The 100 4X9: DNR

This episode was so frustrating! Grown ass adults can't figure out that it's better to work together so they don't all die! What incredible insanity is this?!? I hate it so much.

We almost had a solution with Clarke becoming the commander, but both Roan and Abby had to screw that up. Why are they all going out of their way to make this so much harder than it needs to be? Ahhhhh!

Do we think our 'ready to die' people are going to stick with this decision? I feel like Jasper will, a...

Felicity 4X1: The Declaration

And we are 100%, no question about it, back in the triangle. Ugh. Ahhh! How is it possible it's season four and we are in exactly the same place we were in, in season one. I hate it!

Anyway, Felicity and Noel had the perfect NYC summer (which I don't think exists, but sure) while Ben was away at EMT training the whole time. Javier is concerned about it, but Felicity tells him not to be.

So Ben finally comes home, and he and Felicity tend to be reconnecting well. She tells him she...

Friday Night Lights 4X3: In the Skin of a Lion

I really don't think Eric realized how good he had it as the coach of the Dillion Panthers. Over in East Dillion, he's got nothing. I honestly don't even know how they are paying him. Especially after the principal told him he was offered the job as a joke and no one expected him to accept it. His fundraising goes so poorly, that he has to give cash to Riggins and have him hand it out the townspeople to put in the helmets.

They really have zero money over here. Eric wrote a check out of...

Shameless 6X10: Paradise Lost

OMG. No one would Frank virile, right? At watching women, literally, fight over him is insane. Lip, yes. Ian, yes. Kevin, yes. But Frank? FRANK? No. I refuse to believe this.

It looks like Fiona and Sean are planning a quick wedding, since she's already working on a wedding dress and having a bachelorette party. But if you thought that was quick, V and Svetlana have already gotten married. What is it with this show and quick weddings?

I'm conflicted about Ian lying on the EMT form...

The Vampire Diaries 1X9: History Repeating

This episode was fun. I'm not a big movie person, but I do I like horror movies. And this had some fun horror movie vibes.

I assume this is the end of the storyline with the necklace (mostly since the necklace was destroyed). But we did finally get a reason for Damon being here. However, if his entire plan depended on the magic from the necklace, how could he ever let it out of his sight? Is he crazy? He literally just gave it away. Stupid.

Also, Katherine is not dead? She's just ...

Arrow 3X9: The Climb

Oh, this episode was so much fun! And I refuse to feel bad about constantly saying this about this show.

So, STAR labs got back to Felicity about the boomerang DNA and the most likely culprit is Oliver. We know that can't be right. Eventually the team (minus Oliver) comes up with the hypothesis that it's Thea. Oliver is adamant that Thea did not kill Sara. Turns out, Oliver is wrong.

Apparently, Malcolm used some drugs on Thea that make her susceptible to mind control, but also ma...

Outlander 5X3: Free Will

This didn't really seem like an episode of Outlander. It felt more like a really short, creepy horror movie. But I really enjoyed it.

So, while on our way to recruit people for the military, Jame and Claire run into an issue with some indentured servants. Being the delightful people that they are, they decide to buy their freedom. However, it proves more difficult than expected, when they show up at the house and find a horror movie.

And then after they try to deal as best they ca...

One Tree Hill 6X8: Our Life is Not a Movie or Maybe

I enjoyed this episode so much more than the last one. Which I found out is unusual. Lots of people seem to like the last episode. Oops.

I'm so done with Gigi. She needs to get the hell off this show. I know we are sort of low on drama right now, but come on. No one gets to hurts Millie. Listen to Nathan, Mouth!

Okay, everyone not only being supportive of Lucas's movie, but telling them who they wanted to be cast as them, was delightful. And Luke having to keep telling them that i...

9-1-1 4X4: 9-1-1, What's Your Grievance?

Ooh, this was a good episode. It was half murder mystery, and half what the hell is going on with Buck?

So Athena is trying to work a case with a woman who was murdered, and the whole cul de sac has motive. It turns out she shot herself, but one of the neighbors was being blackmailed by her, so she ended up in jail too. Fun.

But, in the important part of this episode (at least in my opinion), we finally get to meet Maddie and Buck's parents. They aren't as bad as I expected (altho...

Bonus Surprise: 9-1-1 Lone Star 2X3: Hold the Line

So I guess it's the month for crossovers. After our Arrow/Flash crossover, Lisa, our 9-1-1 sponsor was like, 'Super awesome timing! There's a 9-1-1 crossover right now if you're interested!' And I was. Lol. Thankfully, they caught me just in time.

When our friends get to Texas, Buck is sort of immediately enraptured by a social media star that Eddie ends up working with. They actually end up enjoying each other, and I wonder if she's going to get mentioned on the future in regular 9-1-1...

The 100 4X8: God Complex

Holy hell. What is it with this show? It's so good!

Okay, so Emori is found out and they vow to experiment on her next. She and John are handcuffed to the rocket and set in isolation. This all happens after the test subject dies and Abby thinks she's figured out why.

However, when it's time for the retest, Abby cannot bring herself to potentially kill another person. She balks at injecting Emori and Clarke claims she'll take over for her. Only to inject herself with the Nightblood...

Schedule August 5-9 (Plus an apology)

Hello, hello. Happy Sunday.

This week we start the final season of Felicity. It feels like I started this show forever ago (and I did, as it's only a once a week show). And with 22 episodes in season 4, it's still going to take the rest of this year before I finish it. That just seems crazy to me!

Okay, now on to the apology.

So, I feel really bad about the videos I filmed (and posted on Friday); True Blood and Outlander. I should never have posted them. The roof noise was j...

Outlander 5X2: Between Two Fires

WARNING: They are working on my roof. It is loud. I've also got the air conditioner on to try to drown it out. But seriously, it's loud.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, I know I should put something witty here, but my brain is so broken from listening to this banging all day. It's been an entire day and the banging (or house shaking) never stopped. Even though, during this episode my landlord tex...

True Blood 2X11: Frenzy

WARNING: They are working on my roof. It is loud. I've also got the air conditioner on to try to drown it out. But seriously, it's loud.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, I know I should put something witty here, but my brain is so broken from listening to this banging all day. It's been an entire day and the banging (and house shaking) never stopped. Even though, during this episode my landlord te...

Arrow 3X8: The Brave and the Bold

I am so glad I watched that Flash crossover episode, because I would have been very confused if I hadn't. Lol. I mean, it's not hard to confuse me, but still.

So we find the address of Boomerang Man (thanks, as usual, Felicity) and when we show up ARGUS is there. Fun. But we won't be deterred. However, Boomer sets a trap and Lyla ends up getting injured while Oliver and Barry are away. Eventually Barry shows up and runs her to the hospital. She's fine and Dig proposes (again, I assume)....

9-1-1 4X3: Future Tense

As someone who is fairly concerned about the AI robots and computers taking over, this was a scary episode for me. Lol.

We got to see Hen in an actual medical school environment, which was awesome. But we also got that bitch who seems to be out to get her, which is less awesome. But I totally (well not totally) called that she had cancer and that's why she was in med school. Also, you can't be mean to Hen. Hen is a delight. Show some respect.

I also totally called that we were goi...

One Tree Hill 6X7: Messin' With the Kid

I did not really enjoy this episode. I love Lucas and Peyton, but this was just stupid and ridiculous. At the end, Peyton was all, I had fun playing around with you, but I didn't feel that. And I didn't have fun watching it.

Also, I do not care about Owen the bartender wanting back in Brooke's life. (Can someone tell me if he was also a Slam Ball guy? I'm 100% sure he was talking to Nathan when he went to watch a game, but why is no one talking about this? Am I wrong?)

I hate that...

The 100 4X7: Gimme Shelter

I feel like this episode was weaker than the rest in this season so far, however, the end totally made up for it. Emori, that was brilliant.

So much of this episode was centered around the rain, which I get is important for the timeline going forward, but I think we could have had more storylines going on.

That said, we did get some amazing stuff in this episode. As we mentioned early, Emori's acting was brilliant. I did not guess, for second that this is what she had planned, ho...

It is Loud Over Here

I don't typically react on Fridays any more. However, with being away and trying to play catch up, and the olympics being on (I typically take off for big gymnastics events- but now I work for me- so I've been working around it); I'm a little behind.

All this to say, I didn't know they were ripping up my roof today and it is LOUD here. I'm on the top floor and it sounds (and feels) like my ceiling is about to cave in. You guys also know that I don't leave my air conditioner on because I...

Surprise! The Flash 1X8: Flash vs. Arrow

So a few weeks ago, Sabrina, our Arrow sponsor, suggested I watch this crossover episode along with this week's episodes of Arrow. And here we are!

This was actually really easy to follow for someone who doesn't watch The Flash. It was also really fun. It seems quite similar to Arrow.

Anyway, our team shows up in Central City to see if they can help with this boomerang from the previous episode (which I don't actually think we ever got an answer on) and end up helping The Flash an...

Friday Nights Lights 4X2: After the Fall

I think this was another really get episode of season four. It's off to a bang in my opinion.

The reaction from the team after Eric's forfeit was perfect. Last episode, I was like, oh, it's understandable, the team is so beat up. But after listening to Landry's explanation, I was totally on the team's side. He didn't even ask or check with them. Just decided on his own.

A lot of this episode was spent with Eric trying to get the team to come back, since they all quit on him. And i...

Shameless 6X9: A Yurt of One's Own

It doesn't really seem that crazy to me that Debbie wants to stay at the commune. However, I feel like she might be in for a rude awakening once she has the baby. She's currently living a fairly luxurious life since she's in the maternity tent, but once that baby in born, what happens? And what are they gonna do to it? Why are they so pro baby? I'm concerned.

Fiona seems like she finally getting divorced, but part of the deal is that she needs to give the ring back, which is still sitti...

The Vampire Diaries 1X8: 162 Candles

Ugh. I think I would have liked Lexi as a character. It's annoyed that they killed her off immediately. I mean, it totally works to make Damon the villain, but I loved how she made Stefan happy. He seems to think that Elena will make him happy, but he doesn't really seem happy when he's around her. He totally seemed happy when he was with Lexi. I'm hoping that Lexi's conversation with Elena will end up working to get the two of them together. But now, Stefan is the one who want to stay away a...

Stranger Things 3X1: Chapter One: Suzie, Do You Copy?

I definitely got a little confused on the timeline. But I did think was a lovely season premiere. If only because there wasn't a ton of stuff to figure out. (You know, except the timeline and all the stuff I was confused about).

But it was so much fun to just watch these kids get a chance to act like children and not have to worry about the weight of the world being on their shoulders. However, I'm guessing that's not too far off.

El and Mike are together and spending a ton of tim...

Arrow 3X7: Draw Back Your Bow

Okay, so neither Oliver or Roy are doing particularly well right now. But, of course, neither of them are willing to admit it or ask for help.

Oliver is upset because he thinks Felicity is dating Ray (which, yes, is upsetting, but if you tell her the two of you can't date, you can't be upset when she dates someone else). Roy is still struggling with the fact that he killed someone, even if it was under the influence of Mirakuru.

So our villain of the week, is a continuation of the...

9-1-1 4X2: Alone Togehter

OMG. I enjoyed this episode so much more than I did the previous one. I'm not even sure what it was that I didn't like so much before, but this episode was lovely.

Chim delivering the baby and listening to her say all the things about her pregnancy that she hated to do alone. And Chim realizing that he and Maddie would be better together than apart was a delight. Although, I feel kind of silly for completely agreeing with the reasons they were apart just before I watched the episode and...

Outlander 5X1: The Fiery Cross

Okay, so Brianna and Roger are married for real. Fun.

Of course, fucking Tryon has to show up and tell Jamie that it's time to go on a Regulator hunt. Can we just not have one moment's peace in this family, please?

I'm super curious about how this is gonna play out between Jamie and Murtagh. Obviously, he tells Murtagh to get gone, so he doesn't have to arrest and kill him, but he's also going to be actively looking for him with an army of people. No idea how that is going to wor...

One Tree Hill 6X6: Choosing My Own Way of Life

I liked this episode. It was nice to get a bit of a break from the crazy drama that's been going on. And even thought some not so great stuff happened this episode too, it was all sort of balanced out by some nice cozy stuff as well.

So, Luca's book tour is canceled. But he gets to spend the day with Mouth (who's kind of a big deal in Omaha). I don't think people not showing up to his tour means all that much, honestly. I buy a zillion books. I've been to one book signing. Just because ...

The 100 4X6: We Will Rise

What the hell are we supposed to do now? At least last episode when the ship blew up, we still had the Nightblood solution. Now, with that most likely unavailable as well, I have no idea where we go from here.

Why does Octavia always have the power to make me feel emotional? Her scenes were so good this episode. She flipped from being angry at Bellamy, to emotionless, to pure anguish at the thought of Lincoln. Ugh.

Are we supposed to be suspicious of Niylah? I honestly can't tell....

Felicity 3X17: The Last Summer Ever

So, I definitely thought, for sure, we've been setting up a Felicity/Ben/Noel triangle. That is so not what happened. I mean they did sort of leave it open for something to happen, but I was kind of disappointed.

Ben and Felicity were supposed to spend the summer camping, but then Ben decided to take an intensive EMT course for the summer. Okay. So now Felicity is home alone at the loft all summer. Noel is graduating and moving to Seattle for his first job. But ooops, no he's not. Turns...
