American Horror Story Season 6 Episode 3 "Chapter 3" Review

Nightmares become an inescapable reality as unique stories of people's lives in America reveal the astonishing power of the supernatural.

This was a very interesting and weird episode that I really didn't care for. I really liked finally getting to the backstory of the house and Croatoan becoming a part of the story. The character of the Bucher was really cool but I feel like after a while of her being around I'm going to get pretty annoyed by her. Flora being gone was a story plot that I really liked and it was done really well though this episode up until the ending of this episode where the homeowners just go and make a deal with some ghosts and they all agree. That just seemed weird to me to have all this drama around trying to find Flora just for it to all be fixed with a deal.  Mason in this episode was interesting with the fact of how determined he was to blame everything on Lee, even if his ideas were really crazy. How Mason ended up in this episode was kind of sad though especially because now Flora is kind of stuck there if she is eventually saved. I kind fo like Cricket because he is so weird but he does his job as a psychic so well it makes it really fun. Then the whole ending chuck was just weird and I really didn't care for, but we'll see how all these events will play out in the next episode. Overall this was a decent episode but I didn't care much for it.

Code Black Season 2 Episode 1 "Second Year" Review


Col. Ethan Willis joins the team as part of a program in which the Department of Defense sends doctors to hospitals to teach new techniques.

This was a really great first episode that I really loved. I didn't know how I would feel about the new first years. I thought it would make the show a bit too much of too many cooks in the kitchen, but it actually wasn't all that bad.  I kind of like the new residents but I also need to see a bit more of them to collect a full opinion on them. All that happened with Mike was a little surprising, but also made a bit of scene because they needed to get Leanne back in charge of the residents, but I really hope Mike comes back soon. Angus's whole part in this episode was really sad and I felt so bad for him because not even his father wanted to talk to him and the only real person he could fully lean on was Mike and Mike wasn't there. I really like Ethan but I also kind of felt that going into watching this episode, and I like him because he really kind of plays by his own rule like Leanne does. The shark attack sisters I found a little annoying because I have a hard time understanding how you could ever hate someone as much as the little sister seemed to hate the older one. Then the father and the newlyweds were interesting but a little boring of a story line. Then having Campbell be the new head of the ER as well as surgery I really don't think is going to turn out well for anyone because no one really seems to like him or care to follow his orders. Overall this was a really fun and enjoyable episode to watch.

Agents of SHIELD Season 4 Episode 2 "Meet the New Boss" Review


Daisy goes to battle Ghost Rider at a terrible cost, and Coulson faces the new Director, and his bold agenda surprises them all.

This was a really fun and great episode that I really liked watching, but like many of the other shows, I have watched this week there really didn’t seem to be much to this episode. I kind of liked kind of didn’t like the scene where Daisy shows up at Robbie’s work. It was kind of fun to see Daisy trying to spin this whole backstory between them and Robbie just not wanting to play along, and the fight scene between them was okay. But that whole chunk seemed to drag on for so long and it got a little boring. Then the “ghost” and their whole reason for being there and everything about them was not really explained at all besides the fact that there angry at Lucy and book, so that was a little annoying. Then I liked seeing the little team up between Mack and Fitz especially the scene in the plane with Daisy and Fitz just lets all his feeling out there. I kind of like the new director but with how he carries himself I feel like he might not last that long, but I really kind of want him to stick around because I like him because he’s so different than the rest of the group. Then everything with May was interesting to see her slowly lose her mind, and I can’t wait to see what might happen to her in the episodes to come. Then the ending where Daisy and Robbie’s team up was a little confusing because it again it involves the mysterious ghost people so hopefully the next episode might clear up some of the confusion. Overall this was a fun and interesting episode but it did have a lot of confusing parts to it.

Gotham Season 3 Episode 2 "Burn the Witch" Review


Fish Mooney takes matters into her own hands to locate Hugo Strange, forcing Gordon to reluctantly team up with journalist Valerie Vale to find her. Penguin rises in popularity after criticizing the work of the GCPD and Bruce's investigation of the Court of Owls is compromised. Meanwhile, Ivy Pepper is reintroduced into Gotham City.

This was a very interesting and fun kind of episode. First of all, I really enjoy the title of this episode because it really does end up working into the main story pretty well. Because the whole point of this episode seemed to be finally getting Penguin and Fish back in the same spot together. And the whole outcome of that meeting was very kind of cool for the fact that Fish wasn't wrong with what she was saying because in a way she did create Penguin and made him into what he is, I mean just look back to the first season and it is pretty clear. But Penguin actually letting Fish and Dr. Strange get away was a little weird in my mind, and not like something he would have done in any state of mind. All the parts with Gordon were a little weird in my mind because of it really kind of seemed like he was not in the right mind at all in this episode. He really seemed like the world was a haze to him and him just kind of wind up in places here or there. Then again in this episode, there wasn't much of the Court of Owls, but the scene with them and Bruce were very interesting with the deal that Bruce made with them. But Bruce's recognition of the one head lady of the Court of Owls was a little weird because I don't remember ever seeing her so him saying that he remembers seeing her at some of the parties. So I might have to go back and watch a few episodes to see if I can find her. The part with Ivy was interesting I kind of can't wait to see where she might go next. Overall this was an interesting episode but it wasn't a favorite of mine I found it a little boring.    

Once Upon a Time Season 6 Episode 1 "The Savior" Review

The heroes set out to stop Hyde; Emma experiences a mysterious side effect; refugees from the Land of Untold Stories come to Storybrooke; Regina and Zelena become roommates; Rumple enlists a stranger to help free Belle from the sleeping curse.

This was a very interesting and kind of fun episode, but it really didn't have much to it. though this break they brought up how this season was going to have Aladin in it but in this first episode he was in it not really at all, he did really even speak. I did like having the red bird as it was described and how that bird could easily be Lago. But who that bird was with was a little confusing to me because it was an oracle which is fine but I don't really remember an oracle being in many of these tales like Aladin, especially not a little kid one. So I kind of can't wait to see how she connects hopefully later on to the story. I did also like the one comment that Regina made about the people from the Land of Untold Stories and how terrible they must be for trying to hide from living out their stories, but then she remembers that she as the evil queen kind of did the same thing for a long time. Regina and Zelena's relationship is really confusing to me because it seemed like the whole second half of last season was all about the gaining a relationship just to wind up with this episode having them hating each other again. All the parts with Rumple were really interesting with how everything went down. I'm curious as to why in Belle's dream world she still feels like a slave to Rumple. And then the twist ending between Rumple and Belle was really great. Overall this was a really interesting episode and I can't wait to see what the next episode will bring.

American Horror Story Season 6 Episode 2 "Chapter 2 " Review



More weird and strange things happen at the Miller’s new house, every night the events get darker and more creepy. Lee’s daughter comes to stay for a few nights and makes a new imaginary friend who gives the household members a creepy message. Some secrets of the household previous members are reviled.

This was a really entertaining and creepy episode that put a lot of my old horror notions in my brain to the test. There were a lot of moments in this episode that because of how things were framed I really thought that something was going to jump out and grab one of the three main characters but it didn’t happen which put me more of edge whenever it would come up again. Even when they were watching the one video of the guy who owned the house in the 90’s the way the guy was set up I really had the feeling something was going to pop up behind him at any moment. All the things revolving around Pigman in this episode were so great and so creepy. Then the scene where Lee actually starts seeing things was so creepy. I kind of am starting to feel bad for the police officers with all the stuff they have to go through with this family but also I think the police might know more then they are willing to share especially after what the one video showed. It was a little weird that they showed this weird Pigman sacrifice at the beginning of this episode but then never really fully went back to it. Flora was awesome in this episode with how everything around her was done. I don’t quite get how Flora’s father thinks he can convince the judge to take Flora away from Lee just because she lives in a haunted house that says it wants to kill all of them. I really like getting to know some of the ghosts cause now we know Prescilla and I kind of hope to get to know a little more about her. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can’t wait for the next one.

Agents of SHIELD Season 4 Episode 1 "The Ghost" Review


With the Sokovia Accords and with Hydra destroyed, S.H.I.E.L.D. no longer needs to operate in the shadows; Coulson and Mack team up to confirm the presence of Inhumans; May needs to train specialist strike teams.

This was a fairly enjoyable and good episode with some great parts to it. I kind of like the fact that Coulson is no longer the director for the fact that he can go back to disobeying the director and do what he thinks is right. I wish they would have shown who the new director is because I want to know if it is Talbot or someone new. Simmons now being somewhat of a head person is a little weird to me because she doesn't seem like that much of a very assertive person, which really shows in this episode. And I just feel like I might grow to kind of hate her if she keeps up being this super rule follower, even if she did have a good reason as to why she took the job. Then I liked that this episode didn't really focus too hard on one character and gave every main character a little bit of time to shine. Mack and Yo-yo's relationship I kind of want it to continue on a grow but it is also bugging me a bit because it feels super pushed. But seeing Yo-yo being somewhat of an informant for Daisy of what SHIELD is up to was kind of a fun arrangement to set up. Ghost Rider wasn't actually too bad in this episode and very entertaining to watch. All his scenes were done really well in the idea of sticking with the comic well enough so far, while also mixing some stuff up. I did like the one comment made in this episode that everyone is attached to something and that saying at the end of this episode even included Ghost Rider. The scenes with Fitz and ADA were fine but I defiantly feel like the eventual outcome of it all will come back to bit Fitz and maybe even hurt his relationship with Simmons. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and it was a really good starting episode for a season.

Gotham Season 3 Episode 1 "Better to Reign in Hell... " Review


Gordon works in a monster-ridden Gotham as a bounty hunter and seeks to find answers about the Indian Hill escapees and why their powers appear to be killing them. Bruce’s doppelganger roams the streets and Barbara and Tabitha open a nightclub called The Sirens.

This was an interesting episode with a lot of parts that didn’t really connect but hopefully in the episodes to come some things might become clearer. I find it kind of weird how easily Selina seems to get herself into every group out there in Gotham, because you see her at The Siren at the beginning of this episode and then throughout the rest of this episode she is hanging out with Fish Mooney, so it is really kind of amazing how she manages to be friend with everybody. And when they said that Valerie Vale was coming to Gotham I thought that it would be a very small and not all that important of a part but she was present for most of this episode, and really seems like she is going to continue to be present for many more episodes to come. Ivy’s whole transformation went a little better than I thought it would but still it is kind of a stupid idea in order to get Ivy older. Some of the monsters shown in this episode had some really cool and unique abilities and I can’t wait to see more of them. Bruce and his doppelganger were both done really well and with how this episode ended I think the doppelganger might be taking over for Bruce for a while and that is why it is planned that we will see a bit more stuck-up version of Bruce. With all the posters and stuff showing the Court of Owls and making it seem liked they would be this really big thing and I was expecting to see more of them in this episode but they only really were in the last part. So hopefully the next episode will show them a bit more. Overall I liked this episode but I don’t think it was the greatest of episodes.

Once Upon a Time Season 5 Episode 23 "An Untold Story" Review


Regina and Emma set out to find Henry before Gold does. Meanwhile, Snow, David, Hook, and Zelena are imprisoned.

This was an okay episode but not as great as I was expecting it to be for being a season finale. It did have some very good moments with this but there weren't as many of those moments as this whole episode should have had I feel. I didn't really like all the moments with snow and charming in those characters in the Land of Untold Stories and them working with Jekyll to try and get rid of Hyde. Then it was really cool actually have that moment where Jekyll and Hyde were separated and just seeing a bit of how that would all play out because if I remember right it does happen in the play but not as dramatically as it does in this episode. But with all this Jekyll and Hyde and very curious as to where Emma and Lucy are as I don't think there in the books but they are in the play and fairly important characters so I'm wondering if they might make an appearance at all in Once Upon A Time in the next season or if they're just stick with the book characters. All the parts where the characters were in New York I really didn't care for the whole plot it didn't make much sense and Henry just seems so determined to try and get rid of magic and then when he did want it back almost instantly, and I understood why they decided to put that way but still it wasn't that great of an idea. However, I did really enjoy the scene with them the wishing fountain and how Henry for the briefest of moments got everyone in New York to believe in magic. Then the somewhat ending where the evil queen decides to separate herself from Regina, or I guess all the way around, was interesting but I didn't really care for and now with what is coming in the future because of that choice I care for the decision even less. Overall this was an okay episode there are some moments I really liked but it just wasn't my favorite of episodes.

Supergirl Season 1 Eisode 20 "Better Angels" Review


Supergirl is forced to do battle with an unexpected enemy as she risks everything - including her life - to stop Non and Indigo from destroying everyone on Earth.

This is a really great episode I really did enjoy I really like the whole beginning scene where Kara is fighting against Alex and Alex is under the mind control. And the fact that Non had all these Kryptonian devices to give to Alex to be able to easily fight against Supergirl was kind of weird that he but also kind of cool to see it all on her. But it was even better to see a violent shop with Alex's mother and her being the only one to actually break Alex out of the mind control. Which of course brought back to what I send the previous review how hope actually managed to be something that works was a little weird. It was also a little weird just how well everything just kind of got back to normal once everything worked out. But it was kinda nice to see the little talk between James and Winn, and Kara about all that went on while James and Winn were under the control. Then bringing Lucy's father back into the DEO and him still not really liking Hank and still thinking that he will betray them all was a little weird, but it was just fine I guess with eventually how everything turned out. It was also kind of weird how quickly Maxwell realized that something was going really really wrong, and finding out that Non had changed plans to make it so that this soundwave change from controlling people's minds to slowly killing them by tightening up the frequency. I really like the scene where Kara goes and talks to Cat about how much she enjoyed working for her and just having this whole background notion in Kara's head that she could end up being dead once this day is over because she has to go in do the final fight with Non. I also really like the moment where at the DEO they have Superman just laying there and still unconscious while Supergirl's doing just fine on her own. Then the whole ending actual fight scene between Non, Indigo, Supergirl, and Hank was a really cool with how it was all done and just the splitting up of the groups to where it is Non and Supergirl going against each other and on the side there's Indigo and Hank going against each other it was just really well done really great. And I'm just really happy that Hank made it out of this alive even after he got the crap beat out of him multiple times. Then the whole ending conversation between Kara and Alex was really sad but then the whole twist of events where Alex went and got into Kara's pod and went and got her out of the middle space is a really fun scene. Then the whole ending dinner scene with all the main sort of people was really sweet and definitely left a lot of open doors for where the next season could go. And as overall I'm really happy with how this episode went about doing things and I absolutely can't wait for the next season.

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 19 "Myriad" Review


Non and Indigo use mind control to make the citizens of National City their army, so Kara must find a way to save her friends.

This was a really good and fairly interesting episode. I kind of liked the random tag team group that was put together that being Supergirl, Cat, and Maxwell and having them be the only ones who weren't under the mind control. It was a little weird in my mind that Maxwell gave Cat these earrings that stopped the signal from controlling her mind, which was nice but why Cat out of all the people Maxwell could have chosen. I kind of like how willing Maxwell is to also keep Kara's secret, he will joke about it a bit to people who don't know but it is so casual that way he does it can also be unnoticeable. It was also kind of fun that they brought Superman into the mix of all this to help stop everything only for him to end up under all the mind control himself. Maxwell's whole plan was a little far fetch in my mind with him wanting to set off a bomb full of kryptonite that will kill and the Kryptonians including Supergirl and Superman as well as some few hundred innocent people. Even for Maxell that just doesn't seem like all that great of an idea. But that being said Supergirls plan seemed even crazier where she is just using hope to fix everything if a person is hopeful for some reason the mind control doesn't work on them. Alex and Hanks scenes where very fun but Alex wanting to go back with Hank to National City seemed like such a bad idea in my mind and with how everything turned out it was a pretty bad idea. Overall this was a fairly good episode but it definitely was a setup episode for the next episode.

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 18 "Worlds Finest" Review


Kara gains a new ally when the Flash arrives from a parallel universe and helps her fight the Silver Banshee and Livewire in exchange for helping him return home.

This was a really fun and great episode that managed to still focus on Kara with just enough of a sprinkling of Barry. I did like just how quickly Barry sort of got integrated into the friendship group and was just so willing to help the rest of the group and the city. The beginning with Siobhan was a little weird because Winn knew that she wasn't stable with her new abilities and the DEO couldn't really do anything about it but they all just kind of let her go into the world alone. And of course, she goes and attacks Kara almost instantly. I don't know much about the background of Silver Banshee so I don't know how accurate her story plot is but either way it is a very weird story plot in my mind. Having a jealous James was a little weird in my mind but also a bit funny in my mind because it is Barry. Having a team up between Livewire and Silver Banshee was kind of cool but they didn't really work together that much they just kind of were in the same place at the same time. But Cat's fear of dying and leaving her sons all alone was a very interesting turn in her personality. Then the whole city changing their minds and trusting Supergirl again was really fun especially when the fire department showed up. Overall this was a very fun episode and with how it ended I can't wait to see more.

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 17 "Manhunter" Review


J'onn J'onzz reveals how he met Jeremiah Danvers and assumed the identity of Hank Henshaw.

This was a really great episode but it did have some part to it that I'm a little confused on. The whole investigative side of this episode where it is actually just telling a whole lot of backstory to say how everything came to be was done really well. The part showing J'onn and Jeremiah's first encounters with each other was really great with how it was done and the ending of how Jeremiah died I defiantly was not expecting. But I do feel with the whole investigation that the army picked the wrong people to do all the investigation because I can kind of understand why Lucy was there to help tell if someone is lying or not. But the other guy with how Add to dictionary he was and this apparent massive relationship he had with the original Hank I feel all that should have been disqualifying for him to be conducting the investigation. Then the final questioning of Alex was interesting because how they chose to frame the question on the lie detector technically Alex wasn't lying they were just asking the wrong questions. I did also like that basically every member of the DEO seemed okay with J'onn being Hank. Winn and Siobhan scenes where she is really sad and then try's to come up with a way to get back at Kara was very interesting and I liked the line from Cat saying that she wished that she could fire Siobhan all over again with even more anger. Then the ending where Hank and Alex take off and Lucy is now the acting head of DEO makes me very curious to see what might happen next. Over all this was a really interesting episode and I can't wait to see the next one with The Flash.   

American Horror Story Season 6 Episode 1 "Chapter 1" Review


My Roanoke Nightmare follows a couple narrating told in a flashback sense. As the couple recount their move from an incident in Los Angeles , which is reenacted by actors as the story unfolds. Traveling back east and Their purchase of a property in North Carolina seems to have awakened a malevolent spirit residing in the house which was built in 1704. Unusual things occur which finds the need to wire the house with cameras. Now the real bizarre actions start to freak them out even more.

This was a really great episode from what has been shown so far the full sort of story plot is not really reviled I don't think, this was defiantly much more of a setup episode for what might come in future episodes. I did really like the whole style of this being sharing "real" stories of past hunting under like a whole separate show called My Roanoke Nightmare. It really reminded me of when I used to watch a show called A Haunting this episode was stylized much like that show is. The whole beginning chunk of this episode where they were in Los Angeles I felt was really unnecessary but maybe it will be useful in future episodes. The comment made by I think Ryan Murphy where this has some ties to season one are defiantly true because we have Pigman and some other small things that I spotted things that could maybe be ties in the future. The character of Lee I really don't care for that much so far, but with that being said I really didn't care much for any of the three main characters of Lee, Shelby, and Matt I find all them a little annoying. I did really love the one line that Matt says which is "when people come up to your house with pitchforks they aren't there to welcome you to the neighborhood." Then on to the other thing that I think Ryan Murphy said which was that only one of the little teasers is true if that is correct then I would say that the Wind Chime one is the one that is most accurate. But with that being said I think all the teasers might be true to some degree here or there because I could see several things from this first episode that were in a few of the teasers. Overall I really did like this episode and I can't wait to see where it will go.

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 16 "Falling" Review


Red Kryptonite makes Kara malicious and dangerous while Cat appears on The Talk (2010) to discuss Supergirl.

This was a really great and fun episode that took a lot of different material and actually managed to mix it all together really well. The whole part of actually introducing the Red Kryptonite to Kara was really weird with it being sort of hidden amongst a fire. Then it was even worse when the truth was actually reviled saying that Maxwell was actually planning on using it on Non because how was a simple satellite dish ever really going to attract Non enough for the Red Kryptonite to actually work, and even then I feel one of Non's henchmen would have gone instead of Non himself and when that henchman started acting weird he probably would have been caged up or killed, so how was this ever going to work out right. It was really fun to see Kara in these very drastic different outfits and how she still managed to do everything the same at first but with a slightly different twist to it. Then as the episode went on she just became more and more aggressive all leading to the awesome scene where Supergirl those Cat off of her building. Like I said now that Winn and James know the location of the DEO it really seems like they can just walk in and out completely freely. And Maxwell as well was weird too when he just kind of walks in a admits his mistake and then offers to help them fix Supergirl it just seemed really weird and out of place. Then where did Kara get that new uniform from at the end because it really seemed to come out of nowhere and is it just like some kind of standard issue uniform on Krypton that everyone seems to have it is some form? The ending fight scene was interesting and I can't wait to see what they are going to do about Hank. Overall this was a really fun and interesting episode.

Supergirl Season 2 Episode 15 "Solitude" Review


Kara travels to the Fortress of Solitude hoping to find information on how to defeat Indigo, a being from her past who can travel through the Internet. In the meantime, James and Lucy reach a crossroads in their relationship.

This was a very interesting episode with a really nice villain that I wish that we could have gotten to know a bit more of in this episode. Because with Indigo they just kind of threw her in there with a little back story but it was really confusing and kind of put out there like it is supposed to be common sense for everyone. They did say that that Indigo had some kind of background with Non, but what was it? And like how long was Indigo around before she finally decided to make herself known because I think they did say that she only could really make herself known because of the solar flares going on, but besides that has she been just hanging around on the internet since prison crashed. The moment of showing the Fortress of Solitude was really great with showing all these mementos from different things that are important to Superman. I don't really remember Superman ever taking James to the fortress but that is not that big of an issue in my mind because it could have easily been Kara who knew its location even though she had never been there herself. And I don't know how I feel about the idea of telling Lucy about Kara's secret but maybe it might be good for the group once they finally get around to doing so. The relationship between Winn and Siobhan but at least we don't have to worry about him constantly pinning over Kara that much anymore, or at least until Siobhan eventually probably breaks his heart. Overall this was a really great episode with some especially great moment to it.

Scorpion Season 2 Episode 23 "Toby or Not Toby" Review


The team races against time to stop an unstable ex-member of Scorpion, Mark Collins who kidnaps and threatens to kill Toby if his demands are not met.

This was a really great season finally episode because it was just really all about the team and not adding any new or extra people going to a far over and different location. The whole kidnapping of Toby was interesting with the fact of how it all went down, and I thought that Toby had dropped the ring along with his phone but I guess that turned out to not be true.But the fact that Sylvester was the only one besides Toby to know about Toby's plans was a little weird in my mind because out of all the characters I feel Sylvester would have the hardest time trying to keep a secret, and he defiantly did. Then Marks whole plan was very interesting with the fact that he really didn't want anything he just wanted to destroy the team and prove that they have changed since he has left. His whole Jigsaw like trap was really fun especially when the team finally figured out a way around it. Then the "torture" scene with Toby was really cool with how it was done but not as fun with how quickly the rest of the team figured out it was fake. The ending was really sad at moments but also really sweet at others, even though I'm still not a big fan of the idea of Walter and Paige potentially becoming a couple. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait for the next season.

Gotham Season 2 Episode 22 "Transference" Review


While Gordon, Bruce, and Lucius remain at Indian Hill, the city of Gotham will be met with a new threat as Hugo Strange's inmates devise a plan to escape and start their new lives in Gotham.

This was really great episode especially a really great episode to end the season on. I did like the whole sort of plot in this episode was to get the last of the experiment out of Arkham and then to blow it up. I was especially happy when it got to the point that I kind of been waiting half a season for which if the fight between Firefly and Mr.Freeze. I felt the scene could have been done a bit better but ti still was a really great moment in of itself. But I'm curious to know if they survived what they did to each other because the scene showed them starting to fight but then really didn't show them again at all. Then the fake Gordon going back to the GCPD was very fun to see, but ti was also kind of odd with the fact that everyone seemed to realize that something was off with Gordon but they didn't seem to question any of it. And the fact that it took Barbra showing up for them to realize that it wasn't Gordon. Then with that, the moment with Penguin felt a little odd and out of place and like they just wanted to put Penguin in this final episode but it didn't serve much of a purpose besides getting Barbra to the GCPD with a reason to be there. Then the ending was really great to see all this massive fear now that Fish Moony is back and the realized of all these monsters. I'm still not a big fan of the future Poison Ivy storyline because of the fact of how they are going about suddenly making her much older. But I am curious to see how that sudden gain in age might affect her relationship with Selina. Then there decision to add in Jerome's laugh as the monsters were leaving the bus makes me hopeful that he might be back soon, even with Cameron saying see you in a season or two. I feel they are going to keep Jerome on the backburner until the viewers might drop a bit and then bring him in to make people excited for the show again. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait for the next season starting next week.

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 14 "Truth, Justice and the American Way" Review


Kara battles the Master Jailer while dealing with a second assistant at CatCo and disagreeing with James over the DEO’s methods.

This was a very interesting episode that I really don’t know how I feel about it. A part that kind of confused me was the DEO’s confusion of who this person going around killing the escaped prisoners was. But it wasn’t that I didn’t like that they couldn’t figure out his actual identity it was more that they couldn’t decide if is was another escaped prisoner, a jailer, or just some random person until the very end when they discover his identity. But in all that time they have all this information on the jailers of the prison that I feel they could have matched his uniform to the jailers uniform. Then I really wished to know what this jailer’s whole plan was because he just seemed to be killing the prisoners now matter their crimes and when asked he said that he was recreating the prison, so how do those two things work out. And the jailer also said that he was happy that he and Supergirl were doing similar work but then he was also more than willing to kill her, all that I was just really confused on. Then James showing up at the DEO unasked just like I was expecting was nice with him finally setting in stone that maybe keeping Maxwell isn’t the smartest of ideas. I did like the parts at Catco with the new assistant seeming to be everywhere and no one really seeming to like her. And I kind of can’t wait to see what the plan with this new assistant might be. Overall I really enjoyed this and it had a lot of great parts to it.     

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 13 "For the Girl Who Has Everything" Review


A parasitic alien attaches itself to Kara and traps her in a world where Krypton was never destroyed, leaving Alex, Hank, and the DEO to fend off a Kryptonian attack without her.

This was a really great episode that showed a bit of how the DEO would survive now that they have gotten so used to have Kara around. I liked seeing Kara's dreams of her back on Krypton and her living this perfect life and slowly forgetting all about her real life back on earth. But I find it a bit weird that they decided to show her slowly forgetting about the real world by having her forget the name earth when ever she was trying to talk about this other life. All the parts back at Catco were really fun with James and Winn coming up with all this different stuff to try and explain why Kara wasn't there. Then when Hank tried to disguise himself as Kara to help lessen that fact that Kara was missing but then in the end his comment saying that he has faced a lot of stuff but Cat had to be the worse. I don't know how I feel about James and Winn being brought to the DEO because I feel that in the future they are just going to walk into the DEO without permission now that they know where it is located. Then the parts with Astra were a bit confusing because she wanted to follow Non but also protect Kara, and the scene were Non confronts Astra about her helping Kara was a bit confusing with his sudden changes in mood. The ending fight with all the Kryptonians was really well done and I'm curious to fully see what Non has planned. And with Astra being out of the picture and the way she was taken out I don't think Alex can keep that secret from Kara for very long. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and i can't wait for the next one.

Arrow Season 4 Episode 23 "Schism" Review


Oliver teams up with a surprising force in an attempt to stop Damien Darhk and his magic once and for all.

This was a really great and interesting episode that was basically all about wrapping everything up. The whole idea of Lyla sending a group of normal people into Darhk layer to try and kill him seemed really kind of stupid and just gave him, even more, power. Then the opening where Darhk tried to get Felicity to come and work for him was interesting but it was mostly about giving Darhk back his daughter and stealing Felicity's computer. Then the getting off of the nukes was interesting with how all of the nukes seemed to be going to kind of random places all over the world. But it did create a really good moment with Oliver speaking to the citizens of Star City and reminding them that they have survived so much already, and all they need to do is stick together. Then Felicity actually coming up with a way to stop the nukes seemed a little odd to me because it was so last moment of a decision. Then the final fight scene between Oliver and Darhk was great with Oliver gaining control of some light magic because all the citizens of Star City believe in him. The ending where everyone breaks off to go rethink their lives and stuff like that was very interesting to see but I don't think it will last too long into the next season. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait for the next season.

The Flash Season 2 Episode 23 "The Race of His Life" Review


After Zoom reveals his true plan, Barry vows to do whatever it takes to stop him.

This was a really great episode that had some turns to it that I wasn't expecting. I did like that the rest of the team decided to lock Barry up for the fact that he was being too emotional at the time because of the death of his father, and if Barry went out there and tried to face Zoom like that then he probably would have ended up dead. Then the team going out and trying to face Zoom without Barry was very interesting in how they went about doing it and in my mind for Catlin's part I went back and forth for a bit on whether or not she was a hologram. But the whole idea of how they decided to get Joe back when he got pulled in with Zoom was kind of stupid, because it was just like they all said that they wouldn't reopen the portals but because Barry and Wally didn't agree to that decision somehow it is okay for all of them to break that agreement. Zoom's whole secret plan in my mind was not all that great and I think it might have been slightly better if Team Flash didn't already know everything about it because for so long now Zoom has been keeping it a secret just to wind up having Team Flash already know everything about it. Having the clone runners was fun with both Zoom and Flash doing it at some point in the episode. The final part of showing who the man was in the metal mask was great but not as much of a surprise to me because one of my friends spoiled it for me, but still, it was really nice. Overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait to see what the next season will bring.

Agents of SHIELD Season 3 Episode 22 "Ascension" Review


In the conclusion to "Absolution," S.H.I.E.L.D. must spring into action to combat Hive.

This was a really great episode to wrap up all that has gone on in this season and the episode was actually pretty well organized for all the stuff they needed to wrap up in this episode. I really kind of liked that the whole episode had Daisy as the sort of lead. The beginning of the episode where Daisy is trying to be taken back by Hive was interesting with the fact that he wanted to but couldn't, because how I originally thought it would go was that he would just straight up go and say no to her pleas because she left him. The doctor Radcliffe was great in this episode for the fact that he really is just there to get blamed for everything and look lost. I don't know how I feel about Yo-yo pulling a Quicksilver and getting hit by a bunch of bullets to save a friend, but at least in this instant, Yo-yo did say that she tried to catch them but wasn't fast enough. Instead of being like Quicksilver and being fast enough to catch the bullets but for some reason didn't. The moment where Coulson was talking to Hive was really great too with the true comment that the team rarely ever listens to is order if they go against what they think is right, and the ending Star Wars reference was the greatest. Bringing back in Daisy's vision of the future where she saw an agent dying out in space was really well done in how it was organized and drops little symbolic hints of who it might be. Then, in the end, having Hive on the ship with that dying agent was a nice way to wrap everything up with his part in the story, but it also felt odd that that was the only way they could come up with to actually kill Hive. Overall this was a really great episode and I can't wait to see what the next season will bring in with the introduction of Ghost Rider. 

Gotham Season 2 Episode 21 "A Legion of Horribles" Review


Hugo Strange welcomes a familiar face to Gotham after he resurrects Fish Mooney in Indian Hill. Meanwhile, Bruce discovers a friend is in danger and teams up with Gordon, Alfred, and Lucius while uncovering more of his experiments.

This was a very interesting episode that I really don't know how I feel about it. This whole episode was really about Bruce and Gordon breaking into Arkham to find Selina and to hopefully stop Stange once and for all. but this, of course, didn't go as planned and they ended up getting captured. Which was interesting in how it made it seem like Strange knew from the very beginning that they were all there and why they were there and he just let them believe that they had the upper hand over him for the first time but that was not true. And the fact that Strange finally let Strange join the team and be the one to interrogate Lucius and Bruce make me very curious to see what he might do to them in the next episode. The person who was resurrected at the beginning of this episode was weird at first but once the episode showed him again near the end it made a bit more sense and I can't wait to see what this new imposter Gordon might do. Fish Mooney was great in this episode for the little bit that she was in it and I really enjoy her possible new ability. Selina and Fireflies scenes were really great as well and I kind of can't wait to see them again in the next episode now that they are working together. Overall this was an okay episode and I can't wait to see the next one.  

Arrow Season 4 Episode 22 "Lost in the Flood" Review


Following the shocking events in the previous episode, Oliver and Diggle race to rescue Thea, while Felicity, Curtis, and Noah join together to stop Darhk.

This was a very interesting and exciting episode that really to some degrees could have been the season finally in itself. So this episode is finally about the rest of team Arrow realizing that Thea being gone so long and not answering her phone might be a problem, so they finally go out and try and find her. And the one entrance that was shown to lead into Darhk's secret underground town was a little weird to me with how all the entrances seem designed and the location of this one entrance to everything else in that underground town. Because when they eventually leave at the end of this episode they leave from the same tunnel they came in, so from all the different locations they went to underground how far away was that entrance from them especially at the end when everything is falling apart around them. The part with Thea having to take one of the yellow pills seemed really off to me because it was definitely a necessary scene to explain her character for this episode, but the way the scene was done was just weird and kind of awkward. Anarky in this episode was really great and again really fun to see. And the fact that he got away again makes me really excited to see him again in the future. All the parts with Felicity and her family were kind of fun, especially the scene where Felicity left Curtis alone with them. The part with Felicity's mother saying that they are the ones who actually ran away from her father and not the other way around seem really interesting to me for some reason. Then also bringing back Felicity's old hacker ex-boyfriend in this episode was a little fun. But I felt that with the fact that her ex mostly uses stolen code from her that she could easily code around it, and it seemed like there was a bit of that but mostly they just seemed to be going toe to toe and Curtis is the one who managed to beat him. Overall I really loved this episode and it is definitely going on my favorites list.

The Flash Season 2 Episode 22 "Invincible" Review


Zoom unleashes an army of Earth-2 meta-humans, the leader of which is Black Canary's doppelganger, Black Siren; Joe worries when Wally goes out to help The Flash.

This was a very interesting episode that at first some things kind of confused me. One of the main things was when Henry was talking about Zooms plans and what he did to Earth-2 in past episodes and he said that Zoom gathered all these random meta-humans and now he's doing it again. I though what he meant was that Zoom was gathering meta-humans from Barry's earth and that was who we saw with Zoom at the end of the last episode, but it turns out they are just the meta-humans from Earth-2 so what about all the meta-humans on Barry's Earth, where are they. I agree with most of the team that Barry's attitude in this episode was a little annoying with how confident and happy he was like nothing could hurt him, meanwhile the city around him is crumbling. I did really like seeing a darker Laurel and her running around the city with her meta-human mutation basically being her screech device that Barry's Earth's Laurel had but this time it is really just her voice. I also really liked the scene where Caitlin and Cisco dress up as their Earth-2 doppelgangers to try and distract Laurel, and it worked for a bit. The ending of this episode was amazing and I can't wait to see what the next episode will bring.

Once Upon a Time Season 5 Episode 22 "Only You" Review


Regina grieves over Robin Hood's death and Henry sets out to destroy all magic.

This was a very interesting episode that I don't know how I feel about it. I'm not saying it was bad, but it defiantly was a Once Upon a Time finally where it is broken up into two parts so really this whole episode is just setup for what all will happen in a much better second part in the next episode hopefully. I agree with Regina on how Emma was treating her in this episode that it is not fair that when Emma is sad and grieving she and continue on and everyone is on her side, but when Regina is sad everyone thinks she should sit on the sidelines and they are afraid of her and afraid that she might become the evil queen again. Both Rumpelstiltskin and Henry's plans seemed really kind of weird and not thought out in my mind. Just Rumpelstiltskin on a quest to become more powerful and save Belle I just really don't know what I think of that plan. Then with Henry, it was nice to see him taking matters into his own hand and it was cool to see magic in the real world and all of that. But it just seemed so much like Henry was pulling on random strings here and there and the writers were just trying to bring things back into play and make everything have a reason. I also really like all the parts with Snow, Charming, Zelena, and Hook, especially the introduction of a new world and some new characters. And I recognized part of one of the new charterers right away but figuring out which part he is and who the other part is was a surprise and I hope to see even more of both parts in the future. Even though I don't know how I feel about what seems to be a change in the cause of their problems being possibly because of magic instead of science. But that thought of mine could be wrong and the magic part of his life could just be because of the world the writers put this character in. Overall I really like this episode and I can't wait to sit down and see what the second part will bring.       

Agents of SHIELD Season 3 Episode 21 "Absolution" Review


It's a showdown a season in the making as S.H.I.E.L.D. takes on Hive, and when his master plan is finally revealed, the team must spring into action.

This was a really interesting episode that did a really good job of keeping a good flow and seemed to go by really quick. It was interesting that for this whole episode they kept Daisy in basically quarantine while she got over her withdrawal from Hive. Which that was nice to see both sides of people like Simmons who was following the quarantine rules and then people like Mack to broke the rules just to fully make sure she was okay. The part in the beginning of the episode between Simmons and Daisy was also kind of sad when Daisy made the comment that they are only sending Simmons in to check on her because Simmons is the only Daisy didn't hurt in some way while she was under control by Hive. Then the whole scene where some of the team was at the mission launch base had some really great and funny moments. Like the moment when Fitz is trying to get the codes to stop the launch followed by Radcliffe talking to the new forms of the Watchdog agents to try and figure out a way to restart the launch. Then the moment between Yo-yo and Mack was great with Yo-yo complaining about how slow Mack is working and then at the last minute she quickly finished everything and handed it off to Lincoln to give the machine an electric charge instead of finishing the work to plug it into the wall like I think the original plan might have been if they were given more time. Then I wonder how they thought taking Hive back to the base was ever going to be a good idea. And in this episode, it defiantly had the moment of to much good stuff happened in the beginning that there had to be some bad at the end to even it out, which there was plenty. And the twist ending with Daisy makes me very curious where the final episode might take them. Overall I really loved this episode and it had a lot of great parts to it.
