Productive Day

[tristan_19 · 8/10 · 8 November 2021]

This episode hits. The characters are trust into the unknown, as the pieces are moving forward. Jadis is looking for answers, and Lyla covers for Leo, before coming clean. The editing is flawless in this episode. Hope and Iris face a dilemma, while Huck is literally caught in the middle of the action. Gotta say, Jadis is scary and she knows how to play the game. Lyla's demise is actually tragic.

The sense of motion is palpable, and it seems the whole series is about to come to a head, which is expected at this point. We also get some revelations about what the CRM is doing... Hope has now a new card in her hand, as she discovers, at the same time as the audience, that Mason is General Beale's son. So, yeah... It was a productive dam* day, as Negan would say...

Great Episode! Looking Forward to the Last Three!

I really enjoyed this episode. I love where the direction this story goes to.

Jadis is definitely more powerful and intimidating than her appearances on the original Walking Dead show, and that's how well developed her character has come since Rick Grimes' last appearance on that show.

I love that Huck is put into a dilemma and where her allegiance is after Lyla's death scene.

That line during Lyla's death scene when Jadis says her earlier line of dialogue, "The rat will eventually get tired, but the dead won't" is so perfect. So poetic and how it bites Lyla back after ratting Leo, Hope, and Iris out during Leo's interrogation.

My only issue with the episode is the pacing of it. I do wish the performances were performed more quickly and less pauses in-between. That could be just my impatience to not take some time to soak in all of the information.

Once again, pleasantly surprised.

Like the last episode, this episode was surprisingly good. It did everything the previous episode did right and was even better by not focusing on the kids and having the show's first main character death which was super gruesome. Best episode by far.

This episode also gave us a GIANT amount of answers that really set up the grand scope of the movies. Jadis knowing what Belshaw was up to before even questioning her makes me believe she is three steps ahead of everyone lying to her.

Also revealing Mason is Major General Beale's son makes his character feel like he actually has a purpose. Perhaps he'll be the key to the kids escape, or maybe he's been selected to spy on Hope this entire time.

The possibilities are endless for how the show ends. The CRM wanting to be all that remains was a great reveal, but since that will clearly be a movie plot I wonder how much we will get in these last 3 episodes.

Here's to hoping for a great final stretch that will really make this season recommendable.

Nice

The acting and Tension in this episode was great but knowing there's only 3 episodes left and the ball is definitely rolling now for sure. All i can say is that Scott gimple said that Rick grimes won't appear in this show but who knows? Maybe we might see small traces of rick somewhere here or there episode 10 is bound to set up something for the rick grimes trilogy movies . Our patience/suffering is paying off after watching season 1 to many times season 2 Is going all out.

"Blood & Lies" Is Full Of Twists & Betrayals!

This show is ON FIRE. Seriously! The slowburn season 2 is really paying off and it's getting so good, so much tension! So much twists! The characters are all becoming so complex & layers, the side characters are also very compelling and we're finding out so much more about CRM! While Fear has become a chore to watch, World Beyond is something I look forward to watching every single week!
