Zoey’s Extraordinary
Playlist: People kept giving grief
to Zoey about her
costume, but were we supposed to know who Rose was supposed to be? She just looked like someone practically
dressing for a race in colder weather.
The internet claims she was Victoria Beckham that almost makes sense if
Max was David Beckham but I do not really equate Posh Spice with a black puffy
coat with a hoodie. I guess I only think
of her in little black dresses. Sure that
would be the best attire for a seven mile run, but I am not sure a little black
dress would rank in the bottom ten worst things to run a race that we saw.
But to
be honest, I would not have much of a problem with Max going to New York even
permanently. I am just ready for the
love quadrangle to end anyway possible.
I was hoping Rose would end things, but Max and Zoey are still going at
it with lingering resentment from their relationship ending. Which is a shame, because I have really
enjoyed Rose in the little we have seen her.
But hey, at least Tobin is getting some and Leif is not being weird about
it. Well, other than that weird jumping
up and down, arms clenched in plain view of the office.
The Nevers:
So no Touched that can bring someone back from the dead. Though I think the crazy lady admitting to hanging
out in the dead girl’s casket. But that
twist at the end would have landed much better had I known who that chick was. They have done a pretty bad job making us care
for most of them and in some cases given a reason to even remember them.
Fear the Walking Dead:
Did I miss something? Last week I
vaguely remember someone talk about catching up to Alicia as they look for the
people who were tagging everything. Then
all of the sudden this episode starts with Alicia and her group already in the
taggers headquarters. Then the dude I barely
remember is seeing his brother he thought was dead and then killing him. And why is Alicia still there? Why couldn’t she light the match and join the
rest of them? Whoever edited this
episode needs to be fired.
Good Girls:
Ugg, Rio knows. Of course he
knows. He has to figure out everything
just to keep him on the show. Except the
show would be much better if they just brought in a new big bad every season. Haven’t the writers ever see Buffy or
Justified? Well, I guess the secret service
agents are not long for this world.
Mare of Easttown:
Yeah, the priest did it. Not the
priest they were questioning, but Mare’s cousin. The other priest is just covering for him by
dumping the bike. Sure, this hurts my theory
that the most famous person always does it and it is super weird that they cast
Guy Pierce just to be a red herring booty call.
Also weird: Mare all the sudden being a dirty cop. Bad look at the captain to look the other way. How is the baby mamma just going to let that
slide? Doesn’t Mare have to at the very
least give up custody to keep her quiet?
City on a Hill:
Ooo, Deep Cover: great song. I was
wondering if they were trying to signal he was undercover or even possibly a
snitch. But since he got shot by the end
of the episode, it looks like they were just playing a great song. But after how many people that kid had killed
now, it would be hard for them not to pin Siobhan’s shooting on him no many how
alibis his mother give him. Yet I have a
feeling he will go free or at the very least avoid the law so Decoursey will
need Jackie to enact his vengeance.
Debris:
Yeah, this definitely did not need to be two episodes. I was fun for an episode but it really dragged
on during the second one. Not to mention
it was extremely obvious once they started communicating threw time and space
the answer to solve everything was obviously both twins needed to jump at the same
time.
Cruel Summer:
We finally got the scene I was assuming that would happen for a while: Kate
and Mallory becoming friends united in their hatred of Jeanette. Now we have to wait and see if my early
prediction that Malory gave Kate the necklace is correct. It was weird that the show ended with the rape
crisis number even though there was no rape in the episode. I guess we are supposed to assume that is why
the dude would kidnap a teenage girl, but I am not sure the vice principal has
it in him to do that. Kate seems to kind
of dominate him, scratching and he is the one that always scurries away. Though, if not for sex, why exactly kidnap
her?
But I do
have one more prediction: the gunshot he heard in the first episode was Kate
shooting the VP. The whole shootout they
talked about on the news was overblown or possibly a cover-up. She even killed him with the gun the dude’s dad
used on himself (though I am not convinced he committed suicide, I think the VP
may have staged it; though that hurts my theory that dude does not have it in
him to do stuff like that; but hey, what is a mystery show without spitballing
some silly theories).
Supergirl:
Speaking of episodes that did not need a second one. This show needs
less Brainiac 5 and Dreamer, more.
Though by the end of the second episode, I realized I liked young Kara and
Alex than their grown up versions.
Especially Alex.
Big Sky: Does the sister want to die? If both of your brothers are stone cold murderers,
maybe you should tempt the murderers with the knowledge that you know. Speaking of dumb people, why was Ronald taking
his girlfriend and his daughter with him to bury her dead sister? The guy is supposedly a mastermind that has
been able to evade the police this long, but he is going to be caught by a ten
year old?
The Handmaid’s Tale: I do not think I have witnessed a dumber escape
plan ever than locking yourself in a milk car.
Pretty lucky that someone ambushed the train and that the car was able
to be opened from the inside. But Fred
is really the father? Way to establish
he was shooting blanks back in the first season. I fear this is just going to be the stupid plot
devises to get the Waterford’s back to Gilead.
The Challenge:
All-Stars: I laughed when Kendal was
trying to argue that it was better to have her puzzle upside down than to fix
it, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized she had a point. If all the pieces were in the right order,
why should it matter if it were upside down?
Unless there were rules they did not tell us, there was no right way to
do the puzzle as long as they are all fitting together. But big twist coming next week, that is it and
then the finals start after that.
Unfortunately thanks to the last promo, we know two of the contestants
that will be in the Arena.
With two less people that will get eliminated last week, that means twelve people in the finale. Geeze. Maybe they should have been doing double eliminations this whole time. Nine of the remaining fourteen contestants have not even been in the Arena. So at the very least, seven of the twelve finalist will have made it to TJ’s Final without winning an elimination. Or maybe they should have institute the Gold Skulls they have been doing recently on the main show. Granted that would just be Kendal, Nehemiah, Alton, Anessa, and Mark right now. Add the two winners from next week then subtract one since we know at least one of those people is going in again this week and a six person final seems more reasonable.
Manifest: So Noah’s Ark time traveled like 828? Alrighty.
Way to steer into the absurdity.
Yet not as absurd as Jared dating the Major’s daughter (they are definitely
learning what happened to her mom by the end of the season), that the new girl
looks like she is going to Single White Female Olive, or that anyone thinks
they are going to get all the 828’ers in the same lifeboat. It may be prudent just to kill everyone off
who are not following the callings.
Though the callings may frown on that.
The Blacklist: Why was Lizzy acting like that in the car? Why she trying to overact like Red? Is she turning into the person she hates the
most? Is that what this season is about?
