One Tree Hill 4X2: Things I Forgot at Birth

I just want to give Nathan a hug. Thank goodness he has Haley. I cannot imagine how he is still functioning at this point.

It certainly seems that Brooke is pregnant. However, they are really going out of their way to make it seem vague. But if it's Haley, they really played this wrong.

Also, fuck Dan. How dare he go to Karen and try to be there for her and help her. All this is his fucking fault. You're sorry now? Boo hoo. No one fucking cares. Go away. Oh, and maybe take Rachel ...

True Blood 1X8: The Fourth Man in the Fire

So, as expected, Bill is fine. He was literally buried underground? Then he and Suki have sex while he's completely covered in dirt. I'm not sure I'd enjoy that. Lol.

Jason and Lizzy Caplan (I do not know her character's name) seem to get along really well. But maybe that's the V. Actually, I was surprised when they woke up and she was alive. However, then we find out they didn't actually have sex, so the Jason mystery continues.

And Zach from Gilmore Girls (I do not know his name...

The 100 1X7: Contents Under Pressure

I think Clarke is going to start to feel the pressure of having to make hard decisions. She's constantly being tested between who she wants to be and the person she has to be in this new environment. That said, we did save Finn, so mission accomlished, I guess.

We are supposed to feel suspicious of Diana, right? Because I totally do.

Super curious abut what's going on with the grounder guy and why Octavia is important/special to him.

Also, I love the twist of only 700 peopl...

April 22-26

This isn't incredibly aesthetically pleasing either, but we're working on it. Lol.

We're spending the weekend at our friends' house. Fingers crossed I actually bring my wedding rings home this time and don't end up without them for 2 months again. Ha.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

9-1-1 1X6: Heartbreaker

This was probably my least favorite episode so far. But that said, it was still great! I know our sponsor, Lisa, (who BTW, just sponsored S2 as well!) said S1 is the weakest season, but I've really loved it all so far.

I'm not sure what I objected to exactly, though. So that means, it really wasn't bad, just not my favorite. But holy shit. That Abby and Buck scene at the restaurant was so intense!

Still unsure how I feel about Buck and Abby, but I'm just deciding to fall on, 'if t...

Arrow 1X9: Year's End

John Barrowman's name is Malcolm! And what the fuck? He's Hood Guy #2?!? Does he know Oliver is Hood Good #1? They had some pointedly suspicious conversation over dinner.

And what is the goal of this organization that plans to kill thousands of people? And how is Moira involved? Why do they think it's a good thing? Could this possibly be a misdirect that they are good people? (I 100% do not believe that, but there are so many questions!)

I really thought Walter was gonna die befor...

Outlander 1X12: Lallybroch

I don't know why I was so thrown by beginning-of-the episode Jenny. I was so sure she was going to be like end-of-the-episode Jenny the whole time. But I was really adamant about it. Sorry!

Loved, loved, loved Jamie doing the flashbacks, as hard as they were to watch. But it was perfect for his character and really balanced out what Claire had divulged last episode.

Also, I love that Jamie is always so willing to listen to Claire's point of view. But he doesn't always just accept ...

One Tree Hill 4X1: The Same Deep Water as You

I SCREAM, LOUDLY, IN THIS REACTION. TAKE PRECAUTIONS.

So Rachel (boo) and Nathan (yay!) are both fine. Rachel has made her way into the opening credits as expected (still boo). Still waiting for word on Cooper. That said, when I say Nathan is fine, I mean physically, not necessarily emotionally. Also, do we know if Nathan is an unreliable narrator? (Don't tell me- I seem to be saying that a lot lately).

I so do not care about Peyton's brother. Just like I didn't really care about ...

Shameless 4X3: Like Like Father, Like Daughter

You knew the second Robbie walked in, Fiona was gonna be all over him, right?

It was so uncomfortable to watch Frank with Samantha, knowing that he knew who she was, but she didn't know who he was. Also, what accent is she doing? Is it Chicago? None of the other characters sound like that.

Curious about Matt. I don't know what his deal is. But if he's 20 and willing to befriend a 13-year-old and hang out with her in his apartment alone, something's up with him.

I honestly ca...

Friday Night Lights 1X22: State

This was such a good season finale.

I can admit that the come-from-behind win was a little too easy, but I don't care. I totally bought in and was here for it.

Is Eric staying or going?!!? (Don't answer that). My guess is he goes, but totally under protest because Tami says it's what she wants.

Ugh. I really want good things for Landry next season. He was kind of a saint for putting up with 5 women in that car with him. Lol.

Super excited to see where we go next season...

Better Call Saul 5X2: 50% Off

I definitely got confused about how Gus is actually selling and making money. Is he just selling wholesale? If we end up with Salamanca supply chain issues, that would cause Gus not to bring in money, right? But he sells to so many people, I'm not sure how much that would screw him up.

Poor Mike. I don't think I've ever seen him this upset about a 'job' he had to do. I think he still feels bad about what happened with Head German Guy. That would explain all the booze and how he reacted ...

Stranger Things 1X3: Holly, Jolly

We have our Christmas light Ouija board!

So, I'm definitely thinking we've got some kind of alternate realities or timelines going on here. We've got Barb, who's in the same space she was taken in, but it looks all post-apocalyptic. And we've also got Will, who Eleven says is hiding in his house, and he (assuming it's actually him) tells Joyce he's 'right here' via the Christmas light Ouija board.

But then we find Will's body. If you die in an alternate reality, do you die in thi...

9-1-1 1X5: Point of Origin

Oh, I loved this episode. I really needed some Bobby backstory, and I got much more than I deserved. I hope the rest of the crew gets to hear the story next episode. And I really hope it doesn't change the way they see him.

I'm still not sold on Abby and Buck as a romantic pair, but I do think they have something that would make a nice friendship.

Poor Athena seems so bored at her desk job. So much in fact, that she was willing to help Buck.

Totally off topic, but Hen looks ...

The 100 1X6: His Sister's Keeper

I quite enjoyed the flashbacks in this episode, but I am super skeptical of the surprise inspection at the ball, though. Why wasn't their mother able to inform them about it when she seemed so knowledgeable before?

Also, I so expected Kane to be the person who went to Bellamy to make a deal, not someone he was a colleague with the year before. There has to be more to this, right?

Ugh. I really want Clarke and Raven to be friends. I think they are so similar. It's no wonder why Fin...

Arrow 1X8: Vendetta

I guess we aren't going to get a trio of vigilantes. At least not right now. I hadn't really warmed up to Helena as much as I thought I should have if she was gonna be part of the group. Although she does know the identities of both Oliver and Diggle, but they also know all the shit she did, so for the time being, it's probably okay. But if she gets arrested for stupid shit later, she could totally use Oliver as a bargaining chip.

Still rolling on the Tommy and Laurel train. Which I'm s...

Outlander 1X11: The Devil's Mark

And, as usual, swoon-worthy Jamie to the rescue. I mean, sure, Geillis helped, but only after Jamie was able to bust in and put an immediate stop to the proceedings.

Also, Jamie finally knows the truth! And he took it so well.

Even though I knew what was gonna happen, I couldn't help but be concerned and stressed when Jamie led her to the stones and left to watch out for her from afar. But their reunion a few hours later was worth the stress.

One Tree Hill 3X22: The Show Must Go On

So, the actual wedding part of this wedding was beautiful. Nathan and Haley's vows were perfect. And she looked gorgeous in that dress.

But then, Rachel Racheled, Brooke, and Peyton are barely speaking, Lucas makes it worse, and basically, all hell breaks loose.

 At the beginning of this episode, I was so afraid that this was going to end on a cliffhanger with both Nathan and Haley potentially drowning. Instead, we get Nathan trying to play the hero and save Cooper and Rache...

Felicity 3X2: The Anti-Natalie Intervention

I was surprised that the intervention worked. And so quickly. In, like, an hour, he was like, Felicity, I can't be married to this girl! I'm hoping in the next episode, Noel shows up with clean hair. But it may have been too good to be true, as the two of them ended up in bed at the end of the episode.

What the hell is Elena doing? I don't think she needs to be in this relationship anymore. I don't have an issue with the ogling him while moving the couch, but telling him she's single an...

Friday Night Lights 1X21: Best Laid Plans

Dude. Eric sucks in this episode. Why does he get to decide what is best for the entire family? Good on Tami for deciding he can choose his future, but she's also going to choose hers. I assume that he's somehow going to end up staying in Dillon, but I don't think Tami's plan is completely crazy.

I really feel for both Tyra and Landry. I think it's Tyra's right to tell who she wants, or no one, if she chooses. However, by telling Landry, she's put him in the position of having to keep t...

Shameless 4X2: My Oldest Daughter

I'm with Fiona here. I sure as hell wouldn't give Frank my liver. Also, I'm surprised that this is all coming from Carl. I'd have thought Debbie, but I guess she's busy trying to date an adult right now.

So Stan left the Alibi to Kevin, but it doesn't look like it's making any money, they don't have a business license, and they haven't paid taxes in years. This is not going to help pay for Kevin's four kids. Yes, four.

I so don't think that Fiona and her boss are a good match. The...

Better Call Saul 5X1: Magic Man

Saul Goodman has finally arrived!

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this episode. I don't love Lalo, and he was a pretty decent part of this episode, so that wasn't fun.

I loved the end bit, though. Jimmy trying to talk Kim into tricking her client into taking the deal, and Kim saying no. And then she ended up doing it anyway. And she was fucking mad at herself for letting Jimmy convince her it was a good idea. I think partly because she realized hi way of doing things actua...

9-1-1 1X4: Worst Day Ever

No, thank you. This was so not good for my fear of flying. Lol.

That said, I did not realize I was going to need tissues, and I didn't have any. I really need to keep myself better prepared. Sigh. But seriously, watching this was so stressful, in the best way.

I can't really get behind Athena and the girl who was bullying her daughter. She's a grown woman with a badge. I can, however, totally get behind her for the plane fiasco bullshit.

Ooh, maybe we got a tiny piece of Bob...

The 100 1X5: Twilight's Last Gleaming

This episode was great!

I was so anxious waiting for those rockets to go off. And how much it must have sucked for Abby and the Chancellor to find out they could have saved those people if they waited a couple of hours.

Raven is awesome. I really like her character. If things had turned out differently with Finn, I could see her and Clarke being close. I'm still rooting for that to happen, though.

And what was up with Kane in this episode? Why was he being so normal and lev...

Arrow 1X7: Muse of Fire

Ooh, are we gonna get a third member of our Hood Gang? I'm still rooting for IT girl, but we can hang out with Helena for a little while.

I'm dying to know all the backstory for Moira. I'm grateful we get a little bit more in most episodes, but I want more now! Lol.

Also, I was 100% floored by the reveal of John Barrowman (yes, I'm still calling him that- I have no idea what his name is) being Tommy's father. I couldn't have guessed that if you gave me a thousand guesses.

I ...

Outlander 1X10: By the Pricking of My Thumbs

Okay. Claire is never allowed to be apart from Jamie. Every time they split up, something terrible happens to her. Lol.

I really loved the scene when Jamie found her up on the hill with the baby. It's like he's trying to make sure that she stays safe in 1743, but also really wants to make sure she remains the woman she is.

Laoghaire is a spiteful one, huh? One kiss from Jamie a month ago doesn't in any way make him her man. She knows the only way she can get him is if Claire is d...

One Tree Hill 3X21: Over the Hills and Far Away

Ugh. I so do not want to end up back in another Lucas/Brooke/Peyton triangle. I'd rather neither of them be with Lucas and just be friends with each other if we're just going to keep ending up here.

These reenactments were delightful!

I'm pretty annoyed at Brooke about the dress fight. Haley was as nice and kind about it as she could possibly be. BUT I'm so glad it was a quick fight, and they made up super quickly. Plus, the second dress she made is so much more Haley's style and ...

April 15-19

You guys, I totally forgot to post this. 100% my fault. I'm sorry! And, because I completely forgot about it, this is still in its ugly format. Sigh.

I've been filming 5 episodes a day. This week, I'm going to try to start doing 6 a day so I can take Fridays off. My house is a total disaster. (Insert embarrassed emoji here). I've been keeping on top of dishes and laundry, but everything else is a mess. Eek! All that really means for you guys is that I'm going to try to keep my recaps sh...

True Blood 1X7: Burning House of Love

First off, I wanna say that I totally forgot to mention Bill and Uncle Bartlette in my discussion. (You know, when I couldn't think of a single thing to talk about). I know Bill thinks he's doing this for Suki, but I'm not sure it's going to have the effect he intended. And Suki, just because it wasn't as bad as other people, you 100% have a right to be upset and pissed off. Also, good job, Grandma.

Poor Tara. Her mom is such a hot mess right now. And there is only so much she can do fo...

The 100 1X4: Murphy's Law

I was so not expecting Wells to actually die. I just figured Clarke would come up with a way to save him. Or maybe Charlotte would only have nicked him or something.

Also, I think it says something when everyone was calling for the death of Murphy when they thought he killed Wells, but not for Charlotte when she confessed. Act like an asshole, and people won't like you.

Do we think banishment is a good punishment for Murphy?

Finally! We need some damn rules on this planet. 2024-04-12 23:00:05 +0000 UTC View Post

9-1-1 1X3: Next of Kin

Apparently, his name is Chimney. That was driving me crazy!

Also, I realize how shitty of a person this probably makes me, but I think Tatiana was right in both instances. She was right to feel ambushed by the proposal and not go see him in the hospital.

I was so not expecting Mae (May?) to have overdosed because of an unrelated issue. I'm not sure if that makes her parents feel better or worse, though. That said, Athena needs to be careful. She is a grown-ass woman. She can't be...
