You're right. And everyone who loves the show knows you're right.

The promos are trying to appeal to new fans. Just like how they keep re-explaining Rimbaldi again and again and again.

The same Doors song, Riders on The Storm, was also used in the episode of Invasion that aired the same night as this one (on the same network no less). I'm surprised neither thread mentioned it.

I didn't recognize anyone.


I love how Jack called the kitchen knives "sharp weapons". And then the babysitters in suits w/ all of their gear in attache cases.

Nice to see Will again, even though he uttered the saving the world every day line.

Glad we won't see anymore of Gina Torres - I've never cared for her, especially when she uses that horrible accent.

One of the babysitters was the bulemic cop from "Starved" right?

Dont care how replayed plot lines are, or how they dont make sense, this show is one of the best ever on TV and I will miss it when it is gone! I love Jenny Gardner playing Sydney, Jack is BADASS, and Marshall is the best. Now once Vaughn is back and Nadia is cured, imagine the one big happy family barbque that could be...except for Sloane, cuz I hope he gets his head blown off before the ending.

I WILL MISS THIS SHOW!

I don't think ABC will be getting too many newbies to the show at this late date.

I'm a huge Gina Torres fan, but liked her work better this past season on "The Shield". That accent IS horrible.

Although I didn't care much for the accent, I did like Gina Torres as Anna so I will definitely miss her. But I do agree she was much better in The Shield.

Gina Torres was in the audience of the View yesterday. Her husband Laurence Fishburne was a guest promoting Akelah and the Bee and they asked her if she was jealous of the great chemistry he has with Angela Bassett. Gina just said she's the one who gets to go home with him. They make a very attractive couple.

Actually, I liked her the most on Cleo 2525, followed closely by The Shield. Firefly was good. I don't remember her on Angel.
