57 Channels and Only This Is On: October 19, 2025

 

Task:  Well, that was a tense opening scene; if an opening scene can last twenty minutes.  But what exactly was Robbie’s plan?  Was he trying to get the jump on the gang and hoping to take out as many as he could before he got got?  Why not just hang out at that lady’s place, then take your half and go to Canada after she sells it?  But now we get a big showdown between Tom and DJ Grassanovs.  Though, now that we know that the show will be competing for Best Drama and not Limited Series, it has to be asked, will we get a conclusion or is catching DJ Grassanova the second season.

 

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon:  It took me a while to remember who that lady was.  But why not just join Daryl when he left?  It is weird for her to just tail him and completely miss him while he was wandering the desert and running into lepers.  But of course, they were not able to rescue who they went there for; there is still one episode left.

 

Only Murders in the Building:  This may have been my favorite episode of the season.  The round table of bad ideas was great.  The blackjack table was great.  The therapy session was great.  I just wish they were longer.  There has to be some outtakes somewhere.  It is a shame this show has never released any.

 

As for the mystery, the two most intriguing tidbits we got this week was Sofia was having an affair (or at least Nicky thought so) and Randall was there when Lester died.  As for the latter, I think Randall was cleaning up after someone and was not actually the killer.  As for who Sofia was seeing, I guess the mayor has to be a part of this. Maybe he was teaming up with Sofia as a way to make sure Bash did not get the casino deal.

 

Chad Powers:  So, is Russ going try to hook up with the coach’s daughter as Russ?  Is the coach’s daughter going to put two and two together as to why Russ just happened to be staying at the same hotel as the team in random southern city?

 

The Lowdown:  Why isn’t this a buddy show between Hawke and Dinklage?   I think I would like that show more than what we got.  Now I wonder if Dinklage will be sticking around of was this just a one-episode thing.

 

Survivor:  I thought it was strange that they still had the vote out which would make the swapped tribes of three.  They switched things up and gave us two tribes. But really cruel that they made the best tribe and the worst tribe the two tribes and left it to the luck of the draw as to where you ended up.

 

But, oh my, we actually got a new challenge and I like this a lot better than the same boring puzzle they have been doing for decades.  This was much more entertain watching each tribe trying to figure out the best way to tackle then seeing players just place puzzle pieces.  Hopefully they keep switching these challenges up.

 

The Challenge: Vets and New Threats:  Ok, that was a brilliant plan keeping Theo and his partner from staking a claim.  Though it will likely only work this time and will not work again as Theo came back.  I do wish both men and woman did a couple rounds standing up before going to sudden death in this elimination.
