Nikita

[Max Vaehling]

The last two eps would have made a great season finale. Makes me wonder what they're going to pull off these next four. Just like the other seasons. They just kept outdoing themselves toward the end. Love it.
Pity about Sean, though.

Agreed 100%. Except, more than wonder, I'm a little scared. They are capable of anything in this show.

Spoilers:

PRE-FINALE EPISODES | “The return of The Shop (aka the organization responsible for Michael's new hand) factors in largely through the end of the season,” Silverstein reveals. “Our plan was to get Michael his hand back and make it cost something — which it certainly does… He essentially made a deal with the devil.” There's also Alex's continued unraveling to contend with, this Friday's major death and the big Nikita/Alex episode “fans have been asking for.” Owen/Sam, meanwhile, “goes on his own little mission” in the coming weeks, shares his portrayer Devon Sawa. “He's left on a cliffhanger in Episode 20,” so don't expect to see the ex-Guardian in the season's final two installments. (Oh, and you heard about that 'Mikita' shower scene, right?)

MAY 17 SEASON FINALE | Details surrounding the finale — which largely revolves around the “destruction of Division” — are scarce, but Silverstein does promise that an “emotional cliffhanger” awaits fans in Nikita's third season finale. “We have some pretty big deaths coming up,” he adds, noting that “there's one in the finale that I think is one of the most WTF shocks we'll have through the season.” Those who assume the goner will be Big Bad Amanda want to rethink their theory. “I don't necessarily feel the same way about [killing off] Amanda as I did with Percy [last season],” Silverstein notes. “The trick is to shift her into a new goal, because you don't want to do the same thing over again — and she does get a new goal near the end of the season. So, it's scary and exciting.”

I also have summaries for eps 19-21. Finale ep summary not released, yet.

What an ep tonight. Amanda's working with The Shop now! As Nikita said, if The Shop needs Amanda, that's a terrifying thought.

And Sam did something helpful. A little Owen left in there after all.

Ryan stepped up pretty badass, too. He's right, he's not the low-level analyst who had no clue how crazy the world really is anymore. That was 2 years of fire ago.

Thank goodness the President kept her word.

But I gotta wonder... don't they ever shut the door on their top secret, high security government facilities? Everybody just keeps walking into that place...

Well, Cyrus knows how to get in because he's Ex-Division. The SEAL team was prepped. Had Division still been at full function, they would've seen them coming, but they're not.

This really was SUCH an emotional episode. Even blowing up Division made me tear up a little. Great use of music for the drama everywhere. Even knowing they wouldn't kill Michael for good here, the actors sold it so well.

Gah! Why only 6 episodes for season 4?! This show deserves better. Deserved not to be stuck on Fridays. Deserves syndication. The finale-finale is going to leave me a mess.

With Division in the dust, Nikita on the lam and a shortened fourth and final season on the horizon, showrunner Craig Silverstein chats with TVLine about why fans should look forward to the “good stuff” ahead. He also weighs in on why he sent Season 3 out the way he did, the reasons behind Amanda’s never-ending survival and whether or not six episodes is enough to properly wrap up this journey.

CW's official season 4 description:

Season three of this gripping espionage drama saw Nikita (international action star Maggie Q) take over Division, the illegal black-ops program that trained her to kill. Working alongside her fiancé Michael (Shane West), her protégé Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca), and a team of covert operatives, Nikita vowed to capture all rogue Division agents and shut the place down. But she got more than she bargained for as Division’s corrupting influence began to tear her family apart. Even worse, Nikita’s nemesis Amanda (Melinda Clarke), set out to destroy her by teaming with the shadowy global organization known as The Group. Together, they pulled off a shocking assassination that promises to disrupt the balance of world power forever. And with the blame for the murder falling on Nikita, she is forced to come full circle and go on the run as a hunted rogue as she attempts to clear her name as well as spare the people she loves.
