Supergirl Season 3 Episode 10 "Legion of Superheroes" Review
Supergirl remains in a dreamlike state after sustaining injuries from Reign, so Mon-El recruits Brainiac-5, a member of the Legion of Superheroes, to bring her back.
This was a really interesting and entertaining episode that had a lot of great moments to it. I really liked all the moments with Kara being stuck in a mental version of her apartment and she had to work through some mental issues before she was allowed to escape. And the introduction of Brainiac-5 was really great because, in my opinion, he was really well done and funny. Then the moments with the Legion of Superheroes actually getting together to help fight Reign on Supergirl's behave was a little weak and just looked like a mess with how everything went down and all they really did was distract her for a little bit until Supergirl came around to do actual damage. It was really interesting to see how they found a kind of weakness for Reign where she does have a weakness to Kryptonite but only in super high doses. Then the ending of this episode was really interesting with Reign being informed about the other world killers and is now on the quest to go and find them. Then just overall this was a really interesting episode that had some nice moments to it.

The Librarians Season 4 Episode 5 "And the Bleeding Crown" Review
A Librarian from the past teams up with the Librarians of the present to take down an ancient and powerful enemy let loose in the modern day. When superfan Flynn is met with the prospect of teaming with his Librarian hero Darrington Dare, he could not be more excited, until Darrington leaves the Librarians with this dire warning: There can be only one Librarian - ignore at your own peril.
This was a really fun and interesting episode that had a lot of really great moments to it and it feels really kind of weird that this seems like the first major episode for the underlining plot of the season and it took this long for them to get to it. I really loved the introduction of a past Librarian in Darrington Dare and just getting to see the contrast and similarities between how he and the other Librarians operated. Then the whole episode revolving around Darrington and his mortal enemy that can time travel and create really bad clones of himself is a little weird of a plot line but it still was fun. And the side effects of turning the town's residents old was an interesting addition but it felt weird and kind of pointless in the grander scheme of things. Then Darrington bringing up how prophecy has stated that there can only be one Librarian is an interesting understory for the season and I'm very curious to see where that will take the characters. Then the whole decision Flynn had to make between being there for his friends or his hero was interesting to watch him jump back and forth before actually making a real plan. Then just overall this was a really interesting and okay episode that had some parts that I liked and some parts that I really didn't care for much.

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.

The Librarians Season 4 Episode 3 "And the Christmas Thief" Review
Santa takes Flynn, Baird, and Jenkins on his first vacation in centuries; the Librarians use Santa's sleigh to save Ezekiel's career-criminal mother, as well as Christmas itself, from Santa's grinch of a brother, the Patron Saint of Thieves.
This was a really entertaining and fun episode to watch and see how everything played out and get to know a bit more about Ezekiel. With that, it was really fun to meet Ezekiel's family and get to see the environment that he grew up in and I really liked how we watching always knew him as this master thief but to his family, he is a failure because he never brought any of his success home. I really loved when they had to break into the house of thieves and Ezekiel had to keep reminding his mother to not say his name because he is very well known there for his past work. And just seeing Ezekiel gain favor from his mother once the truth came out was fun. And just overall this was a really fun and entertaining episode to watch and see how everything turned out.
Scorpion Season 4 Episode 12 "A Christmas Car-Roll" Review
Walter passes out and his Christmas Eve dream is of a world where Team Scorpion has never existed.
This was a really great and interesting episode that did a really nice job of taking a different kind of storytelling with everything being a dream and still having a really well-written story. I really enjoyed how everyone fit into there different rolls in Walter's dream with what he thinks their lives would be like if they never met each other. Then how Walter eventually managed to convince each of them to help him was interesting but I wish the way he managed to convince Happy and Toby would have been a bit more personal then just they were happily married to each other in the other world. Then I enjoyed how all the different problem that Walter faced changed as his condition in the real world got worse. And bringing back Ray to be a guiding force for Walter was really fun. Then just overall this was a really fun and entertaining episode to watch and see how everything played out.

The Librarians Season 4 Episode 2 "And the Steal of Fortune" Review
When people begin getting hurt in the unluckiest of ways, the Librarians follow the trail to a casino where the owner appears to possess an artifact capable of stealing people's luck.
This was a really great and entertaining episode that had a lot of really fun moments to it and did a nice job giving each Librarian there moment to shine. I really like the beginning of the episode where the Librarians are starting to realize the consequences that come with being the Librarian and having to keep it a secret. The parallels between there reaction and those of Flynn back in the movies was really great. Then Flynn taking on the more Judson roll was really fun with him popping up in mirror and stuff to give advice. Then I liked the connection between the Librarians and the case in this episode where Jake's friend is one of the people who got hurt by the bad luck. Then I liked the difference between Cassandra and Ezekial were once in the casino Cassandra was really lucky and winning everything and Ezekiel is freaking out because he isn't winning. The truth of what was actually causing the bad luck and who was the "bad guy" was really well done with the first guy they go after actually being an innocent victim. Then I really liked how the team got around the bad luck curse to actually stop everything was so great. And just overall this was a really great episode and I'm excited to see what will happen next.
