Great episode. Liv punching Rita was awesome. Also loved Blaine singing and climbing out of the grave later. And Enrico! Awesome! Going to miss this show the next few weeks.

can someone explain to me the whole 'Chinatown' nickname? I couldn't hear very well when I watched that part >.>

Blaine was a relatively low guy down on the totem pole of Boss's operation. Was told he could have a corner, in Chinatown, to sell product on if he could keep it. His solution was to hire two Asian guys, tat them up with a blue dragon, and viciously kill a cop(? i think). The cops responded by cracking down on the rival gang in the area, the Blue Dragons. He used the cops to muscle out the competition. Which is exactly what Blaine is doing right now via the DA against Boss. Which is what tipped him off that it was Blaine.

Additionally, Chinatown is a famous movie in which the bad guys pretty much get away with it. Hence, the end to the A plot. Pretty neat episode.

I think it was that the guys assaulted the cop, and ended up slicing his nose open similar to what happens to Jack Nicholson's character in Chinatown. That's why he got the nickname.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Is it me or is blaine the actual main character of the series? So much plot armor.

I look at Blaine in the same way as Boyd Crowder from Justified. Started off as a villain for the season, became a supporting character. He's as important as Liv, Ravi, Major, and Clive at this point.

Something I've been thinking about: Do you think we'll ever see Liv's family again?

I find it interesting that when the Season 1 cliffhanger was all about her family, that thread got dropped early on and we haven't heard or seen them for about 90+ percent of this season.

Not really complaining, as the season has felt more than full enough, just something I realized.

We probably won't see the More family this season. ='(
A recent episode was supposed to see the return of her sibling Evan and her mom Eva, but “there are a few [storylines] that [fell] by the wayside just because we got so jam-packed,” executive producer Rob Thomas explains, adding that the final six episodes of this season feel “like going downhill on a roller coaster.” Unfortunately, that means the introduction of Liv’s dad also had to be cut. But Thomas says a family reunion “is certainly something that we think — knock on wood — we could get to [in Season 3].”

That scene when Ravi learns the barista never seen Star Wars was so good. You can see him die inside.

I screamed when Liv punched the shit out of Glida or is it Rita! That name drop by Major as he left omg.

David Anderson is just brilliant as Blaine.

The month wait is going to be hard given that promo with Liv rocking that new style hnnng

I don't even get why this one goes on break. If they let it run, they can air Containment earlier and have it build on The Flash longer.

Never watched that show, I just can't get over that he keeps getting away with things. Actor's great though, they just made him too evil season 1 that I can comfortably watch him go on unpunished.

Seeing that the show is essentially a re-skinned Veronica Mars, I think of Blaine as the Logan of this show...to an extent.

I love everything about the show and Liv is my biggest TV crush, she's just amazing. If it gets cancelled I will be Firefly/Jericho levels of upset.

I wonder if the Liv's family angle coming back in to play this season. They seems to have forgotten it after season premiere.

What a terrific episode. I think it may be my favourite one yet. The reactions, Ravi being Ravi, Blaine and his blonde "assistant", Papa Mars cameo... Everything was so damn good, but I think the better part of it was seeing Liv straight up throttling Gina. Offff. Who knew Liv had that in her.

Some quick jifs:

(Ravi, my man... that's just an open invitation to invite her to your home for some Netflix)

Extra JPGs just for those who missed Enrico Colantoni's cameo

And the ever gorgeous Kacey Rohl having the craziest blue eyes on TV


Probably not. See Post #717. Don't be sad. Here, have this.
Rahul's Twitter is consistently amusing.

That's seems to be his GF, btw.

Unless a show straight-up flops like The Messengers or Star-Crossed, The CW seems at least able to give (shorter) closing seasons. So it wouldn't be that disappointing as they could still wrap it up.

Both Ravi and Clive had their Hell No moments that were giffable.

So excited for this and CEG! I usually enjoy Jane the Virgin as well whenever I catch an episode my wife is watching.
 
I binge watched all of season one and two over the last week or two after watching the Fifty Shades of Grey Matter episode a while back and I'm completely in love with this show now - I'm really happy it got renewed for a third season so I can enjoy it live from now on!
