He Said/She Said: Damages review – 5×10: ‘But You Don’t Do That Anymore’

All good things must come to an end, and so Damages bows out with an extended 70 minute series finale that resolves both the McClaren case, and more importantly, establishes once and for all the distinction between Patty Hewes (Glenn Close) and Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne).

After delivering a largely satisfying and successful series run, does the series finale serve as an appropriate end to our beloved show? We break out the ever popular He/She said to deconstruct ‘But You Don’t Do That Anymore.’

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 – 5×08: ‘I’m Afraid Of What I’ll Find’

Things are wrapping up on Damages are we inch closer and closer to the finale. This week we cover a significant amount of ground – both about Ellen’s (Rose Byrne) fatalistic future, as well as whether or not Patty (Glenn Close) was truly responsible for the hit on her protege’s life.

Damages review – 5×07: ‘The Storm’s Moving in’

With only a few episodes of Damages left ever, we got everything but the kitchen sink thrown into this week’s offering. Even with every conceivable plot element crammed in all at once, the episode still took its time when it came to Patty (Glenn Close) vs. Ellen (Rose Byrne) in a highly-anticipated confrontation.

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

August 16, 2012 by tvangie

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.

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…
