Oh, so much drama. So much awesome. <3

Way too little Andy, obviously, but that was the only downside as far as I could see. Well, that, and Saskia being gone. :( But it was awesome that she went against Alice to protect and help Jake.

And then that fight between Jake and Felix. So goood. And it looks like that's not close to done - the promo for next week sounds promising.

Yup. Next week should be especially interesting... *g*

I'm going to miss Saskia. Maybe she'll be back later, who knows?

I want to know more about the ninja Andy is stuck with.

For the anecdote, the latest Librarians episode took place in a town called Bremen, so I thought of Nowhere Boys (for Nowhere Boys, it's Bremin, but it sounds pretty much alike).

From:

Same. I hope they bring her back somehow. She did prove to be on Jake's side in the end, so maybe she'll get a second chance.

I want more Andy, period. :p

I thought that, too! Until they showed the sign in the episode I wasn't sure if the name was Bremen or Bremin, but I was definitely thinking Nowhere Boys. *g* (Actually, there's a town in Germany called Bremen that has a connection to a Grimm fairy tale, so they probably picked the name because of that and because it's relatively easy to pronounce.)

Glad I'm not the only one to see parallels between my fandoms everywhere. ^__^ I knew about the German town, but not about the tale, so I went and read it on Wikipedia (link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Town_Musicians_of_Bremen) if anybody else is interested). And how cute was Cassandra flirting with all the ladies? :-)

It probably didn't help that I watched Nowhere Boys right before The Librarians, so it was not only somewhere in the back of my brain but fresh in my mind. *g*

I just posted a question on Jon Rogers' blog whether that was a reference to the city in Germany and the connection to the fairy tale. If you want to check for an answer, it should be up on his blog by next Sunday.

I know! I loved it that Cassandra was Prince Charming. So cool!

I didn't know about his blog. Well, it's not exactly surprising because I tend to avoid the creators for spoiler reasons (I'm looking at you, Teen Wolf creators, and your many spoilers and major character death announcements...).

From:

The TW creators are pretty douchebaggy, tbh. Half their season hints and summaries turn out to be wrong anyway. Season 4 is about Lydia developing her powers? Derek will be less likable? -- Are these people even watching the same show?! Plus, they tend to hype up the minor things or the WRONG things (wrong in terms of PR, as in what will not only draw people in but then keep them interested to keep watching, etc.).

Rogers & co are much better with the fan interaction and with keeping certain boundaries intact. I haven't seen anything that counts as a spoiler yet, apart from things from promos that are pretty much anywhere online. There are some additional infos on the episodes and you can ask questions about the week's episode that he will answer before the new ep airs. If you're concerned about spoilers, I'd suggest you read the questions and the answers post for the season premiere. That's pretty much the formula for these Q&A sessions.
