I had a feeling this was going to be Kalinda's final episode which is why it pisses me off there couldn't have a scene with her and Alicia in the same room for this occasion. It's unforgivable.
I am so pissed at the King's...the one thing that fans of this show wanted was one final face to face scene with Kalinda and Alicia. I don't know about anyone else but I took this like a slap across the face. I have been so loyal to this show and not giving one final face to face good bye between those two is just wrong.
This episode was a mess. The misunderstanding plot was utterly pointless and the court case was resolved in such a stupid way - how would that little piece of info have escaped everyone's attention until that point?
The Kalinda/Bishop storyline has outstayed its welcome for weeks for me but maybe I'm alone in feeling that way. Plus it is obvious that either Kalinda or Cary is involved in betraying Bishop so why would he let both of them live if he is really as scary as we have been told.
They came so close too! They haven't shared a scene together since Season 4 Episode 14, and literally every fan wanted that to happen one last time. Goddamn it.
Midnight, I just rewatched the episode again and I feel twice as pissed this time around. I have always been a fan of Julianna so these feelings do not reflect her. This show has had so many OMG brilliant moments and that is why this episode was such a let down. I mean, no one knew that Josh was leaving the show and the fact that it was such a surprise felt genuine and organic. While it blind sided us, it was also proof that the writers (including the King's) had respect for us. We all knew that Archie was leaving the show after this season and for the majority, we expected her exit to be so much more impactful. Alicia and Kalinda had been through so many ups and downs and personally, their friendship was my favorite (even more than Alicia and Will). The whole Kalinda being in Alicia's apartment while Alicia was hashing things out with Diane was in such poor taste. It was as if the writers dangled the possibility of an onscreen reunion between them only to let us down yet again. Will I still watch the show if there is another season? I will but the disappointment will linger.
Now where is Kalinda going to go? Is she just going to disappear or do you think they'll find her body at the end of the next episode? I hope not. In my mind she's going to use Agent Lana's FBI contacts and enter witness protection or something like that. No idea though. I really Kalinda and Alicia had a scene together before the end though. That episode felt like a bit of a cop out

First McDreamy now Kalinda.....I can't take it anymore....

ReplyDeleteHmmm....I am just not that invested in either character to take anything that the show decides personally.....
ReplyDeleteI feel really bad for Alicia....I hope another bigger and better firm hires her.
Serioulsy, Cary went to jail....and they kept him.....

ReplyDeleteI agree with pretty much everything you said. HOWEVER, SPOILER BUT OF THE GOOD KIND:
ReplyDeleteKalinda is returning for the season finale! Her story isn't quite over just yet.
I'm heartbroken :(
