Westworld:
So is Neo-Delores (am not going to bother learning her new name) some
sort of descendant of whoever the robot was modeled after (Ford’s mother I
think). Is this taking place in robot heaven,
where Teddy’s conscience went off to?
But then, how did Neo-Delores get there?
Season three was pretty bad, yet, I did not have the premiere. But this season is early.
The
Man Who Fell to Earth: Oh wow, the FBI dude got shot by his subordinate. I did not see that coming. And I am not sure exactly why she did
it. But I kind of checked out early in
the episode because way too much torture for me. But is he dead-dead? When you shoot someone, then walk up to do another
shot up close is usually to make sure their dead. But I guess the question, will some alien
technology bring him back. Speaking of
murder, also was not expecting the daughter to jut push her father off the side
of the cliff. I found the horse murder
to be a bit sympathetic because it was sick, but then she just goes full
psychopath, But I guess the old alien is
not in Cambodia.
Irma
Vep: It was not until I
listen to a podcast that I realized that Irma is not an actual vampire, just a thief
pretending to be one. I feel so stupid,
but then again, I zone out whenever the director is on screen.
In
the Dark: Are the cops
stupid, they were clearly talking about drugs on the tape, yet they somehow did
not think to at the very least drug test the nerd.
Only
Murders in the Building: I kept
on seeing people talking about Easter Eggs in the title sequence and even after
knowing they were there, I never noticed one until the second episode of the
second season when I noticed Bunny walking her bird instead of the dog she usually
walks a dog. Ha, good one title sequence
creators. As for the episodes
themselves, the new episodes were dominated by stunt casting, which mostly
worked in season one.
But, oof, off to a bad start so far this year
(well aside from Shirley McLaine trying to cut the cheese, I cannot believe that
is something I just wrote). I do not
understand what Amy Schumer is trying to do.
Usually celebrities play a meaner version of themselves, like Sting hating
dogs and telling Tim Kono to kill himself, but she seems to being playing much
nicer than her public persona. Maybe she
just playing nice to get Oliver to sign over the rights of the podcast and
there will be a heel turn eventually. Then Cara Delavigne just cannot act (and that
kiss was very awkward). Surprisingly,
Michael Rappaport, who I will never forgive for ruining his season of
Justified, was the least annoying. But I
did love how Mabel spent most of her interrogation mocking him.
As for the mystery of who killed Bunny, nothing happened
that swayed me from my way too early prediction last season that Tina Fey did
it to give her true crime podcast some content.
Though Cara Delavigne does seem shady but I feel like she is the Teddy
Dimas of the season, someone who did something illegal, but not necessarily
murder. She probably is the forger.
Motherland:
Fort Salem: In the aftershow,
they mention how the actor playing Raelle got in a car accident. So that explains why she randomly just disappeared. I guess she may just be in bed for a couple episode. I did recognize her mom, but have little clue
who that bad dude was.
The
Challenge: All Stars: Kaylah definitely cheated and the shoe really
needs to put up curtains in the puzzles because even when they put up blinders,
someone like Kaylah is going to blatantly cheat. But I feel like I jinxed Kellyanne by rooting
for her as she keeps bombing, even in the paddle boarding which dominated earlier
in the season. But back to back wins may
actually get her back in the hunt.
Ms.
Marvel: Were we really
supposed to care for the new mentor who just showed up, gave a huge exposition
dumb right before he (presumably) died?
But I did get a laugh when his apprentice said, “I always wanted to say
that.”
The
Old Man: The
first two episodes were very strong, but Amy Brenneman is really dragging the
show down. Maybe he should have not just
killed her in her dream. I do not even
understand that whole divorce threat and how that would stop him from killing her.
