The Americans 3X8: Divestment

I so wish I could remember what 'Clark' told Martha his job was way back in S1. Do you guys remember? I feel like it's something like he's watching the government to make sure they don't give up trade secrets or something? Remind me?

So, I'm not 100% sure what's going on with the anti-apartheid stuff. But, we lit Venter on fire and that scared the hell out of the young kid. He immediately spilled all the tea. And, his information was correct. They retrieve the un-exploded bomb from his ...

Hart of Dixie 2X6: I Walk the Line

Ugh. I hate, hate, hate that I am starting to feel empathy for Lemon. What has happened to me?

So, it's election day. We've finally made it. But, it's not going as planned. The day before, Levon is 22 (?) votes shy. Lemon has got everyone running around trying to make sure everyone who is registered to vote, actually votes. However, we've only got two hold outs that we know of; Tansey, who's just moved back to BlueBell (well not really, but we're all pretending), and the beer girl that...

The Vampire Diaries 5X14: No Exit

Fucking finally. It hasn't even been that long, but I am so ready for them to figure out how to get Elena back. My guess is they somehow trade curing Nadia's bite for Elena getting back in her body. How, I have no idea, but it seems feasible, right?

So Enzo and Damon are running around turning people into vampires so Damon will have something to eat (you know, other than Enzo). They are about to split and head to New York to sample the wide array of people there, when Wes and his merry ...

The Originals 1X14: Long Way Back From Hell

Okay, so I think this is probably my favorite episode so far. And that's saying a lot, because this show is so good. So we've got both Rebek

Okay, so I think this is probably my favorite episode so far. And that's saying a lot, because this show is so good.

So we've got both Rebekah and Klaus at the mercy of Genevieve. Rebekah has been stabbed (and maybe drugged), she's hallucinating. It's a bad time. Klaus, meanwhile, is strapped to a table with the Papa Tunde knife still inside ...

Virgin River 2X6: Out of the Past

Okay, so Doc has finally come clean with Muriel about he and Hope being back together. She takes it well (at least when he tells her), but Hope was upset that he told her. He didn't like the fact that he was deceiving her and, believe it or not, Hope seemed to feel bad about it too. She ended up baking a pie for Muriel and bringing it over as an apology. Muriel gracefully accepts and Hope seems relieved. At least until she leaves and Muriel calls her back. She tells her that she knows she's g...

The Mentalist 2X20: Red All Over

Okay, so can someone please tell me that dad's wife was his son's stepmom and not his actual mother? I mean, I think this was on network TV so probably right?

So we've got a guy who is murdered at the party for him where he's announced to take over as the CEO of the company by his dad (the current CEO). When he comes out, he's holding his neck that covered in blood. Poor guy was stabbed in the neck with a letter opener. CBI is on the case!

Turns out, the dead guy planned a coup to...

The Fosters 4X6: Justify

Again I say, I SCREAM, Mariana needs an adult. She cannot navigate this situation on her own. Hell, I'm not sure I could navigate this situation on my own. This is way beyond the capability of a 16 year old. I'm begging Jesus to tell Stef what's going on (or any adult, really, but Stef seems like the best option).

Anyway, we find out that Lena's dad owes $300,000 to the IRS. That's not chump change. And they are gonna take the house (the Fosters-Adam house) if they don't get i...

The Americans 3X7: Walter Taffet

How is this show so good and no one I know has watched it? It's criminal.

Okay, so Philip and Elizabeth are still at odds about what to do with Paige. Elizabeth has taken over and is no longer keeping Philip in the loop about what she's doing. He had to find out from Paige that her mom has been talking with her about activism and how she could do more for the movement. His very unhappy, but Elizabeth is very matter of fact about how she told him she was going to do it, and she is.

Hart of Dixie 2X5: Walkin' After Midnight

It's Halloween! I love it!

Zoe comes home for a night at Wade's to discover that someone has been sleeping in her bed. She asks Lavon about it and he says it was probably just Wade playing a joke. He denies it, but Zoe isn't convinced. She texts him at the bar and tells her to meet him at her house. He expects to have sex with her, but she's just asking him to install a camera so she can catch whoever it is. It only takes him two minutes, so they end up having sex afterwards anyway.

The Vampire Diaries 5X13: Total Eclipse of the Heart

I liked a lot about this episode, but I'm already fed up with no one realizing that Elena is Katherine. I get she's trying a lot harder to pull this off now than ever before. But, we've had several occasions were she's just walked into a room and Caroline has known it isn't Elena.

So, we've got Katherine happy as a clam that she's living Elena's life. And her next goal is to figure out how to start dating Stefan again. But first, she has to deal with Caroline and her happy optimism abou...

The Originals 1X13: Crescent City

Okay, so Monique is back. I'm not 100% sure how this happened, but because it has, Marcel is convinced they can get back Davina. Monique kno

Okay, so Monique is back. I'm not 100% sure how this happened, but because it has, Marcel is convinced they can get back Davina. Monique knows that his intentions for this are pure, so she tells Sophie they should help me. Sophie agrees on the condition that after she helps him track down the other witches, he gives them enough money to leave.

Prison Break 4X10: The Legend

This season continues to be amazing. I don't care if no one else enjoys it, I certainly am.

Also, it's so late. And I'm so tired. I'm gonna Wikipedia this. Thankfully, it looks robust so I can use it to job my memory before the next episode.

The team members are angered when they find out that Agent Self is refusing to return Bellick's body to his mother. Sucre attacks him and Mahone threatens to call off the operation to uncover Scylla if Self goes back on his word. Self reluctan...

Virgin River 2X5: Can't Let Go

Ugh. My god. Can we please just get Stacey and Charmaine to fuck off together? Seriously. The two of them would be fast friends. I need both of them out of Mel's life ASAP.

Stacey is busy running around being a bitch. Accidentally telling Mel about the memorial they were hosting for Mark, but that she wasn't invited to. Then proceeds to remind her that her mom never liked her (or anyone that Mark brought home, as if that made it better). Mel tries to tell her they were married. She's no...

The Mentalist 2X19: Blood Money

Okay, so I'm not entirely sure where the Jane magic started in this episode. I have no idea if him picking the lock to go find the evidence in the apartment (when he left his prints on the mug) was part of the plan or just a rare accident on his part.

We start with Grace approaching some sketchy guy and telling him that she wants to have Rigsby killed. It's pretty obvious that this is a set up and she's not looking to have him killed, and we reset to 36 hours earlier.

There's a DA...

The Fosters 4X5: Forty

Okay, so we had a bit of a lower drama episode this time around and that's just fine with me. Things have been insane lately, it was nice to take a bit of a break (not that we didn't have our fair share of it, but none of it was life or death this episode).

Lena is turning 40 and we're throwing her a 70s party (and the costumes, hair, and make up are awesome). He parents are in town for the event, but they aren't getting along well at all. Her mom told Lena that her dad is having an aff...

The Americans 3X6: Born Again

I'm loving the parallel storylines here with Philip and Kimberly, and Elizabeth and Paige.

So, it's Paige's baptism day. You can literally see the happiness radiating out of her. Meanwhile, Elizabeth and Philip are watching from the pews desperately trying not to make gagging faces. I think they are much more on the same page here than they are about Paige being recruited. (Not that it matters, Elizabeth is taking matters into her own hands).

Both Elizabeth and Philip go to see th...

Schedule July 7-11

Hello, hello. Happy Monday. At least where I am.

This long weekend got all kinds of messed up due to weather. It took us 2 days to get home from what should have been a 10 hour drive. But, we're here and we're safe and that's what's important. And we had a good time (minus trying to get home).

So, obviously, nothing is going up today. We'll be a little behind this week, but by Friday, we'll be caught up. This week will mostly be me reacting to shows and them going up that same day...

The Mentalist 2X17: The Red Box

Okay. This was not my favorite episode. I don't know if it was because I really liked the last several or because I was annoyed at the new boss, but I don't think it was as fun as the last handful.

We're called to the scene of a murder. A high end tutor has been murdered in the guesthouse of one of the people who employees him (he lives there). Before we get inside, we run into a guy that Rigsby used to work with in the arson unit and he tells us police work is too stressful, so he got ...

The Americans 3X4: Dimebag

You guys, I don't even know how I managed to record what I promised this week. There is just zero time to do a description, so everything is gonna have to be Wikipedia-ed this week. I'm sorry. Sigh.

After learning their telephone target has employed Kimberly "Kimmy" Breland, daughter of the head of the CIA's Afghan group, as a babysitter, Phillip is tasked with recruiting Kimmy, who is nearly the same age as Paige. He provides fake IDs for Kimmy and her friends, and later she asks to se...

The Vampire Diaries 5X12: The Devil Inside

I'm so annoyed that Caroline did not realize that Elena was Katherine. I was counting on her. She's always been the one who was quick on the uptake with that in the past. Especially after her first question after she told her about Klaus was to ask if he was better in bed than Tyler. Girl. You should know better. Maybe we can chalk it up to her being distracted about her sleeping with Klaus, but even if that's true, she should figure this out soon.

Okay, so Katherine being in Elena's bo...

The Originals 1X12: Dance Back From the Grave

Okay, so many years ago, this witch showed up in New Orleans, Papa Tunde. He's all like, bad shit is about to go down, but I'll help protect

The Fosters 4X2: Safe

Alright, so we know that Nick as been in the house very recently, but Stef has cleared it. She tells everyone that they are basically on lockdown and she wants everyone's computers and phones, as she doesn't want them to see any sensationalized news about the incident (or Callie to see anything going around about her). Brandon asks for permission t...
