Manifest Season 1 Episode 9 "Dead Reckoning" Review

When Ben and Michaela put everything on the line to save the other missing passengers, the mission goes horribly awry and not everyone makes it out alive.

This was a really great and interesting episode that had a very great storyline to it that was great to see play out and bring up the tension. All the steps that everyone went through to finally uncover were the missing passengers are being held and how everyone played into things was great to see everyone working together. I did have a problem with how heavily Jared is following Michaela and wouldn't really let her do anything on her own. Seeing Ben and Vance working together was great to see that Vance truly is a good guy just trying to figure everything out. Then Cal showing up and helping everyone figure things out because of his visions was really great especially with the moment with him making the comment the Ben is the only one who can guide everyone to safety was weird but great with Ben seeing a path that no one else could see. Which then lead to the other group that wasn't with Ben getting lost and hurt. Killing off Vance was surprising and I'm very curious to see what they might happen now that he is no longer there as a higher up to help. And I'm also curious to see what might happen to all these missing passengers now that they are saved but still comatose. Then overall this was a really great episode and I'm so excited to see what will happen next.  

Charmed Season 1 Episode 7 "Out of Scythe" Review

When Harry informs the sisters that Hilltowne is a portal to hell, they must band together to fight off a shadowy demon trying to obtain a collection of powerful magical artifacts.

This was a really interesting episode that had some good moments to it and some moments that were a little hard to follow. Everything around the gathering the pieces of the scythe and figuring out who is after it was great. Especially with all the other kind of mystical creatures that the sister encountered. Then everything with Maggie and Parker possibly starting a relationship now that they are free from possibly hurting Lucy is an interesting thing that I wonder what is going to happen going forward once more secrets are revealed. Mel working through what she wants to do with her life with time rewriting things was interesting with the new weird electric witch showing up to add a new love interest to her life. Macy being given the task of firing Galvin was great with Macy working to figure out which is more important her new job or her friendship with Galvin. The only problem I had with Macy's scenes how easily she managed to save Galvin and prove his important by basically saying that Galvin is a good friend to everyone. Then overall I'm curious to see what will happen next now that the scythe is all put together. 

Supergirl Season 4 Episode 8 "Bunker Hill" Review

Nia has a powerful dream about Agent Liberty but refuses to look at it as a prophetic dream and pushes it aside. After noticing something is bothering Nia, Kara enlists Brainy's help, and the two try to persuade Nia to embrace her destiny. Meanwhile, Manchester Black pays Ben Lockwood a menacing visit.

This was a really great episode that was so well done in its storyline and had a lot of great moments to it. Everything with Brainy and Nia was great with Brainy helping to guide Nia though her dreams to figure out what everything means and where the attack is taking place and just really helping Nia to control things more rather than just living through her dreams. Then all the scenes with the three of them going to this small town to hunt down Ben Lockwood was great with them seeing more of the reach of the Children of Liberty and having to avoid getting into to much trouble. Manchester Black's confrontation with Lockwood was great with Lockwood's wife learning what Ben has been up to. And just seeing all the conversations and fighting between Manchester and Lockwood was really great. Then the final moments with Ben being arrested for his actions and seeing the public outcry for his arrest was interesting to see. Then just overall this was a really entertaining episode that was so great to watch. 

Midnight Texas Season 2 Episode 5 "Drown the Sadness In Chardonnay" Review

Lem makes a shocking decision; Olivia's past comes back to haunt her; Fiji seeks outside help from her fellow Light Witches; A suicide pits Manfred and Kai against one another.

This was a really confusing episode that was entertaining to watch and had some good moments to it. Everything with Lem in this episode was just odd with his decision to stop being a vampire so that he can have a family with Olivia and everything else that he wants. Then everything with Olivia in this episode was just weird with her finally confronting her father and finding out that he is still stuck living in the past to live where he felt happiest. How Olivia got stuck in her fathers trap and how Lem and others got her out of it was a little confusing, rushed, and felt like they were trying to wrap up everything they set up.

Fiji's parts in this episode were great with the truth coming out about her curse and why she is the way she is. That truth is that she is actually a dark witch and not a light one was a great reveal but a little confusing. Because why would that be a secret to her and if her own family didn't know how could they not. I feel the difference between a dark witch and light witch should be easily seen so it is known. Then it was also confusing how Fiji was all the sudden a master at dark magic once she realized she had it.

Then the moments with Manfred and Patients really felt like it should have been its own episode because it also felt a little rushed when trying to compete with the Olivia storyline. I did enjoy Manfred trying to figure out the mystery of why this girl killed her self and figuring out that she was actually murdered by her friend. And how all these things lead back to the idea of no one can escape from Kai was great with how it is becoming known that Manfred and Patients are in a relationship. Then just overall this was a really entertaining episode that was a little hard to follow but it had a nice couple of storyline to it.  

Riverdale Season 3 Episode 6 "Chapter Forty-One: Manhunter" Review

Betty follows some strong leads in hopes of finding out who the true Gargoyle King is; Veronica's attempt to prove Archie's innocence lands her in hot water.

This was a very confusing and a real mess of an episode that was kind of hard to follow and really felt like they were trying to just connect events all in the hopes to start tying up all of the storylines they have set up. Everything with Betty in this episode was just a mess with her working to find out who did the original poisoning during the Midnight Clubs events. And everything with Penelope is just confusing being her motivations and actions just don't make any sense. Then everything with Jughead is just out there with him continuing to follow leads to bring him the Gargoyle King. I did enjoy the moments with them confronting Joaquin and learning a bit more about the in's and out's of the game that they haven't gotten to yet. Veronica's moments in this episode were just odd with her looking into freeing Archie and the evidence she found was just way to easy and her confrontation with her father made very little sense. Then Archie's actions in this episode were just odd where he went to confront the other kids who accused him only to find them dead at Hiram's hand. Then just overall this was a confusing episode that felt like a bit of a mess with how it was all put together. 

The Flash Season 5 Episode 7 "O Come, All Ye Faithful" Review

While Nora grapples with unresolved anger over her father's disappearance in the future, Barry and Team Flash must stop a powerful new meta, Weather Witch, from killing her own father, Weather Wizard.

This was a really great episode that was so much fun to watch and see how everything turned out. Everything with Weather Witch was interesting to see with her going through all these different things in order to gain the chance to kill her father. The meta-tech that Weather Witch had was also cool with her having this staff made from broken weather radar parts that now helps her control the weather. Then seeing Nora throughout this episode was interesting with her having this growing fear of losing her father so she is doing a lot to try and protect him. One of her ways to stop him was well done with her comment being the best way to stop him from getting hurt is to have Barry stop being The Flash. That was really interesting to hear because it was true but then seeing Barry showing that he truly loves being a hero and having Nora see that he needs to be a hero was all well done. Then just overall this was an entertaining episode and I can't wait to see what will happen next. 

Magnum P.I. Season 1 Episode 9 "The Ties That Bind" Review

After a 16-year-old kidnap victim escapes her captors, her parents hire Magnum, who experienced similar trauma as a POW, to find who took her.

This was a really great episode that was so interesting to watch and see how everything turned out. Everything with Amanda was very interesting with her working through all the pain of what happened to help to then be able to help Magnum track down her kidnapper. And the truth comes out more about Magnum's experiences in the POW camp was interesting to see how Higgins reacted to everything. Then the part about locating was Amanda was being held was interesting with the police searches ended up going in the wrong direction and that is why they could never find her. Then the whole truth that the reason the kidnappers took Amanda was to get her father to kill someone he had access to was an interesting twist to the story. And how Magnum managed to save the day and stop things from going bad was all just entertaining to see. Then just overall this was a really well-done episode that was so entertaining to watch.
