“Bad Optics” is an hour of exposition and foreshadowing, smartly led by its subtler emotional moments.
“Spoiler: We Couldn’t Get Green Lantern” is a goofy, low-stakes detour for Stuart Fails to Save the Universe – one that offers a tantalizing, brief glimpse of something more.
“Split Second” is a kinetic, focused hour, even as season two keeps piling on more story than it can probably juggle.
“Halloween 2: Mind over Body” isn’t quite as revelatory as the original Two Guys and a Girl Halloween episode, but it’s a worthy sequel with a great Nathan Fillion performance at its center.
Lanterns’ 2016 arc comes to an explosive end in the tense, focused “Lights Out”.
“Spoiler: We’re As Confused as You Are” Gives Stuart Fails to Save the Universe the illusion of momentum – but it’s mostly cameos and recycled ideas.
A bottle episode experiment goes sideways for Two Guys and a Girl in the toxic, unbalanced “Sunday in the Apartment”.
Lanterns themes and story finally click into place with the fascinating, focused “The Weenie”.
Stuart Fails to Save the Universe delivers a dull filler episode with “Spoiler: Dexy’s Midnight Runners Get a Royalty Treatment”.
