Well Damages fans – we’ve only got one episode left until the series says goodbye for good. How did the penultimate episode fare? Did we get enough answers to set up an exciting finale?

Let’s bitch it out.

Damages review – 5×06: ‘I Need to Win’

This week on Damages it was all business as we focused primarily on the McClaren (Ryan Phillippe) case. Patty (Glenn Close) and Ellen (Rose Byrne) also put aside their differences and do the unthinkable: they work together.

Let’s bitch it out.

Damages review – 5×05: ‘There’s Something Wrong With Me’

Some significant revelations on Damages this week as we get closer and closer to the series finale. Thankfully, there are no new flashforwards to poor (dead?) Ellen (Rose Byrne), although we do get some interesting flashbacks (reenactments?) from season one.

Let’s take a closer look after the jump…

It’s back into the ring as Patty (Glenn Close) and Ellen (Rose Byrne) duke it out in round three of the final season of Damages. After having bested Ellen last week with the judge switch-up, does Patty lose this round to even things out?

Let’s take a closer look after the jump.

The Damages battle between Patty Hewes (Glenn Close) and Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne) is in full force in the second episode of the final season. Hewes takes round one as Ellen ends up shooting herself in the foot by playing right into Patty’s hands.

Let’s break it down after the jump.

Damages review – 5×01: ‘You Want to End This Once and for All?’

July 12, 2012 by tvangie

Damages returned last night for its fifth and final season. Looks like we’re finally going to get a long awaited courtroom showdown between Patty (Glenn Close) and Ellen (Rose Byrne). The reveal that Ellen might be dead would normally have been a Damages’  jaw-dropping shocker come episode’s end, but instead elicits indifferent shrugs because we’ve seen it months ago in the Season 5 teaser trailers. Is this poor marketing tactic an indication of a disappointing season to come?

Let’s bitch it out.
