Friday Night Lights 3X3: How the Other Half Lives

Ugh. I really, really thought Matt was gonna score and they were gonna win that game. He looked so utterly crushed when he realized he fumbled in the end zone. Plus, he's already got this pressure of being replaced by J.D. At least Julie was there to pick him up. I like that they are getting close again.

I understand both Eric's and Tami's POV on the bbq. (Which I think is part of why this show works so well, they both often have valid arguments for whatever it is they want to do, and y...

Stranger Things 2X4: Episode 4: Will the Wise

I'm not really sure what is happening in a ton of instances.

Here's what I get: the lab people are concerned with foreign nations having access to The Upsidedown; they are somehow able to cauterize (or similar) it to keep it from growing; Dart is growing and for whatever reason, they think it's a key to figuring out what's wrong with Will.

Questions I have: how does Will's tunnel system relate to the pumpkins?; Nancy recorded the scientist says the old members were gone- so what-...

9-1-1 3X4: Triggers

I feel bad for this episode. It's only real fault was that it came after the last two episodes. (I'm pretty sure I said the same thing after the earthquake episodes as well).

Buck's light duty is him being the fire inspector, which I thought was super fun. Turns out, maybe not so much. I HATE that we're going with Buck suing the city, department, and BOBBY. WTF? Plus, if he does this, he's gonna have to be completely alone. Every single person he interacts with is connected to the 118.<...

Arrow 2X2: Tremors

Roy is in the fold! I feel like I've been waiting so long for this! Plus the scene of him slapping water was fairly delightful.

How did I forget (again) that Thea is Malcolm's daughter? Maybe I just so badly don't want it to be true, that I keep blocking it out. But either way, I don't like Moira's 'he'll need to be dealt with,' about the OBGYN who knows that Thea's not Robert's daughter. That was highly suspicious. And to Walter as well. Hmmm.

I, honestly, have no idea if people ...

Outlander 3X9: The Doldrums

No. No! NO! You cannot take her! I was worried this would happen. I cannot handle another several episodes where Jamie and Claire are apart. I want to bash my head on the desk.

Laoghaire's daughter looks just like her. They really cast that part well. But I don't really know how I feel about her and Fergus getting married. I sort of agree with Claire. She and Jamie didn't really know each other when they got married. And it's 1769 or something, so it doesn't really seem odd for the time...

One Tree Hill 5X6: Don't Dream It's Over

Head's up: my discussion at the end is loud, angry, and possibly unhinged. I blame the heat.

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

So all these dreams were confusing to me. I could never tell when we were awake or asleep!

I'm not sure if I'm happy or upset that I have new people to hate. Lol. I wanted to kick Victoria in the teeth, like 30 times. You'll hear, loudly, how pissed off I was at her dur...

The 100 3X4: Watch the Thrones

Oh god. Pike is gonna make a giant mess of things. Like we don't have enough problems already.

I'm a little confused about Lexa killing the Ice Nation queen, though. How does Lexa get to decide she wants to kill her, than appoint her son as the new king of Ice Nation, and everyone just goes along with it? Why aren't the Ice Nation people upset that Lexa killed their queen? And if it's because they hated her too, why were they all so eager to go along with her?

I get Bellamy feeli...

Felicity 3X11: And to All a Good Night

This episode seemed weird to me. It felt like a bunch of stuff was thrown into this episode that weren't really needed.

What was Felicity's mom doing here? Was it just to remind us about Noel, so we could go back to the Team Ben and Team Noel stuff? I feel like we're headed back there.

And why are Megan and Sean beefing about whose idea it was to sell trees? This just seems like the stupidest fight. What is happening here?

But the best part of this episode (as it has been fo...

Shameless 5X8: Uncle Carl

Dude. I kind of loved this episode.

The Ian stuff was great, as per usual. Big fan of this storyline for both him and Mickey. And I loved the scene at the end where Mickey shows up, apologizes for being late, and just crawls into bed with Ian.

Carl's/Chuckie's story was great as well. But honestly, I like psycho Sammi, much better than annoying Sammi. But, the whole family being pissed off when she called the cops on Carl was kind of delightful. Like, WTF Sammi? Aren't you a membe...

Better Call Saul 6X9: Fun and Games

Of all the times I thought Kim was gonna leave in the past, now is when she decides?!? I was one zillion percent not expecting this. I figured they were gonna want to stick together more than ever now. AND, not only is she leaving Jimmy, but she's also leaving the law!

Somehow, after everything that's happened, this all worked out for Gus.

And we end the episode in all of our Saul Goodman glory. I have no idea how much time has passed, but it must have been fairly significant as S...

Friday Night Lights 3X2: Tami Knows Best

Did we know that Matt's mother was alive? I cannot remember. But either way, it looks like Matt is now an emancipated minor. Which is good for right now, but probably won't be next year when he wants to go to college.

When I started watching this show, I would never have believed that the mayor would show up and tell the school principal to spend more money on a TV than on educating the student. But now, after living in Dillion for two plus seasons, I totally believe it. I have a feelin...

Arrow 2X11: Blind Spot

Ugh. Poor Laurel. Yes, she probably does have some addiction issues right now, but that does't mean that everything she believes is not true. She can both be addicted to pills AND sure that Blood is up to no good.

Especially since he went to a hell of a lot of trouble to make sure no one could find about about his past.

And Laurel is now fired. I don't know if she'll end up getting her job back or if she'll land somewhere else, but either way, it's got to be fairly humiliating for...

Outlander 3X8: First Wife

Are you kidding me?!? Fine. Jamie got married. I get it. BUT DID IT HAVE TO BE LAOGHAIRE? Come, on!

Now to be fair, the more Jamie explained, the more I melted at what he did, but still. Ahhhhh!

Plus, Jenny is not happy with Claire. This is a rough episode for Claire.

But Jamie got shot by that bitch Laoghaire, so maybe his episode was worse? But then again, Ian got taken by pirates, so maybe he got the worst of it?

What the hell happened this episode? There was no ha...

9-1-1 3X3: The Searchers

Lots of ugly crying by me in this episode. At least I wasn't delusional enough to think I might get through this one without a tear.

Buck trying to find Christoper in this episode was gut-wrenching. I have no idea how I made it through. Plus, him calling Maddie and asking her how he was supposed to tell his best friend he lost his child was heart breaking. This was Buck's episode. My god. And, through all this, I forgot that Buck wasn't really 100%. It was not fun to see him collapse wh...

One Tree Hill 5X5: I Forgot to Remember to Forget

Heads up: HBO ended this episode and tried to start the next one before this one was actually over, which means there is a bit of an edit in the middle. What is going on with HBO lately? Sorry about that.

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

We're getting college flashbacks! Huzzah! AND WE GOT WHITEY!

I knew that ring was for Peyton and not Lindsay. But she's totally gonna find it and it's gonn...

The 100 3X3: Ye Who Enter Here

OMG. This show just gets more and more intense somehow!

I have to stop trusting people in this show. I trusted Lexa and look what happened. Now, I trusted Echo and the entirety of Farm Station is dead. I so could not live this life. Plus, we just got them back. Sigh.

Poor Bellamy. He really thought he was doing the right thing. Now he just looks stupid. I feel really bad for him. I'm also curious to see how he handles the death of Gina. I feel like it's gonna be the opposite of Ja...

The Vampire Diaries

So, Better Call Saul is officially being replaced with The Vampire Diaries.

I know nothing about this show. Nor do I know anyone who has seen it (at least that I know of). And we know that I'm a fan of going into things completely blind, so this should be fun. (Although, I'm not sure how much you're gonna like all my Buffy comparisons at the beginning- I assume it's about vampires of some kind- but I was really bad at that when I started True Blood as well, but I'm better at not compari...

Schedule June 17-21

Hello, hello. Happy Sunday!

Also, on Saturday the 22nd, I'll be posting some of the Pride drunk re-watch stuff. I don't know exactly what it's going to be because I haven't filmed it yet, but it's coming.

We're about three weeks away from ending Better Call Saul. This will be replaced with The Vampire Diaries, which I know nothing about at all, but that's always fun for me.

Enjoy the rest of your weeend!

Happy Pride! Pride (2014)

So, I didn't even know this movie existed until Kayden suggested it. And I'm glad they did! I was lovely (but, you know, also terrible).

Since watching I may have done some Wikipedia-ing about this movie (you guys know my knowledge of history is tragic), and it turns out Jonathan is still alive in 2024. Also, it seems like Mark was heavily into the communist scene and they left that out of the plot of the movie, because they thought it would alienate audiences. Okay, but if it's based o...

True Blood 2X4: Shake and Fingerpop

Dude. I would have lost my shit way worse than Jason if I walked into that. I don't know ho wmuch credit I wanna give him right now, but the fact that he didn't murder anyone after that 'prank' says a lot. But Jason is in the special branch of the church right now. Go him?

Bill breaking out of his coffin the instant he feels a threat again Sookie is kinda hot. I'm not gonna lie. But I'm still lukewarm at best about the two of them being together. And Jessica's ordering hookers? Huh? Or ...

9-1-1 3X2: Sink or Swim

Maybe it's just me, but I think this was better than the earthquake episode. And I loved the earthquake episode.

This is totally gonna help Buck get back on the team, right? He's saved dozens of people!

I'm confused though. Is the car accident that Athena and May are in, related to the tsunami? Originally I thought no. Then I thought yes. Now I think no again. I'm sure it doesn't really matter, but still. I wanna know!

Poor Maddie. At least when she told Chim she was the one...

Arrow 2X10: Blast Radius

I'm sure you're tired of this, but this episode was so much fun!

Felicity is hanging out with Barry. We've got a serial bomber. And Blood is as crazy as ever.

So, we're having a giant rally (thanks, Blood) amidst all the bombing, which is a great idea. 🙄 No matter how many people tried to tell him this was a bad idea, he wouldn't back down. Thankfully, we've got Dig and Felicity (yes, she's back!) to the rescue.

And Thea is aware of Roy's super strength. He's totally gonn...

Outlander 3X7: Crème de Menthe

Okay, towards the end of my discussion, I get super annoyed that I cannot remember what important thing I needed to talk about. Well, as I type this up I remember (because it's the fucking title of the episode, Dana!). So, we seriously stuck a dead body in a drum of Crème de Menthe and then sold it! I mean Jamie does't know it's sold, and the boys don't know there's a body in it, but still! This is gonna get very messy.

Anyway, speaking of bodies, Claire (sweetheart that she is) tried ...

One Tree Hill 5X4: It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)

OMG. Yes, to Haley getting back into music. She's gonna be such a good producer. I can't believe it never occurred to me to have her and Peyton working together. I know they aren't super close, but this is a good idea! Although, we can already see the signs that Haley is taking on too much. She should quit the teaching job and just focus on working with Petyon, especially since it seems like they don't really need the money.

Ugh. I had Brooke's mom. I mean, I know I'm supposed to, but m...

The 100 3X2: Wanheda: Part Two

Farm Station has arrived! Complete with Monty's mom! And it seems like they will. be relocating ASAP to Arkadia. They've been living near Ice Nation territory and it's not done well for the numbers of their people.

Of, course Bellamy steals an Ice Nation uniform. That's completely his MO. Lol. Anyway, he manages to find Clarke, but is immediately attacked and Clarke offers her acquiescence to spare his life. He does, but stabs him in the thigh, forcing the group to return to Arkadia. 2024-06-14 16:01:24 +0000 UTC View Post

Shameless 5X7: Tell Me You Fucking Need Me

So, I guess I now know why we were all willing to follow Sammi's orders. Apparently, if you don't appreciate her enough, she shoots you. Got it. Also, I'm not sure if this scene was supposed to be funny, but I certainly thought it was.

Is anyone surprised that Jimmy lied to Fiona to get her back? I'm not. I don't know what this means for her marriage though. It seems like they might be willing to try to work through it.

Oh, Mickey. I felt for him in this episode. He looked awful. ...

Better Call Saul 6X8: Point and Shoot

OMG. How does this show get better every fucking episode?

So, Kim heads over to kill Gus on Lalo's instructions (well Jimmy was supposed to go, but he convinced Lalo to send Kim instead, while Jimmy remains zip tied to a chair next to the dead body of Howard. Lalo, meanwhile heads over to the cook site assuming (I think) that the guards would be pulled off and allocated to Gus' house.

Gus heads over the laundry as well and ends up in a beautiful scene with Lalo. Where eventually, ...

Friday Night Lights 3X1: I Knew You When

Ugh. So after all that, Smash ended up losing his scholarship anyway? That sucks so much. I'm pretty sure I heard him say that getting injured is not something that would happen to him. I feel bad for him. He worked so hard to find somewhere to pay after the TMU pulled his scholarship.

But Erica is still training Smash because he believes that if he wants to play football somewhere, the two of them are gonna make it happen.

And speaking of football, Matt's got some competition. Th...

Stranger Things 2X3: Chapter Three: The Pollywog

So, I don't know how I feel.

Dustin is obsessed with this larvae (?) that Will puked up after he came back from the Upside Down. I don't know what I think about this, but currently, it's sitting under Dustin's hat.

Nancy and Steve have broken up, which I'm totally cool with. I don't know if I feel like she belongs with Jonathan, but she certainly doesn't belong with Steve.

Do they know that the lab is tracking everyone's phone calls? I think that's the plan they are going fo...
