The Librarians Season 4 Episode 4 "And the Silver Screen" Review


Drawn into the world of Baird's favorite film noir movie, the Librarians must perfect their skills in lassoing, sharpshooting, and snappy dialogue to make it out alive.

This was a really interesting and entertaining episode that wasn't the greatest episode out there. I really loved the concept of this episode with Baird and Flynn are stuck in a film that they have to go through the movie to complete required tasks. But even with this great concept, I feel they didn't deliver on the storyline like they could have. It was fun to watch Baird lead Flynn through the film because she has it completely memorized and they had to find other storylines within the film to find the true storyline that has been kept secret from the public. Then it was fun to watch the rest of the librarians try and help Baird and Flynn as well as get to them by going through a bunch of other movies, which is another concept that they should have done more with. Then the ending was really confusing and random with how they tried to connect the real world to the real storyline within the movie there stuck in. Overall this was a really entertaining and okay episode to watch but I wish they could have done more with it.

Riverdale Season 2 Episode 8 "Chapter Twenty-One: House of the Devil" Review


Jughead and Betty organize a welcome home party for FP's release; Archie and Veronica must push their issues aside upon taking over the Black Hood investigation.

This was a really interesting and entertaining episode that had some really fun moments to it. I really liked FP's return and how everyone reacted to the news and the whole decision of whether or not FP was going to retire from the serpents. Then everything with Betty was interesting with her working on trying to find a way to be more involved in Jughead's life of being a Serpent. Then Betty's mother returning to the life of a Serpent for one night to honor FP was really great. But I wonder what more of the history is between Betty's mom and FP that she made the comment that she doesn't want their kids to make the same mistakes they did. I am really happy that FP didn't actually retire and I'm really excited to see what he might do to help fix some of the mistakes Jughead made. Then everything with Veronica and Archie was alright with the looking into the Riverdale Reaper story more and coming to some conclusions about who the killer might be and why they are killing people. But the whole storyline around Archie and Veronica in this episode was just way too overdone with them introducing the storyline of Archie telling Veronica that he loves her and she doesn't feel the same way so that puts a major stress on their relationship in this episode. Then just overall this was a really interesting episode but not the most exciting of episodes.
