April 18th's Weekly TV Thoughts

Wild Cards – I think I’m more amazes by all the details they had worked into earlier episodes this season than I am the actual con.  Well, there is the surprise that they were smuggling out a who rather than a what.  Yes, I did see at least some of the random coincidences, and the way they justified everything at the end was extremely convenient.  But still, I enjoyed it all very much.  As to that cliffhanger?  Saw it coming fairly early.  I’m curious where they will go with it next season.  I just how the CW airs it as well.

The Quiz with Balls – I would have gotten that first question wrong myself.  I wasn’t paying close enough attention to the scores, I guess, and I was shocked with which team won.  Glad the show is back.

RJ Decker – I felt like I missed something – since when was RJ working for a supermarket?  I get it, they needed him there for the rest of the plot, but it felt more like something from old school TV where continuity didn’t matter.  The mystery was okay.  I felt like they were trying a little too hard to be clever.  But I’m curious where they are going with the ending.

Survivor – Coach is gone!!!  That was quite a twist.  I know I didn’t vote for that one.  Unlike some of their other twists, I did really like this one, however.  It added a fun new dynamic to the episode.  I wonder how that idol will come into play next week.  Because I’m sure he’s not going to fess up right away.

Happy’s Place – I do like the message about people over machines.  But I don’t feel like that’s going to be the case with bigger companies.  And I’m not sure I still trust the machines without human supervision.  I did like the subplot involving emojis.  So fun to see it getting out of control like that.
