We Were the Lucky Ones 1X3: Siberia

Okay, so I think this was my favorite episode so far. Honestly, I feel like each episode has been better than the previous one.

So, we pick up right where we left off with Genek getting arrested for not putting the fact that he was Polish on his lease. Herta refuses to let him go without her, so they get arrested together.

They spend weeks on a train with a bunch of other people who have been arrested. It seems like they get water, but not really food. They are all packed in ther...

Spider-Man: Far From Home

You guys, I was very confused. I'm not a girl who watches Marvel movies. Here's the text I sent to Dan:

Also, Mysterio is bad?!? Was I the only one who was blind sided by this?

Plus, Peter looks way better in those Edith glasses than Beck did. And Ned and Happy continue to be delightful.

A side note: I think I have Lizzie McGuire hair. But I've never actually ...

Schedule February 10-14

Hello, hello. Happy Saturday.

I've been so behind this week. I have no idea how I managed to get everything out on time. Plus, I haven't responded to any comments. I'm sorry. I've read them all, but just didn't have time this week. I really need to upgrade the data on my Vimeo. I'm so close to the limit and it's taking hours to upload things. I was trying to hold out to see if I could make it the whole year at 5TB, but it's not gonna happen. But I keep putting it off because I don't wan...

True Blood 4X12: And When I Die

What the fuck, you guys? Where the hell do we go from here?

I mean, you'd think Lafayette getting possessed by Marnie would be the biggest part of this episode. And it sucks, because she made Lafayette kill Jesus, but honestly, so much happened in this episode.

So, Marnie wants to steal Jesus' magic. Jesus tries to resist but Marie tells him she'll Lafayette if he doesn't. He ends up doing it, even though it ends up killing him. Marie stabbed him in the stomach and he bled out. Ta...

9-1-1 8X5: Masks

OMG. The emotional whiplash of this episode. I was so thoroughly entertained in the first half. I laughed so much. And then, in the second half, all I did was cry. You're killing me 9-1-1.

It's a Halloween episode and the 118 has been tasked with setting up the haunted house this year. Chim and Buck are aiming for gory and scary, but Bobby keeps trying to pull them back. Personally, I think it's a pretty good mix. But Buck has found a prop that he uses at the end of the tour, which, tur...

Arrow 6X12: All For Nothing

Okay, so I know this is supposed to be heartbreaking and dramatic, but I didn't really buy into Vince's death being much of anything. I hardly know him, and up until, like, two episodes ago, he was a bad guy.

Anyway, Felicity comes up with the idea to use that sniffer device (why didn't she think of it before now?) to get all of Cayden James' info which will tell us where the bomb is. We've already given him 70 million dollars and we don't have anymore. So, we have to get this bomb so ...

Sons of Anarchy 4X13: To Be, Act I

And of course Clay isn't dead. Can we never get what we want?

So, once Opie realizes that Clay isn't dead, he goes to shoot him again, but Jax shoots him in the hand, so he can't. One of the prospects and Unser are also here, so Jax and Prospect drag Clay out to the garage, and Unser stays with him until EMS get there. Jax is going to try to pin this on the Niners.

However, since none of the other members of SAMCRO actually know what happened, Tig goes rouge and tries to kill Laro...

The Fosters 1X3: Hostile Acts

Oh I was totally wrong about Talya, wasn't I? In the pilot I really thought she was gonna be a nice girl, but each episode after, she's gotten worse.

So, after a chaotic morning in the house, where Brandon has to shower with cold water, his dad sort of unexpectedly tells him he could move in with him if he wanted to. And honestly, there are way too many people in that house for one bathroom. Some of those people need to shower at night. Brandon says he'll think about it.

But, once...

We Were the Lucky Ones 1X2: Lvov

So after a harrowing experience, Halina and Bella manage to get to Lvov. The driver of the wagon eventually left them close to the boarder to travel on foot, but the end up getting caught by the Soviets and put into a work camp of sorts for a week or so. Halina managed to befriend someone who argued for their release, and they finally get to Jakob's apartment.

After reuniting, Jakob and Bella pretty much immediately decide to get married. And after watching the two of them and Genek and...

Shameless 10X10: Now Leaving Illinois

Um, you guys, this is now two episodes in a row I didn't hate. What is happening here?
That said, I still hated all the Carl stuff. It took up a lot of time and wasn't that interesting, so again, we'll skip all that.

Fucking Frank. Why the hell does everything always seem to work out for him? After all this trouble Faye has gone through to set him up, he ends up with a sympathetic judge who treats him to community service and rehab. Even though, he should have gotten 30 years. I mea...

Prison Break 2X4: First Down

I 100% fell for Rat Boy being the guy who was gonna get caught in this episode. I don't know if I should feel like an idiot, or thrilled that this show is just so good. Lol.

So Bellick and Geary pretty much immediately try to to capture Michael and Lincoln. By trying to run them off the road. And it works. Eventually the car hits a tree and Bellick runs over with a gun. Turns out though, he's not really in it for the reward money. Sucre's cousin told him about the money in Utah and he w...

The Vampire Diaries 3X16: 1912

Alright, so, I'm not entirely sure what's happening, but I think that Alaric's ring is the same one that Samatha Gilbert had back in 1912. And I think it's causing him to have the same insanity that she had. It really does seem like maybe he's the serial killer right now. Although, why psycho nurse would help him, I have no idea.

We start with Alaric in jail (although, I thought he was just coming back to life proving that Meredith is supernatural) and him pleading his cas...

Arrow 6X11: We Fall

So, Cayden James is busy destroying everything in the damn city that can be connected to the internet. Which, these days, is pretty much damn near everything. We've had massive casualties, and no idea how to stop him. Several episodes ago, Felicity uploaded a virus (without her consent, really) and it seems to be keeping her from being able to fix things.

Cayden ends up showing up at Oliver's office and claiming that he wants 10 million dollars a day delivered into a back account. All b...

Sons of Anarchy 4X12: Burnt and Purged Away

Oh fucking, hell. This is such a mess right now. I have no idea what the hell S5 can bring. This season is amazing.

So, Clay? Alive? I'm leaning towards yes. I had to rewatch the ending a couple of times because I genuinely couldn't tell if Opie actually hit him. But there is definitely blood splatter on the wall, so he hit something. But I can't imagine Clay actually dying now. Right?

Okay, well, Opie shows up at Gemma's looking for Clay, but sees her face and is outraged yet aga...

The Fosters 1X2: Consequently

Um, I know I only have 84 minutes of experience with this show, but I am solidly on not Team Mike. How can you have a say in this if you don't live in the damn house? Or talk to your kid less than 15 minutes a week? No. You can express frustration, but ultimately, the decisions are Stef's and Lena's.

Anyway, after the antics of last week, Stef sits down with Brandon and decides he's not going to get grounded. She and Lena really think he understands the situation, why he shouldn't have ...

We Were the Lucky Ones 1X1: Radom

Okay, so this is our TBD that's replacing Tell Me Lies. And holy hell is it a total 180 from that. I had no idea what it was, but I thought the thumbnail looked nice when I was looking up what platform it was on to stream. You guys might know, I really like to go into things blind, and I 100% got that. I mean I was warned by Melissa, our sponsor, that it was dark, and they did not lie. Also, if you guys watched any of my Outlander or Peaky Blinders reactions, you'll know I suck at history, so...

Prison Break 2X3: Scan

Dude, a bunch of stuff kind of annoyed me about this episode, but even with that stuff, it was still so good! The big thing that annoyed me in this episode: the FBI is doing all this high tech tracking, but no one can find C Note standing outside his house, or think to check up on Michael's wife? There is zero chance that Bellick is smarter than Mahone.

But, fuck Michael and his brilliant fucking plans. So, the car really was everything they needed. I thought it was just about the bag, ...

Shameless 10X9: O Captain, My Captain

I actually didn't hate this. I certainly didn't love it, but it was far from the worst episode of Shameless I've seen. We'll skip over Carl and his weird baby police training. But I kind of think the rest of it is worth mentioning.

So, Mickey punching Ian down the stairs apparently messed up his leg; he's limping around and full of bruises. However, Mickey seems to have moved on with a twink (who bears a striking resemblance to Ian) although it's been less than a day and he's already mo...

The Vampire Diaries 3X15: All My Children

I'm honestly not entirely sure what happened at the end of this episode. Damon turned Bonnie's mom into a vampire which broke the bloodline and stopped the spell. But what happened to Esther? And Finn? They just sort of disappeared. I feel like I totally missed something. Also, is it just me, or did this all seem kind of rushed? I really thought we were going to drag out the suspense more.

Anyway, Elijah seems to realize that Elena lied to him, as he can hear her heartbeat (no idea tha...

Arrow 6X10: Divided

Okay, so it seems like it's been about 5 weeks since the last episode, and the team has continued to be without Dinah and Rene. Curtis is still helping out with John's implant so at least they see him. But Oliver is adamant about not trusting them enough to have them on the team. However, we do really need more manpower since it's basically just Oliver now.

It's around this time, that they figure out the bunker has been bugged. (It's driving me crazy that Felicity would not have figured...

Sons of Anarchy 4X11: Call of Duty

I cannot believe that Otto is gonna turn. I'm shocked. I really, truly didn't think, after all this time. Maybe he's playing some kind of long game that I don't know yet?

So Wendy is back. I didn't think we were ever gonna see her again. Honestly, I kind of forgot she existed. But she's back and sober and wants into Abel's life. She drops by to see Tara in the hospital and when she leaves, Tara is so pissed she smashes the hell out of her hand and needs to go back into surgery.

A...

The Fosters 1X1: Pilot

Ugh. You guys. This is show is gonna break me, isn't it? It's been one episode and I'm already crying? How am I gonna make it five seasons?

So Callie is just getting out of juvie. However, the foster home she was supposed to go to, ends up not working out, so they call Lena (who is already a foster of twins) to see if she'll take her. After not being able to get in touch with her wife, she just ends up taking her home and surprising the rest of the family.

The couple adopted the t...

Tell Me Lies 2X8: Don't Struggle Like That, Or I Will Only Love You More

Fuck. How is this the last episode? I hate this. I need S3, like, today.

So, we start in 2015 with Stephen thanking Lucy for getting off in front of him. Max sees the text, freaks out (obviously) and that's pretty much it for them. As it should be. Lucy is so obsessed with Stephen that she 100% should not be in a relationship with anyone.

Anyway, back in 2008, Lucy wakes up after having sex with Stephen, that she immediately seems to regret. She kind of blows him off when he says ...

Drunk Re-Watch

Dry January is over and it's been so long! What do you guys want?

I'm still sick, and alcohol is probably not great for me right now, so expect this Saturday, February 15.

Next Movie

Usually I give a lot a options. But, the last two movies both had several iterations, so I thought I'd just go with those.

What looks good?

Expect this February 8.

Schedule February 3-7

Hello, hello. Happy Saturday.

So, One Tree Hill is over. And I'm sad about it. You guys were kind enough to give me some suggestions for ancillary One Tree Hill things, which I do plan to incorporate starting later this month.

And, you have chosen The Fosters as a replacement for One Tree Hill. I sort of feel like it's going to be about foster kids? I sort of vaguely remember seeing commercials for the this. Maybe? But I love to go into stuff blind, so it doesn't bother me at all ...

True Blood 4X11: Soul of Fire

So after we killed Marnie/Antonia I was very confused because there is still one more episode left this season. But it looks like she's now possessed Lafayette. WTF.

Okay, so Bill, Eric, Jessica, and Pam are ready to blow up the magic shop. As long as Marnie dies, they don't care about anything else. Until Jason comes up to them screaming to stop because Sookie is inside the building as well. And of course, both Bill and Eric halt and demand they find another way. Pam is not thrilled. 2025-01-31 22:00:06 +0000 UTC View Post

9-1-1 8X4: No Place Like Home

I fucking hate that bitch Ortiz. Watching her get dethroned was so sweet.

So Hen and Karen have a hearing to see if they can get their foster license reinstated, but get denied when they judge finds out they've been having regular contact with Mara. They are immediately told they have to go zero contact with her, including phone calls. Hen tries to plead her case, but no dice (we find out later, the judge is Ortiz's friend).

Hen goes to her office to talk to her directly, but Orti...

Arrow 6X9: Irreconcilable Differences

Ugh. We went from the high of highs, to the low of lows. All within 42 minutes.

So, we're at the reception and everything is going fine. But then, Dig gets a call from Oliver's lawyer who informs him that someone on the team is about to out Oliver as the Green Arrow and testify against him. I did not believe this and refused to think that this could be any of them. But, just to be sure, Felicity does some tech stuff to spy on Rene, Dinah, and Curtis. And they find out that Dinah is stil...

Sons of Anarchy 4X10: Hands

Well, I don't think there is any goodness left in Clay. I think Gemma said it best when she told Unser he can't be saved.

So Clay empties the safe and uses the money to pay the hit man to kill Tara. He says it needs to be clean. Later, he finds out that Jax and boys are with her and tries to call it off, but he was warned, once it's in motion there is no going back. This was a lie though, as soon as he hangs up the phone, they call and tell him that Jax and boys are there and to just be...
