Agents of SHIELD Season 4 Episode 8 "The Laws of Inferno Dynamics" Review

With the lives of everyone in Los Angeles hanging in the balance, S.H.I.E.L.D. and Ghost Rider find themselves working together.

 This was a very interesting mid-season finale that had some really great moments to it but overall not a lot of story, it was more just cleaning things up. I did really did like that the director and Coulson sort of came out with the truth to each other about what they were doing and sort of how everything is connected. The scenes with Eli in this episode were very interesting to watch a see him slowly go more and more crazy with every minute. I really loved the scene where Daisy, Yo-yo, and Robbie going into the building to find Eli just to have the hallway light on fire, that was just such a cool moment to me. And with that, all the moments with Yo-yo in this episode were really great to see her using her speed to mess with things and put things in her favor. But I feel the writers and directors are stretching her abilities a bit too much to the point where it seems more like she has super-speed rather than a kind of like a spring back power. Then the almost dark matter like bomb that Eli had was pretty interesting even if I couldn't fully understand what it was. Aida in this episode was so good and with how this episode ended for her was so good and pretty much exactly how I thought her storyline would go, and I'm so excited to see more. The final fight scene with Eli was very interesting with all the different parts to it and it ended with a lot of things still up in the air. And just overall this was a great episode and I'm so excited to see what happens next when the show comes back.    

The Librarians Season 3 Episode 3 "And the Reunion of Evil" Review

A routine artifact retrieval becomes complicated when the artifact grafts itself to Cassandra; a blizzard forces Stone and Cassandra to take shelter at a mysterious hotel.

This was such a fun and great episode that had a lot of really great moments to it that were so funny. I really liked the beginning with Stone and Cassandra out in the winter storm trying to get the stone before the weather got worse. I like the idea of Cassandra using magic but I also understand why Stone is hesitant so letting her use it, which is why I really liked the needing of this episode where he explains why he doesn't like the idea of using magic. The frost giants were pretty cool especially in the moments where Stone didn't know what they were, but with that it did get a little tiresome and repetitive. The moment where they are all tied up and Stone is distracting the giants while Cassandra tries to escape was very cool with how he did the distraction. And I really loved the moment where Stone had to try and prove that he is a frost giant by convincing one of them that they are friends. I also really liked Ezekiel having to take care of Nessie's egg and just watching him grow to love this egg more and more as the episode goes on. Then the ending chunk where Stone and Cassandra are trying to escape back into the library was very funny with them never making it on time. And just overall this was a very funny and great episode to watch. 

Once Upon a Time Season 6 Episode 10 "Wish You Were Here" Review

The Evil Queen uses Aladdin's lamp to make Emma's wish of never being the Savior come true, sending Emma to an alternate reality of the Enchanted Forest; Regina and David both make bold moves in order to try to find Emma; Gold and Belle receive surprising news about their son.

This was a very interesting episode that had some really great moments to it and some things were a little wired. When it was brought up that this episode was going to have Emma no longer being the savior I didn't know what to expect them to do. And what they did do was okay because I liked the idea that the enchanted forest was doing okay with Emma not being a savior but the fact that they made Emma such a weakling that just seemed so odd and not right, because you can still be a bad-ass princess and not be the savior. I liked the moments with Regina where she had to deal with everyone hating her again and she had to dress-up and play the role of the Evil Queen. Then it was kind of cool to see Henry as a knight and a little bit of a savior. The ending for Emma and Regina was really kind of weak because they missed their portal home just because Regina got distracted, Emma could have just shoved her in the portal or something instead of them both standing there yelling at each other. All the moments with the Evil Queen in this episode were okay to some degree or another. I did like the moment with the genie lamp and Regina reminds the Evil Queen that they are the same person so they both can use the genie's wishes. The moment with David fighting the Evil Queen really made very little to no sense at all. Gold and Belle in this episode seemed like a pretty cool storyline that I'm interested in seeing when the show comes back. And I did really like that they ended this first half of the season with relieving who it is under the hood that is destined to kill Emma. And just overall this was a really fun and entertaining episode. 

Pure Genius Season 1 Episode 6 "Bunker Hill, We Have a Problem" Review

Walter and the Bunker Hill surgeons must perfect a revolutionary remote surgery when someone on the International Space Station needs an emergency procedure. Also, the team uses social media to locate the source of an E. coli outbreak in town; and Zoe and Malik's flirtation heats up.

This was a very interesting episode that going in I really didn't know what to expect and I was very pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed watching it. The whole idea about the ISS procedure was kind of cool to watch and see how everything went down. And I do have to agree with Walter that James wanting to stream the surgery live is not a goo idea for all the different things that could go wrong and hurt the reputation of Bunker Hill instead of growing it. I did kind of like the idea that the doctor on the ISS had to be his own nurse when it was discovered that he was ill but I also kind of feel bad for him because he had to be awake through all that pain. I was kind of hoping that James would've still streamed the surgery even though Walter told him not to, but the fact that he didn't is good and showing that he is growing as a character. The story with the E. coli was kind of cool to watch them working on how to fix everything and find the source of the E. coli. It was very interesting to see how they kind of hid the source of the E. coli outbreak until James figured it out because I came to the same conclusion at the same time he did because it made a lot of sense. The main couple that had the E. coli were a little hard to watch with how loving they were to each other, but the ending scene for them was really sweet. It was a little weird in the moment where Angie compared Dr. Scott's thing of always eating an apple and comparing it to being an addiction. And I was kind of waiting for something to happen because of Zoe and her lack of sleep but nothing did so I was a little disappointed that the idea that Zoe was really tired really was not all that important of a fact at all. And just overall this was a really entertaining and fun episode to watch. 

Legends of Tomorrow Season 2 Episode 7 "Invasion!" Review

The Legends work with The Flash, Supergirl, and Green Arrow to kill the invaders; while working out how to defeat the Dominators, Stein gets distracted by the aberration he created in 1987.
 
This was a really interesting episode that did a great job of warping things up and end it all on a kind of happy note. I really liked seeing a bit of the time travel and how it affected the future. Again I feel really bad for Barry because even more problems emerge because of flash point. And basically, the only way to fix thing peacefully is for Barry to give up, which seemed a little weird because they never brought up this idea at any point earlier so it kind of came out of nowhere that the aliens are after Barry. I really liked the scenes with Dr. Stein getting to know his daughter and seeing just how similar she is to him. Oliver and Kara's relationship was a little hard to follow because did Oliver not like her just because she is New or was there something I missed in the conversation. I really loved watching the final fighting scene where there all battling the aliens in their own unique ways, and the aliens just sort of leaving because they are outsmarted I don't think that will last for very long. The agent guy they met I don't think he will say out of the picture for very long either especially when it comes to Barry. And just overall I really enjoyed this episode and it was so, much fun to watch.

Arrow Season 5 Episode 8 "Invasion!" Review

Oliver wakes up to a life in which his parents are alive and he is about to marry Laurel; Felicity faces a new threat with the help of The Flash and Supergirl.

This was a really interesting episode that had some moments that were really good and some that were a little weird. I really enjoyed seeing the shared world between Ray, Sara, Thea and Oliver and how they all fit into that world. The version of Laurel in this dream world was a little annoying but it also makes sense kind of because this version of Laurel hasn't seen several people she loves die or anything like that. And with that is was kind of cool to see some of the people who have died over the past seasons and for some they didn't really talk much but still, it was kind of cool to see them there. I also really loved seeing all the villains from the past seasons and see them have a little team up together to stop the four from escaping the dream world. I did feel really bad for Thea because I could understand why she didn't want to leave the dream world because if she did she would basically have to watch all these people die again. Roy remembering what the aliens were saying and then repeating it perfectly so that Gideon could translate it seemed a little impossible. Then all the moments with Team Arrow seemed so weird and just not right at all. I didn't much care for Curtis and Rory acting all obsessed over Barry and Kara. And I really didn't care for the one moment with Rene in this episode because I was completely okay with Rene not being a fan of aliens and metahumans, but the fact that he switches his opinion so quickly that really bugged me. He went from "superpowers are evil and I want nothing to do with them," to "if superpowers are a thing it's good there are people like you," a bit too quickly for it to be okay in my opinion just because Kara and Barry kind of saved him. But still, this was a really fun episode for the team up and celebration of the 100th episode of Arrow. And just overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait to see how everything ends.       

Code Black Season 2 Episode 9 "Sleight of Hand" Review

When a police officer arrives at the emergency room with an explosive bullet stuck in her leg, a risky operation is needed to be performed by Wills, Leanne and Jesse; a magician having difficulty breathing comes to Angel's memorial for help.

This was a very fun and entertaining episode that was also really sad to watch and it actually made me cry multiple times. I liked seeing the whole beginning scene where Wills and Nora are in the ambulance on the way to the shooting to help out the police officers that had been hit. It was so cool to see Nora reacting to being on the scene and having to do all this really quick stuff to save these three lives. The police officers who were injured each had some fairly interesting stories, but the main one of the three had to be the lady. The moment where the other officers carried her bed so that Wills could operate on her in an area where no one else could get hurt was one of the first moments that made me cry because it was so well done with how everything was shown. Then I loved the scene where Leanne and Jesse broke the rules and went in to help Wills do the surgery on the officer, and it was fun to see everyone applauding were they got the bullet out. The magician was really just there to add a bit of light into this otherwise really sad episode. Then the lady with lupus was such a great storyline that I kind of wish it could have been the highlight of a different episode. The ending with her brother was the other two scenes that made me cry because it was so touching to see how much the brother and sister actually loved each other. And just overall I really enjoyed this episode and it had a lot of really great moments to it.
