(Now that I think about it, the last time I had a show end early was the final season of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. That's been well over a decade.)
Once Upon a Time – I did not see that ending coming. Just as Hook has finally won David over, his
past comes back to bite him, literally.
He has changed. David saw it for
himself. Yet that’s going to get in the
way of things for sure. Other thoughts –
when did we get Dr. Hopper back? Last we
knew, the Evil Queen had turned him into a cricket again. Did you catch the candlestick and the clock
in Rumplestiltskin’s home? And that
scene where Hook talked David out of killing the king was so powerful and so
well done.
24: Legacy – I still can’t quite see where they will go from
here. Like everyone else, I think our
main characters are on a suicide mission.
And one marriage is about to get very messy. Tony hasn’t done much – yet. I don’t think they’d bring him back for
anything less than a game changer. And
we are in the second half of the season and have yet to skip any hours. I wonder if that will change at all.
The Flash – Jay is stuck in the
speed force. Yikes! I hope they get him out of it soon. Of course, I knew they’d get Wally out of
there somehow. And I knew Jessie
couldn’t stay forever. The cast is
already about as large as it can get.
But Barry and Iris break up? How
does that make sense? The writers didn’t
quite sell me on that one.
Legions of Tomorrow – A night of
characters sacrificing themselves.
Plenty of fun with this riff of Apollo 13 before that happened,
however. Now that we have one part of
the spear, what will happen next? That’s
what I want to know. And the outtake/extended
take of Victor Garbor singing instead of a teaser for next week, too. I’m so glad he’s going to be in next week’s
Flash musical episode.
This is Us – Really? That’s the season finale? We hardly got anything on the kids as adults,
it was all about Jack and Rebecca meeting and their big fight. It felt like a letdown in so many ways,
especially since it was all in the past.
A separation and cooling down period, I get. I hope they don’t break them up but show us
how they work through their differences.
And Jack as thief? Sorry, I don’t
like that either. Easily, my least
favorite episode of the season. Hope
this isn’t a foretaste of things to come next season.
Arrow – I thought they might play
around with us knowing Chase was the villain for a couple of weeks before
Oliver found out, but I was definitely wrong about that. The conversations they were having with each
other were fantastic, too, as they were flitting around the truth out in the
open. What is Oliver planning to do with
his ultimatum on the Green Arrow turning himself in? Not that he can right now since he’s been
captured. I must say, I did not see that
coming.
Lethal Weapon – I was expecting
that episode to pack a punch, and boy did it ever. Definitely took that storyline and went in
their own direction with it. So many
great moments and so many great performances.
I’m glad to know it is coming back next season because I have to know
what happens next.
Survivor – Poor Caleb, out on day
9 both times. He seemed to have a good
attitude about it during his exit video, however. This isn’t the first time they’ve gone from
two tribes to three, but doing it this early is certainly unexpected. It seems like the tribes are pretty lopsided,
which means the votes won’t be super exiting next week either. And then the fireworks can start.
Designated Survivor – Luke? No!!!
I’m not surprised, but I’m still pretty upset by it. And the VP dead as well? I did not see that one coming at all. How do we go forward from here? And the First Lady is not going to be happy
about being sidelined like this. She’ll
understand eventually, I’m sure, but this is going to make for some good drama
as the season goes along.
