Okay, deep breath. Now, shall we get to watch I watched this week? Heck, my first season finale of the year is on my list.
Once Upon a Time – Well, I guessed the lesbian romance
wrong, until this episode started. But
I’m most intrigued by Belle. Will her
plan really work? And what does it say
about her relationship with Gold that she knew he couldn’t awaken her. Will there be a battle in Storybrooke
now? Or is Snow White going on maternity
leave? (She and Belle were pregnant in
real life while this was filming.) Not
super surprised with the twist there, but I still like how it was done.
Dancing with the Stars – I always find it interesting when
they do the switch up. It shows us as
much about the pros as the stars. The
results were a bit more mixed this time around, although the scores were closer
than the judges’ comments were. But I
definitely think we’ve proved the deaf guy is the best dancer this season.
Supergirl – Love the season finale. Okay, so it wasn’t anything super unexpected,
but there were so many wonderful character moments it was just fantastic. Wondering what was in the pod for the
cliffhanger for sure. CBS had better
renew this show.
Castle – So it was Hayley’s turn for a focused episode. Very interesting and a nice twist on their
normal formula. However, the whole
Beckett dream thing? Not that original
or fun. Heck, Newhart did it better in
the 80’s.
The Flash – Well, I knew that we wouldn’t defeat Zoom this
week. After all, what would we do the
rest of the season. Still, Barry without
his speed? Again this season? And Caitlin kidnapped? This is going to be very interesting for the rest
of the season.
Agents of SHIELD – Daisy was the last person I suspected of
being the infected mole. I thought it
was Lincoln as soon as they said there was a mole, so they definitely got
me. This must have been my enjoyable
episode for the month, so sorry that the next few will be lacking.
Survivor – Tai is done.
No one will trust him now, especially with how that went down with
Scott. Frankly, that’s okay with me
because I never really liked him. But
who knows. I sure can’t second guess
this season at all, so we will see if the big alliance has the power or not.
Legends of Tomorrow – That was as much fun as I hoped it
would be. Meeting the younger selves
provided a few laughs, although the more serious moment between Jefferson and
his dad was the true highlight. And
young Rip killing the villain was a great touch. Plus they’ve upped the stakes on the mission,
although I’m wondering how they can possibly make this last the four episodes left
in the season with the ticking clock they’ve just put on things.
Big Bang Theory – I really figured that Penny would be
siding with Leonard now after having to put up with Sheldon as a roommate, and
as much as I do love their relationship, it was nice to see someone call them
out on it. That final scene was the best,
however.
The Odd Couple – Kind of saw Oscar’s storyline coming. However, the ending with Felix took me
completely by surprise. I love it. They seem to focus more on Oscar, but I’m
really loving Felix so far this season.
Rush Hour – Another fun episode. Characters are only so so, but the action is
absolutely wonderful and the stories are great.
The Amazing Race – Brodie, I’m rooting for you most on your
team. You are going to have to really
step it up if the rest of the Road Blocks are on you. At least they weren’t eliminated this week,
so they have a chance to start climbing back next Friday.
I have no idea what's going on with Castle and after reading your comments I'm pretty sure I don't want too. It sounds like they're tanking what was a really great show. I've been re-watching the first few seasons and had forgotten how much I had enjoyed it. I'm really enjoying Dancing with the Stars this season. I really like them all so I think pretty much every elimination will be kind of surprising but yeah Nyle is awesome. I'm liking Rush Hour so far. It's a little silly but I thought the mystery part has been decent and it's just fun.
ReplyDeleteCastle - essentially, the actress who plays Beckett, the female lead on the show, is not going to be back for season 9 if the show is renewed. Since Castle and Becket are married, it's horrible. (And yes, I should have tried to work that into my rant, shouldn't I?)
DeleteCrossing my fingers they renew Supergirl too. And I would think ending Castle would be a better end for them all, rather than limping along, guess we'll see.
ReplyDeleteThey were already limping along this year. A change as drastic as they are talking about making is just going to make it worse.
