Chicago Fire Season 4 Finale Review

Hey People,

OMG I want that kid! He has to be the cutest kid on TV. Louie! Okay now that that's out of the way, let's get to the nitty griddy. I like lists so that's what I'm going to do.

Casey - I don't think Casey should run for Senate unless the Chicago franchise is willing to add in politics. They're already doing Law so it's not a far-fetched idea. Chicago Politics? It doesn't have a nice ring to it though. Maybe Casey can run for Mayor that way he would hit all 3 shows (mostly P.D. and Law). Just an idea people. But is it wrong of me to wish that Casey did sleep with his publicist or whoever she is to him. I like the drama and we all know I'm not so crazy about Dawson and Casey in the first place

Severide - I should add Kidd to this as well because damn someone is about to get cut. Kidd's ex husband is listening to them have sex. If that's not messed up I don't know what is. But in the ex's defense, he could have been contemplating how to get out of the situation. I know I would be.

Shades Of Blue Season 1 Review (No Spoilers)

Hey People,

I am not going to lie to you. I am not a fan of Jennifer Lopez and I'm most definitely not a fan of Ryan Seacrest, who is the executive producer of the show (He gave me the Kardashians and I will forever hate him for it). But there is something so good about this show that I just had to keep coming back for more. Let me explain.

Summary: J.Lo is a part of a crew of bad cops and she gets caught. The only way for her to stay out of jail is for her to turn on her crew.

At first I thought, I thought this was the dumbest premise ever or more specifically the most cliched. And even though it's definitely cliched, I still found myself watching the next episode to see what happens. There's definitely a few twists throughout the season--one that comes early and you have to rewind just to make sure you saw what you saw--but the biggest eye opener about the show is how dark it is compared to other network television. It's pretty dark people, like even the good guys aren't that good. Hell, by the end of the season I was rooting for J.Lo's character to screw everyone over.

Hey People,

Did you know David was awesome? I always knew. I knew the first time we met him, which is why I was so devastated when he was killed. He solved another tattoo so I'm hoping the tattoo that he solved is also on the puzzle or we'll never know which one he solved.

Weller is officially dating Siobhan Allie and Jane was right she is good for him, but now tree guy is telling her that she needs to get closer to Weller so she can be the only one he trusts. What type of plan is this? Tree guy and Jane have sex, but tree guy is doing it for love and Jane is just doing it for sex. Bet you she was thinking of Weller the whole time.

The tattoo of the week led our team to uncover a smuggling of chemical weapons out of the country. Good thing is the cans were caught in time and no one was hurt other than the bad guys. At least they were only selling to our allies and who knows how long they'll be our allies if Trump becomes president.

Reade is still heartbroken over his breakup with Sarah and Sarah has officially moved out of Kurt's apartment probably because she thinks he had something to do with them breaking up. He tried, but we all know that's not the reason why.

I can't believe Zapata is back to gambling again. Didn't she learn the last time. If she gets in trouble again. I will not mourn for her if she gets killed. Go look up the definition of insanity.

Luv ya,

Hey People,

S1 E17 & E18
E17
Flashback! Someone isn't dead. So it looks like Alex's father is still alive at some camp and her and J'onn are going to rescue him. Hopefully, they rescue everyone over there as well.

I think half of this episode was flashbacks which wasn't too bad because I got to see Dean Cain. I don't know if Alex and J'onn going on a journey means they won't be in the next episode but something tells me we'll see a glimpse of them. Lucy is now in charge of the DEO and she now knows Kara is Supergirl. Does this mean there's a chance for Jimmy and Lucy to get back together? Possibly. I'm glad she's back in the fold with the group again. I'm hoping she can become a main for next season.

And then there was Siobhan, who just figured out she has powers. I mean she had to accidentally go over a roof to figure it out, but all that matters is she figures it out.

E18
The Flash came to town! I knew The Flash would show up on Superigirl, but I didn't know how they were going to explain it. It was explained that Barry was from another universe, which is why Kara never heard of The Flash and his posse.

Siobhan became the Silver Banshee. It turns out that her family is cursed and the only way for her to get back to normal is to kill the person who enraged her in the first place aka Kara Danvers. Siobhan teams up with Livewire to take out Cat Grant and Supergirl since they're both protecting Kara from harm. Good thing Barry was in town. Although in my opinion, The Flash didn't really do much but get his ass kicked; however, Barry was a huge plus. He was funny, smart, and didn't annoy the shit out of me. First time ever, the people saved themselves and the heroes.

So here's my problem right. I was reading the comment sections and it turns out I'm not the only one who doesn't like Jimmy and Kara and think they have no chemistry whatsoever. I mean even throughout this episode I was thinking damn Barry and Kara have great chemistry. Too bad he has his own show on another network (big ups to Cat for calling out the CW). I also don't like this Jimmy version at all. He's suave and I just want nerdy Jimmy back. I talked about this problem before when I initially saw the premiere episode and that hasn't changed for me. I don't think many people are rooting for Jimmy and Kara to be end game. So far Barry, Winn, and Cat's son all have better chemistry than these two in descending order. James sucks plain and simple.

Now I thought we were going to get a glimpse of Hank and Alex this episode, but instead, we get Non initiating his plans just after Jimmy and Kara kiss. I'm hoping that everyone can forget that kiss even happened. And I really hope that the writers figure out no one wants to see Jimmy and Kara being a couple.


S2 E15 & E16
E15
Finale, Rogelio was saved from his stalker! And it was so cute how he didn't want to cry so much over the ordeal. Super glad Jane decided to stick around even if it meant skipping her engagement party, but this only mean to me that Jane and Michael are doomed together.

Meanwhile, Rafael bonded with his brother who may or may not be using him. Even the awesome narrator doesn't know the answer. Speaking of bonding, Petra wasn't bonding with the Frozen twins, but by the end of the episode she had a moment with one of them.

Alba got sexy with the bad luck guy. I actually don't believe in bad luck. I think the world has a way of balancing itself out, but believe what you want either way the Villanueva women have a huge ass pipe to fix in their bathroom.

As for Jane, she learned a valuable lesson. Not everyone is going to like you and to lose who don't tell them to fuck off. It makes you feel better when you say it out loud. Trust me.

I'm hoping the season starts picking up soon because ever since Michael and Jane got back together the show has been doing par. I used to look forward to this show. I'm nowhere near quitting, but I expect more from this show.

E16
Jane and Michael were looking for the perfect place and they finally found one with the help of their guardian angel Petra. Who would have thought that Petra would start being nice to Jane. Now Rafael doesn't have to bitch about Mateo being away from him.

Rafael and Michael are working Rafael's brother to see what he knows about Mutter. Xo and Rogelio are on better terms and we got to see Charo! Alba was briefly engaged to bad luck guy, but I didn't think he was bad luck because it seems he gets lucky all the time.

As for poor Petra, I don't know if she's leaving for awhile or if she's selling the babies. Okay, not selling them, but giving them up to someone else. Damn, Petra's mother is a cold bitch. The fact that Petra was packing up her suitcase makes me think she's leaving and just when Jane and her were becoming good friends.


S1 E14 & E15
E14
Zapata went undercover to stop a human trafficking ring. Like I always say, sex is easy to get if you have to pay for it, you're not doing it right. Okay, I don't actually say that but I should. Anyway, they shut it down and it just goes to show you that rich son of a bitches really should spend their money more wisely. Try saving the earth or something.

Jane pretty much sat this one out and because of that the tree guy had to send an untraceable email to the FBI so it would lead them to the human trafficking ring, which also happened to save a man from death row. As Zapata put it, the tattoos are helping. They would have never found those girls if it weren't for the tattoos.

Remember that phone call Zapata got at the end of the last episode? Well it turns out some other office was listening to her to catch the CIA douchebag director and they really want to know why he was so into Jane.

Weller still hasn't changed his mind about Reade and his sister and Reade and Mayfair are still looking into douchebag CIA director. So glad Reade got knocked out at the end of the episode. I thought it was the tree guy, but he was busy talking to Jane so I have no idea who knocked him out.

At the the end of episode, we find out that if Jane didn't cooperate with the tree guy (I really don't care for his name) and the people he works for will kill Weller. Well damn, that's not fair. Now she has to play.

P.S. Weller and Siobhan, I like it. I know I'm crossing different shows, but that woman is Siobhan to me and speaking of Siobhan, Banshee just came back and I have to go watch the last premiere for the show.

E15
I knew once we didn't see Cade's body that he wasn't dead. I don't know why tree guy lied. It only means Jane is still in danger. Long story short, Cade was part of the original group to make the tattoos but he defected once he realized the team was no better than those they were fighting against. And so he's trying to kill Jane to end it all because apparently once Jane dies so does this mysterious plan. But now we know a little bit more and so does Jane. However, they just took a huge step back because they now think Cade is dead.

Reade and Mayfair still don't trust Jane, but Reade now keeps his thoughts to himself since he got threatened by a mysterious guy who told him if he doesn't stop looking into the douchebag director that he'll kill his girlfriend (Weller's sister). Reade broke up with her by the end of the episode. It's really sad when the only part of Reade that I like is when he's associated with Weller's sister. I guess it's back to full on hating him again.

Hey People,

S3 E18
Someone is looking hot with short hair. I have to say, I prefer short over long; although I look better with long. Now Stef looks like Robin Wright and that's not a bad thing at all. She decided to get the implants, which is totally fine. #Boobgirlforlife

Jesus and Mariana were connecting with their biological father, but too bad he was left with Mariana and the cops stopped by and ended up arresting him since he was alone with a minor. It'll get cleared up by the end of this episode.

Brandon and Callie are still in love with each other. Please let your boyfriend/girlfriend go. It's unfair to them and it's unfair for us, the viewers, to watch these awkward scenes of you guys together. As for Mat and Mariana, just get back together. Yes, Mariana is a cheating bitch, but she regrets it until this day and let me just tell you that I've been cheated on and that person wasn't as nearly as sorry as Mariana is, which is why I dumped their ass. #LivingSingle (if you get the TV reference double points for you)


S1 E16
Damm, I almost teared up at this one (key word almost). We all know about Red Kryptonite and how it made Superman an egotistical maniac. Well the same thing happened to Supergirl, but the sad thing is unlike in Smallville, this will have long lasting effect on Kara's relationships. I mean look at Jimmy. He doesn't want anything to do with Kara. Supergirl on Red Kryptonite is equivalent to a drunk man--they tell no lies. This is what Kara really thinks and we all think bad things sometimes, but Red Kryptonite makes her say them out loud. I take that back she's not like a drunk man, she's like Donald Trump #MakeDonaldDrumpfAgain

In other news, Hank revealed himself to be an alien to help stop Kara. Too bad, I had hope he would get with that government girl. I'll still be rooting for them. As well as Assistant #1 and Winn. Even though she was a bitch what Kara did was uncool, which will probably bring out the villain in her finally.

As always Cat is the shit and she probably shitted in her pants when she was thrown off the balcony. I laughed, but even I have to admit that shit was crazy.


S1 E13
I am so glad that prick of a dick was the mole, you have no idea. Weller was the only one to believe in Jane's innocence, which is why she no longer wants to work with tree tattoo guy anymore. Mayfair and Reade are back to not trusting Jane because they don't know about her whereabouts the night the douchebag director of the CIA died. As for Zapata, she received a phone call from whomever bugged her.

In other news, Weller told Reade to end it with his sister because he doesn't want his sister to lose another person in her life. It's true what he said, but it's not up to him. As much as I dislike Reade, I think he's a nice fit for her, but what do I know.

Hey People,

Okay I'm starting to really hate myself. I thought I released this and it's sitting in my draft. Consider me caught up. I thought I would make it back in time from work to write the rest out, but that didn't happen.

S1 E11 & E12
E11
It's so good to have Blindspot back. I forgot how good it was. So Jane really is Taylor Shaw and she did in fact do this to herself. Can we start calling her Taylor now or is she forever dubbed Jane? How about Jane Shaw? We'll figure it out later. For consistency of this post I'll just keep it to Jane for now until the show starts calling her by her actual name.

The tattoo of the week led the team to a a missing plane and of course terrorists got their hands on the plan and were planing on disarming the US's GPS and our team had to stop them, which of course they did. While I think it's impossible at the angle that they were coming in that they would be able to land safely, I'll let it slide because it was exciting and it helped prove to the douchbag that Patterson is vital to the team. Man did that dude suck balls. He really is gunning for Mayfair's job.

In the end, what I said in my review was spot on. I predicted correctly and that's always a win for me. Jane will have to decide which team she'll help, which will be very interesting to see because we, the viewers, don't know if Taylor Shaw is a good guy or a "good guy" as in they think they're good and doing a good thing but they're actually just fucking people over. We'll have to wait and see and I can' wait. Bring on the next episode!

E12
Tattoo of the week led out team to a crazy militia that was experimenting on soldiers to make the ultimate soldier. Of course, our team stopped it, but sadly Weller killed the drugged soldier before he killed Jane. I agree with Jane I don't think he should have died, but if she wanted to stop him, she should have mentioned his mother before the fight even began. The good thing about him being drugged again is he wouldn't remember Jane lying to him.

Jane is starting to doubt if the FBI are the good guys. I don't agree that everything is black and white like Weller said and I'm hoping that his talk with his father made him realize that things aren't always what they seem--his father wanted to commit suicide (really sad but well acted scene). I'm guessing Jane switching the pens was a trust test (or maybe there really was something to the pen), either way she's in for it now. And it turns out she was in Orion as well, but she died. Is Jane a super soldier? That would make a lot of sense.

P.S. Loved what Mayfair said to Patterson about when it catches up to her, and it will catch up to her, it will only hurt more.
P.P.S. Reade is dating Weller's sister. He's a dead man.


S1 E14 & E15
E14
Supergirl was hating hard last week. She was hating on her new coworker and she was hating really hard on Hank. Poor Hank. He didn't kill Astra, but Supergirl thinks he did. Eventually, Alex is going to crack and blurt out the truth. Kara will be mad for a bit and then get over it because she's her sister. I would like this storyline to go another way, something different perhaps, but for now that's where I see it going.

Jimmy Olsen wants to come clean to Lucy about Kara being Supergirl and I have got some news for Jimmy. Telling her that Kara is Supergirl will not fix his relationship with her, it will only make matters worse, especially if she already figured out Kara has/had a crush on Jimmy. Girl isn't stupid, which is why I like her so much.

As for the lesson of the week, justice is justice and everyone deserves it even if you know they are guilty, which tide into the villain of the week who was executing escapees from Fort Rozz.

E15
I love how when Supergirl knew Hank killed her aunt she didn't even want to be around him, but when she finally finds out her sister actually killed her, she gives her a great big old hug. Hero's sometimes make no sense. We all knew the forgiveness was coming, but I wish they went the different route just to see what would happen. And it also wouldn't have made Supergirl look like a hypocrite.

Kara figured out she needs to DEO just as much as they need her. Stronger together people, just in case you missed it the first few times they mentioned it throughout this episode.

Apparently, Jimmy is in love with Kara and Kara is in love with Jimmy. Hope Lucy doesn't go anywhere. I don't know about you, but I am totally not rooting for this couple. Winn on the other hand, I am rooting for. Who knew Assistant #1 would turn out to be someone I like.

P.S. Wasn't it great to see 2 Supergirls in the same episode? Would have been even awesomer if we saw 3, if you know what I mean. I'm glad she's not dead.
P.P.S. Wasn't it super awesome to see the fort?


S3 E15, E16, E17
E15
Privatization is not always a good thing. For Justina to use charter schools as an example was horrible. charter schools are still public and if they don't meet their requirements the government can shut them down. If you privatize adoption, how would that fix the current problem of kids not speaking up about their bad homes? And even if a kid did speak up, then the government would have to get evidence and then sue. It's not as easy as Justina makes it out, but that's for Callie to figure out.

Speaking of Callie, she's moving forward with AJ, which is just horrible since they still have no chemistry whatsoever. Brandon is also moving forward with the mom, but as discovered in this episode, it's not so easy taking care of a kid. A kid is basically taking care of another kid.

I guess everyone is starting to date other people because Mariana finally went on a date with that jerk, who almost killed them in a street race. That guy is nothing but trouble. Go back to Mat, Mariana. Jesus also went on a date with Lexi and all I have to say to that is #whothefuckcares. I understood that Jesus was curious about his father, but when he wants nothing to do with you, I say move on.

As for the parents, Stef is recuperating from her surgery and everything went well. Stef and Lena are still good.

E16
Monte you are dead to me. It's one thing to try to get with the VP especially when there were mixed signals (that are no longer mixed anymore), but to kiss a high schooler, it's on bitch. That's definitely a line you do not cross and I can't believe she crossed. I mean I was thinking that this storyline might happen, but I tossed it aside because Monte has problems with boundaries, but I didn't think that extended to age. And I don't think the girl is lying either. She has no reason to lie since Monte has been helping her with her school project. I think it's time for Lena to become principal.

As for Stef, she's having issues handling her anger because of her mastectomy and it looks like Jesus is having the same problem because of his father not wanting anything to do with him, but they'll get over it eventually. I don't know if Gabe will serve a bigger role in the show because of he's a registered sex offender and his kids are younger than 18 and I don't think it can be expunged because he already served the time, so I don't see how, but you never know with this show. Maybe I'm missing something.

I have to say as much as the douche is in fact a douche, him and Mariana have more chemistry together than Brandon's or Callie's new love interests. I really thought the argument against Romeo & Juliet was really stupid. It was called a stupid play so I was saying to myself that if she thinks it's stupid than why would you think teenagers would follow it. Let's admit it, Romeo and Juliet were both stupid with what they did. Oh let me drink this and act like it killed me and not tell you about my plan. It is stupid, but I don't think there is a correlation with kids committing suicide because they read Romeo & Juliet. Just like I don't think games make people violent. If games or even plays makes you hurt someone or yourself than you were messed up before you even picked up the controller or book. So I'm glad that show will go on.

E17
I can totally feel the heat coming from the previous post. I wast steamed about the Monte kiss, but it turns out it wasn't Monte at all. I didn't even consider the fact that the girl could actually be gay. I'm ashamed at myself and I apologize to the fake character Monte.

It was Mariana's and Jesus's birthday and dang if I had a party like that for my birthday when I was younger I would have been legendary. Mariana is trying to get Gabe off the sex offender list so he can reconnect with Jesus and her. I guess Ana seeing Gabe made her think of the journey not taking and she ended up getting high. Hopefully, she gets back on track.

Brandon and Callie are just horrible people when you think about. I get that they can't be together, but no one wants to be 2nd either. I mean it speaks volume when they both meet with their boyfriend/girlfriend and they can clearly tell something is up between the 2 that there is unresolved feelings still lingering. How in the world does no one in the family not see it when 2 strangers can see it as clear as day? This will be a slow kill.

Poor Jude. I mean the fact that he didn't know that basically every kid learns about sex through porn just screams to me that he's either way behind or too innocent. If he was shocked about his search on porn, then he should definitely not see my searches (whatever you're thinking I'm not that kinky).


S2 E12, E13, E14
E12
I heard that Michael would be back in the picture, but I didn't know the extent or even how it could possibly happen especially because he kept his distance from Jane, but now it make sense. But what doesn't make sense is why we are going in circles with this relationship. If Michael and Jane are end game, then just let them be together no more other people coming in the mix anymore. I honestly don't care who she ends up with anymore, whether it be Michael or Rafael, but please let her choose and stick with it. I'm glad she shut the door on Rafael. It has to be like that sometimes. It's the only way to truly get over someone (when you know there's no way it could happen). Close the door and don't look back Rafael.

So Jane couldn't lose her virginity because it wasn't with the right guy and she needs her first time to be with the right man. Even though Alba didn't save herself for marriage (say what?), she wanted Jane to, but I'm glad she told Jane that if she did, she wouldn't judge her. Now Jane might possibly have her first time with Michael now that Rose is out of the picture and can no longer hurt Jane or Mateo. But with this show, it's never that easy. And how will Rafael react when he finds out?

As I said before, I knew Xo and Rogelio would break up. There is no compromise when it comes to wanting kids or not.

Petra and Jane being friends was everything I hoped it to be. They are friends with the fakeness and I love it. I hope we see more of them in the future.

As for Luisa, maybe she won't forgive herself over what happened to Rose, but then come to realize that she cared more about the detective getting shot than her ex dying. One can only hope. But I'm really going to miss Rose and Luisa's epic love story. I can't believe Mutter killed her own step daughter. Then again Rose killed her husband. This family is fucked.

P.S. What was on the disc was not so bad. Rafael being a gigolo is actually not surprising to me.

E13
"I've never met J.Lo" has never sounded so scary in my life before. I totally forgot about Rogelio's stalker in the last recap, but man is that bitch scary. I'm thinking Misery is about to happen to Rogelio.

So Jane and Michael are officially back on and Rafael hates it, but can't stop it from happening. He went directly to Petra when he was told it would be happening and thankfully Petra knew what he was doing and finally realized how much she was worth.

Rogelio and Xo officially broke up this time and in a way, Jane did chose to comfort Xiomara instead of Rogelio and that hurt him. It's hard to choose, but like Rogelio said, when you choose, you have to commit.

As for Lusia, she needs to go back to rehab and when she gets out, Barnett will finally take her out. Sadly, this means we won't being seeing Luisa for a while. Sigh, I wish she had a bigger role on the show.

E14
I think this episode would have been dubbed a filler for me if it wasn't for Petra giving birth to the Frozen twins. I admit, I still have yet to watch that movie. The shame. So Jane deals with the fact that she chose Rafael over Michael at one point. She really shouldn't regret those times. There was a reason she did it and I'm glad Petra was the one to make her see that.

Xo finds out that her mother wasn't a virgin before getting married and she was pissed that her mother was such a hypocrite, but they make up in the end and Xo was inspired to invite Alba's lost love, who apprently has really bad luck. But no one has as much bad luck as Rogelio who is still kidnapped and no one knows about it.

Rafael was sexing up anyone women he met, but now he's focusing all his energy in capturing his mother by searching for his half-brother, who is supposedly also not a good guy.

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.

Previously On Tuesday...

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.

Chicago Fire Midseason 4 Finale Review

Hey People,

Firefighter down! Firefighter down! This is why you shouldn't make fun of people because the next thing you know, someone wants to stab you for it. Looks like Freddie is going to end up in jail for stabbing Herrmann. Do I think Herrmann is going to die? No, but then again this show doesn't shy away from killing people on the crew. For a second there, I thought Patterson was dead after the truck blew up. I wouldn't have been upset if he died, but I like how he changed his tune about the crew and didn't take the glory for the save of the day.

Blindspot Midseason 1 Finale Review

Hey People,

Finally, I get time to write this one out. I'm late on congratulating Blindspot for not waiting forever and a day to get their leads to share a kiss. They are already a thousand miles ahead of Bones and Castle in that department.

We had a typical Russian spies as the bad guys for the tattoo of the week, but I guess David, Patterson's dead boyfriend, is what made this episode so special. He got killed and Patterson was driven to find his killer, which led them to the Russians, which led to some Russian spies dying. Patterson made Jane realize that when you have something special you shouldn't waste time not being with that person because before you know it he's gone. This made Jane go to Weller's apartment and kiss him.

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,

The Player Series Finale Review

Hey People,

I don't even know what to say to that. It didn't wrap up anything and left you with this big question of why Ginny has so many weapons in her possession. This show just proves to me why I don't like watching shows that I know aren't going to get a satisfying ending.

I'm not even sure what would have happened next because the player doesn't even want to be the player anymore since he has no reason to play if the house can't even help him get the info he needs to find his wife, who up and left on her own accord, but then was taken. I say who cares. If Ginny left because she wanted to leave, then let the bitch leave. Why does Alex have to find her? She obviously had tons and tons of secrets that she didn't tell him.

Tuesday, November 24, 2015

Previously On Tuesday...

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

Why I Quit Castle & The Blacklist

Hey People,

Castle
I did what the writers said. I waited and watched up to the 7th episode and if there was a pay off, I didn't see it. I don't even know what they were referring to. The sex scene seemed random and made no fucking sense. Let's take a time out from our time out just enough time to have sex, then it's time out again. If anything, the writers only proved that Beckett is a horny cop who likes to hit it and quit it.

Seriously, what did this episode explain? It didn't explain why Beckett thinks pushing away Castle is a good idea because it seems like in every episode, random ass people know that they're married so the whole keeping Castle at a distance for his safety is a bunch of bullshit. I can't believe the writers would think a sex scene would solve everything for us. To the naysayers, who are arguing that the whole point of Beckett's break from Castle is because she doesn't want him involved with the case still doesn't change the fact that his life is still in danger because she's still working the case and more importantly she chose the case over Castle. She didn't have to work the case. She didn't have keep Castle in the dark. She made all those decisions on her own and to me, I will never understand why the writers wrote Beckett like this.

I said that I wasn't afraid to stop watching Castle by the 7th episode if things didn't start making sense and I have decided that I will quit the show. Castle is still acting like a lost pup. I don't even know why he feels the need to win her back. It should totally be the other way around and I have no idea why other people aren't getting on Beckett for ruining her marriage. They should be just as befuddled as Castle is.

In the future, if anyone asks me if they should watch Castle, I'll tell them sure, but only seasons 1-7 or even better seasons 1-7 and take out any of the episodes that involved Castle's abduction because even that plot was worse than LokSat. It's just that LokSat has a greater impact than the abduction. Just act like the 8th season never happened, except for the the 5th episode. That shit was hilarious.

P.S. Nothing against the actress, but what's the point of Hayley? She's added nothing to show. Ugh, whatever. I'm done anyway.


The Blacklist
I said I didn't need to watch the fall finale to know I wasn't returning and I was right. I decided to to watch the finale and it was good. The show is getting better, the thing is I was having the same problem with this show last year. I didn't think it was worth coming back to, but I came back and I got an amazing season finale and I thought this season would be different that it would somehow change the dynamic of the show and it has in some ways. We still get numbers, but it doesn't automatically mean the FBI are going to arrest the person in the end. It could be someone that is going to help Red and Liz for the week. But I thought it would focus more on Red teaching Liz how to stay alive. Instead, she just follows him around like a puppy and I sometimes I even forget that she's there.

I swear, the only episodes worth watching are the premieres and the finales. Everything else is basically just filler and it shouldn't be like that. I want to enjoy watching an episode every week, but lately it's been feeling like a chore to me and I can do without it.

I compare The Blacklist to Blindspot because they both revolve around the same plot--mystery. We don't know the relationship between Red and Liz is and you would think he would have told her by now because I don't see the reason to hold that back any longer. If it was because of the Cabal that is long gone now since the Cabal has been exposed. So why not just tell the audience the reason? It's at the point of being ridiculous. If Blindspot was pulling the same stunt in its 3rd season I would be complaining about it too, but it's not. It's in it's 1st and unlike The Blacklist, I look forward to Blindspot every week, more so than I ever did for The Blacklist. It took 2 seasons to flesh out the characters on The Blacklist, while Blindspot did it in 9 episodes. You definitely didn't know anything about the other characters on TBL in 9 episodes.

What it really comes down to is my time is precious because I don't have as much time to watch as I used to (this is my hobby after all), but what I have come to realize is having such a limited amount of time each week has made me realize which shows I look forward to the most. The Blacklist is at the bottom of the list. Granted, if my time was more flexible, I would probably keep watching, but it is what it is. Bye, The Blacklist.

Hey People,

S2 E6
After watching the episode, I just needed some time to think what just happened because so much happened and I have to say BRAVO to the writers for making it seem so seamless with the time jumps. I heard there was going to be a time jump, but I thought it would have been an earlier and then thought I just read it wrong, but I guess I just didn't read when because it totally happened in this episode and it turned out to be the best episode of the season and may be the best of the series for me.

Jane starts graduate school and she has to balance her school life with her family life. To make matters worse, Mateo develops a flat head (didn't even know that existed). Rafael steps in and fills in when Jane has school work. She misses out on a couple things but nothing major like talking or walking. Jane also has to deal with Michael no longer being in her life. Speaking of Michael, he was kind of missing for most of the episode. He called up his ex-partner to help him find Sin Rostro and destroy her since he blames her for everything that has recently happened to him and after a couple months has passed, he just shows up out of the blue at his old precinct. I bet you, he's switched sides. It would actually be much more interesting if that's what happens. It would also give Michael something to do as a character.

Luisa was missing from the episode completely, but I'm pretty sure she's with Sin Rostro and is living it up with her. Oh Lusia, I should hate you, but I just can't.

Anyway, even though Rafael wasn't chosen, he still wants to give it a go with Jane. I was kind of upset because I really don't understand why he would still be pinning over a girl that made him 2nd, but he tries to start something with Jane again, but Jane keeps it real with Rafael and admits to him that she still isn't over Michael. Time passes and eventually he starts dating another girl, who also has a kid (man is going to have 10 babies by the end of the series). I was glad that Rafael started dating someone new. He needed it. But, all it took was Jane gaining a fever for him to fall for her again. Who knew Jane could be so bitchy, period. Rafael admitted to her that he still wanted to be with her even in her bitchy state. He wanted to start over and go on a date and because so much time had passed, Jane was willing to say yes to his proposal. I think this time will be different because Rafael and Jane are no longer in the fantasy stage. They have acted bitchy towards each other, they've learned to compromise (Mateo's trust find), and they have become good friends. I can't wait to see what's going to happen between these two.

Can you say twins? Petra is going to have twins. That's 3 kids and no sex for Rafael. That's blue balls to the extreme. Thanks Narrator! Her mother is out of jail and helped her get her husband locked up in jail as well as ridding themselves of those grenades. However, Magda lost a hand and an eye in the process. I can't believe they're turning that woman into a pirate. She's apparently keeping another secret from her daughter and to make sure her daughter didn't find out she had to kill the guy that they held captive before. I swear, Magda is nothing, but trouble for Petra. Upside though, Petra and Jane could be potential friends and most people agree that it would actually be refreshing to see them as besties. Yes, Jane has one already, but she doesn't have one that's a mom, which is something I think she needs. Speaking of friends, that gay guy who's gathering info on the people in Jane's life is up to no good. I'm pretty sure he's writing a book about her life and will just change the characters' names around. What a bitch!

Rogelio's finished with his telenovela. I thought I missed an episode because I didn't know it was ending, but apparently they don't go on forever like the American soaps do, but Korean and Japanese don't either so I shouldn't be surprised. Anyway, he pitched an idea to do a Spanish version of Mad Men and even though it wasn't supposed to be a comedy, everyone thinks it's comedy gold. Rogelio has done it again! This inspires Xiomara to pursue her singing career once again.

I didn't think this recap would be so long, but what do expect when so much time passes? Yet, it was so good and so well done that I don't mind to write it. Tonight will be the fall finale and people are already complaining how it will be one big commercial for Target, but I don't care. Someone has to display how crazy people get on Black Friday in America. People die! And seriously it's ruining Thanksgiving, so screw Black Friday and go enjoy the holiday the way it was intended--giving thanks to the people close in your life. Don't forget to watch tonight!

*NOT THE FALL FINALE TONIGHT*


S1 E9
Patterson's boyfriend, David, noooooo! He just had to die by the end of the episode, but to be fair he was trolling pretty hard. I mean, anyone within a block could probably tell he was following that girl. If Patterson didn't feel alone before, she'll definitely start feeling it now.

Weller and Jane go undercover as Mr. and Mrs. Smith aka a married assassin couple. A guy self-named Rich DotCom (I agree with Zapata, dumbass name), stole 2,000 names off the witness protection list and was selling it to allow others access to it. The guy was a total douche reminded me of another guy in the movie Ex Machina (don't watch it, it has a horrible ending). There was a total douche in that movie too. In the end, the team takes down the douche and recover the list. I'll just add in there was a great fighting scene in there too.

Jane remembers that she used to be engaged to probably the tattoo of a tree guy, but she gave the ring back for some reason. Let's not forget about Jane's curiosity of Weller's past with actress Trieste Kelly Dunn's character (If you haven't watched her in Banshee, I highly suggest you do. Great show!), who tries to start with Weller again, but realizes he only has eyes for one girl, Jane.

Zapata was given an ultimatum of either planting a bug or probably her job and she decided against the former. Good for her! She would have just been dragged down the rabbit hole further.

Tonight is the fall finale. Don't forget to watch the #1 new show on television.

P.S. This was a nice way for Jaimie Alexander not to wear the tattoos and I will allow it because it was an awesome episode.


S1 E4
Mama is coming to town and you got to love mama when she's the original Supergirl. Supergirl has always had it easy when it came to her foster mother, but Alex always felt her brutal force even if it was something Supergirl did wrong and mama was not happy about Supergirl coming out of the closet.

During Thanksgiving dinner, Alex puts everything on the table and tells her mother her true job is to protect Supergirl and all humans. Her mother reacts less than pleasant, but that's only because Alex's father also used to work for DEO and Alex's mother thinks her father died of foul play. Now the sisters don't trust the DEO and will find out everything they can on how their father died.

The villain of the week used electricity and she only got her power because Supergirl tried to save her and got electrocuted while doing so and transferred the electrocution to the villain. But this villain really brought Kara and Cat closer together. She'll still treat Kara like shit, but at least now she knows about Kara's parents dying in a "fire". Is that what they call an explosion of a planet nowadays? Maybe Cat will start to groom her to follow in her footsteps.

In other news, Jimmy came back from his trip with Lucy Lane and Winn is grateful that he has Supergirl in his life, since his dead is all locked up in prison. I bet you his father is a major villain in the series.
