Let's be clear here - I usually skip all the parts with battles of some kind in Star Trek. I find them annoying, long, not in line with my expectations towards peaceful coexistence in the future universe.

But this conclusion to part one was something new and totally lured me into watching every single second. You're there for action, for special effects, for dialogues. For music and great story. And for Seth & his crew to manage to put humour into that. I mean WOW, really incredible episode!

Enjoy it!

Only a week after I kind of accepted more family theme in Madam Secretary the series is back on track with good and fast-pace story, snap dialogues and wit humour.

Good to see Jay fully grown into Elisabeth's chief of staff chair, maturing Blake faced with real professional life problems and Daisy & Matt quarreling like in good old times. Henry in aircraft pilot uniform is just a cherry on a cake.

Is it time to officially start having a dream of Nadine deciding to support her former boss in a fight for a big chair?

Well let's be honest - that wasn't the wittiest episode in the series. But I think we all kind of agreed on the fact Madam Secretary had moved from political drama more into the territory of family show. And in this area the episode was just perfectly sweet with handsome Henry, beautiful Elisabeth and smiley kids (who in my opinion behaved a little bit to young for their age; but hey, the episode had to be sweet so adult kids are forgiven to behave like teenagers).

Plus we're almost at the end of the series so it's high time to set Elisabeth agenda for her presidential run in series 6. And it will be the mix of modern social care for middle/lower classes and liberal believe in democracy and its rights.

Those opposing last few episodes and screaming about liberal propaganda I say, calm down. Elisabeth has always been a bit lefty. And I'm not only talking about her support for LGBT. Maybe a few years ago you haven't seen it as it is always much easier to notice things in perspective. And right now you have a huge, tremendously orange sun highlighting the show and its agenda.
