I fell asleep for the last part of the show. Can anyone tell me what happened after they found his "lab"?

Fox doesn't allow me to watch replays for 8 days which is pretty stupid imo. Why 8 days? Now no one can see a missed episode until after they watch the next one.

They found a hint on the chalkboard about how and where this dude was trying to kill people, raced to the subway tunnel, saved a few people, chased after bad guy, bad guy gets electrocuted by the tracks and eventually captured.

No secret room or any kind of mystery at the end. If you haven't watched the episode at all there would be nothing missing in the overall storyline. Just a boring crime episode with lazy writing - I mean come on ... leaving your whole plan on the chalkboard?? It's like an insult to the viewers/fans of the show...

I liked it, but I couldn't believe the nerve they had in discussing the effing jail cell, and then not paying it off. It's now 3 weeks and counting. Bastids.

I also thought it was pretty "humorous" that the bad guy played a date rape drug rapist on Person of Interest, and that he was introduced to us as a bartender, who ends up poisoning people, by putting something in their drinks. Typecasting for the lulz?

The drop off was a drop off (.1), but it was a blip in comparison to the previous week's drop off. It looks like it's going to settle at a 1.8, and that will likely be low enough to get it canceled. I think there are only 5 or 6 left.

They could take a lesson from the writers of Point Of Interest. As they add new twists to the show as it goes

The S.F. Examiner says Alcatraz is filmed mostly in Vancouver, BC.

Sigh if this gets cancelled. I really like the balance they have struck between MOTW and meta plotting and i like the characters.

I agree that Person of Interest is a superior show using a similar variation of the Bad Robot formula however.

I'd like to see another season, as well, because it does have good potential, even if they're not hitting their stride yet.

I guess by showing 2 episodes together they are hoping to break the streak of losing viewers with each one

Her accent is the most minor weird part of her being on the FBI task force.

Yeah, me, too. It's good, but not great, but it could take off.

I liked this last episode. Normally, the MOTW part of the episode is slightly boring, but I found the character and plot interesting this time around.

I thought both new episodes were pretty good and I have pretty much enjoyed all of this so far. Juice was pretty badass in that last fight

I'm still confused about the Doctor though? He explains about the blood having some healing factor but what the hell is his story? He was around in the early days and is around now and he has to know more than anyone right? I hope we get full Doctor reveal episode sometime soon.
