A Man Is Only as Good as His Bird

Solid action scenes, (especially Eagly against ARGUS), much more character depth in this episode. Harcourt taking her anger out any chance she gets, Adebayo and Keeya having a little argument (Adebayo gets a reality check), and us getting to about Economos' struggle with anxiety. Fleury was the funniest character in this episode although some of his lines felt a little forced.

Why didn't anybody tell me Tim Meadows was in this show. Him popping up in the episode was a surprise to me beacuse I haven't watched the trailers and promotional stuff.

He was hilarious in this episode. I want more of him. Now I have to wait another week.

Nobody can can convince me Jhon Cena is a bad actor. He is so good in this show.

Overall great episode. Tim Meadows steals the show. Such great comic writing for his character and Meadows makes the most of it. His considerable comic talents really shine through and it's great fun seeing him used so well.

We are also reminded what an entertaining ensemble cast. Just like season one in immediately wanting the next episode.

I know a lot of people are going to hate this episode for being kind of slow, but i thought it did a great job of introducing the rest of the cast for this season. Probably the most i've laughed at an episode of peacemaker thus far. Seriously. Bird blindness? How does james gunn think of this stuff?

I will say i vigilante was funnier in s1, but thats really just due to his (lack of) screen time in this episode. He's still the funniest character in this show, hoping he'll get a good amount of screen time later but i also understand if he takes more of a backseat with this more serious tone.

To be honest, i wasn't a huge fan of harcourt until now but i appreciate her more as a character with each episode. I had kind of written her off as the basic tough female spy with little personality other than being cold to ppl and honestly i thought she was kind of boring. Obviously harcourt had more going on than that, but i felt like i couldn't truly be interested in her character until i saw where the slow burn is going. She is i am continually impressed by john cena. His acting was never bad in season 1, but his performance this season is so much more nuanced, intricate and heartfelt.

A whole strike team consisting of 5 dudes with basic ass rifles and pistols. They don't have nods, suppressors, helmets, or plate armor. Just blasting away in a suburban neighborhood with no decorum. If I'm going to believe this is the superhero equivalent of a 3 letter agency, at least try to make it competent.

Outside that the episode was fine.
