*waits* *bites nails* Ack, this BB art claiming thing is kind of nerve wracking.
damn, that was a good ep for WC. Well-constructed, unpredictable, and hee, I love it when Peter's doing the con.
Peter go home to your wife! (I know he can't what with her not being there, but still. I miss her).
Covert Affairs:
- ok, Gregory Itzin as Sendhil Ramamurthy's dad is either the most awesome or hilarious thing ever. I can't decide. President Logan is Mohinder's dad! *snickers*
- I know it bugs some people, but I like that Annie's got talent but not always skill. She doesn't do everything perfectly, though she does a lot very well. But she can still be outplayed and she's still learning. As I wrote somewhere, each week is a little life-lesson in the Agency. This week's was a "how far is too far" lesson, going into the moral quandary problem (something I'm sure we'll be seeing more later)
- I like that Ben is an active part of the mythology. eta: as someone else pointed out: Ben is not the Kate (from White Collar). They're both somewhat motivating forces, but Kate was/is more of a Macguffin that Neal's trying to find (she's really more like Michael's thing on Burn Noticeer and acts as the string that keeps the eps together in order). Whereas Ben might have somewhat inspired Annie to get into the biz and she obv still cares for him, he isn't her sole motivator. She knows he's out there, but she's not (at least so far) using all the assets at her fingertips to find him. Instead it's kind of the reverse, in that Arthur's trying to use HER to reel him in. So, I don't know if that's "better" exactly, but it's different, at least.
- "There'll be a girl here before I even get across the bar." And there was! Well-played, show.
and of course, I've sat on this entry so long I completely forgot what else I was intending to say...
