My last post was for episode 4.08, because I went out of town on vacation for a week and a half after that. I was out of the country for 4.09 & 4.10, so this is my post to link to those two reviews. At the time of my last post for 4.08, this is what I said:
I just pray that eps 4.09 and 4.10 are completely epic because ... they seriously need to be to make up for the lameness of 4.07 and 4.08.
So ... were they epic? Well ... no. They were not epic. They were not horrible, don't get me wrong, but they just, were NOT epic either. And rather than appease the frustrations I was already having after 4.07-8, they simply compounded and multiplied them. And it all ended in this scene:
This scene that just ... it broke my fangirl heart, because it was something that could have been SO amazing. It could have been. It SHOULD have been. There's no goddamn way this should have been anything other than ass-kickingly awesome. But it just wasn't, and the problem was NOT the scene itself. The scene on its own was wonderful. The problem was that very little of what led into it made sense. And therefore, the scene itself didn't hold much weight.
UGGH. Anyway. Just check out my reviews for the details. Will they fuck up the back 6 when the fall season starts?? We've had 6 good eps this season and then 4 not-great ones in a row. Somebody wave a magic TV wand for me, please.
