The Musketeers 3.05: When explanations make no sense, when every answer's wrong

Ah, you find me still scuttling about like a mad thing, playing catch-up with my Musketeers reviews. Here are my thoughts about

Yay for carrots and carrot icons! :D

Feron creeped me out a little too much at the start of the series (I feared another Rochefort-esque unlikeable villain), but I've started to find him rather hilarious with all his sneaking about. Loved his jacket this week, too!

Grimaud seems like the lovechild of Guy and Robin out of Robin Hood.

I never saw more than about two episodes of Robin Hood, but you may well be right about Grimaud, now I think about it!

I am disappointed in myself for not noticing the carrots when I watched XD

I've become pretty swish with the pause button over the years, that's my carrotspotting secret. ;-)

"Stealth! Carrots" is the name of my next band.

I loved Athos' run through the streets of Paris, like, out of my way, people, I'm on a MISSION! And my tongue will be involved and I hope other bits of me as well, so -
And the way he carefully re-ordered his locks as he paused to think what to say. Don't pause for thought, Athos, just go for it! And he did. Sigh.

[ext_3729888]

Yes he did😁

[redscharlach]

I am here for Athos's expressing emotions through his hair. And through all the other bits of him, frankly.

I will have to rewatch to spot the carrots. Maybe it could be a drinking game ...

I am rather enjoying the machinations of the evil side this series.

[redscharlach]

Carrotspotting is a great game to play, but tragically there aren't usually enough carrots per episode to be worthy of a drinking game. Unless you come up with a set of other things to drink for, that is...

Do you know, I totally missed the appearance of the carrots so thank you for pointing that out! ;-)

"I love/hate Feron more and more each week. He has the relish a proper baddy ought to have, yet with a tiny seasoning of sympathy for the devil."

All down to the brilliance of Rupert Everett I suspect.

[redscharlach]

Yes, I feel I've underestimated Rupert Everett all these years. He's not always great, but he's brilliant in this.

[cherish4]

Indeed he is and I thought he was excellent in the scene with Louis in the crypt this week.
