One of my favorite old shows was Starsky and Hutch. It was Paul Michael Glaser's first try at directing and it featured filming the actors through a stair railing. DB filmed Linda and Lucifer from outside her office through the blinds. I literally rolled my eyes because it was so annoying. But I'm all for learning a new skill...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-86356221895200667382021-10-26T09:41:27.678-04:002021-10-26T09:41:27.678-04:00@Honest Fangirl, I personally would recommend watc...@Honest Fangirl, I personally would recommend watching the first season of Heroes.

But surely it can't be that bad... right? (She says in a small, hopeful voice) Although the show runner saying that is... yeah that's not good. At all.

Then I realized what it was doing, and I loved it! <br /><br />A few of the re-enactments, especially the first, reminded me of an episode of Person of Interest: https://www.douxreviews.com/2015/01/person-of-interest-if-then-else.html<br /><br />Fangirl, I'd recommend watching that show (if you haven't) before watching Heroes, because Heroes is a complete dumpster fire of a disaster and yes I still feel burned by watching a show go that horribly off the rails so quickly and somehow the showrunner blamed the fans for not being smart enough and I'll stop typing now.<br /><br />I'm so, so happy that Lucifer has realized that the God job is not the right fit for him. I think I've been on the fence for most of this season because I wasn't sure if we were supposed to be rooting for him to realize he shouldn't be God, or come to terms with being God. Hooray for his choice!

It was an extraordinary experience that no other shrink has ever had or ever would have. And everyone would assume it was fiction.

And I liked how it showed how Lucifer stood Chloe up many times - but how many times he was there for her, too. Also, let me add that I like how Ella figured everything out.
