Task: We
finally got a face to face with Tom and Robbie.
Though I guess it was more face to back of the head for most of it. We also got a fairly anticlimactic reveal of
the mole. There has to be another shoe
to drop otherwise why do cryptic with the Martha Plimpton phone call last week?
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon: Wait, there are still lepers in the
world? That seems like something that
got cured a while ago. Or maybe it is something easily curable with
modern medicine, but without it, leprosy has returned. Kind of sucks in a zombie apocalypse you
contract a disease that kind of makes you look like a zombie. But I get Carol not coming, but maybe Daryl
should have taken someone else.
Only Murders in the Building: I am not a fan of starting a episode and then
giving us "x amount of time earlier" title card. That trope seemed very unnecessary here. The Silver Alert bit would have been just as
funny if we did not know it was coming, probably funnier. But what a way to realize that Dylan and
Becky Ann Baker are married.
I am shocked that I have spotted all the title sequence
easter eggs so for this season. Though
this one was pretty obvious as the creepy kid showed up (at least) four
times. I was wonder how they could
possibly incorporate that in the show and it did not disappoint. I am surprised that none of the trio got
locked in the basement with the kid.
Maybe that will happen in a future episode.
Speaking of Bash Steed offspring, the most interesting clue
this week may be that the mayor’s assistant is Bash’s niece (or, more likely
his great grandniece). My mayor
prediction seems to be looking better every week. I am pretty sure he wacked Nicky, but I think
there could be someone else who did Lester.
But the big money wrench into any theory is why did the
billionaires steal the finger? That was
extremely suspicious. And why would that
be a prize? It has to tie into the
casino plans, but what could a rotting finger have to do with that? But the Celebrity Game bit with all of the
Oliver stories helping them win is the highlight of this season so far.
The Lowdown:
Hooking up with the widow. That
is an interesting way to work on the case.
I cannot image it will end very well though.
Survivor: It
is really time to stop it with these three tribes nonsense. One team always loses most, if not all, of
the Immunity Challenges and it is just boring seeing the same team going to
Tribal every week. Then why even do the Immunity
Challenge this week? Now you are going
to have unbalanced tribes with the swap next week.
The Challenge: Vets and New Threats: Okay, the Stake a Claim makes more sense seeing
it in practice. But it is weird that the
participants did not get to change their clothes into something more
athletic. Almost as weird, everyone else
just had to sit there for what had to be over an hour if it took them 35
minutes to make it up the mountain. I wonder
if they will switch it up if anyone else stakes a claim later this season. It was kind of a boring competition.
Peacemaker: So,
every DC project for the next couple years it just going to have the big bad
(and maybe a few good guys) of every movie and show joining Peacemaker in that
dimension until their inevitable attempt at Infinity War / Endgame. Oh joy. That just made an already lackluster finale
worse. And what the fork was up with the
random Nelson cameo?
