the material when it's B-level, when it's pulpy. Although I will file a complaint about the drug-addicted guy. Not a fan of drug addiction arcs like that. He would've been best as [Generic Reliable Partner] but I've got my fingers crossed they're going to have him go dirty and bounce back as a Fusco: Redux kind of deal, if you watch Person of Interest.

This. The addition of Paul Rubens this season has been great and I hope we get to see more of him. I enjoy watching Spader interact with him and the actor who plays Dembe. FBI scenes make for good time to go use the bathroom or grab a snack. You don't miss much. Also, you can add me to the list of people who enjoy the show. The FBI are incompetent and terrible, but they just add to the charm.

I figured out every twist in this episode but I still give it decent marks for lifting the plot drat near entirely from that ridiculously cool iranian nuclear scientist assassination a few years back. Tweedle Dum and Dumber are lucky they didn't follow it TOO closely, however! Some kind of disorienting device as opposed to a fistful of semtex, haha.

I gotta say, even as one of the (seemingly few) people who unironically enjoy the show as it is, I would absolutely be on board with them going balls to the wall crazy with whatever the Fulcrum is and what's going to happen in 2017. Throw some insane sci-fi curveball and have it work out because A) the pure audience-draw that is Spader, and B) the show is almost too big to fail.

I almost wonder if ~The Fulcrum~ is a sign that Bokenkamp is ripping off the Jericho (yes, *that* show) continuation graphic novels. In that, the guy who masterminded the nuclear terrorist attacks on American cities has in his possession a thumbdrive called ~The Precipice~ that allows him unfettered and untraceable access to all of the bad guys' computers and databases. And seeing how the very definition of a fulcrum is either a point upon which a lever pivots or 'a thing that plays a central or essential role in an activity, event, or situation,' I'm thinking it's probably some sort of 'master key' thumbdrive.

Let's engage in wild conjecture about 2017!quote:The remaining Kennedy assassination related documents are scheduled to be released to the public by 2017, twenty-five years after the passage of the JFK Records Act. Among the items most sought after by researchers are some 1,171 documents still closed by the CIA on national security grounds. The assassination of JFK cemented an otherwise soft-coup by a transnational plutocracy. They are on schedule to let their existence slip with the release of these documents. The Fulcrum is some sort of high-level of docket of operations, assets, etc. whose release would disrupt timelines.
