November 9th's Weekly TV Thoughts

 Yes, Superman & Lois is missing from the list.  It was preempted in LA due to a basketball game.  And people wonder why I hate sports.  It should be airing on Sunday, so at least I'll get to watch it.

In the meantime, here is what I watched this week.

Tracker – Nothing supernatural about this one.  Or even remotely potentially.  Not to say I didn't have some issues with the violence on the screen.  Especially could have done without that ending.  Still, it was a compelling case, and I definitely didn't figure out what was going on.

The Marlow Murder Club – This episode definitely had what I was looking for in it.  The three women were working together most of the episode, and I loved their dynamic.  And the plot moved forward in some interesting ways.  Still want to see the connection between the two victims, but we are only a third into the story.  I'm very curious to see who the third victim might be as well.

Poppa’s House – I wasn't nearly as impressed with that episode as I was the first one I watched.  Just not as funny, and some of the jokes were in poor taste.  But I'm rather confused.  Did they really change the premise of the show in episode three?  We've gotten rid of the radio station completely already?  Wow!

Rescue HI Surf – I am glad to see that at least a few things are being resolved.  Or at least moving forward.  I felt like we were marking time with some of them.  We'll see if I feel that way next week.  Still not super impressed with the soap opera that the show is, but it is kind of what I expected, to be honest.

Survivor – Is it me, or do plans to vote out certain people not stay in place for more than a day.  When this episode started, we were looking at getting rid of one tribe.  But as soon as their preferred target was safe, they scrambled and turned on each other.  Not that I’m complaining.  Makes for great TV.  And I like the guy who is winning immunity.  I don’t want to see him gone, but I get why they would be gunning for him.  I would be, too, if I were playing.

The Challenge – Have a seen a purge before?  I don’t think so, but I could be wrong.  Really ups the stakes for that challenge, doesn’t it?  The heat seemed to make that mini-final extra brutal.  I was feeling for them struggling.  The elimination was quite inventive as well.  I was impressed with how well they both did at squeezing through the tubes.

Happy’s Place – I loved this episode.  It was nice to see them mixing up the characters who were paired up.  As show that can do that successfully has real legs.  Lots of laughs and smiles as I watched.  And some real heart warming moments, too.
