Previously On Tuesday...

Hey People,

I don't know why this didn't get released last week, but it was ready and for some reason I didn't have it set up. Anyway, consider me caught up for Tuesday. I'm hoping I can get all my shows caught up this week! Fingers crossed.

S1 E14 & E15
E14
The day they get computers to actually think is the day the human race is in trouble. That's all I'm going to say on the subject. Turns out the crazy ex did it, which is really sad considering how deep and to what great lengths the characters were going through to solve the case.

Now onto the important stuff. Rebecca was so close to figuring out Brian was behind the coats being switched if it weren't for Sands killing him. However, this only adds to Rebecca's suspicion that Sen. Morra is up to something.

P.S. I really thought for a second that the Asian guy would be Spike. Then we would have all the colors of the rainbow. Funny part is they are still bleeping out their names.

E15
It's Tiana!


I just had to put that in there. It's been so long since I've seen her and when I imbd her it seems she's been working. Glad I recognized her. 

Anyway back to the recap. Brian goes undercover with Tiana Lucy and ends up catching a killer who was part of a human trafficking hedge fund organization. Of course, Brian and Lucy have sex but did I get a hint of jelly on Rebecca's part? I thought I saw some gazing. Maybe it's just me.

Speaking of Rebecca, Sands did a real amateur move and tried to bribe Rebecca with money by working with Sen. Morra. She didn't take the deal and now she's even more suspicious of that Morra is using NZT.

P.S. I love how this show comes up with new ways to present cases. It's refreshing.


E9
S1 E9, E10, & E11
Will is an ass. I can't believe he resuscitated that girl. I seriously hope he loses his license. If that means he won't be in the show anymore, then I'm okay with that. I'm glad Natalie called him out on his shit. The love is now down the drain for those two.

Poor Reese. I'm glad she got the 10/10 from the hobo and I'm glad he died in a nice comfortable bed.

Rhodes will now switch from trauma to cardio and Choi is suffering from PTSD. Man is in great shape by the way.

E10
Will admitted he's an ass! The bad part is he kissed Natalie and she didn't cry or pull away. I'm totally not for them and think Natalie can do far better.

Did anyone else felt a moment between hockey player and Reese? I think the boy should come back to the show. Anyway, Reese decided that she doesn't want to specialize in emergencies, but instead pathology since in the emergency room, you patch them up and the patient can go back to what they were doing that landed them in the ER in the first place.

Rhodes is learning as much as he can from high Downey. He's high for a reason but still. I don't want Downey high when he's operating on me. I'm just saying.

Choi is still suffering from PTSD and needs to go to therapy. I think everyone needs therapy.

E11
Okay I will forgive Will for resuscitating that girl because he went after those parents that didn't vaccinate their kids. I think parents that don't vaccinate their kids and either their kid or another kid gets sick because they didn't should be jailed/sued for negligence. Something that can be prevented isn't because they don't want to put things foreign in their bodies. Well then what are doing in a hospital? If you truly believed that then you wouldn't take medicine at all. I swear people sometime. 

Natalie gave Will a speech about how she isn't there yet in her life, which means there is still a chance for him which I'm pretty upset about.

April's brother is back on the screen and he still sucks as a doctor. He messed up an ear infection because the kid was allergic to a certain kind of medicine. April decided that if she wanted her brother to be a good doctor she needed to write him up so he could take responsibility. I'm just waiting for April to decide to go back to school to become a doctor because her brother becoming one just makes it seem that anyone can become one.

Reese got a doctor fired from the hospital. Not really fired, but he's no longer welcomed back there for misdiagnosing his patients as of late. If your business is going under and you can't keep up, it's time to think of going to another practice. Misdiagnosing is not an option and I think Charles should go to another doctor. 

Rhodes and Choi had a bit of a confrontation, but to me, it's the same thing as not resuscitating someone. You take out his heart valve and when he starts crashing you don't revive him. Same thing except the only difference here is Rhodes actually listened to his patient unlike Will. Never mind I thought I was over what Will did and thought I could forgive him but I guess I'm not there yet (see what I did there?)

P.S. That flesh eating disease was all kinds of gross.


E14
S1 E14, E15, & E16
Chili is out! She got fired because she asked for help too late. Boden didn't have a choice so I don't blame him However, I am glad that Chili will finally seek help. Now the big question is will Chili be back or will we get a new paramedic for the time being. I hope its Rafferty. I always hope for that girl to come back, but something tells me that young boy who shows up in Chicago Med will come back. Never really took a shine to that kid though. I'm glad she called Severide. I forgot he went through his own addiction of drugs before.

Casey is running for office. I forget what office. Something I never heard of before. It must be one of those things that I just mark my political party to because I have no idea what the job is and don't know who the hell these people are.

P.S. Jimmy got knocked the fuck out! I couldn't help but laugh.

E15
Big up to Matt for not being a bought candidate and glad that Severide stood behind what Cruz saw. He's changed since the last time someone accused one of his friends of something.

There was a bit of a change this episode. Jimmy is the new Peter Mills and can dual in both truck and paramedics so now he's a paramedic and a new girl is on truck. It just so happens that the new girl is friends with Dawson. I'm actually glad there's another girl in the house that's a firefighter. Now I really wonder if Chili is out for good.

There seems to be another love triangle--Jimmy, Brett, and Otis. At first, I wanted Brett and Otis, but now I'm kind of rooting for Jimmy and Brett. I like Brett she deserves someone good in her life.

P.S. Did something happen between the new girl and Severide that Dawson isn't supposed to know about?


E16
Politics makes good people do bad things. I don't like that Casey made a deal with the devils, but it creates drama. I can only hope that he goes back on his word.

So Severide and Kidd (I like the name) had a huge misunderstanding. Casey thought she was single when she was totally taken. But the good thing is now she is single and I already like her so could this be finally the girl Severide and the audience agree with as end game?

Jimmy and Brett are making a great team together. I'm guessing this is a slow build until they get together and that's exactly when Chili will be back. DRAMA! 

Finally, Mouch had his bachelor's party. Even I was scared that it would be totally lame, but I had a feeling that it would be more like The Hangover because that brother-in-law totally looked like that guy in that movie. I thought he was going to drug them all.


Luv ya,

Hey People,

S1 E6 & E7 & E8
E6
There were just a bunch of deaths in the episode. It makes me think not to come to that hospital. There were 3 patient storylines 4 if you include Natalie. One little boy who got a death sentence--he'll die in 5 years which to him at the age of ten is a long time. It reminded me of One Liter of Tears. If you haven't seen it, don't. You will literally cry a liter of tears. A brother and sister who were stowaways on an airplane were thrown off the airplane as it landed. The brother died and the sister was taken after it was decided she was well enough to travel. Another boy was shot just after coming to the hospital for stitches because he fell off his bike. And finally, Natalie had her baby.

We learned that Natalie's mother-in-law feels threatened by Will and how close he is to Natalie when her son just died 7 months ago. I mean she should be. We all see this coming. Natalie called out his name when she was given birth. Sarah had to tell the parents that their 10 year old son is dying from an incurable disease. You know I kind of like this show for these subtle reasons. Usually, we see a doctor show where they have a patient figure out there problem and either the patient dies or lives in the end, but I'm glad this show took the time to see how hard it is for the doctor to tell the truth to their patient. We also get a little mystery in this show, which I was expecting. What did Rhodes' father do that made his mother kill herself. I'm going to go with a cliche and say he was sleeping with the maid. He was definitely sleeping with someone. I know that much.

P.S. I'm surprised we didn't see April's brother in the episode.

E7
Still no April's brother, but April did come to realize that all saint's might have just had stokes that made them so nice. Okay not all of them, just most of them. Her patient had a stroke that made him super generous and then he had another that made him super selfish. The mind is a crazy thing.

Will finally saw Natalie and Natalie's mother-in-law was super nice to him. Why? Because that bitch is selfish and wants Natalie to stay in Chicago instead of moving back home with her parents in Seattle. If she gets Will and Natalie together than she'll most likely stay with the baby. I am really hating this mother-in-law, especially when she's the fun mother-in-law in The Fosters.

Will also had a patient that almost killed 2 people on their first date, but the only reason he was hijacked the car in the first place was so he could go back to prison and get the state to pay for his treatment of cancer. Isn't that a sad realization? We treat our prisoners better than we treat people who haven't committed a crime. WAKE UP AMERICA!

To answer Rhodes question of do I think the couple on their first date would last, my answer is the same as his, no. They may share a death experience, but that doesn't mean they will have anything else in common. Speaking of Rhodes, him and Sam had a rough patch because she's bitching about the fact she can't operate for 2 weeks, but she gets over it by the end of the episode and they're back together. I really don't care about these 2.

Then there was the heartfelt patient that was waiting for a bone marrow transplant and because her brother was trying to do something nice for the donor, it was taken as a possible bribe by the hospital. Luckily, Sharon gives the go ahead for the operation even when she shouldn't have and the hospital doesn't fight it because who in their right mind would fight a girl who will have a life now that she got her transplant. End of discussion.

E8
I have to clear this up because it really bugged me in this episode. The VA has great service once you are in. Veterans that are in the VA say how great the service is. The problem with the VA is the wait time to get the service, but once you're in it's all good. That's what my problem with this episode was. It made it seem that the VA had bad service when it doesn't. The VA is slow to get in that's what the government needs to fix. The backlog is true but not to get CAT scans, but to actually get in. That's my announcement.

I can't believe that after only 1 month Natalie is back to work. In the US, you get at least 3 months of paid leave. So again, I say why the fuck is she back. That makes no sense and I'm surprised that her mother-in-law wasn't there or maybe she talked Natalie into coming back early so she can run off with the kid. I know, I know. I'm just creating more drama.

I'm shocked April is on a dating app when she's hooking up with Severide last time I checked. I don't know, I haven't watched Fire yet. But Sarah and Joey are cute together. I'm even sort of rooting for them. He even made the effort to get off the dating app. I wouldn't consider it cheating because they weren't exclusive. On the other hand, those 2 besties where one was pre-med and the other came in because she had Lyme Disease, well all I have to say to that is I'm glad the pre-med left her bestie because her boyfriend (hopefully ex) cheated on her with the best friend. I don't think she meant it when pre-med said she hopes her ex bestie gets a STD and dies because then most likely she would die of the same disease because they both slept with her boyfriend. We need to think these comebacks through when we say them. On a positive note, Sarah totally called it.

As for that daddy daughter relationship, it was all kinds of weird. I'm close with my father, but there was just something so off putting about their relationship. I'm glad it wasn't sexual because my mind was heading in that direction. Instead the girl made herself sick to get comforted by her father so her father wouldn't be so sad about her mother passing. Sometimes separation is a good thing and I don't feel bad about what the doctors did. They made the right call.

P.S. Why did Rhodes have to make tea? I hope that's explained in the next episode.

S4 E11 & E12 & E13
E11
Otis shaved his mustache! Finally that thing came off. He looked like Mario to me. This is just another step closer for him and Brett to get together now that Brett is single again.

Severide and that agent, really? I feel like that's where this is heading and I have to say someone needs to write Severide a steady girlfriend. I feel like his girlfriends are always random. Bring back his ex-wife. I miss her.

Herrmann is back! I wonder how long he was out because the man was stabbed. That's at least a few months to me but it seems like it was only last week. Cruz kept informing Herrmann about Freddie, but Herrmann just wanted to move on from the incident. Cruz ended up going to see Freddie and it was a great scene. Freddie apologized and I still don't think Cruz will forgive himself for letting Freddie in the house even after that. Time will tell.

Chili is not a psycho like I once thought. We finally know the reason of why she's been acting so weird lately--her sister died. I know she was very close to her so I'm guessing it really messed her up. I don't blame Brett for going to Boden, she was just looking out for her, but I hope Chili confesses to what's been going on with her.

P.S. Jimmy and Chili are officially over, but no one should be surprised by this.

E12
Did I tell you or did I tell you? The agent and Severide got together and they're ugh. Please give him a steady girlfriend even Mouch is eye rolling it.

The tornado that happened in the last episode was still an issue this episode. The shelter was going to close down because of funding, so Casey wanted to help out by speaking. They raised over $50,000 and not a dime went to the shelter. So where's the money? I hate politics. I really do.

Dawson laid it out for Chili that she needed to get her act together and Chili finally spilled the beans on her Jelly Bean. She was a CI for Antonio and Antonio got her out of drugs, but she just went back to it in the end and it killed her. Everyone has their own way of dealing with grief. I just hope it doesn't cost her her job.

Herrmann did the sweetest thing ever and gave Freddie a second chance not only for Freddie, but for himself as well. It gave him a chance to believe in faith again. I guess the call with suicidal kid (I'm surprised that PD didn't take this call) really hit him hard and I'm glad he met up with Freddie's father so he could explain why Freddie is the way he is. It was a tearful scene at least for me.

In other news, Otis fired Dawson to be in charge of his makeover.

E13
Well that was intense. It reminded me of Grey's Anatomy's famous episode of the grieving shooter except no one at 51 was shot or killed, which is probably why I didn't feel as emotional as Grey's. But I will say that it was still grim. Anyone who kills anyone for no reason always is.

Casey and that douchebag of a politician still have some business to do. Casey really should just go to media.

I'm glad the relationship or whatever it was with Severide and the agent is over. Felt no chemistry whatsoever. And I have to be super happy about Chili and Brett getting back together as friends people as friends. I didn't want one of them to leave, but if I had to choose, I'd choose Chili.

P.S. I'm glad they kept up with the tradition of the police vs the firehouse boxing match. Good luck Jimmy. I wonder who at PD will contend.


S1 E11
Was it just me and the fact that I just went to the dentist or could you not stop staring at the imaginary dinosaur's teeth either? I try not to make fun of actors' features, but his teeth looked a mess. I'm really hoping they were fake or he needs to go to a dentist stat!

Anyway, this episode was kind of fun and annoying at the same time. I really like and enjoy how this show takes a regular case and changes it up on you so you won't become bored with a regular case of the week. We had 2 stranglers huggers which Brian both caught. Quantico is nothing like Quantico that's for sure and that may be a good thing. 1 strangler was caught in the beginning of the episode and the other at the end when Brian figured out a doctor was getting paid for his research to cover up a rich guy's son's murder by implementing the murder in one of his patient's memories. Sick I know.

The real big story is Rebecca being very close to finding out about Eddie Morra. She's going to realize the coat was switched and once she does, she'll be that much closer to finding out about Brian.

Luv ya,

Chicago Crossover Recap

Hey People,

I thought it would be better if I did it this way since each episode from a show focuses on different things.

Herrmann got stabbed by Freddie and ended up in the hospital. They couldn't stop the bleeding and so problems kept occurring. Me thinks this will lead into Med.

Cruz felt bad inviting Freddie into the house and made it his mission to find Freddie. Eventually he did and Freddie was arrested. I thought the hunt for Freddie would feed into PD but I guess not.

In other news, Mouch get engaged. Congrats, I'm actually happy for this couple. And Chili is still fucking weird. Like seriously, what is wrong with this girl?

What a sick fuck! Who the hell over treats their patients? Not only that but kills them in the process by telling them they have cancer when they don't. I'm glad the shows didn't do a continuous storyline for the crossover, but instead took the approach of feeding one storyline and finishing it in another show, but then in that show started another storyline and continuing in the last show. It makes it seem more genuine and realistic.

I am also glad that we're starting to get a feel for these doctors. Will is an ass, but he's an ass that won't go behind your back and admits when he's wrong. April always puts her brother first and yes even I was surprised when I found out she was a nurse. Girl should be a doctor. I'm guessing their using Dawson's storyline on her. We already know Natalie's story. I'm hoping she delivers soon because I'm sick of her just being the pregnant girl. Although I thought April and Severide or Will and Natalie would be the first couple on the show, it seems that Reese may beat everyone to the finish line. Rhodes has trust issues because of his father constantly undermining him. And we still don't know much about Choi other than he used to be in the military. Let's not forget Maggie who's mom used to be a midwife.

We are making progress people.

Okay I don't know about you, but this felt more like Chicago Law than it did Chicago PD. Apparently another spin-off is in the works and I'm guessing this was a trial run (get it?). I liked it though and how anyone could complain about a hot prosecutor is beyond me.

So the overdoser and psychopathic doctor was proven guilty of all charges. This one hit closer to home since Voight's late wife was also the doctor's patient. But all it took was a slip up from the defender's lawyer to open the door to his previous patient's who never had cancer but were being treated for it for the jury to realize this man was guilty as hell.

There was also another story going on in the background Burgess trying to prove Roman's innocence by finding a gun, but it worked out in the end when Burgess and Trudy talked the brother into telling the truth. The most astonishing thing I saw was Trudy come out from her post. I only thought that happened on Fire and I'm surprised that we didn't get to see Trudy showing off her ring to everyone.

Chicago Med Midseason 1 Finale Review

Hey People,

I've decided to keep this one around, even though I'm still on the edge about it. We still don't know much about these characters, which is weird because P.D. and Fire are both more into the characters personal lives than their work lives. They still need to work that out in the show, but I've decided to continue because of the last episode. the movie theater shooting.

At first I rolled my eyes at the thought that now I had to sit through a TV show portraying it, but I liked the twist they gave it. It just goes to show you not to be so quick with a gun. But I didn't blame the actual shooter because he thought he saw someone with a gun and it was a really horrible prank. So I agree with the 17 year old boy facing the law for faking a gun shooting in a movie theater and the shooter getting nothing. The shooter couldn't handle the guilt/embarrassment of it all and committed suicide by walking onto incoming traffic. As for the prankster, he has to live with the fact that his donated liver was given by a woman who was trampled to death because of his prank. Death would be too nice for this boy.

Hey People,

Fall Finales for both Chicago Fire & Chicago Med tonight! We'll see if I keep Chicago Med on my list.

S4 E7 & E8
E7
No one told me an Everwood reunion would be happening on Chicago Fire.

Severide spent his suspension thinking of whether he should drop a bomb on the Captain's lap that would ruin his career (something to do with his youth days). But in the end, Severide just proves he's not his father's son by not using the dirt he had on the Captain.

Brett and Otis is happening! I'm actually more excited about this than I thought I would be. At first I thought Otis didn't deserve Brett because he was such an ass last year with the whole Rice thing, but I need a couple to root for in this show and I've never been a fan of Casey and Dawson and Chili and Jimmy are cute, but it's doomed since Chili doesn't believe in lasting relationships so I've decided to root for Brett and Otis. Can I call Brotis? Sounds like a disease to me, but I'll take it. This will definitely cause some drama especially if Brett actually does end up falling for Otis instead of Cruz.

Speaking of Cruz, he helped his brother's friend get out from a gang. He is just saving thugs left and right.

Boden is still being accused of assault and if convicted he could be put away up to 30 years when you include the invasion of the home. I didn't think Dawson would be down with conspiracies. You would think Otis would be saying all this stuff. Anyway, Dawson came up with a theory that Boden's boss is setting him up as a way to get closer to commissioner. The Riddler likes to control his minions like every bad guy. Oye, this is getting crazy.

E8
No Boden No!!! Someone needs to save him. Boden had been arrested and it turns out Dawson's conspiracy was not so far-fetched. She just got the wrong guy. It all comes back to the man who burned down buildings so he could buy them cheaper. Maddox wants to discredit Boden so he doesn't testify against him. Everyone tries to help. Severide went back to that snotty ex who's representing Maddox, Gabriel tried with her cop brother, but no luck. The girl missing is just adding fumes to the fire.

Brett was asked out by a guy she saved, but it's not going to last because he just screams annoying. You got to be quicker than that Otis.

Something is going on with Chili. Alcoholic perhaps? I have no idea, but the fact that she's lying about it and came in half an hour late to shift is doing her no favors.

As for Cruz, his little project of ghetto turned into fab may be coming to an end. The Captain put a clock to it.

We shall see if Severide gets his rank back and more importantly what will happen to Boden.


S1 E3 & E4
E3
I still don't know anything about these people and that's the difference between this show and Fire. Chicago Fire is more character oriented than it is work oriented. Since doing these recaps, I've never really had to talk about what happened at work, but instead focus on the interactions with each other. That's not the case with Chicago Med. All I can think to write about is what happened in cases they had.

It's not like it can't be done. Grey's Anatomy always focused tremendously on characters and work. They've always have had a great balance. But what can I say? I focus on the characters than the cases.

I will also say this: that 14 year old did not plan to save that babies life. I don't think she was aiming for the hospital and I'm pretty sure the baby would have died from suffocation in that bag.

E4
So much better of an episode. We got to see actual character development. 2 thumbs up! One guy is like the son of Donald Trump. The father even has his personality. The newbie is afraid to stick people with needles. The conflict between Haldstead and the pregnant lady is now over. It started with the pregnant case and one thing lead to the other where Haldstead said she needs to stop thinking like a pregnant woman. I think everyone knows by now the pregnant woman lost her husband, who was a vet and that the Asain guy is also a vet.

While I like that we got character development in the episode, I'm now starting to wonder do I care about any of the characters on the show and so far I got nothing. Here's hoping a find a reason in the finale tonight.

P.S. The musician losing her hearing was quite deafening. Too soon? If Beethoven can do it, so can she and she has the advantage because at least she can remember what it sounded like, but then again you can't hate on something you never had.

Luv ya,

Hey People,

S1 E1
I haven't added it to my list yet, but we still don't know much about these characters. 

Halstead is a douche, which is sad because his brother is so cool. The pregnant girl's husband died in the military. The new guy is cool and cute looking guy. And everyone speaks Spanish.

As far as cases go, there was a train derailment. Someone got new lungs, a little girl and her father at another hospital were saved, and a surrogate and a baby was saved by the baby's parents by making the right decision to let doctors operate on her even though it would put the baby in jeopardy. 

All in all, it was an okay episode. Everything wrapped up in a bow so I'm hoping it won't be for tonight's episode.


S4 E6
Severide has been suspended. He definitely made the right decision during the car accident, but he shouldn't be surprised about what the Captain is doing. No one wants their underling to show them up. But the Captain has to know that this isn't going to sit well with his squad. He is nothing without his squad.

Dawson and Casey are taking it slow, while Chili and Jimmy are taking it really fast, which makes me think it's not going to last as long as I thought it was. Plus, we already know Chili doesn't want any type of relationship so it really doesn't matter anyway.

Boden is in some deep shit. A crazy bitch moved in next door and she's already set her sights on Boden. She's the type to beat the shit out of herself just to frame a guy. Really sickening and this is just the beginning.

Otis, Casey, Mouch, and Herrmann went to a concert, but because the tickets were for backstage seats, Casey, Otis, and Herrmann left early. Luckily for Mouch, the guy who they saved earlier in a fire told Mouch he gave them the wrong tickets and Mouch got to be up close and personal to the front stage.

P.S. I can't believe a woman threw herself and her baby off the roof. That bitch is crazy. 
P.P.S. Parents, remember to lock your guns and teach your kids to never touch such a thing in their life.

S1 E9
Brian wanted a headquarters and after nagging Naz
for weeks, she finally gives in, but only if he can complete what he said he could complete in 2 weeks and that is catching the top 10 most wanted.

I'm not going to even mention the silly name he came up with to call his team, but they do a fairly good job. 6 out of 10 guys caught and 1 found innocent of the crime he committed. Naz was so impress and so we're the people in DC that it is now an official task force.

Brian had his family over to his big huge apartment and his father wasn't impressed at all because he knows that Brian is keeping something from him. So Brian invites his father over and starts telling him about NZT. I bet his father is going to die in tonight's fall finale because Brian can't keep his mouth shut. There's always repercussions to our actions and this one may jeopardize someone's life. Just like in Spider-Man

Luv ya,
