Riverdale Season 2 Episode 3 "Chapter Sixteen: The Watcher in the Woods" Review


Archie takes matters into his own hands; An unexpected turn of events leads the town to realize their darkest chapter may be far from over.

This was a really interesting and okay episode that wasn't all that exciting but it continued to do a lot of setting up of bigger plot points. And everything around Archie in this episode was interesting to see him starting up this whole group to do what they felt the police couldn't do and trying to catch this masked man so they're hanging up posters and making videos to show themselves off and referring to themselves as the red circle was interesting but I'm wondering what all the repercussions might be for Archie in the future when someone in the group gets out of hand or something goes wrong I'm just interested to see what's all going to happen there. Then the moments with Betty and her family were really great with them finally getting a message from the masked man and him saying that he wants to be known for the killing said he did he wanted to be posted publicly in the paper and stuff like that makes me really interested to see what's all in store for Betty's family in the future with them being the one who runs the paper. Then the moments between Betty and Kevin in this episode were really interesting and I kind of want to know more about what Kevin was up to because Betty was so afraid for him and all his antics that he did that night that I want to know a bit more about what Kevin was doing besides him just going out for runs and hitting on guys. Then I really loved everything with Jughead in this episode and him starting up his life at his new school and him figuring out who he should be friends to stay safe and that and Southside school you definitely need friends otherwise bad things will happen to you. And him working on trying to keep some of his old life from Riverdale High present in his new school by working on the paper and everything around that was really fun. Then the moments with Veronica in this episode okay with her continuing on her quest to figure out what her family is up to and her introducing her friends and Archie more to her father and with how this episode ended for Veronica and her father makes me really interested to see what secrets her parents are going to continue to hide from her. And then just overall this was a really interesting and fun episode that makes me really curious to see what's all going to happen moving forward.

American Horror Story: Cult Episode 8 "Winter of Our Discontent" Review


Ally confronts Kai meanwhile Winter must choose between Kai and Beverly when he makes a questionable decision.

This was a really amazing and entertaining episode that was so great to watch and see how everything was done and what all might happen going forward. And I really love that most of this episode revolved around Winter and her dealing with everything that's going on with Kai and her trying to decide if she is going to stick with her brother because he's her brother or if she's going to go with Beverly and try and protect herself. And I just really loved how she dealt with everything that Kai sort of threw out to her and how she sort of evolve to settling on that her brother really is out of hand with him making all these decisions to try and keep the cult going after he dies because he fully thinks that he's going to die at some point. And then I really loved the moment when Winter has to face off against the detective and she sort of harkens back to the last episode was Valerie Solanas and she tries to get the detective to call himself a turd and she calls him scum and does all this different stuff was just really amazing to see her finally sort of start to stand up for herself and making decisions for herself. And then the moments with Beverly or interesting with how everything ended and how it all sort of interconnected back to Winter because at the beginning of this episode Beverly made the comment to Winter that she had so much time to try and get her brother back on the right track otherwise Beverly was going to go and kill him so how old it turned out was just really amazing. Then the moments with Ally were really great with her whole conversation with Kai and her trying to understand why he's doing what he's doing and the fact that she joined the cult in this episode to try and get back her son and trying to get back everything that she wants makes me really excited to see what's all going to happen between Ally and Ivy in the next episodes. Then Kai's older brother's whole story makes me really curious to know what he actually had planned whether it is what Ally said that his brother really had a plan which was that he wants to try and have all these documents saying that he was trying to get Kai committed for insanity as a way that once Kai's plans eventually fail he will have a backup to say that he knew about it and he tried to stop it or if his older brother was actually genuinely trying to help Kai all that I'm really interested to know more about but with how this episode ended I don't think that's going to happen. And then just overall this was a really amazing and entertaining episode that you really need to watch to fully understand what all happened in what's all going on.

The Flash Season 4 Episode 3 "Luck Be a Lady" Review


A new meta called Hazard causes bad luck for Barry and the team, while Harry Wells returns to Earth-1 with a message for Wally from Jesse.

This was a really interesting and great episode that was so much fun to watch and see how they decide to do everything. And I really loved what they did with the character of Hazard where she was very different from any other villain because her whole backstory was that she used to be in a lifestyle of constant bad luck but then when she was changed she got into this major streak of having good luck and everyone else around her sort of got her bad luck. Then how they decide to do her sort of taking on her new lifestyle was interesting in the conversation between her and Barry where they are talking about everything that she's doing and she just kind of states it as well now everyone else gets to know how she felt, that was really interesting. And then I really liked how they would portray her overall where she didn't exactly want to hurt anyone and she wasn't like out for revenge or anything she just wanted to enjoy finally having luck on her side and that was a real sort of interesting character to see and I really loved it. Then I am really happy that they did bring back Harry because they definitely need a Wells because every other season so far there has been a Wells at some point and out of all them Harry has definitely been my favorite so I'm really happy that he's back and I hope that he sticks around for a bit longer than a couple of episodes. And then everything around the break-up of Wally and Jesse wasn't all that exciting to me because their relationship was not really ever shown that much so it wasn't that big of an impact in my mind. But I am really interested to see how Wally is going to grow as a character now that he's off doing his own thing away from the rest of the team and I'm really excited to see how that's all going to interconnect later on in the whole arrowverse scheme. Then the moments with Joe or really fun with him deciding if he wants to sort of sell the house and create a whole new life with Cecile and with how this episode ended for Joe I'm just really interested to see what's all going to happen in his life. And then just overall this was a really fun and exciting episode that was so entertaining to watch and see how all the different characters dealt with the bad luck that they were dealt.

Scorpion Season 4 Episode 5 "Sci Hard" Review


While attending a tech convention, Team Scorpion is taken hostage by a group attempting a virtual heist.

This was a really interesting and fun episode that was kind of nice because it was a very different story than something that they've done before with how the group was all broken up and how they solve the problems that they faced. And I really kind of like the moments with Walter and Paige in this episode and them being part of the group that was captured and are being held hostage and they sort of have to talk to the gunman to try and figure out what they want and how to get them what they want and do it without causing any death. And it was especially interesting with what the gunman wanted which was access to this bank that one of their sort of friends that they have pop up like once a season and the big problem that occurs is that this bank doesn't actually exist because the tech genius hadn't finished it yet. So the team had to come up with a different way to try and convince the gunman that they've gotten their money without actually having any money to give. Then the moments with Happy and Toby were fun with them being the two people outside of the arena and them having to deal with the police questioning what their motives are and all that stuff, and the best moments were when they had to go and actually rob a bank so then they had money to give the gunman. Then the moments with Cabe in this episode were really fun with him being the one person inside the building who wasn't taken hostage so he has to be there to sort of help Walter and Paige out and also dealing with all the gunman that stumble upon him. Then Sylvester was fun in his moments where he's trying to take his bar exam but also trying to help team Scorpion and he has to find a way to do both and the prospector who was watching over everything he's doing was just a fun little addition to everything. And I'm really curious to know if Sylvester actually passed the test by just getting the 80 questions that he did do done correctly or if the Prospectors just passed him because they knew that he needed to pass. And then just overall this was a really fun and interesting episode to watch.

Supergirl Season 3 Episode 3 "Far from the Tree" Review


Maggie reaches out to her estranged father when Eliza throws her and Alex a wedding shower, while Supergirl joins J'onn on a personal mission.

This was a really entertaining and interesting and exciting episode watch and see how everything turned out. I really kind of like that all of this episode revolved on Dad's and father figures and how all that interconnected and worked in this episode. I really enjoyed the moments with Maggie trying to connect with her father and trying to figure out what went wrong in the relationship and trying to establish a relationship again and just I really enjoyed how all that turned out and especially the whole speech that she gave her father at the very end of their scenes together where she talked about how she was originally like a scared girl trying to get your approval and stuff like that but she's learned to grow past that and she's her own woman now and all the stuff her father didn't want her to be and she accepts that as herself. And stuff like that was just really interesting to hear come out of her mouth but then I also like those little moments with her father trying to get along with her and trying to understand her and that was just really great and interesting to see. Then all the moments with J'onn trying to help out M'gann back on Mars and figure out what she's all been up to and stuff like that was really interesting with what it reveal to J'onn about the fact that his father didn't die in the camps and stuff he's still alive and that thought this a rouge group of white Martians that are working with M'gann is actually trying to stop the big final test that the white Martians are doing and stuff like that but they need J'onn's father's help to be able to find the staff and how it worked out and all that was really interesting. And I just really enjoy those moments in the beginning where J'onn's father doesn't believe that he is his son he believes that it's a white martian playing trick on him and how it eventually was revealed J'onn is his son was really interesting. And it was really interesting how Supergirl was kind of a supportive character in this episode even though I'm mostly here to watch Supergirl it was interesting to see her step down and give someone else center stage. And just overall this was a really entertaining and great episode and I can't wait to see what will happen next. 

The Gifted Season 1 Episode 4 "eXit strategy" Review


The mutants devise a plan to take down Sentinel Services; Eclipse looks to an old friend to obtain information; Lauren and Andy attempt to combine their powers to help the group.

It was a really great and entertaining episode that was so much fun to see how everything turned out and how they fix all the problems that they faced. And I really like the moments between Lauren and Andy in this episode and them figuring out a way to combine their powers to make them into a stronger force where Andy's powers are used for its destructive ability and then Lauren's powers are there to sort of guide Andy's. I just really like that because as I've said before their powers are really interesting because they're so similar but also really different. Then the whole plan to actually try and stop the Sentinel security trucks bringing Reed and Polaris to there high-security prison was really interesting to see all the different problems that they faced when their plans to go quite right. And I really loved the introduction of this other mutant who is a friend of Thunderbird and this other mutants ability is to sort of stop other mutants from using their abilities so that was interesting how Sentinel security was using mutants to sort of helping them. And then just the whole action sequence of everyone trying to get in and stop the Sentinel security was just so interesting and fun to see how every single one of the main characters played into it. Then the moments between Polaris and Reed in this episode were really interesting with how they started out not wanting to work with each other because Polaris sees Reed as the enemy but then when it came down to it they learn to work together and I'm just really interested to see how that might work in Reed's favor in the future. And then just overall this was a really amazing and entertaining episode watch and see and I'm really excited to see where the story go now that everyone's back together.

Arrow Season 6 Episode 2 "Tribute" Review

 Anatoly returns to Star City with a sinister agenda as Oliver tries to balance being the mayor, the Green Arrow and William's father.

This was a really interesting and entertaining episode that did a really nice job of having a bunch of really solid storylines going on all at once. I really liked all the moments with Oliver struggling to try and keep his other identity a secret from the public now that everyone's on high alert trying to prove whether he is the Green Arrow or not. And it was really interesting that they brought this FBI agent in to look into the case of Oliver Queen and that seems like a really interesting side storyline to keep going back to so I'm excited about that. And I really liked all the moments with Felicity and Curtis looking into the photo that seemed to prove Oliver as being the Green Arrow and them trying to find some way of how this picture got taken or what's all going on with it. Then the moments with Oliver trying to step up and become a father was really interesting with him trying to find a way to be what William need him to be and with how this episode ended I find it really interesting the choice he decided to make but I don't think it's going to last that long because Oliver will always be the Green Arrow. Then moments between Dinah and Diggle we're really interesting with the truth coming out more about what is wrong with Diggle and why he isn't firing his gun and the fact that they chose to keep it a secret up until the very end where they tried to tell the truth but just didn't get the chance to was really interesting and I'm curious to see what's going to happen when the truth does come out. Then all the moments with Anatoly we're really interesting with him using his and Oliver's old friendship as a weapon against Oliver as well as the fact of Oliver being under the public eye to his advantage to get Oliver to do whatever he wanted. But then the reveal at the end that Anatoly wasn't the one who put out the photo of Oliver makes me very interested to see who actually did. Then just overall this was a really interesting and great episode that I'm very curious to see where they're going to take the storyline.
