Arrow 3X13: Canaries

Oh, I LOVE that Thea is finally in the loop. And, I love even more, that she's not upset with Oliver for lying about it all this time. She's proud and happy that he worked so hard to save everyone.

After walking in on the team trying to help Laurel after she'd gotten hit with some Vertigo, Thea leaves and runs into the DJ. She tells him she needs something simple right now and brings him home. After they have sex, he brings her a drink, but she realizes it's spiked with cyanide. They fi...

Outlander 5X6: The Ballad of Roger Mac

Ugh. We were so close to getting out of this with Murtagh being alive! He saves Jamie and then almost immediately is shot by one of Jamie's soldiers. Had Jamie just known that kid was there, Murtagh could have gotten away.

But a crazed Jamie forces whoever is around to help him drag Murtagh back to Claire's medical tent, even though it's obvious there is nothing she can do for him. When she confirms as much, he tells of Tryon and claims he's done and that he's repaid his debt.

Bef...

9-1-1 4X8: Breaking Point

Something about this episode felt off, but I couldn't figure out what. I'm sure it was just me, but I couldn't stop looking for the source of whatever it was.

I don't care what news lady says, Buck is a good friend. Just ask Christopher, he'll tell you! And speaking of Christopher, he totally loses it (well for mild mannered Christopher anyway) when Eddie tells him he's started dating again. He knocks a salad bowl to the floor, steals Eddie's phone and calls and Uber to take him to Buck...

One Tree Hill 6X12: You Have to Be Joking (Autopsy of the Devil's Brain)

Minus the Scott family, everyone seemed like they ended up this episode so much worse than the started out.

The only bright spot of good news, Nathan managed to show up to the try out without an invite and get to try. It seemed like he did really well, thanks to his previous work with Q. We're just playing the wait and see if anyone calls him game right now though.

Outside of that, Sam realizes her friend was the one who attacked Brooke at the store and stole her sketches. Not on...

The 100 4X12: The Chosen

Clarke and Bellamy (along with Murphy and Emori who are hitching a ride to try to stay in the lighthouse) head out to get Raven. On the way they get attacked, and Emori's suit is torn, so she starts throwing up. Clarke puts her Nightblood to the test by giving her, her suit. But Clarke also ends up suffering from radiation. During the attack, Echo saves them, and she asks to stay in the lighthouse as well.

Due to all of this unexpected craziness, they run out of time to get back to the ...

Felicity 4X2: My Best Friend's Wedding

OMG. We're still doing Ben vs. Noel. How is this possible? So, last night Felicity and Noel slept together. And he gave her a giant hickey, so they are doing their best to hide it from Ben.

She cannot decide if she should tell Ben what happened or not. But she's being super distant and Ben assumes it's because he knows what he wants to do now and she's struggling. She says that's it and then breaks up with him. Good. That needed to happen whether she wants Noel or not.

Elena and ...

Friday Night Lights 4X5: The Son

I was so unprepared for this episode. I totally forgot that we found out last episode that Matt's dad was killed and I was not ready.

This episode made me so incredibly emotional. And I barely even remembered Matt had a dad. I'm crying (a ton, by the way) for Matt. Not his dad. And that scene where he shows up at Eric's house for dinner, drunk, like 3 hours late and tells him he hated his dad? Come on. So good.

Thank goodness for Tami. I'm so glad Matt didn't actually have to figu...

Shameless 6X12: Familia Supra Gallegorious Omnia!

So, I figured this wedding was not going to happen, but I did not know how it was gonna get called off. I would not have guessed this was the way, but it certainly does seem the most realistic. And while Frank got scammed in his murder for hire plot, he still managed to get rid of Sean anyway. But fuck. I'd love to say that none of the kids will ever talk to him again, but somehow he always manages to weasel his way back in.

Lip wakes up in jail to find out that Youens bailed him out. H...

The Vampire Diaries 1X11: Bloodlines

So, apparently, Elena hit a vampire with her car, and ends up getting saved by Damon. However, she passes out fairly quickly after he rescues her from the car. By the time she wakes up, they are in Georgia (where is Mystic Falls located?) and on their way to see his witch friend.

They all seem to be having a good time together, but when Elena and Damon are outside, the bartender makes a call and then surprise! Elena gets kidnapped by a vampire and is used as bait. Damon goes to get her ...

So, I Dropped a Window On My Eye

This is normal, regular, everyday Dana (man, makeup, and lighting really are a hell of thing, aren't they?), coming to say that I was a hot mess today. While trying to spy on my landlord, I dropped a window on my eye. It's one of those windows that swings towards you so you can clean inside it. Well, I yanked it up like a crazy person, it swung loose and got my eye.

I've been icing it and it seems like it's only red and a little lumpy, but if you see it bruised and swollen in the upcomi...

Arrow 3X12: Uprising

OMG. I hate this for Felicity. She's been trying so hard to do what she thought Oliver would do (WWOQD?), that she was totally blindsided when he showed up and did the opposite of what she lobbied for.

Also, I have no idea if Malcolm really thinks he was doing the right thing in the moment, or if, after all this time, he's justified what he did as a way to live with himself. Either way, I'm not for it. I know Thea has an attachment towards him after he saved her, but whatever he does st...

Outlander 5X6: Better to Marry Than Burn

We could have skipped everything at Fraser's Ridge. Seriously. I don't care about locusts. I don't care about Roger being respected now. I care about Jamie and Claire. Thank you.

Jocasta is getting married. To that really dull guy. Murtaugh shows up the night before the wedding and asks her to wait for him to get pardoned (or whatever he thinks is gonna happen that he won't be a wanted man anymore). It seems like she really wanted to, but ultimately, turned him away.

Before the w...

9-1-1 4X7: There Goes the Neighborhood

Bobby, Michael, and David running around playing detective was hysterical. Until it wasn't. I sort of assumed it would be something innocent. At least until Michael ended up breaking into the apartment. I'm shocked that Athena didn't literally bang their heads together like coconuts. Yes, they ended up saving that woman (and who knows how many more in the future), but this is so highly illegal, right?

That girl that Buck was on a date with had to be acting like that on purpose. She was ...

One Tree Hill 6X11: We Three (My Echo, My Shadow and Me)

I truly have no idea what to make of this episode. I have no idea if I even liked it. Is this a polarizing episode? I feel like this is a love it or hate it episode. But I don't know where I fall, so maybe it's not. Lol.

Does anything from this episode mean anything at all? Maybe minus the end with Peyton, was this just a standalone, one off episode? Am I supposed to take anything from this? Naley is gonna Naley. And Dan sucks in every universe. That was kind of my takeaway.

Don'...

The 100 4X11: The Other Side

Okay, so first off, fuck Jaha. I hope they do not give him a place in that bunker. And as pissed as I was at Clarke last episode, I'm feeling better about her now. Sort of. She does threaten to shoot Bellamy if he opens the door (and does actually shoot at him), but once the play has been made, she immediately just jumps on board and starts figuring out who we need on list our list of 100. Again.

The Arkadia suicide partiers are all dead with the exception of Harper, who decides she lov...

Schedule August 12-16

Hello, hello! Happy Saturday night. At least where I am. I read two books today, and watched some great Buffy reactors. We've just ordered some Chinese food and are heading to a bar with amazing Sangria afterwards. I hope your Saturday has been as good as mine.

This week We're starting Shameless S7. Holy hell. S6 has been insane. I cannot wait to see what S7 has for us.

We also jump into True Blood S3 this week as well. Um, after last week, I need to know what the hell is going o...

True Blood 2X12: Beyond Here Lies Nothin'

I'm so glad to rid of Maryann that I don't even care that I can't figure out how Sam turned into a goat god. I think she was a good villain overall, but after so many episodes I was just tired of her.

I do like the team up of Bill and Sam to take down Maryann. I like that they had a plan. I just wish that Bill would have said something to Sookie. I realize he didn't have time to explain the entire thing, but a simple, 'Don't worry, Sam and I have a plan,' would have sufficed in the mom...

Outlander 5X5: Perpetual Adoration

So the only Regulator we are still pursuing is Murtagh. That sucks. But at least Jamie doesn't have to pretend to look for any more.

However, now we've got a new problem. His military co-worker guy (me and names), discovers that Jamie is Murtagh godson. After telling Jamie to remain civil while he calls the authorities, Jamie instead, chooses to kill him so the information didn't get out. He then stages the crime scene, and sets a fire. He and Fergus slip away during the chaos. Is he g...

Arrow 3X11: Midnight City

Fuck this show. They did not tell my friends that Oliver is still alive. And they might not tell them next episode either. WTF is this bullshit? I hate it!

Felicity is totally gonna get sucked into this Oliver is dead vortex and decide to rebound with Ray and I'm gonna be so unhappy.

I continue to hate this storyline for Laurel. NO! You cannot pretend to be Sara. She was actually good at her job. Laurel, you suck. I HATE that we are moving towards giving Laurel more physical respo...

9-1-1 4X6: Jinx

I don't think I have a ton to say about this episode. But be prepared; I laugh a crazy amount. I'm not even sure why. But the first half of this episode, I'm in hysterics.

But in friend news, Eddie has finally asks out Christopher's ex teacher. I want this to work out for them. Mostly because I want all of our friends to be happy.

We've just got to find someone for Buck. Which I would not be pushing for, expect that it seems like he wants someone!

Do we think that guy said '...

One Tree Hill 6X10: Even Fairy Tale Characters Would Be Jealous

Just a head's up, I go on a couple of unhinged rants about Gigi; both in the reaction and in the discussion. Fuck this bitch. Am I right?

And much like Nathan of episodes past, Mouth is now in the complicit territory. He hasn't explicitly told Millicent what is going on. Plus, he really needs to get Gigi fired. One word to HR about her constant sexual harassment would totally seal the deal here.

I'm not really sure about how I feel about the Luke/Peyton/Julian situation. I think I...

The 100 4X10: Die All, Die Merrily

So we got the fight to end all fights. The Thunderdome, if you will. Each clan sets out a warrior. They fight to the death. Last man standing get their clan in the bunker.

Octavia is fighting for Skaikru has Octavia. They come up with a plan for her to try to hide and evade until the end so she only has to kill one person instead of 12.

Luna is fighting as the last of her kind. If she wins, her plan is that everyone will die, and no one will get to live in the bunker.

Echo ...

Friday Night Lights 4X4: A Sort of Homecoming

I guess it's Buddy's time to shine. I know I've given him a lot of shit over the seasons, but it seems like he's in his element here. That dinner was dying until he showed up.

Do we think Landry and this girl (whose name I don't know) are on the same page? It certainly seems so. I'm not sure what's going on here, but I will 100% always route for Landry.

And Matt is getting upset and resentful about Julie's decision to apply to schools away from Texas. But at least her realizes tha...

Shameless 6X11: Sleep No More

OMG. This episode was completely insane. And unhinged. And dysfunctional. It was all the things that Shameless should be.

Fucking Franny is not letting anyone sleep, so the entire Gallagher household is on edge.

Debbie tries to return to a normal life, only to realize that high school won't let her in with a crying baby. She has to do correspondence classes from home. Between not sleeping, holding a grudge against Fiona, and trying to study, she passes out with the baby on boob ...

The Vampire Diaries 1X10: The Turning Point

So I was so freaked out about the fact that Logan is dead, and no one seems to be concerned about the fact that he's just at school now. It took me way, way too long to remember that they covered this up. I'd appreciate if you ignore my screaming about it for the first half of this episode. 😳

The sheriff really has no idea that Damon is a vampire. (Also, we really need some kind of vampire test in this town). After Logan 'kidnaps' Caroline to piss off her mom, Damon and Stefan save h...

Stranger Things 3X2: Chapter Two: The Mall Rats

I literally have no idea what's happening with Billy. None. Is he actually going back and forth between our reality and the Upside? Are these hallucinations? Does he have any sense of reality? Why is the sun hurting him right now? What is happening?? (As per usual, don't actually tell me. Lol.)

Could I have loved Hopper's happiness after getting Mike to tell El he couldn't hang out today any more than I did? No, I don't think I could have. And him coming to Joyce to tell him his plan wo...

Arrow 3X10: Left Behind

Ugh. How are they gonna make me wait until next episode for everyone to find out the Oliver is alive? I hate it.

Thea asks Malcolm to check into where Oliver is, so he hikes up the mountain and brings the sword that stabbed Oliver back down with him. He tells Arrow and Co., but not Thea. Once he leaves, Felicity tests the DNA on the sword and it's Oliver. Confirming what they've all been too afraid to believe. Oliver is actually dead.

Thea also asks Roy to check with the Arrow abo...

Outlander 5X4: The Company We Keep

Whose bright idea was it to make Roger a Captain with no experience or training? Sorry, Jamie. It's rare I call you out, but you own some of this mess. But, since you're Jamie, you know that part of if it is your fault and why. So, carry on.

Anyway, we've lost some men due to Roger being Roger, but Jamie manages to sign up pretty much the whole town to join them. There might be some squabbles ahead about who is actually in charge, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Al...

9-1-1 4X5: Buck Begins

Not me randomly guessing at some point that I had Buck to save the other child. 😳 But I didn't actually think that. It was just a random passing thought. And then it was real?!? How was that a real thing? And after learning that, he still forgives his parents so quickly! I'd be so much more upset.

I loved (but also hated, you know) the scene where Buck was sending postcards. He sounded so happy and joyous. But having to watch Maddie read them while constantly being bruised and scrat...

One Tree Hill 6X9: Sympathy For the Devil

I was so sure that Julian was sketchy. Now I'm not so sure. I think the only issue is that he might want Peyton back. Which is not good (re: Gigi), but that doesn't make him the horrible creep I was expecting him to be. That said, there is zero reason that Peyton should have kept this from Lucas. Had she told him immediately, this would probably be a non-issue and now it's gonna be a shitshow. I know she told Lucas they were in love, but do we also think this was a rebound? She ran into him a...
