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.

Such a fun episode. It had everything from action Episode 2 raises the stakes, deepens the characters, and delivers both spectacle and soul. It pushes forward the narrative while giving us time to breathe and care. It is an episode that justifies the excitement around the season and leaves you eager for more.

This episode is not essential viewing like last week's. It was an alright filler episode. Perhaps my expectations were too high after how epic episode 1 was. However, not all that much new happens in the episode apart from an extension of what was already clear in episode 1 - the 11th Street Kids are at rock bottom in their lives. And I feel like Vigilante lost some of his charm from Season 1 and is less funny. However Tim Meadows is a welcome addition as Fleury, all the Eagly stuff was fun, and episode 3 is set up to be much better than this one. But overall, this episode wasn't amazing.

A bit of a drop from the season opener, but it feels crucial that episodes 1 and 2 end as they do, with a full episode break between those events, so as to not rush things.

That said, hopefully the plot builds to more meat/stakes than just 'Peacemaker screwing around in a self-indulgent haze until an inevitable confrontation with Flag Sr.'

I can not wait for the next episodes. Man I wish it was a two ep premiere.

This ep was great. Better than the premiere. Agent Fleury is the highlight of this episode.

I hope it is building up to something epic. Gunn is teasing the last three episodes. I hope they are worth the wait because one episode per week is really testing my patience.
