Beautifully done powerful episode. IMHO one of the best of all seasons. I wondered how they would take it from here and keep the intrigue, depth and complexity of story line and relationships on the level of previous seasons and they are off to a brilliant start.

Making full use of the years of history that have so intricately been woven between these well developed characters we are off to what looks like more superb writing, depth of interaction and fully satisfying entertainment.

Well done to the writers, the cast and crew behind them. A well deserved 10.

Sad to see some people find this boring. As one who is very tired all the silly tricks to try and pump up our adrenaline like Shonda Rhimes and her micro bursts of stills that made me walk away from 'Scandal' and trying to shock by pushing the limits on gratuitous graphic gay scenes that lost my interest in 'How to get away with Murder', I find this show very refreshing, balanced and intelligent. I like the array of characters and each of the actors that play them.

It is also great to have a break from being overfilled with shock and awe special effects and sci-fi silliness like 'Under the Dome' and 'Wayward Pines'. If you are looking for a TV fix to satisfy a need for high speed adrenaline pumping shock-treatments, this show is not for you.

For me, I find it vert well done and a perfect fit in quality entertainment.

I was so looking forward to seeing the return of Tony Shalhoub and did find Mary Winstead refreshing. I am sorry they didn't attach themselves to a vehicle that wasn't so vacant and unimaginative.

The best humor is always based on some form of reality, or at least on something conceivable. Ants surviving a 2800 degree meteor is just too silly and Jerry Louis level wacky for me. They may as well have parted the Atlantic and had the bugs crawl out from under it. Or, had ancient carpenter ants awaken from inside the pyramids and fly the Atlantic first class in DC-9's with 13 Scientologists.

The list of silly is endless... I am sure there will be many redeeming factors in time, just very sorry the beginning premise did not hook me, left me empty and for the most part un-entertained.

Had 'Monk' been based on space bugs I would have felt the same way. Nor would I still be enjoying the complete collection to this day. Hopefully this show will fade soon and Tony Shalhoub can return to something worthy of his unique and wonderful excellence.

I use to really like this show and make time out of my day to watch it, but they lost me over a year ago.

It just became too repetitive and predictable. 45 minutes laying out a dysfunction, a minute satisfying the audience with a few words undermining the nemesis and then a free trip to a fix-it farm.

On and on it goes to where all the problems bleed into one repetitive array of voyeurism about lives that are too negative to be of interest or true business of my own.

Beauty products and makeup sales along with the latest must have book tuck neatly into time slots to satisfy the entranced fan.

Phil has value, just a very tired and worn out format and show.

Julie Chen leads off each discussion with embarrassingly shallow and juvenile questions, as though she is targeting the uneducated and the best of mediocre Junior High students. Other than this the discussions do have merits.

Curiosity is why I tune in, self-dignity is why I turn it off. If well begun is half done, poorly begun is why I run, screaming for my life back.

As an Executive Producer, I am surprised that Sarah Gilbert puts up with this. She seems very intelligent and one would think she would also be cringing in her seat listening to such childish dribble.

Be-trail, face sucking, face sucking, be-trail. Oh, did I mention face sucking?

When extra bandwidth is available, I download options to see if they are going to be worth the viewing time. This is the perfect follow-up to the most painfully shallow Bachelorette season to date. Never have things been so bad that I could not waste my time tuning into the finale.

As a sucker for knowing the results, this was a time when anything was better than spending another minute watching this horrible chick and corresponding show.

'Paradise' follows suit and needs to be renamed 'Worthless Moments of Hell'

While Leonard Nimoy had a role on Highway Patrol in 'Hot Dust' (1957) and one on 'Dragnet' three years prior in 'The Big Boys' way back in 1954, his brief appearance in the beginning and end of this 1960 Bonanza episode holds dear to my heart as I watch it today on Saturday afternoon TV.

Leonard Limoy died at 83 just yesterday; February 27th 2015 and today's scheduled episodes of each Bonanza and Perry Mason have been graciously preempted with these early debuts. From 'Queen for a Day' in 1951 to Star Trek 'Into Darkness' 2013. His 62 year career is an American and global treasure highlighted by one of the most iconic caricatures ever played in the brief three year run of 'Star Trek' from 1966 to 1969 as the infallible; never failing; always effective; and oh so unforgettable; Dr. Spock.

..just as he spoke, just as he lived, may each of us:

"Live Long and Prosper."
