User blog comment:Thailog/Ep. 201 "Happy New Year!" discussion/@comment-5060113-20120428155522

My biggest problem with the time jump is how abrupt it was. Everyone came from last week's episode with certain expectations (which the show completely founded) about relationships (not just MM/SB) and who was on the team.

I was excited about new members, don't get me wrong, they just did it in a fashion that lost me. It was new member overload. I liked that the original members were introduced in stages so you could know who they all were, this was too many too quickly, personally.

And they got rid of at least half the original team with no mention of them at all. Not even an "oh artemis and KF, they're ______" While I am sure that I will at least watch the next few episodes, this beginning just doesn't strike me as the best way they could have launched this and while I am reserving my ultimate judgement and viewership, my frustration and confusing have left me feeling uninspired.
