But here's what I watched that wasn't Olympics related.
Rush Hour – Interesting twist giving the villain a
connection to Carter. Really well done
twists to the story, too. Definitely
felt like one of the better episodes overall.
Dead of Summer – I was one for two. I noticed that Amy hid her hand, so I knew
she was a demon. But I thought putting
the bones in the lake would actually be a bad things. Looks like it was a very, very good thing
after all. I’m kind of wondering how
they will fill two more episodes, however, because it looks like we are ready
for the final battle right now.
Scream – I was worried they wouldn’t fit everything into the
final hour in this one. What a
ride. Nice call backs to the second
Scream movie with the theater scene and the police car scene. But seriously? That’s the killer? I’m so bummed! Of course, this season does answer the
questions left over from the previous season and the killer makes sense
logically, so I’m happy with both now.
And that ending? I’d love to see
a third season to find out what that is all about.
Suits – No wonder Kevin doesn’t want to talk about
anything. Ouch! He’s in a true no win situation. Meanwhile, this subplot with Rachel has taken
a much more serious turn with her having a deadline. And Louis’s confession turned out to be much
better received than I thought it would be, but how he can be so focused on
that with the firm in such bad shape is beyond me.
Girl Meets World – Best line of the night goes to Cory. “I’ve been meeting the world most of my
life.” Love it! The episode didn’t quite go the way I thought
it would, but I liked it. It is very
important to remember that the capacity for good and evil lives in both of
us. It is way too easy to sit back and
judge what others do and not watch out for evil to hit you. Of course, as a Christian, I do believe that
the only good truly comes from God, but that’s a discussion for something
outside a sitcom or a short paragraph written about one.
I really like Rush Hour. I kind of figured that they'd use the characters as the gimmick and while it is the mysteries are pretty good. I'll be sad to see it go. I didn't get much TV watched this week but I'm starting to get excited for all the season premieres!
ReplyDeleteTonight's series finale was preempted for football here! I hope I can catch it on demand or online.
DeleteDitto me on the Olympics, Mark. Lots and lots. The distance ones are my favorites. Distance running (and steeplechase), Cycling road races, triathlons, equestrian cross-country.
ReplyDeleteI get a little bored with the distance events, I must admit. Since I've recorded it all, it is so easy to fast forward through it.
DeleteI confess I did a bit of fast forwarding too, generally if I wasn't familiar with any of the front runners they were following.
DeleteI watch so little television that I tend to just skip over these posts. I had NO IDEA they made a sequel to "Boy Meets World". Also, I thought to myself as I looked this up "How ridiculous to pretend that Cory and Topanga are old enough to have a tween daughter!" Then I realised that they actually were! MAN, I'm old! Is Mr Feeny in this? (Hopefully the actor is still alive)
ReplyDeleteCory and Topanga are the only characters from the original who are regularly in the show, although just about everyone has shown up at some point. Mr. Feeny was on just a couple of weeks ago, in fact.
