9-1-1 3X14: The Taking of Dispatch 9-1-1

I'm a little afraid this is a fan favorite, that I am going to get some flack for not enjoying that much.

I assume this was a take on The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, which I've never seen. I'm not much of a movie person, let alone a heist movie person. I'm sure there was a ton of stuff that went over my head that made it better, but I have no idea what it was.

Anyway, 9-1-1 gets taken over by a bunch of fake cops (one of which is the guy who beat up Josh on his online date) in...

Outlander 4X6: Blood of My Blood

This episode was kind of, meh. I think I just need some time for Jamie and Claire to be together. It wasn't really bad, per se. Just not what I was looking for this episode, especially after them being apart for last episode as well (although, I enjoyed that episode much more).

So John is back and has brought Willie with him. He claims they are traveling nearby and thought he'd stop over and see Jamie. He and Claire have a bit of tension though, as they are both in love with the same ma...

Arrow 2X22: Streets of Fire

We're got a cure! But of course, it's stolen before we can get to it.

However, once he get to Blood, he basically just hands it over (which enrages Slade), but he's still got the balls to think that when this is all over, he's still gonna be mayor. What is this dude smoking? (I'm not sure I've ever used that phrase before, but I'm gonna go with it).

And Slade was, indeed, pissed. He sends Isabel over to kill Blood. One bad guy out of the way, hundreds more to go.

While they...

One Tree Hill 5X16: Cryin' Won't Help You Now

I'm glad to see that pretty much everyone's reaction to the news that Dan is dying, is that he's lying. Lol. That said, it probably means it true. And that said, I'm sure he won't actually die. Grrr.

While, I'm not sure there is any right answer, I really hope that Jamie doesn't wear Nathan and Haley down and get them to agree to let him see Dan. Honestly, from Jamie's perspective all he sees and understands is that the grandpa he loves, he isn't allowed to see and he's too little to un...

The 100 3X14: Red Sky at Morning

Ahhh! This is insane!

Allie realizes that someone is trying to override (? I don't know or remember the proper hacking terminology) her code. Jaha tells her if it's Monty, he can stop him. His mom starts talking to him, but after some deliberation, Monty deletes her code. Raven keeps working and finds a kill switch for Allie, but just as she's about to execute it, Allie pulls herself from the mainframe. Monty is distraught that he erased his mother and they didn't even accomplish thei...

Shameless 6X3: The F Word

OMG. In what universe (at least in current day) is a parents excited and happy that their teenage daughter is pregnant. AND thrilled to take her to the welfare office to learn how to scam the system?!? Come on, Frank!

Fiona has no idea who the father of the baby is, but after an argument with Debbie, she decides to go break up with him for good and give him back the ring. However, when she shows up at his gig, she finds he's written a song about how much she sucks, and ends up leaving b...

The Vampire Diaries 1X2: The Night of the Comet

Ugh. I can already tell that I'm going to spend a ton of time screaming at Damon in the future. He seems like a character who's just here to fuck shit up. And they drive me crazy! I'm hoping that he turns into a bit of a more complex villain over time. I love a good villain, but he seems a little one note, as of yet.

But I will admit, it is fun to watch him and Stefan in the same scene. Mostly because I'm rooting for Stefan to kill him, but still. Lol.

I cannot figure out of vamp...

Friday Night Lights 3X9: Game of the Week

I enjoyed this episode. If you haven't noticed, I tend to like the ones that focus more on football. Lol.

So, this week's game is getting national attention. After not doing super well in the first half, Eric puts Matt in at wide receiver. And between him, and Tim, the manage to pull out a victory. (Plus Matt threw a block that was awesome, but also scary when you think back to Jason and how this show started). They ended up winning by a small margin.

Totally knew that Cash was s...

Stranger Things 2X7: Chapter Seven: The Lost Sister

So, El goes to Chicago to find the girl in the Rainbow Room. She's hanging with a gang of misfits intent on killing everyone who was involved in the lab. They use El to find the guy who did shock therapy on Terry. At his house, Kali tells El to kill him and El is doing it, when she realizes he's got kids and stops. Kali goes to shoot him, but El makes the gun fly out the window.

It's soon discovered the the kids (who are in the house) called 9-1-1 and the police are on the way. The gang...

9-1-1 3X13: Pinned

Things are so not going well for Michael right now. I don't blame him for being upset and cranky based on what's going on, but it's hard for everyone around him. Especially when, before they even get to the campsite, he's in pain. And, the minute they get there, he needs to lie down for an hour.

After Chim's brother suggests there isn't any passion in his relationship with Maddie, he takes her out to a fancy dinner to tell her he loves her. She agrees that she feels the same way, but is...

Outlander 4X5: Savages

Is it just me, or did something seem a little off between Claire and Jamie in the beginning of this episode? I can't figure out exactly what it is, but it's something, I think.

For as much as Claire and Jamie were apart this episode, I quite enjoyed it. I'm surprised. But, still, we know that them being apart only causes chaos.

While Claire is delivering a baby, the inhabitants of the house, go crazy because Cherokee are using a creek in on their property to hydrate their horses. ...

Arrow 2X21: City of Blood

Wow. Things sure happen quickly when your opponent dies. Both Moira's funeral (which Oliver didn't attend), and Blood's swearing in ceremony happen simultaneously. Laurel goes to her dad and tells him she's sure something off about Blood. They end up bugging (?) his computer and find out he knew Moira was gonna die before she did, so obviously he was working with Slade.

Oliver decides he's going to turn himself over to Slade to protect everyone else. (Which is a terrible idea, the city ...

One Tree Hill 5X15: Life is Short

I really thought with all the talking Lucas and Lindsay were doing, this was gonna end up going another way. Does this mean we are officially shutting the door on this relationship? I know I mentioned earlier about how Lucas loves to be in love, but I also think he's lonely. Karen and Lily have been gone for awhile, and he keeps repeating to Lindsay that this is her home. Plus, he's got Brooke and the baby staying overnight because he thinks it's nice to have company. I wonder how much is him...

The 100 3X13: Join or Die

Remember when Ally was all about free will? I guess that only works if the people are doing what you want in the first place. They got Raven by torturing her, Abby by trying to kill Raven, and now Kane by threatening to kill Abby. We are running out of non chipped people!

Pike is in jail for refusing the chip, and it turns out, so is Indra, and she's out for revenge. I was a little disappointed when John stopped her though. I think he's right, but I was so ready for some sweet vengeance...

Felicity 3X14: The Break Up Kit

Molly is back! Yay! And promptly burns Elena's eyes so she's walking around blind for most of this episode. Oops. On the plus side, she ends up dating a really sweet guy who she probably wouldn't have agreed to a date with if she could see.

Felicity thought she was just giving Ben some time, but then realizes she thinks he broke up with her. Noel shows up to comfort her with a 'break up kit'. While he's busy making her beef stew, she realizes that she needs to go tell Ben how she feels....

The Vampire Diaries 1X1: Pilot

So, The Vampire Diaries is finally here! I think I did a pretty decent job of not comparing it to Buffy. (I actually think I did more comparing to True Blood, but still, I'm pretty proud of myself!)

Okay, so, Stefan looks like a cross between Tyler Hoechlin, and Matt Bomer. This is a good thing. Lol. Anyway, we're definitely setting him up to be the 'good vampire.' I'm assuming that his brother, Damon is going to try to convince him to come back to a traditional vampire way of life. And...

Friday Night Lights 3X8: New York, New York

So, when Jason left for NYC, I really thought he already had the job as a sport's agent. I didn't realize he was upending his entire life for an interview (which he didn't even really have that). This is a terrible idea. I'd say it worked out, but I don't think it did. You cannot live on $40,000 anywhere in the vicinity of New York without several roommates. This is either going to be very unrealistic, or end very badly.

It feels like we're gonna have some friction between Eric and J.D....

Shameless 6X2: #AbortionRules

In what universe does a bag of flour constitute being equal to a baby that screams, cries, needs to be changed, needs to eat, needs to sleep, and needs attention? This just proves how not ready Debbie is to have a baby. Also, what high school lets you bring your baby with you? If I were one of the other students, I'd riot.

Also, I cannot believe that what Debbie took from that conversation with the nail salon girl (you know I have no idea what her name is). Instead of realizing he doesn...

Arrow 2X20: Seeing Red

OMG. What was this episode?! And I mean that in the most positive way possible!

Roy is just losing his mind from the Mirakuru. He's gone on a complete rampage. Sara has decided she needs to shoot him in the head. Oliver tells her no. When the time comes, Sin gets between Sara and shot and Oliver manages to shoot him with pit viper venom to sedate him.

Sara, upset that she was willing to kill Roy, leaves Oliver and says she's going to see an old friend. I hope it's not Malcolm.

9-1-1 3X12: Fools

I don't know if this was my favorite episode. And I enjoyed this episode. Which, says a lot about this show. Even an 'average' episode is so good!

I was surprised that Eddie was so upset about Christopher falling. Yes, Christopher is his entire world (and yes, the aftermath actually did look kind of bad), but I didn't expect that kind of reaction out of him. Things have been hard for him lately (all our friends, really), but he's not usually one to take things out on other people. I thi...

Outlander 4X4: Common Ground

This was such a good episode. But I feel like all these episodes are good.

We just knew that Claire would love living this way. And Jamie looks so happy to be able to build (quite literally) a life for Claire. Especially after last episode when he admitted that he didn't have anything to offer her.

Nights were scary though! First we thought the Cherokee were attacking, then we were convinced it was bear. It turns out, it was both. A banished Cherokee was running around crazed in a...

One Tree Hill 5X14: What Do You Go Home To?

I kind of love the opening of this episode. I love getting to see what everyone thinks about first thing in the morning.

We are getting some follow up from last episode. Haley shows up at Peyton's office and asks if she'll manage her, Nathan tries to go back to the gym, Brooke ends up hosting a baby who's here for surgery. You knew it was gonna be much easier for Haley to get back into music than Nathan for basketball and we see that clearly in this episode.

Quintin is being horr...

The 100 3X12: Demons

I started off this episode thinking it wasn't gonna be that great. And by the end, I was blown away. This show has no right to be this good. Lol.

So, Arkadia is basically abandoned as everyone is now in the City of Light. But when we get there to retrieve Lincoln's journal, we find Emerson there wanted revenge for what Clarke did at Mount Weather.

After he kills Sinclair (which is super sad), he holds everyone hostage and makes Clarke watch while he attempts to kill them. Thankfu...

July 8-12

Hello, hello!

This week we are starting The Vampire Diaries! I know nothing about it. I assume there are vampires (but don't tell me!). This comes out on Tuesday and Thursday for $15/tier and up, and Tuesdays only for $10/tier and up.

We also finish S2 of True Blood this week. I was not sold on this show until the last few episodes, but it's been getting better and better each episode.

Also, the end of seasons are looming for both Arrow and The 100. But both have already bee...

Arrow 2X19: The Man Under the Hood

So the real truth is that I'm trying to get ahead, so this explanation (if you wanna call it that), will be brief.

I was totally fooled. I 100% thought it was gonna be Slade giving his blood to all the convicts, not Roy. I hate this for him.

Is Isabel dead? I'm confused about this. It seems like she's dead, but then Slade did....something. It seemed important, but I don't know what it was. (Don't tell me).

Laurel tries to tell Quintin about Oliver being the Arrow but he does...

True Blood 2X7: Release Me

Oh, I think this was my favorite episode so far. This is one of those shows that literally has just been getting better and better as it's gone on. I don't know how much I was enjoying it when it started, but I'm so all in now.

So, Maryann is literally just causing chaos and upheaval because it's fun for her. I've spent so much time thinking about why she's doing this. What's her end game? And the answer is just, fun. I'm not sure if I love this or hate it. And she's somehow both God an...

9-1-1 3X11: Seize the Day

Chim's half brother is here! He wasn't so thrilled at first (he was actually mean- I don't think I've ever seen Chim be mean), but eventually they have a chat and work it out. It looks like he'll be staying for awhile.

Ugh. So the radiation didn't do as much for Michael as we'd hoped. The tumor hasn't gotten any bigger, but it hasn't shrunk at all either. And then, after a conversation with May, he decides he's not going to go through with the brain surgery. This is so not what May mean...

Outlander 4X3: The False Bride

So this episode was half Jamie and Claire, and half Brianna and Roger. I assumed I'd be annoyed by this, but it turns out, I was fairly charmed by Brianna and Roger.

The episode was basically just Jamie and Claire deciding not to accept River Run and traveling west to find a place to live. During a rainstorm, Jamie and Claire get separated (which we all know means disaster), and her horse gets spooked by lightening, throwing her off and knocking her out. When she comes to, she sees an ...

One Tree Hill 5X13: Echoes, Silence, Patience, and Grace

I feel like this was a very odd episode. No one was interacting with each other. Everything was super separate and set apart. I guess that sort of makes sense if the episode is going to focus on individual hopes, dreams, and desires, but still!

So we've got Nathan wishing to play basketball again (I had no idea this was even a possibility. but I'm so investing now), Haley wanted to be more involved in music again (which seems totally feasible with the amount of money they have), Brooke ...

The 100 3X11: Nevermore

Okay. I think this is my favorite season of The 100 thus far. I have no idea if this is popular or not (I'm certainly not looking it up now), but every episode is better than the one before.

I loved the previous episode because we had so many different subplots and they were all amazing. In this episode, we really only had one plot, and it was hella intense.

To make a long story short, we are attempting to free Raven using her original idea. She's super Alley throughout the whole ...
