If there's a big death in episode 4, it's either Amanda, Birkhoff or Sonya. These are the only series regulars not listed in the press release (if you consider Sonya a regular).
ReplyDeleteHow do we know there's a big death in episode 4? I think I might have missed something!
ReplyDeleteI am not sure either. But there is a lot of speculation that there is a big death in episode 4. See the comments from the previous press release: http://www.spoilertv.com/2013/11/nikita-episode-404-pay-off-press-release.html
ReplyDeleteThis is the penultimate episode of the series, and Alex and Nikita still aren't together? Just kill me. :/
ReplyDeleteOh alright!I strongly suspected there was a death in this episode (or even multiple ones) but I didn't know if it was a sure thing! Thanks!
ReplyDeletePersonally, I think Amanda and someone else will die. I will be so pissed off if Amanda ends the show without a scratch. Every character good or bad has been in a dire situation at some point, but somehow she manages to remain unscathed!Just the thought of it pisses me off!
I am pretty sure amanda will die but i will be shocked if it doesn't happen till series finale.
ReplyDeleteIf there Is death In 4x04 It will likely be Sonya.She's not a regural.And I think she should have gone already so
Nikita,Alex,Michael,Berkoff,and Ryan are core against shop.
If amanda were to die In 4x04 and Sam turns good so they can pair him up with Alex you have no recquable villains for finale.
I would love it if Amanda died before 4x06 because we're ALL expecting it to happen there, probably in the last 10 minutes or so. If they killed her before that, it would be far more powerful because we wouldn't be expecting it. (Granted, I might not have felt that way if Season 3 hadn't obliterated my love for Amanda... how how they've been writing her since then.)
ReplyDeleteWell maybe the shop is the biggest villain?
ReplyDeleteI agree that casting wise, Sonya is the expendable one, but logic wise, she was never on the field so she wasn't really exposed to danger until now, why would that change? Plus we all expect her to die...Killing off Birkhoff however would be a stronger blow...and also a bold move!
I am actually not reading this to avoid the spoilers but the titles of these episodes are just hilarious! Way to make fun of the situation writers, well done!
ReplyDeleteI know right ? don't like they are still separated... A team with Alex and Sam ? really ?
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's nice that they have a sense of humor about the whole thing. Shows the viewers that there aren't any hard feelings about the cancellation, and they were just focused on the writing the best possible ending (and appreciative of the fact that they got the chance to wrap up the show properly) .
ReplyDeleteThe way they're wasting Alex on this Sam storyline in the FINAL SEADON is ridiculous, but last time I brought it up, I incurred the wrath of "Olex' shippers who insisted they're actually the most perfect pairing ever. Sigh. I knew trouble was brewing when they kept writing in those ridiculous "butterfly" scenes between Alex and Owen last season. Fanservice at its best - or rather, worst.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Also, even though it's just a splitting hair thing, I would much rather say talk about "the ending" than "the cancellation". When shows get announced final seasons (or announcements early enough in the course of the season) I say it's an ending and that they're not really cancelled.
ReplyDeleteI guess. They had months to plan an ending, it's not like 90210 where they were told they weren't coming back for another season while filming the season finale, no less... (I wouldn't come near a show like 90210 with a 5-foot pole but wow, I think that was a pretty nasty way to treat a veteran show. They could've ordered an extra couple of episodes for proper closure.)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the penultimate episode of Alias, before the two-hour series finale, was actually titled "No Hard Feelings" and some believe it was for the same reason. Ha. :D
Ahah didn't know that. I've promised multiple people on this website that Alias is my next old show to watch and I am always coming across more reasons to that. Maybe I will have enough time by Christmas, since I am actually pretty well caught up on my shows this year unless the last two seasons in which I had piles of shows to go through during holidays.
ReplyDeleteYeah, as much as hiatus can be pure hell (especially with cliffhangers like Revenge's!), at least it gives me a chance to get somewhat caught up, hehe. I'm not even sure how to prioritize, though. There's PoI, my Alias rewatch which I've been neglecting, Homeland, and a bunch of new shows I'm debating whether to try out like Sleepy Hollow and The Blacklist.
ReplyDeleteI thought this was supposed to be the episode where there's the big emotional Nikita and Alex reunion?! Let me guess, the last 2 minutes?! Or just a phone chat?! Ughhh...
ReplyDeleteThe Blacklist is a must watch out of those for me. POI as well but you'll get through the blacklist faster and is SO worth it. I am still angry that this week we were left with such a big cliffhanger. It's THAT good! I also like Sleepy Hollow although not on the same level as The Blacklist for me, but it's a matter of tastes and I like it better with each passing episode. Homeland is a very different show than it's used to be. It's not a bad show, but it's far from the brilliant thing that it was Season 1 and Season 2. This week's episode did look the best yet from the promos, so I don't know - I have yet to watch it. But I would be fine with leaving Homeland for later this year. These are all just personal opinions though so you may feel the opposite later when you do watch all this ahah.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the Blacklist, but I do watch and like Sleepy Hollow. My type of show.
ReplyDeleteI'm really hoping neither Birkhoff or Sonya die. Had enough pain after Alex/Sean. I'd be so depressed about another couple being split up by death.
ReplyDeleteNikita and Michael must get together again and please don't make it last minute.
ReplyDeleteWORD!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's like they've forgotten that this show was *founded* on Nikita and Alex's bond. Now it's an afterthought, with the show having a much more conventional focus - romance. SMH.
For real. And we all know conventional = boring = lame.
ReplyDeleteA "5 years later" type of ending would be the worst thing they could do right now, in my opinion. But anyway, I wouldn't count much on it.
ReplyDeleteI do think there is a flashforward in the last episode...As I said in another comment, there's a "9 year old boy" cast for last episode, which could be an indication of a flashforward. Otherwise they would juste have given his name...
ReplyDeleteReally? Hmmm...sounds promising.
ReplyDeleteWell that's speculation on my part but I can't think of another reason to indicate an age and not a name...
ReplyDeleteI really hope you're right.
ReplyDeletelol "incurred the wrath of "Olex" shippers". i am a Olex shipper an i'm not mad at u. but i do like the pairing. i do agree we need alex and nikita together. but thats for the finale.
