Scorpion Season 3 Episode 15 "Sharknerdo" Review


Walter and Paige are surrounded by sharks when their boat explodes in the middle of the Pacific Ocean during a mission to find sunken treasure.

This was a really great episode that had some really fun moments and was really interesting to watch. I liked having Toby be super happy about basically being a pirate and hunting for treasure and then watching him become board once he realizes how long and uneventful the task actually is. It was also really nice that they finally truly had Walter and Paige together and not have it be awkward instead they finally sat down and talked about how things have been between each other in the last few months. And I actually really liked that because it wasn't a moment where they writers are trying to force and Walter Paige relationship but rather just the two of them sitting down as friends and talking. Then the two of them dealing with the sharks was fun and interesting with how they eventually got out of the situation. Then Sylvester in this episode was interesting with him having to deal with his work of saving Walter and Paige but also keeping up appearances for his campaign. And I liked how this episode ended with all the relationship problems kind of being mended. And just overall this was a really entertaining and fun episode.  

Supergirl Season 2 Episode 11 "The Martian Chronicles" Review


A White Martian called Armek comes to National City with the intention of bringing M'gann back to Mars to be punished for her treason.

This was a really interesting episode that didn't have all that much to it but it was still really entertaining to watch. I liked the whole premise they had going on at the DEO where someone there is the White Martian's in disguise and they went through the whole primes of agents accusing each other back and forth until the truth was reviled. I also liked how they did create a test to tell who is a Martian and who isn't by using fire because apparently, it is really hard to hold form when exposed to heat. Then the final fight scene between the agents and the White Martian's was really cool with how everyone played into it. And I liked Winn's comment when he was trying to stop the DEO from exploding amongst all the fighting and he just said: "don't look behind you and everything will be fine". And hopefully, with how this episode ended, M'gann will be back at some point because I really like her personality compared to everyone else. Then the things with Alex and Kara's relationship was okay it did get a little long and annoying, but it was defiantly nice to have in there and of course in there it messed with Maggie and Alex's relationship a bit again. Then the talk between Mon-El and Kara after how the last episode ended was really sad and awkward because of how hard it is for Kara to talk about her emotions. Then, of course, the ending of this episode sucked because she finally was willing to put herself out there just to end up being crushed. And just overall this was a really great episode and I can't wait for more.

Emerald City Season 1 Episode 6 "Beautiful Wickedness" Review

Dorothy’s confrontation with the Wizard brings her closer to discovering the truth about her past. Lucas goes to great lengths to recover his memory, even if it means allying with West. The Wizard enacts his plan with Lady Ev to prepare for the battle to come.

This was a really interesting episode that took the story in a lot of different ways that I was not expecting. I liked that they did show a bit of how the Wizard got to OZ and how it seems like he knew about OZ before that which seemed really odd to me. Then it was interesting how they got Lucas's memory's back somewhat to help tell what happened when he killed all those guards. The whole idea of having the witch of the south in this I am so excited for if they do go and show her at all, because it is the one witch who isn't really talked about all that much. I also really liked that the little girl Dorothy and Lucas found is a cardinal witch created by the Witch of the South, as well as several other little girls like her. Glinda being that actual bad guy is a really cool idea and I can't wait to see what they are going to do with it, and I can't wait to see what side Dorothy will actually take in this war. The moment between Jack and Tip I have been waiting to see happen and it did in this episode, and it pretty much went as I was expecting it to go. With Jack being mad at Tip for leaving him alone and Tip not sure what to say in order to apologize. Then all the moments with the gun were kind of interesting with the Wizard giving it and the ammo to Lady Ev to have her people go and make more to help weaponized both cities. I really want to know if they are trying to imply that Glinda is that darkness in the form of a human that is coming or is that is still a whole other force that is still approaching. But I do have to say overall I really enjoyed this episode and I can't wait to see more.

Code Black Season 2 Episode 15 "The Devil's Workshop" Review


A viral outbreak jeopardizes the doctors and patients of Angel's Memorial.

This was a really exciting and sad episode that was so interesting to watch everything play out. The first scene with the girl who was infected with this really dangerous disease was kind of interesting with the group of friends trying to perform an exorcism on her. Then later when Ethan went back to check on the people and they were in even worse shape than her, was so kind of cool. Even though they decided to go with the horror movie route with the eerie feeling that someone was going to jump out at Ethan at any moment and I didn't care so much for that. It was also very interesting with who they decided to have be infected by the disease and who wasn't. I also liked that the doctors who were infected decided to keep doing their jobs in dealing with the infected and helping out the other doctors in the tent while they still can instead of just sitting back worrying about when they would start feeling the symptoms. The father who's heart was failing and was worrying about making it to his daughter's wedding was probably the happiest story in this whole episode, which is saying a lot. It was nice that they brought Nora back for this episode and had her doing a bit of her job as the college basketball doctor. The ending of this episode was so sad with the voice over and who died and I really kind of hope that none of the other doctors end up dead. And just overall this was a really great episode and I can't wait to see how everything turns out because they still need to track down patient zero who is still walking around infecting others.    

Arrow Season 5 Episode 11 "Second Chances" Review


Talia al Ghul helps Oliver take down Kovar, but he isn't sure he wants it when she reveals what she requests in return.

This was a really interesting episode that had some good moments to it but it was a really kind of boring episode. The main thing in this episode was getting Tina to pick up the role of Black Canary. I did really like them going a bit into her backstory of when she became a meta-human, and I really like that they made the connection of she got the power of the Canary cry because she was screaming when the dark matter hit her. It was a little annoying how stuck up Tina was with any idea of having the Green Arrow help her on her quest for revenge. The parts with Talia in this episode were really interesting with her knowing all these things about Oliver and what he has done. Now it seems like she is going to help Oliver become the Arrow. And she just seemed like a really cool character and I can't wait to see more of her. It was really fun to see Felicity using some of her hacking skills to find a way to help out Diggle. And it was fun to meet one member of a group that is kind of fans of Felicity's past hackism work. Just overall this was an interesting episode to watch but it was a little boring and not that much to it.

Agents of SHIELD Season 4 Episode 12 "Hot Potato Soup" Review


Dr. Radcliffe goes after the Koenig family to find the location of the Darkhold. The Superior reveals his plans to Radcliffe.

This was a really great episode that had so many moments I loved so much and it was really great watching everything play out. Bringing the Koenig's back into the mix as well as introducing a few more of them was really great. And I still continue to love the moments where people are confused by how there can be so many of them and how it seems that when one dies another pops up. Then the scene where Radcliffe is trying to get information out of Billy by acting like he was being held hostage too, was a really interesting idea. I do wish that they would have introduced The Superior in some way before this episode but he still was a really cool character and I can't wait to see more of him. Then I liked Fitz working on the android Radcliffe to try and get information out of him and discovered a connection between Radcliffe and his father. And I'm really happy that they brought back the computerized brain that Aida was working on. And the revile of android May I wish would have gone a bit different than how it did because I can't quite figure out how Coulson knew she wasn't May. Then whole ending standing off between SHIELD and the Watchdogs was really interesting with how everything went down. I kind of wish that after all the effort Radcliffe didn't end up with the Darkhold, but I am very excited to see what all Radcliffe has planned and what kind of repercussions are going to come out of him using it. And just overall this was a really great episode and I can't wait for more.  

The Flash Season 3 Episode 11 "Dead or Alive" Review


Barry Allen and Cisco Ramon must work together to save Harrison Wells from an inter-dimensional bounty hunter who seeks to kill him, as it is a crime on Earth-19 to transport yourself to another earth. Cisco and Barry must fight against the bounty hunter in a fight to the death to save Harrison's life.

This was a really great episode that was a little hard to follow at moments but it still was so cool to watch everything play out. I am so happy that they are finally working on improving Cisco's powers more and I hope that Gypsy's appearance continues to have the growth happen so that he can be equal to her. It was nice that they did find a place for Julian on the team, kind of, with him being a bit of the mathematician and calculating the probability of things working out. Then HR's whole part where he explained why he left Earth-19 was really interesting even though I didn't fully understand it. And I really liked Cisco's moment where he talks about why he want to save HR and it being because the other Wells had always been there for him so he wanted to do the same for this Wells. All the parts with Iris in this episode made me so mad. Because I really liked the team up between Iris and Wally, and I understand Iris's whole idea that if she is going to die she wants to make her life matter before that happens. But the fact that she constantly is putting her life in danger in order to reach that idea because she has the mentality that she knows when she is going to die and it is not today is so stupid in my mind. Because Barry already proved that changing events in the present can change events in the future so Iris still could die in the present and then the future will change because she will already be dead. And her whole new even more headstrong personality because she kind of knows the future is so annoying. And the way this episode ended was a little predictable with Barry coming to the conclusion that maybe he can't save Iris but Wally can. But overall this was a really great episode and I can't wait for more.
