One Tree Hill 8X13: The Other Half of Me

Ugh. You guys. I spent most of this reaction trying not to cry and failing. And I had nothing with me. So, it's just a never ending parade of tears. I'm sorry!

So, we finally made it to Brooke and Julian's wedding day. I was looking forward to this so much. I don't know what it is about the two of them, but they have wormed their way into my heart. I think, at the end of the day, I just want Brooke to have all the happiness in the world and Julian makes her happy. They aren't Naley, but...

Wildfire 4X7: Commitment Issues

Okay, so I watched this, like a week ago, and this is another reminder to myself to do descriptions right away so you remember what happened! Eek!

Turns out, Flame is pretty good. We've got him entered in a race, however we need a jockey. Kris is determined to appeal to get her jockey license back. However, while the racing board all seem to think she should, turns out Laura's dad is convinced it's Kris' fault that Junior called off the wedding and basically told the racing board she's ...

Schedule December 2-6

Hello, hello. Happy Saturday. (At least where I am. I'm really pushing it, though).

We're starting SOA S3 this week. It's super exciting. I don't know how we're gonna end S2, but regardless, S3 is gonna be amazing.

Also, we're finishing TVD S2 this week. How did that happen? It's been so fast! I'm gonna be super sad if S3 isn't as awesome as S2. Just saying.

On another note, am I the only one who becomes OBSESSED with characters and wants to dress just like them? Only to dis...

Meanwhile, Jason escapes from Hotshot, pursued by werepanthers. He kills Felton and runs away from Crystal, and eventually collapses next to a highway where he is discovered by Hoyt and Jessica, who gives Jason some of her blood to help heal his wounds.

Lack of Descriptions

Hello, hello. Happy Friday.

Well, I did mange to get everything reacted to and uploaded. However, I haven't done descriptions for anything. And I'm not planning to. I know you guys have all commented that you really like the descriptions, but they take a long time. So, I'm giving myself today off from descriptions.

But just today. Things will go back to normal on Monday.

I am, however, going to do a copy/paste from Wikipedia (or something similar). No matter how much I love ...

Prison Break 1X8: The Old Head

So, we finally answer the question that I've been asking for a while now. How are we all going to get into Michael and Sucre's cell in order to escape? Turns out, we're not. Everyone else (apparently) is going to go under the room where the COs take their break.

However, before we can do that, we've got to dig through the floor. But, how do we get in there? DB Cooper is allowed access for being, like, the best prisoner in the prison. So Michael offers him in on the plan. But, he decline...

Shameless 9X7: Down Like the Titanic

Ugh. Why does everything work out for Fiona? Sure, she no longer has her apartment building, but she's walking away free and clear. AND she still has her 100k investment on the old people home that will come to fruition eventually. Bah.

So, this episode had too much Frank for my liking. I know he's, like, the star of the show, but after all this time, I'm much more interested in what's going on with Lip and Ian. Frank is busy trying to romance a bi polar Ingrid, while her ex husband kee...

The Vampire Diaries 2X20: The Last Day

OMG. I'm so afraid that S3 is going to be a disappointment given how amazing this season has been.

So, Elijah has some elixir that he claims will bring Elena back from the dead after Klaus drains her. However, there are no guarantees. But, Elena is willing to risk it and the absolute dismay of Damon. She goes to talk to him afterwards and he loses it and forces her to drink his blood. That way, she'll be assured to come back no matter what. Both she and Stefan are furious with him. Afte...

9-1-1 7X3: Capsized

So, Bobby comes through with the thrilling heroics. As expected.

With everyone's help, we manage to get Norman off the ceiling. It's slow and insane, but we manage. And I love that the captain is also in awe of Bobby. Once we're all accounted for, we start the slow process of trying to get to the hole the bomb blew, as we figure that's the best way out.

However, along the way, Wes opens a door and an explosion occurs (gas plus sparks equal big boom) and we lose Wes. Sad. As we kee...

Arrow 5X10: Who Are You?

Um, did we know that Laurel had an evil twin? (or that we all had twins? Did I miss that, or is it a Flash thing?)

I feel bad for this episode. If it hadn't had come after the one before it, it would have seemed so much better. It was still great, but there was just no way for it to be as good as the previous episode.

So, apparently, Prometheus broke fake Laurel out of the prison at STAR labs. After trying to pretend to be real Laurel for a while, she finally breaks and starts can...

One Tree Hill 8X11: Darkness on the Edge of Town

OMG. Why does this episode hate me?

There is really zero chance this wedding is happening, right?

So, Junior is torn between doing wedding related activities with Laura and working on the wind turbine. Kris initially tells him to focus on Laura, but then when she sees how enthusiastic he is about the project, she changes tune.

However, turns out, part of the issue going on with Junior and Laura is Kris, herself. She finds it uncomfortable that Junior is still spending so much time with his ex (and she should be, h...

Felicity 4X17: The Graduate

Okay, I was very confused as to how this was going to go. Because it really felt like a season finale, but we've still got five more episode.

So, they teased with a Felicity and Ben break up. Again. And I fell for it. Again. Ugh. Why do they keep doing this to me? First, Ben proposes and Felicity accepts. Then, his son is born and Ben decides he has to go to Arizona to be near him. Felicity isn't thrilled about this, but sort of agrees. Then, after a conversation with her dad, she reali...

Fiona shows up for an investment meeting and finds out that the propery probably won't be starting up for another year. Plus, they all need to add an additional 25K to their original investment, which of course, Fiona does not have. And the bank won't give her a loan.

Arrow 5X9: What We Leave Behind

I'm not sure, but I kind of think this might be my favorite episode of Arrow to this point. OMG. This season is so good. Also, this feels like a mid season finale. Was it?

Felicity pleads with her BF (whose name I don't know and no longer need to figure out) to stay away from this throwing star killer. He refuses, claiming this is what he does. He ends into his apartment (or wherever he hangs out) and finds a baby picture. He sends it to Felicity and the team tries to figure out why he'...

Um, I'm sorry. Why is Athena so smart? How the hell did she figure out that the two of them were having an affair? I mean, I also picked up on the wife being nervous when the cruise director came over, but affair never entered my mind.

But, apparently, that's what's going on. She's been helping cruise director to help smuggle (steal? move? transfer?) some kind of crypto currency. After the pirates shoot the husband, Athena figures this out and calls over the director where he finally gi...

One Tree Hill 8X10: Lists, Plans

Honestly, minus all the stuff happening at TRIC, I really enjoyed this episode.

I've been so into Brooke and Julian lately, and I LOVE this for her. I really think that Julian is perfect for her. I'm so happy for them. And I love her growth as a character so much. She and Nathan have had such amazing arcs. And so believable. Anyway, Julian is trying to get her to accomplish a bunch of things on her bucket list that she never had the time to do while she was busy running Clothes Over Bro...

This is going to be a super busy week over here. I'm trying to fit everything in, so I can take off Thanksgiving and the day after (but I think the day after might be a stretch).

We're back to regularly scheduled Arrow this week. And remember when I said how much I en...
