Magnum PI Season 1 Episode 3 "The Woman Who Never Died" Review

Magnum is hired to find out the true identity of a man's comatose fiancée when he learns that she's had extensive facial surgery.

This was a really great and exciting episode that was really well done and had a very interesting story to it and it really only had a few messy spots to it. The whole investigation into this women was really interesting with the slow reveal of information around how this woman has lied about certain parts of her past life as well as her current life. The reveal of the jewelry robbery this woman was apart of and the fact that she has a daughter were an interesting reason behind her face reconstruction in order to hide from her scary ex-boyfriend. The part that bugged me was who the ex-boyfriend was because it really kind of felt like they rushed to connect a person as the bad guy because the first scene were you meet this guy he truly didn't seem to know this girl and he didn't seem like all that bad of a guy, and then by the end of this episode his personality completely changed and things between his personality through this episode just didn't make a lot of sense. Then Higgins getting involved in this case was interesting with the parts she played in helping Magnum get information and helped keep things calm during the hostage scene. TC was really fun in this episode with him being mad at Magnum for offering free helicopter rides to people who Magnum gets help from instead of Magnum paying these people. And the joke TC make of watching over Magnum and what he is doing was so great with how it was shown. Then Rick was really great with him being there as a bit of a emotional support for Magnum and the fact that this case kind of hits close to home for Magnum. The new police detective Gordon Katsumoto that was introduced in this episode was interesting and I do really like the relationship between him and Magnum more than the relationship between Magnum and Tanaka in the first episode. I'm also really excited to see how that new relationship will be tested in the next episode when Magnum is framed for a crime. Then just overall this was a really great episode and it was so much fun to watch. 

American Horror Story Apocalypse Episode 4 "Could It be... Satan?" Review

Michael’s history as a teenager, and how he came to find himself at the Hawthorne Boy’s school, is revealed.

This was a really great episode that was so well done and I completely understand and agree with the fact that this is the highest rated episode for the whole series. I loved seeing a bit of Michaels teenage years and some of his powers and his relationship with the real Ms. Mead. I’m very curious to know if Michael is aware of what he is and he is just playing dumb or is he truly believe that he is a really powerful warlock. Everything around reintroducing the coven witches and seeing how they interacted with the warlocks was so great even for me who never really cared for the Coven season and struggled to get through it. I did enjoy seeing a bit of what Mallory was like before her memory was wiped and how powerful they seemed to make her seemed to set her up for a possible new supreme. Then Michael going and getting Queenie out of the Cortez and Madison out of her personal hell was really great and fun t show himself off a bit to the witches and show just how powerful he is was such a great way to end the episode. Then just overall this was a really great episode and I’m so excited to see Michael do the seven wonders in the next episode.   

New Amsterdam Season 1 Episode 2 "Rituals" Review

Max avoids coming to terms with his diagnosis, instead focusing on the hospital and his wife's condition; Frome and Kapoor take a school district to New Amsterdam's in-hospital court over a young boy's extensive psychiatric medication.

This was a really cool episode that had a lot of great moments to it and it was just really great to see how everything played out. Dr. Sharpe was really interesting in this episode with her working with Max to get him to comprehend his illness more as well as her getting back in the motions more of working with patients and being a doctor again. I want to know though if Dr. Sharpe emotionally reacting to some of the patients was because of some past family experiences if it was just because she was out of practice working with patients. Then the moments with Dr. Frome and Dr. Kapoor were really great with them wanting to free this kid from all of the drugs he is under in order to help him work through his emotions but the school board won't allow it. The evidence that the school board brought in to show why he should be medicated was weird because they were using one moment of a major emotional rush as a reason to keep him in a medicated haze. Then the other part that bugged me was when Dr. Frome and Dr. Kapoor used a dialysis machine to free the kid of all of his drugs so he could talk for himself and Max yelled at them for that saying that if the didn't stop it immediately they would be punished but they didn't face any consequences. Then Dr. Reynolds dealing with this one patient and her family wanting to a ritual of protection of her before surgery but Dr. Reynolds not wanting to accept the ritual because it wasn't sanitary. It was especially fun with all the bad luck Dr. Reynolds faced around this patient before the ritual. Then the conversation with Dr. Bloom was really great with how she brought up to Dr. Reynolds all the rituals he does like scrub his hand a certain amount of time and say a little prayer before he goes into surgery are all the same as the ritual the family did. The part that bugged me about the moments with Dr. Reynolds was how long the other doctors were willing to let him work on this girl who was clearly unresponsive, now it could have been only a few moments but it felt like twenty with how they showed it. Then just overall this was a really great episode and I'm interested to see what will happen in the next episode.

The Gifted Season 2 Episode 2 "unMoored" Review

Thunderbird hopes a mutant lawyer who recruited him to the Underground can help find the Inner Circle; Andy and Lauren have a shared dream; Reed must keep a secret from the group; Jace is back on the mutants' trail.

This was a really interesting episode that did have some weird moments to it and it left me a little disappointed with how everything was shown. It kind of annoys me how they're still keeping us in the dark about plans and people because we still don't know what the Inner Circle has planned we just see people training and preparing for something but we don't know what and that is kind of annoying. Everything with Andy and Lauren was interesting with there shared vision becoming more clear and it was kind of cool to see it from Any's perspective this time and how the vision affected him and his powers. Then the idea of Andy not being faithful to the Inner Circle was a little weird and overdramatic because all he did was an attempt to check in with his family and see how they are and everyone treated it like he revealed everything. But it was cool how the Inner Circle managed to convince Andy to use his fear and pain he is feeling from these vision as strength to better control his powers. Then the moments with Thunderbird and seeing a tinny bit more of his past was great but I wished they would have gone more into detail of his relationship with this lawyer lady because they seemed to set up a bunch between the two of them but there was little payoff of information on the two of them. I'm very curious to know more about the Ergic person that the lawyer recommended and I can't wait to see how he will help. Reed's powers getting out of control was a cool moment with his powers melting a bunch of stuff. Then the moments with Jace were interesting because he finally worked through some of his emotions and decided to be there for his family more. The ending of this episode was really great with Marco's using a Champaign bottle to shine a green light in the sky for Polaris and her seeing it and then discovering that their baby is having problems. Then just overall this was a really entertaining and interesting episode and I'm very curious to see what will happen next.

Manifest Season 1 Episode 2 "Reentry" Review

The passengers find themselves under government scrutiny; Ben tries to help a fellow passenger reconnect with his son; Cal is approached by an obsessive stranger; Grace and Olive disagree over revealing a devastating secret.

This was a really interesting episode that had some great moments to it. Everything around Ben and Radd was really great with there journey to prove Radd's son innocent of the robbery he was framed for. The actual reveal of who the robber was and why they were willing to let Radd's son take the fall was interesting but it also felt a little rushed and felt like they just picked someone random to be the real villain. Everything with Michaela was great with her working to get her job back and find her own place in the world but she also is having to confront everything she managed to avoid for five years. Then Michaela confronting her friend about the marriage and everything was interesting with the fact that Michaela was willing to lie about not wanting to marry Jared but we as viewers know otherwise. Then Cal struggling to get back to a normal life was interesting with how they chose to show it by having him missing his own stuff. The only part that bugged me about that was how long it took Olive to reveal that she kept all of Cal's stuff because she could see how much pain he was in but yet she waited several days to get his stuff. Then Ben discovering Grace's other man was weird with how they chose to approach it with Ben figuring it out when he helped Oliver pick up Cal's stuff. Then how Ben confronted Grace about it was weird because he kind of made this seem like he was saying look I don't care what you did while I was gone but I'm here now so just focus on me, and that was odd how willing Grace was to just abandon this other guy for Ben. Then just overall this was an interesting and great episode and I'm excited to see what will happen in the next episode.
  

Magnum P.I. Season 1 Episode 2 "From the Head Down" Review

Magnum helps a struggling fisherman when his 30-pound tuna worth $350,000 is stolen and discovers that the thief needs Magnum's help too.

This was a really great episode that was so much fun to watch and see how everything turned out. I loved that this episode was willing to make fun of its self for the fact that the plot for this episode is kind of dumb and isn't all that exciting. Then everything around the hunt for the tuna and the discovery that inside of it was a bunch of information that some terrorists needed was an interesting way to make things more exciting. The whole negotiation scene was a little overdone with how the other side was instantly ready to kill Magnum before he even did anything. And who actually ended up taking the tuna from the fisherman and why was interesting because it was a recently fired employee of the fisherman and he was just trying to get his family back from kidnappers and he was using the fish as ransom money. Then the scenes between Magnum and Higgin's were great because of how they interacted with each other and worked to stop the terrorists. Then just overall this was a great episode and I can't wait to see what will happen next. 

American Horror Story Apocalypse Episode 3 "Forbidden Fruit " Review

            
Ms. Venable and Ms. Mead enact a sinister plan on Halloween, while a figure from the past resurfaces.

This was a really great episode that had so many interesting and great moments to it with a very surprising ending. It was interesting how they sort of rapid fired through the rest of the interviews only highlighting the important parts for each person. The moment with Dinah in her interview was interesting with how it seemed that Michael and Dinah knew each other and knew the power each side held, so I’m curious to see how they know of each other. And the interview between Mallory and Michael was just awesome and reviled a lot where it looks like Mallory is a witch and doesn’t know it but she is also powerful enough to scare Michael. There was also the revile that Michael possible killed all the witches or at least thought he did. The truth around Ms. Mead and why she was built was an interesting revile that I’m excited to see more or the truth in the next episode. The Halloween party was great with the appearance of the apples and Ms. Venable and Ms. Mead using them as a way to almost guarantee their chance in the sanctuary. Which with that I have to say that was probably the quickest way they managed to kill off the most of the main people in one go which was so surprising. The ending of this episode and the return of some of the witches from Coven makes me really excited to see what will happen next. I really want to know the purpose of Emily and Timothy because they were so heavily focused on for the past couple of episodes to not have them matter is weird but if they truly were there to just represent the destruction of everything even love I could kind of see them no longer serving any purpose, but still I want more of them at some point. But overall this was a really great episode and I’m really excited to see the next episode where they are going to the murder house and we get to see further back in Michael’s story.
