I would've loved that original wacky guy to become an ally of sorts, in place of Kyle. What's even going on there? The commentary for the earliest episodes seemed to suggest they'd do something more interesting with him than the typical aggressive ex, but this Buddhist shit is just kind of bananafish to me. And he acts like such a baby about the whole aliens thing, even at this point (s2e11). I'm just over him... give me back Alex focus. <br />Oh, I have to say I was ABSOLUTELY PSYCHED to hear them use Linkin Park's "With You" for the intro of the episode with the Brooklyn doppelgangers. I don't know why but that always felt like a song that I'd never expect to hear in this kind of show... even though Linkin Park was name-dropped in Smallville too lol. Speaking of which I was also shocked by and loved the usage of Radiohead's "How To Disappear Completely" for the summit prep scene. So very haunting. "The moment's already paaaast, yea it's gone...." Very, very cool for me.Onigirlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10070327483035350298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-14485657319820865232020-06-17T13:19:17.620-04:002020-06-17T13:19:17.620-04:00Thanks so much for this one, Panda.

It was pretty weird.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.com
