House of the Dragon:
Way too many Targerians on the show.
What was great about the Game of Thrones was that each clan has different
hair color so you could tell them apart.
But ninety percent of the cast has white hair. At least one is a black dude. But the king telling his daughter about the
Long Night got me thinking, will these HBO shows ever try and retcon the final
season to fit whatever George R.R. Martin ends up writing in the final two
books. Though that would have to depend
on Martin actually finishing the last two books.
Tales of the Walking Dead:
Yet another somewhat funny episode, but like many Groundhog Day stories,
this one got old fast. And the CGI
explosion was really bad.
In
the Dark: We finally
get to Darnell getting shot and we still had to go back a couple days. So stupid.
Only
Murders in the Building: I
laughed so hard twice during this episode that I had to rewind it, when Charles
started going into slo-mo (okay, I had to rewind a second time when everyone
else joined in) and when Charles came back to life like The Undertaker. Very
satisfying conclusion to the mystery, though I will nit-pick and say it was a
little cheap that it was Poppy (who kind of looked like Aubrey Plaza back in
Oklahoma) whom Kreps was hooking up with, not Cinda as the finale scene of the
last episode suggested. One more nit-pick for the season as a whole: so Amy
Schumer trying to buy the rights of the podcast was just completely dropped? I
thought the trio fighting over if to sell the rights or not would end up being
a storyline this season but was not even mentioned after the second episode.
Now we have a new murder which begs the question,
will they have to change the name of the podcast? Or the television show? But
the "she" Charles and Paul Rudd were fighting over has to be Mabel,
right? Lucy is too young and there really is not anyone other females would
care that deeply about unless he met another one in that year break. Mabel was
the only one to stand up in concern over Rudd collapsing.
Hopefully the show follows its trend of
premiering just 10 months after the previous season premiered and we get season
three in April of next year. Though I am guessing for Emmy reasons it will not
premiere until June again so it will not be competing with itself.
Motherland:
Fort Salem: So no
Chekov’s witch bomb? Kind of a confusing
finale, I am still not entirely sure what was up with the daughter.
The
Challenge: USA: If they are
only eliminating one person an episode from here on out, that means there will
be a lot of people in the finals. I just
hope that Angela somehow comes in last next week with Sarah volunteering
herself to go in and Angela just walks over her in the elimination. All this bluster Sarah has had this season
with no wins to back up her talk has to leading to something.
The Resort: This is it, all the lead up has led to the whole in the ground. Hopefully we are in for some profound twist next week because if we do not get some profound finale, this show likely will not be worth it.
