Through five episodes of Bloodline. Man I love this show. This season has been really good so far.

[Jordan#41]

Through 7 episodes of Bloodline. Thoroughly enjoying the season so far. Sad to see it coming to an end.

Agreed, just finished episode 9 and I fucking hated it too. Can't stand it when shows do one of those types of episodes. So damn annoying.

Exactly. Sopranos did it. 90210 did it. I'm trying to think of more.

You're welcome.

I just started myself. I'm through the first two in Season One. I had the same question. Season two looks like it has some shit episodes. Wanted to know to exact spot to skip and then pick it back up.

without getting spoilery if possible, what "type" of episode of Bloodline is episode 9? like a purgatory/dream type deal?

You want me to use a spoiler to answer?

[smokew11]

nah I got it. that sucks. its rarely ever done right

[Jordan#41]

Completed Bloodline. I agree episode 9 was a mess. But overall I'm satisfied with the way things ended.

The scene towards the end of episode 10 with John, Kevin and Sally all in the kitchen was phenomenal. For so much of the series I was underwhelmed with Sissy Spacek's acting but they we're all great in that scene. Satisfied that that scene was the last time you see her on screen.

Junior, West Wing

was the person you were talking about "turning bad" Leo? He's been kind of a dick lately. We're 2 episodes after the kidnapping storyline, and everything's gone to shit. In both episodes everyone was just kind of an asshole to each other. I'm guessing the president's mood re: his wife and kid leaving is rubbing off on everyone and creating a toxic environment. Leo just stripped Josh of his legislative duties, and Bartlett is on his way home from the tornado in Ok.

If it's not Leo, don't tell me who you meant.

No, I wasn't talking about Leo. something I'll say unfortunate does happen with Leo later on in the series, but it's not really his fault at all, I think you'll be very sympathetic to him.

The character to whom I was referring, the situation is absolutely of his own making, which makes it all the more frustrating. But I probably am kind of in the minority of liking the character as much as I do.

[OK_Ant]

I have one more episode of Bloodline and then it's over.

I agree episode 9 was an unnecessary stylistic change this late in the game.

Too bad the series got axed. Could have gone on for at least a couple more seasons.

Unexpected way Ozzy went out. I liked him.

i dont really know of any characters who i dislike, they all fill different tropes

the only one I can think of that I maybe don't like as much, but love him as a character, is Josh. Simply because he's the most arrogant character on the show. We just hit the point where he had a massive screwup so I guess we'll see

Stop at ep 9 of s2 and come back at ep 14. Windom Earle es muy importante and that's when he shows up. Doesn't start to get really good til around ~17, but it's important enough.

And again, skip EVERYTHING with James. A friend of mine is going through the series now, and she didn't heed my advice. She is regretting it.

yea Josh is probably the one who's pretty much picked as favorite character in the whole cast by a good portion of the fanbase. He's actually loosely based (well and in some cases not so loosely) on Rahm Emanuel. There's a thing, I forget if it's in season 5 or 6, with Josh of sending someone a dead fish wrapped in newspaper that Emanuel really did once.
There's definitely an arrogance thing with Josh (hell they blatantly point it out sometimes in dialog) but they've generally always balanced it well with him being charming and sorta goofy enough to pull it all off.

[Jordan#41]

Finished Master of None. Easily the best series of television i've seen so far this year. Really relatable for me personally.

ahhh yes! I still need to watch the Season 4 "movie".

In other news, I started Six Feet Under for the first time this weekend. Woo boy, that's a good show.

[BTCS_JTR]

I finished Riverdale the other day. Never read Archie comics, so I went in blind, but I enjoyed it. I enjoyed Camila Mendes more though. Swoon.

[Rodey]

Finally finished Bloodline. Still love the series but the last two episodes were slightly confusing and underwhelming. Think they tried to get too creative.

I agree. Felt like showboating. I did like the very last scene though.

What an unhappy family.

You will not find a better series finale than the Six Feet Under ending. It is absolutely perfect.

[FromTheMorning]

Never heard of that show but think I'll start watching it, sounds great.

yea I've never seen that show at all, but was gonna say, I've heard nothing but good things over the years about how it ended.

rather ironic now that Michael C Hall was one of the cast members...

[rconverse]

Good Lord am I in love with Heather Storm of Garage Squad.

Really? Better than BB or The Wire? I thought those shows wrapped up very nicely.

[TwoStep2888]

BB and the Wire are better overall series but SFU has the best finale
