Fear the Walking Dead: They have been teasing people dying all
season, Alicia go bit, Charli got radiation poison, and then they also revealed
this week that John had radiation poisoning, but they still killed him at the
end of the episode. I wonder if his death
saves the other two. But I just do not
understand Strand’s motivation. John admits
to framing Howard, but then kills his closest ally to team up with a guy who admits
to betraying him who then, shocker, betrayed him again. Then why not punish the people who stayed? I get you need June as a nurse, but why not
the other two?
The
First Lady: I once again broke my Wikipedia rule to refresh my
memory of if we have seen Lucy on the show before. It is kind of fascinating how the affair came
to public light which I will not go into in case it is covered on the
show. There is also another potential affair
that his son claims happens that I wonder if the show will comment on. This seemed like the hardship episode. Eleanor had to deal with the affair, we see
the start of Betty’s addiction, but Sasha having a very treatable ear infection
does not really have the same emotional sting.
The Man
Who Fell to Earth: Would
quantum fusion really throw the world in chaos that quickly? Oil is so ingrained over the world; we cannot
even integrated electric cars into society.
You know conspiracy theorist would keep about 20% of this country on
combustible engines for decades.
The
Challenge: All Stars: Ugg, Wes
said he is going to ruin the show and I fear he will do just that. Though surprising he played it safe when he had
the power by going with the second to last players being sent in (granted there
were five other people in on that decision) then when Jordan had the chance to replicate
after putting the sabotage on him, he was fine with putting Mark in over Wes. It seemed like everyone but Brad wanted Wes
sent in yet they still let Brad save Wes.
And Wes definite is not winning that elimination. Ugg, that guy is going to weasel his way to
the finals.
Then we have a new twist with stvrs being added to anyone who
wins elimination. At first I thought
this was kind of like the skulls they used on the main show where you are not allowed
to run TJ’s final without a skull. But
it seems like you can rack up the stars, Tina now has three. I do wonder if you beat someone with multiple
stars, do you get all of them. Now I am
thinking you will get some sort of advantage in the final; the more stars, the
bigger the advantage. Another question
is, will anyone volunteer for elimination just to get a star?
The Real
World Homecoming: New Orleans: Wait, did Julie and Jamie fork two decades ago? Was this common knowledge? I know my memory is not as great as it used
to be.
Survivor: Yep, the Do or Die still is stupid. But I wonder what would have happened had
Lindsey chosen to sit out. Does Johnathan
win Immunity by default and there is no Do or Die? Does Johnathan get the Do or Die by default. I wonder if production did not think of that
outcome. Even when bribed with food, not
that many people sit out.
It took a couple weeks but they finally got Drea and all of
her advantages out. Mike is a better actor
than I would have guessed because I really thought he had been bamboozled. The advantage
is called Knowledge Is Power and that is two straight seasons where the
powerful knowledge was not held with the person with the advantage but with who
they told the advantage’s power to. Way
too many people in modern Survivor have loose lips.
The
Flight Attendant: Oh my, a
very special episode of the show. Granted,
I liked Cassie much more when she was a fun drunk.
Under
the Banner of Heaven: Yet another
hour plus episode but at least very little crazy mother this week. I did not like that they told the story out
of order just to have the plot twist that the oldest brother was in on it the
whole time. It just made this episode hard
to follow.
Made for
Love: Only two more
episodes left? So much to figure
out. Hazel has to find a way to get back
control of her body. The scientists need
to get out of the cube. The FBI need to
find the cube. We need to figure out how
the ex-wife fits in to this all.
Hacks: Oh my, suing someone and keeping them in your
employment is extremely cruel. Ava may
end up being an indentured servant by the end of the season. Unless Debra grows a heart and only demands
restitutions of a dollar.
Halo: So Master Chief forks. I got a kick at the incels who got mad at that. Though maybe not hook up with an evil chick. Granted she may no longer be evil. She did take out her retractable laser nail. The irony with this episode being entitled “Allegiance”
was there were a lot of floating allegiances this week to point where I am not
entirely sure where everyone stands with each other by the end of the episode.
Big Sky:
Prediction time: Travis teams up
with Ren to take down her father and part of their agreement is she moves out
of Montana. This would be a shame because
the Indian drug lords have been the only interesting part of this show.
The Blacklist:
So Marvin was behind this the whole time. I guess that is better than someone we did
not already know. But when did Red
figure this out? He did not kill the lady
so he must have had the inkling at some point between when he got the name from
the bank and when he kidnapped her from FBI custody.
