Jason Isaacs has been confirmed for the cast of Spy Duo, likely as Hart and Cavill's antagonist. Isaacs is indeed good at playing villains, as in Thor: The Dark World when he played Malekith or in Harry Potter as Lucius Malfoy.
Sarah era bella come un angelo in questa scena quando lei e Chuck lo fecero la prima volta.
I admit it was a nice episode, but i've been waiting for that wedding ever since Maddie said to Buck in ''Dosed'' "he's cute" in fact i would have preferred a traditional wedding rather than an impromtu one in the hospital, and Jennifer Love Hewitt in that wedding dress was beautiful as an angel.
What do you think is the meaning of the title of the episode about Christopher's death? The title refers to the girls who drove Christopher off the road, giving Tony the opportunity to kill him, but why do you think the episode is named after them?
My theory is this: I think the title's meaning represents fate. Christopher is a horrible man, he's done terrible things to Adriana and JT, he's been at risk of being killed many times, like in season one when Corrado ordered his death or in season two when Sean shot him. In the end, he was always lucky; fate was always on his side even when he didn't deserve it. But in this episode, fate was against him. Tony wanted to kill him because he considered him a failure and a potential traitor, he just needed the pretext, and fate, through Kennedy and Heidi, made Christopher get into that car accident, thus having to reveal to Tony that he was under the influence of drugs even though he swore he was sober. So Tony found the perfect pretext to kill him.
Instead, what theories do you have about the meaning of the title?
There's topic i notice no one discusses, it's been left in the shadows, but i think it's very important and worth a little discussion. In the episode "Chuck vs Sarah", Chuck sensed that she was deceiving him.
Everyone always says that Chuck didn't change even after he became a spy, his nature was basically always the same, but he changed a little, and that episode showed him that he had involuntarily assimilated the distrust of a spy. When Chuck saw the sunglasses in Sarah's bag, he sensed she was trying to deceive him. The Chuck of the first seasons would have made the mistake of asking Sarah for an explanation, trying to talk to her after seeing those sunglasses. Sarah, realizing her deception had been discovered, would have killed him. Instead, Chuck chose to be practical, remaining silent, waiting to see how the situation would unfold, observing Sarah and distrusting her.
When he and Sarah met, she had the power to manipulate him because Chuck was naive, but after 5 years of working as a spy he had become more mature, now instinctively he began to perceive Sarah's lies, the confirmation that he had partly changed and that his relationship with Sarah was more equal.
We've discovered a new detail about Ego's past, now we know that when he was a player, Fox was his coach, and they had different visions of the game
I wouls like at least one episode dedicated to Carter, to know more about his private life or at least his family
I would have liked to see Carla and Turk have other romantic relationship with other characters. If the script's goal was to have them get together in the end, there's nothing wrong with that, but it would have been interesting to see them engage in romantic relationship with other characters. I would have liked to see how other women would have reacted to Turk's immature nature, but also to his ambitious and competitive nature, and it would have been interesting to see how other men would have reacted to Carla's authoritarian nature, but also to his emotional and passionate nature.
I wish they'd gotten married and childrens only after having other romantic relationship. I see some in this community complaining thar Carla and Turk are an odd and slightly flawed couple, i gree, but perhaps this view of ours is due to the fact that throughout the series we've never seen them confront other people in love, our perception of Carla and Turk in love is a bit limited. As a couple, they work well, both in terms of their strengths and weaknesses, but perhaps putting them together in Season 1 and having them stay together forever was a hasty decision
In Season 10, i'd like Eddie to find a woman, not necessarily a woman to love, but even just a lover. Eddie's storyline has always disappointed me. In eight seasons, we've explored role as a father from every angle. If they do that in Season 10, i'd tear my hair out. He doesn't understand why the script never lets him develop. He becomes interested in a woman and then proves incapable of having a mature relationship, and everything comes back to square one, that Christopher must be the only reason in his life. In Season 9, Christopher was even called his "chastity belt". I like the father-son relationship, but Karen, Athena, Maddie and Chimney also have childrens, but they're more naunced characters. Eddie, with his role as a father, has become to one-dimensional. He has practically no private life. It would be nice if he could find a woman to have sex with and have fun with without necessarily committing to a serious relationship, at least he wouldn't always be stuck in the same place.
Thata scene in the revival where Lorelai feels overwhelmed by sadness while listening to Unbreakable is so beautiful. The lyrics are about how life doesn't turn out the way we planned it, and how we feel inadequate because of our sense of loss.
Lane hasn't become a rock star and works in her mother's antique shop, Paris is a successful woman but is always angry and is divorcing Doyle, Lorelai still needs her mother's money to buy out the Dragonfly Inn like she did for Rory and to send her to Chilton, she and Luke never had children and therefore she never had a seconf chance to be a more stable and mature mother, while Rory has returned to live in Stars Hollow because she can't find a job or a stable romantic relationship.
Lorelai knows she's made many mistakes with Rory as a mother, which is why she didn't want her to write the book in the beginning. She didn't want everyone to know the mistakes she made, the mistakes that transformed Rory into a 30-year-old woman who, unfortunately, hasn't been able to fulfill herself in life. In fact, Lorelai admitted at the cemetery that she'd tried hard create a certain image of herself as a mother and the perception she wanted people to have of her. The book, however, would have highlighted the many mistake she'd made, as well as provoking Rory over her relationship with Logan, which she can't seem to end, not unlike the one Lorelai had for so long with Christopher.
The song reflects the hopes and expectations that weren't fulfilled, many in real life end up back where they started or end up living lives not unlike those of their parents.

While i recognize that Hen is an excellent paramedic and firefighter, i sometimes find her character too childish. For example, in "Outside Looking In" she was unfair to Jonah Greenway, leaving aside the fact that he later turned out to be a psychopath. Even before that, Hen was unprofessional with him, attacking Jonah because she didn't want Chimney replaced, claiming that when she works with Chimney, it's not even like a job. I understand the affect for Chimney, but the professionalism that leads us to treat all our colleagues objectively without childish preferences is a job, not an amusement park.
In Season 9, she should have shown more respect for Chimney when she refrained from revealing her dermatomyositis to him. I understand that Hen was scared, but she could have shown more humility towards Chimney, who, as a captain, would have been in an awkward position if something bad happened to Hen on the job because she didn't tell her friend the truth about her dermatomyositis.
The fact that in Season 6 she decided to take on the responsibility of being both a firefighter and medical student was another superficial behavior, it is obvius that two such demanding roles lead to an enormus load of stress, and in fact in "Crash & Learn" she almost caused a car accident beacuse she was overcome by fatigue.
Hen is a woman with a big heart and in a great friend, but she is obsessed with control and sometimes doesn't seem to know her limits.
I've always found it strange that Tony never considered making Benny his successor. Benny was definitely one of Tony's most ruthless and arrogant men. I admit that when I saw Benny in action, I was even a little scared; you could see how cruel he was. He wasn't much different from Tony; he cheated on his wife, he was ambitious, and he was violent and angry.
From the pilot episode, Meadow was already aware that Tony and his friends were gangsters, but at first she was hostile to their lifestyle, even though she was spoiled and benefited from it. Meadow wanted to distance herself from the family, though she didn't hate them, she valued an education as something that would allow her to find a place for herself away from the Soprano family. But then we all saw Meadow become part of that shady system, even rationalizing their criminal nature by attributing it to the legacy of Mezzogiorno, to the point of choosing to become a lawyer defending the mafia.
Now, howevere, i want to list the four events that marked Meadow's moral decline.
*Scantino's car - Meadow had always known that everything she had was the result of Tony's illicit gains, but she always approached it metaphorically. Instead, the Scantino family car that Tony had given her because of the debt David had accumulated with the boss was too direct evidence of her father's criminal nature, and she had reacted very badly.Tony had always said he wanted Meadow away from his criminal world, and the fact that she criticized him for giving her a school friend's car would have been a turning point in getting Meadow to distance herself from the mafia. He acknowledges that Meadow had criticized Tony for immaturity and hypocrisy, but it was a starting point for what could have been a good developmental path. However, Tony abruptly thwarted that step of growth by threatening to kick her out of the house. Tony should have been proud that Meadow didn't want that car, demonstrating a glimmer of moral integrity, given that he himself stated that he didn't want his daughter living in his criminal world. However, for a man like him, who suffers from delusions of depression, this is impossible. Tony allowed his own contradictions to hinder Meadow's growth, "Tony father" should have been proud of her for refusing that car, but "Tony Gangster" couldn't allow Meadow to insult the criminal lifestyle he's totally devoted to, and so he forced Meadow to be respectful of his criminal role by threatening to kick her out of the house, and Meadow chose to submit. She realizes that she doesn't have the strength to give up the privileges that Tony's money gives her, even when confronted directly with her father's shady nature. Tony had once told Dr. Melfi in the first season that he didn't want his children to become like him, but at the same time, he wanted them to see him as a hero. Tony is too greedy and wants everything, not realizing that those two realities don't mesh. In the end, Meadow argued with Eric, taking her father's side, and Eric didn't want to perform with her at a talent show. Notice Tony's expression when he was told Meadow would be singing alone; he was realizing he was isolating his daughter.
*The relationship with Noah - When she was with Noah during her freshman year at Columbia University, Meadow had finally distanced herself from her family, even if only partially. She was dating an African-American boy, the son of a famous Los Angeles lawyer. Meadow was experiencing cultures different from the one she was used to, as she had always wanted, but then she realized it wasn't that easy. Meadow grew up as a New Jersey princess; her classmates found it fascinating that she was the daughter of a gangster given their low cultural level, but when Noah's father asked her what Tony did for a living, she embarrassedly replied that he worked in waste disposal. In the small world of New Jersey, she was privileged, but in a much bigger ocean, she was a small fish.
*Jackie jr.'s Death - After Jackie, her boyfriend, was killed on Tony and Ralph's orders. She had always known the DiMeo Family had plotted the murder, she attempted to confront Carmela, but Carmela, a woman who had now embraced the hypocrisy of that environment and was ready to defend their criminal nature, forced her to suppress any suspicions about the family. Meadow's hatred for her mother was evident, seeing how deceitful Carmela was, how she lived under toxic illusions. Unfortunately, Meadow had absorbed her mother's hypocritical and deceitful nature, and shortly thereafter, when Kelly Aprile made the same assumptions as Meadow, realizing that one of Tony's men killed Jackie, Meadow took up the family's defense, just as Carmela had done for her. Jackie Sr. was dead and clearly without his influence Kelly learned to see the hypocrisy of the mafia without being afraid to say it out loud, even Kelly admitted that if her father were alive she would defend him, in fact this is Meadow's problem, that is, that her father is still alive and unfortunately Meadow doesn't have the strength to betray him, even Kelly says to her "but what happened to you?"Meadow watched everyone happily as Corrado sang; those people had caused Jackie Jr.'s death, and instead of feeling remorse, they were having fun. She felt betrayed by those she had grown up to respect, and when she walked away from Tony, risking being hit by a car, saying that life sucks, her anger wasn't just directed at Tony, but at herself because she knew she wasn't strong enough to walk away from that environment.
*The final confrontation with his father's criminal nature - In the episode "No Show" we see Meadow's final attempt to distance herself from her father when she provokes him by calling him Mr. Mob Boss. She tried to anger her father by hinting that she knew about his involvement in Jackie's death, but she did it only to provoke him. In fact, when Tony asked her if she really wanted to know the truth about what happened to Jackie and if Meadow's father was involved in her death, she eventually gave up, knowing that Tony would tell her the truth, a truth that Meadow already knew but didn't have the courage to hear out loud, highlighting that her attempts at rebellion against Tony had always been false.
The first 3/4 episodes of each season are always concerned with a particular catastrophe, such as the earthquake in season 2, the cruise ship sinking in season 7, and the space trip in season 9. This time i would love to see Chimney and Maddie at the center of a catastrophe at the beginning of season 10, they are my favorite couple on the show.
Il confronto tra Bobby Baccalieri e Christopher Moltisanti rappresentava il cambiamento di Tony nel suo concetto di "vero uomo". Tutti dicono che la stagione 6 rappresenti il massimo decadimento morale in cui Tony è caduto, e sono d'accordo, ma ammetto che il cambiamento di Tony nel suo concetto di "vero uomo" nella stagione 6 rappresentava l'unico lieve segno di maturazione del suo personaggio.
Tony preferiva Bobby a Christopher, il problema era che Christopher non poteva competere con Bobby perché rappresentava tutto ciò che Christopher non poteva essere.
Tony non ammetterà mai di odiare suo padre, Johnny, ma nella stagione 6 era chiaro che stava elaborando il suo risentimento nei suoi confronti, ma anche verso Paulie e Dickie Moltisanti, gli uomini che ammirava ma che lo hanno rovinato. Christopher era egoista, viscido e violento, Christopher ora ricordava a Tony tutte le sue figure paranormali, che Tony odiava segretamente. Tony, d'altra parte, aveva imparato a rispettare Bobby perché rappresentava un concetto diverso di "vero uomo", uno che ricorre alla violenza quando necessario e non per abuso di potere, un uomo che preferisce la stabilità all'arroganza.
Filming on Spy Duo is starting in New Jersey. I wonder who the two actresses will be playing Hart and Cavill's wives. The cast hasn't been announced yet.
For the kind of movies, Kevin Hart is joined by actresses such as DeWanda Wise, Lauren London, Regina Hall and Danielle Nicolet, of good quality but not of first-rate Hollywood profile, whose careers are divided mainly into television series.
I had the impression that Carmine was one of the few devoted husbands on the show. We never saw him cheat on Nicole. We know he had an affair with her cousin Lorraine Calluzzo, but it was never specified whether he was cheating on Nicole or whether it was a relationship prior to mirriage. I ask because it was clear there was a sincere affection between Carmine and Nicole. In fact, Carmine was one of the few gangsters who truly put marriage and family before the mafia.
Could it be that Irving and Reghabi are on the same side? We know that Irving's outside was researching Lumon, and when Reghabi met Mark, she made him realize she wasn't the only one fighting Lumon, she was collaborating with others. Perhaps Irving and Reghabi are secretly working together.
Sarah and Bryce's desire to distance Chuck from CIA and his spy life in often told only from their perspective, and I know they meant well, but it was partly the wrong thing to do, and i want to explain why.
Bryce and Sarah were two manipulative persons with no friends. They didn't want Chuck to become a spy because they wanted to protect his innocence, the innocence thet Bryce and Sarah had lost. But the Chuck they wanted to protect wasn't the real one, but the one they had idealized. For a long time, neither Sarah no Bryce had known the real Chuck. Bryce had met the "Chuck of Standford", an innocent and kid boy, but he wasn't the real Chuck, he was simply a boy still developing and finding his own path. Sarah, on the other hand, had initially met the "Chuck of Buy More", altruistic and innocent, but that too wasn't the real Chuck, but merely a version of him that Bryce had sabotaged, preventing him from becoming a successful man.
Many schools of thought maintain that a man's true identity is the result of his own moral convictions, which, however, are confronted and changed by facing the outside world. What Bryce and Sarah were doing, though well-intentioned, was wrong, they wanted to keep Chuck locked away and protect his purity. The "good guy", however in only a metaphorical character, Chuck is a man, and like everyone else, he has his ego, his hypocrisy, his ambitions and his aggressiveness. Whether it was right or wrong were aspects of his character he had to learn to understand.
Bryce entrusted Chuck with the Intersect to protect the supercomputer from Fulcrum, but in "Chuck vs the Nemesis" he admitted he did it because he knew Sarah would protect him. Bryce loved Chuck, but he didn't entrust him with the Intersect because he considered him a real man he could trust, he just wanted Sarah to protect him as if Chuck were a child. In fact in "Chuck vs the Nemesis" Bryce admitted he was surprised when Sarah told him about the amazing things Chuck had accomplished since working with her and Casey. He realized Chuck wasn't defenseless child, and that he had actually taken part in missions, proving his courage. In that conversation with Chuck at Bay More, you could see a hint of Bryce's remorse. He realized that perhaps giving Chuck a chance at Standford so the CIA could recruit him wasn't entirely wrong.
The real Chuck is the one who saved Sarah from Shaw in Paris. He's not an arrogant killer, but he shot Shaw to save the woman he loved, facing a spy stronger than him. In season 3 Sarah was horrified by Chuck's behavior, the lies he told Hannah, his having Manush arrested, his taking Laudanol to save Kathleen, and his pulling Casey's tooth while pretending to be Rafe Gruber. But these were steps along a journey Chuck had to take to test himself and find his true identity.
When Bryce dead and Chuck didn't know what to do with the Intersect 2.0 he thought about when Bryce told Fleming that Chuck couldn't be a spy. Chuck realized in that moment that he had to prove himself wrong, and in fact he downloded the Intersect 2.0 into his brain and became a spy. Chuck had to become what Bryce hoped he wouldn't turn into because in was necessary to save Sarah and Casey from Miles. A similar scene in Paris, on the bridge, Sarah before passing out, watches Chuck lower the gun. Sarah left guilty, in fact, hel look said "It's my fault, Chuck isn't shooting because i made him believe that if he became a murderer, i wouldn't be able to love him, and now Shaw will kill both me and Chuck". Instead, Chuck shot Shaw, facing his fear that Sarah didn't love him. Luckily, Sarah forgave him. The different in the that Bryce died believing that Chuck should remain an innocent boy, while Sarah lived long enough to understand that Chuck had to change to become the best version of himself.
The lesson is that loving someone doesn't mean forcing them to live up to your expectations. Sarah and Bryce loved Chuck but he shouldn't reflect their expectations, but rather allow him to find his own identity. Respecting someone doesn't mean seeking their approval by sacrificing yourself. Chuck respected both Bryce and Sarah, but that doesn't mean he had to go against himself to meet their expectations.
