Vimeo

So, I'm totally out of storage on Patreon and need to use a different hosting service. Patreon suggested Vimeo so that's what we're going with.

The new videos via that will start going up tomorrow, Wednesday, May 15. You guys know I suck at technology, but I think it's gonna be a mostly smooth transition. I already have a few videos scheduled on it and I don't think it's really any different.

But please! If I've messed something up, let me know!

Felicity 3X6: One Ball, Two Strikes

I so did not think we were going here with Sean. Even though I think it'll turn out that he's totally fine, I'm surprised with this turn of events. I do love that Megan is actually really worried about him. It feel odd that the two of them have the healthiest relationship on this show right now.

So, it's not just a one time transgression with Elena. It looks like this may be an ongoing affair. Sigh. And why the hell wouldn't Tracy tell her Finn was his partner?!?

Was not a fan of ...

Friday Night Lights 2X6: Pantherama

I so don't believe that Matt would kiss Carlotta and then be happy about it all while having a girlfriend. I don't see him being okay with that after the Julie situation.

And speaking of Julie, I really don't want to doing a student/teacher romance. But we do need to give Julia more to do, so I like her being on the newspaper. I also love that she wrote this particular article. You just knew Eric was gonna be pissed about it. But it was timey and relevant.

Totally get both sides o...

Better Call Saul 5X9: Bad Choice Road

I cannot believe how good this episode was. I was so ready to be let down after the masterpiece that was last episode.

I'm not entirely sure how this protects Gus' business, but I don't care. It just so awesome to watch. That scene with Kim coming to Jimmy's defense with Lalo was a thing of beauty.

Speaking of Kim, she quit and decided to work just on pro bono clients. I'm not sure why Jimmy is so pissed about that, but he is. She also knows he's lying and STILL sent to bat for hi...

9-1-1 2X6: Dosed

OMG. If I were Bobby I would have lost my shit way more than this. Can you imagine, fighting to stay sober and then have someone slip you not even pot brownies, but ACID laced brownies? Plus this all happened on his daughter's birthday! And to make it even worse, she really thought she was doing something nice for them!

I really hated that reporter. And I really, really hated (although story-wise I loved it) that she wanted to use all that high footage because it would be better for he...

Outlander 2X6: Best Laid Schemes...

And yet another person is totally on board with Claire's story. It's interesting how everyone in the 1700s is more willing to accept it than Frank was. I mean, he did, but it took much more convincing it seems like.

And yet another instance of a plan going correctly, but then something else happening to screw it up. Here, we have the small pox symptoms working, but they find out in enough time to hide it, so now we have to steal the wine. I didn't get what was happening there until way ...

Arrow 1X19: Unfinished Business

So we've got 'new' Vertigo which is Oliver's vendetta because of Thea and Deadshot, who is Diggle's because of his brother. There were some nice, interesting parallels between the two in this episode. But a lot of this Count story I didn't really care about.

I have no idea why Tommy is so pissed off. I get that he could feel this way, but he didn't. So what changed? Also, it seems odd that he would keep all this from Oliver. Why not just be like, hey man, we need to fix the ventilation....

One Tree Hill 4X11: Everything In Its Right Place

This episode was a little disappointing. I think it's my own fault though. I said I wanted a more light hearted episode. They gave that to me, and I was upset that they didn't dig more into the 'meat' of the story right now. So it turns out, I don't know what I want. Lol.

Luke recovered really, really quickly. I'm glad to see that Haley isn't back to her normal life just yet because that would have felt pretty far fetched. Speaking of Haley, she is too good for this world. Her greatest ...

The 100 2X4: Many Happy Returns

So much happened in this episode!

It seems very obvious that Anya is dead. If I were putting down bets, I'd guess that Jaha lives, but I'm not really sure why they'd just bash him with a club and ride away.

I assume this 'dead zone' is going to come up again. This show, much like Arrow, seems to produce some answers, but they just lead to more questions!

And I need to know what the hell is going on at Mount Weather. Now we know they track certain people, but not others. But ...

May 13-17

We're finding our way to the end of Better Call Saul (which I don't think anyone is watching- but I love it)! Next week we start the last season, so I'll be putting up a poll in the next two weeks or so to decide what to replace it with. I'm thinking something somewhat close in tone, things like: Sons of Anarchy, Fargo, Barry, etc (but I'm totally open to suggestions so let me know!

There's a bunch of other stuff I want to watch too (my list is so long), so if you guys are not into thi...

True Blood 1X11: To Love Is To Bury

Ugh. I mean, I haven't seen a lot of newborn vampires in this series, but is Jessica the most annoying one of all? My god. I'd want to leave her too if I were Bill.

I feel bad for Jason here. He really wanted a nice, normal, drug free life with Amy (I finally learned her name!) and she convinced him to do it one more time and now she's dead. And he just assumes he did it, because this is now the 3rd time a girl he's been in bed with has died! He's all like, I don't know what I did, but ...

9-1-1 2X5: Awful People

This was such a good episode. I really, really loved it. Probably of no surprise to anyone that I go off on a bit of a tangent about 'awful people' and what that means at the end.

I loved all the Maddie stuff so much. Also, I love that they made it pretty much immediately apparent that Gloria was not actually good at her job. How she got away with that for so long is beyond me. And they basically only found out by chance.

Plus, I really liked the ending when Maddie called Athena ...

Arrow 1X18: Salvation

Ooh, I really enjoyed the villain of the week this episode!

Okay, so Roy does look like he's going to be a love interest for Thea. I'm super curious about what's up with him. I'm still going with guess that he's another one of Malcolm's kids and that he abandoned him. Hopefully that means he's sticking around. And it seems like Felicity is too! She hasn't mentioned how 'she's only doing this for Walter' in a couple of episodes and is just acting like part of the team.

Speaking of...

Outlander 2X5: Untimely Resurrection

So the dinner party plan worked, but now we have an even bigger problem to deal with. We've got to work with the Count now and actively help raise this money. That seems like a much harder problem to deal with. I mean, if we can just fake small pox and destroy the shipment, sure, but then we'll just have another problem to deal with. Sigh.

I cannot be the only one who was thrilled with everyone mocking Randall, right? It was so nice to see him embarrassed for once. Also, I just looked u...

One Tree Hill 4X10: Songs to Love and Die By

My god this show is trying to kill me. There is a ton of ugly crying. Sorry in advance. Lol.

I didn't realize how much I missed Keith. I hope we can find other ways to bring him back. But this really means that he's dead. Somewhere in the back of my mind I think I was holding out hope that somehow he'd survived. (Crazier things have happened in Tree Hill).

You know, I didn't put much thought into Brooke potentially having survivors guilt. I know she's talked about how she wished t...

The 100 2X3: Reapercussions

Dude. This episode was so good.

I was really thinking that we might all end up at the same place soon, but then I realized that's probably not going to happen. We don't really know where the Grounder sent Bellamy's group, Clarke is being brought to the Grounders camp, I think, Kane's group is just wandering about, Octavia is on her own since the Grounders thought she fought well enough not to kill her, Lincoln is at Mount Weather, and I don't know where the hell Jaha is. Everyone is so ...

Better Call Saul 5X8: Bagman

This was my favorite episode. Everything about it was perfect.

Shameless 4X9: The Legend of Bonnie and Carl

Am I the only one who feels like Fiona is not taking responsibility for this? I get making a mistake. And I get trying to put it behind you and move on, but it feels like she really feels like none of this was her fault. I'm glad that she's getting some consequences though. That said, she's really playing fast and loose with this house arrest. Why would you cut it so close to 6pm?

Ha. I kind of love Sheila coming home and not really caring that all her stuff is gone and these strangers ...

Friday Night Lights 2X6: How Did I Get Here

I mean, yes, Eric probably should have talked salary, but in al honesty, I would have just assumed I'd be getting the same amount as before. But I'm not sure they should have expected a raise, even though he's the State Championship coach. Either way, they totally lied and said athletic director does nothing and he's immediately yelled at and has demands put on him. Something needs to be figured out here. And quickly.

So Jason did get his job back, which is awesome, because he's really ...

Stranger Things 1X6: Chapter Six: The Moster

So, Nancy lives! Is she the first? I have no idea.

How did I not anticipate MK Ultra?!? I feel like an idiot. Did you guys all assume that when you watched for the first time? But either way, I feel like we've got actual, concrete evidence of child experimentation.

I got a very clear Halloween visual in this episode. Lol.

Eleven to the rescue! Mike, 100% would have been dead if he jumped off that cliff and hit the water. Am I the only one who LOVED Dustin screaming at the bu...

The 100: 2X2: Inclement Weather

So, it took a bit, but I'm now completely convinced Jaha hallucinated baby Wells in an attempt to force him off the Ark and onto Earth. That said, I don't think he's close to anyone else. I was annoyed when the rest of the Ark landed near The 100, but I want Jaha to land near people!

Holy shit! I mean, I knew Clarke was probably right, but I so didn't expect it to be to this capacity. What the hell are they doing to these people? I have so many questions! I'm feeling like, maybe, Clarke...

Arrow 1X17: The Huntress Returns

This wasn't my favorite episode. Again, because there are so many other things I'm interested in and curious about, that I did not need Helena to steal that time. Lol.

But even if Felicity is only tangentially involved, I'm happy about it. Not that I love her getting tied up and forced to do stuff against her will, but I'll take her anyway I can get her!

So Oliver and McKenna are no more. Cool. More opportunity for him to end up with Felicity. Are you guys tired of me harping on ...

9-1-1 2X4: Stuck

Carla is back! I love this woman. I want her on the show as a regular. How do we make that happen? I also love that she's here to help Eddie, who Buck has sought out for him. I really love the friendship that the two of them have sort of struck up.

I'm 100% cool with Athena turning down the promotion. It's probably what I would have done too. I think we're all too busy striving for more and have a hard time appreciating what we already have. And I love that Bobby is totally on board wi...

Outlander 2X4:La Dame Blanche

A special thank you to Heather for giving me a quick cheat sheet of who everyone is and how they are related. ❤️

Am I the only one who was super happy that Jamie was THRILLED that Randall was still alive? It was so nice to see him happy. For any reason.

I for one, would love to see Jamie behead the Count. Even just for the hell of it. But if he's literally attempting to poison Claire and arranging to have her and her companions attacked, even more reason. But seriously, he's t...

One Tree Hill 4X9: Some You Give Away

Ugh. Am I the only one who freaks out when we get a black intro? I can't be, right?

I've been fairly sure that Haley is gonna lose this baby for a while now. It's gonna be here. Especially after she told Nathan she was having a boy. They were just too happy about it. Ultimately, I feel like Haley will be fine, but Nathan will have to tell the doctors to sacrifice the baby to save Haley.

Speaking of Nathan, I love that he decided that he loved the team, and Tree Hill more than hims...

Felicity 3X5: Surprise

Ugh. This sucked for Ben. He went out of his way to plan a lovely birthday for Felicity (and you knew it was gonna end up poorly for him because of this) and then he saw the naked picture of Felicity in the email. No matter what Felicity says, I don't really think it matter if she did or didn't sleep with that frat guy (minus STDs of course). It's just the fact that she could end up in that situation and not tell him. But take this with a grain of salt as I've never been in this situation. 2024-05-07 23:51:34 +0000 UTC View Post

Friday Night Lights 2X5: Let's Get It On

I think maybe it was a little too easy to convince Jason to skip the surgery. Also, it seemed like it was mostly his decision and I'm not sure how much influence either Tim or Lyla actually had on it.

Landry on the team is awesome. It came a little out of nowhere, but I guess Eric is better at seeing talent than that other coach. I'd much prefer to watch Landry play football than try to deal with the fact that he killed Tyra's attacker. But honestly, all his scenes in this episode were ...

Shameless 4X8: Hope Spring Paternal

I'm very happy that Lip and Fiona have seemed to finally figure out their issues. We have enough problems in this family without the two of them being at odds as well. That said, I don't think what Lip had the kids doing this episode was any better than what Fiona was doing with Liam overdosed. Maybe he realized that and it's part of what made him bring Liam home.

It seems like Mickey might finally be willing say he likes Ian and not continually be a dick about it. He actually told peop...

Better Call Saul 5X7: JMM

So Kim and Jimmy actually went ahead and got married. And he almost immediately tells her about Lalo and how he can be a 'friend of the cartel' if he gets him out on bail.

Kim first apologizes to Kevin and then decides to tell him most of this is on him because he kept rejecting their advice. Turns out, he likes that and they are gonna keep working together. I don't really understand Kim. It seems like she hates working for Mesa Verde, but every time she has an out, she refuses to take ...

The 100 2X1: The 48

I am definitely suspicious (and seriously curious) of these people. No one else seems concerned, but it looks like Clarke has decided to going along with things and 'play nice' until she can figure out what's going on. But I'm with her. You can't tell me I'm not a prisoner, and then refuse to let me leave. It doesn't work that way. Plus, they told Clarke they searched and found no other survivors, but there are a ton of people on the ground now due to the Ark.

And now I'm back to Kane b...
