I was disappointed when I realized it's just a flash drive. =)<br /><br />I didn't catch what "Westy" did for the government, but I imagine telling people in a bar all about classified information and telling them you have missile codes on you makes you one of the worst government employees ever. Also, I doubt they allow people to put missile codes on a flash drive/memory stick in the first place because of the potential for it getting stolen as it did.<br /><br />The three episodes in a season felt strange. I appreciate that they're not trying to overdo it as many mystery shows do, which leads to extremely far-fetched plots. But it felt odd when the season consisted of the premiere, the season finale, and the one in the middle.Mariannahttp://www.mariannahorn.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-19033707394306458242012-11-08T11:00:58.104-05:002012-11-08T11:00:58.104-05:00"Why include a supernova in the painting?

Isn't that like painting an aeroplane in the background of the Mona Lisa?"<br /><br />I think the implication was supposed to be that, since the forger was recreating the night sky from sight, it wouldn't have occurred to him that one of the "stars" wasn't there in the 1600s.QRShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02099017376388100106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-22606046149463032122012-01-24T19:08:52.685-05:002012-01-24T19:08:52.685-05:00Just finished Season 1...this has quickly become a...Just finished Season 1...this has quickly become a favorite.<br /><br />Can't wait for Season 2 to air in the U.S....that cliffhanger was a killer!Soozenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-7441928175471458222010-11-09T22:33:59.028-05:002010-11-09T22:33:59.028-05:00Finally got to see this and as good as it was, I w...Finally got to see this and as good as it was, I was mildly disappointed with the ending, too. How can they inflict a cliffhanger on us when we have to wait for such a long time for another episode?

Keeping my fingers crossed for Claire Foy or Maxine Peake.Mark Greighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12984193299389764649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-91111688718675496852010-08-11T23:57:40.237-04:002010-08-11T23:57:40.237-04:00It was the best of the 3 episodes, although the cl...It was the best of the 3 episodes, although the cliffhanger was absolutely unnecessary. I'd like it much better if Moriarty had just gone and Holmes and Watson exchanged ashamed glances of failure. A bitter end beats no end at all.<br /><br />I didn't like Moriarty either. He was very petulant, like a spoiled child. However, think I understand why he was like that. If he were more collected, he'd be too similar to Sherlock, and even more to Mycroft. We can't have so many similar characters in a show.Gustavo Brunettinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-47937959478588100772010-08-11T21:25:48.357-04:002010-08-11T21:25:48.357-04:00Hi rock4ever95.

I hated Simms' Master in the Sound of Drums/Last of the Time Lords, but warmed to him in The End of Time (though not so much I ever want to see him again). A Tennant cameo would have been cool, though.<br /><br />As for Rock being forever, it better be ;o)Paul Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979646022056755322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-36117296691450028882010-08-11T21:04:05.072-04:002010-08-11T21:04:05.072-04:00I also disliked Moriarty(I was hoping for a surpri...I also disliked Moriarty(I was hoping for a surprise David Tennant appearance) but I have to disagree about John Simm.
