Once Upon a Time Season 5 Episode 12 "Souls of the Departed" Review



The mission to rescue Hook from the Underworld turns out to be more difficult than expected as the heroes encounter souls with unfinished business.

This was a really amazing come back episode that was really fun. Most of the main characters are now in the underworld and are on the search for Hook. While there they team keep running into many people in there past and in this episode it is mostly about Regina's mother. I like that Hades put Cora somewhat in charge, but I didn't really care for the fact that it seemed that Cora was seceding the fate of the people instead of the underworld doing it itself. I liked the little background story of how Regina's father got to Wonderland which was first shown in the first season and I completely forgot about until that moment. I'm curious to know what Peter Pan's unfinished business is and how that might be solved in episodes to come. I thought that it was very clever to wait until the end to fully show Hades and it really made it a cool moment.  Over all I really enjoyed this episode and thought it was really entertaining and I can't wait for the next one.

Scorpion Season 2 Episode 16 "Fractured" Review


When a powerful earthquake hits LA, Team Scorpion must prevent a pinched gas line from causing a massive explosion.

This was a really great episode that split up the group again. With the earthquake hitting L.A. it split the whole team into three different groups. Toby and Walter are in downtown L.A., Sylvester and Ralph and down near the beach and the rest of the team are back at the main hub. The story line with Walter and Toby where there relationship was having trouble and through this episode they learn to work together was really great and really funny with all the point in this episode that they had together. Sylvester and Ralph working together to get to the switch to turn off the gas line was also really great with how it basically all was Paige's worst nightmare of a day that could happen to Ralph. The rest of the team then saving a family from some electrified water was nice but not the greatest of story plots in this episode. Over all this was a really fun episode with a lot of great moments to it.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 11 "Battle Royale" Review


Ramona draws vitality from an unlikely source. Sally uses her past to negotiate her future. Scarlett learns the truth of her family's affliction.

This was a really great episode that in my mind wrapped a lot of things up so I'm very curious to see what the last episode might bring. I loved the opening where Iris and Liz trying to take the Countess down on there own with no great outcome. The part with John having to do one more killing to complete the ten commandments killings and the last one being thou shall not kill, I thought it was going to end with him killing himself instead on how it actually ended. And I feel really bad for Scarlett because in the matter of like a few months her whole family has changed dramatically. I'm very curious on how all the little vampire children go into the little hidden hallway with Ramona if that was them because I don't remember that part. And if that was them then thank goodness there gone because I hated them. Sally's whole plot was a little stupid and I'm very curious to see if in the end she might actually get what she wants. Over all I enjoyed this episode and I'm curious to see what the next one will bring.

Arrow Season 4 Episode 9 "Dark Waters" Review


Oliver moves against HIVE; Malcolm goes to see Thea, leaving her with a warning; Damien Darhk retaliates at Oliver's holiday party.

This was a really great episode that sort of fully started the war between Darhk and Oliver, and I'm really excited. Just like The Flash this was the Christmas episode and Oliver is throwing a campaign holiday party that ended really great. I really liked the beginning with the city cleaning the lake and there was a mini Felicity who was my favorite. What Darhk and his little group are doing underneath the lake I was not expecting but I'm very curious to see where that might lead to. Oliver giving himself up to Darhk so easily was a little stupid because did he really think Darhk would just let his friends go. Malcolm dressing up as the Green Arrow to help free all of them from Darhk was really cool and fun to see. Overall this was a really great episode and I can't wait to see the next one.
