57 Channels and Only This Is On: February 8, 2026

 

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms:   The worst kept secret finally came out.  How anyone was surprised is the real shocker.  The guy shaves his head to hide something and whose nickname kind of sounds like a royal prince.  Despite being obvious, I wonder why the evil Targaryen horse killer believes him.

 

Tell Me Lies:  Um, why did multiple couples go to the anti-Valentine’s Day party?  Does that not defeat the purpose of having an anti-Valentine’s Day party if half the people there have valentines?  And how do you have an anti-Valentine’s Day party without playing the quintessential anti-love song: Love Stinks by the J. Geils Band?  But I do wonder if Wrigley picking Stephan as the most likely to go to prison is foreshadowing.

 

Hijack:  So, is that lady that supposedly knows Sam?  For a second I thought she was on the flight from the first season, but IMDB says she was not on the first season.  Does she know him from something else?  I am confused how she fits into this whole thing.

57 Channels and Only This Is On: February 1, 2026

 

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms:  And I thought the first episode started with something I really did not need to see.  This reminds me of the old SNL sketch where it was revealed a ten year old was writing Game of Thrones.

 

Tell Me Lies:  Well, that is one way to end an episode.  But I really thought I was right about Stephan calling Diana’s father and he was going to convince her to keep it when the dad called her in the waiting room. I still wonder if there is even a small chance there is a little Stephan running around in 2015.

 

Hijack:  They really wrote themselves into a lose-lose last week where either Sam was a cold-blooded killer or the cliffhanger was a cheap fake out.  It somehow was worse; it was a fake out and the dude still died.  This is getting stupid.

 

The Hunting Party:  If they do not go after the other lady soon and use this episode’s baddy of the week, it will be time to hire new writers.

57 Channels and Only This Is On: January 25, 2026


A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms:  I really did not need to see someone have projectile diarrhea. Remember when the worst thing on Game of Thrones was incest?

 

Tell Me Lies:  I went through all the possibilities of what could make Bree say she is the worst person in the world las week, I really was not expecting them to tip their hands this soon with Wrigley seeming professing his love for Bree with a lengthy digital footprint between the two.  I really did not think we would learn until the end of the season what that was.  So, either this is one big fake out or they have another massive bombshell coming later this season.

 

Hijack:  Wait, did Sam just straight up murder an innocent man? My number one rule of television is not to believe anyone is dead until see a body.  I wonder if he just cut the feed because you really come back from murder if he is supposed to be a protagonist.  Hijacking a train is fine if it is for the greater good, but murder is not.

Tell Me Lies:  What the fork did Bree do that her initial thought after hearing her future husband hooked up with her bridesmaids was, she is the worst person in the world?!?!?  My first thought is that she hooked up with Stephan.  Then I thought maybe something happened over winter break when she was staying with Lucy (though Lucy does not have a brother to hook up with and her father is dead… but she does have a sister).  But after being in the same photography class, my next thought was, did she hook up with Wigley?  Then there is also the whole freshman situation.  Will she hook up with the freshman?  Will she have a threesome with the freshman and Lucifer?  Is it going to be all of the above?  I hate we will probably have to wait five more episodes to find out.

 

Now, I cannot believe I am saying this, but Molly is low-key the MVP of the first three episodes.  I was shocked to see her again after Slapsgiving.  I guess you can attribute the first episode to her being on drugs, yet after that walk of shame, I once again thought we would never see her again, but she is still around.  Her storyline is going to end epically and hopefully they can outdo Slapsgiving.

 

The lowlight of these episodes is Diana being pregnant.  I really hope she does not return home after the wedding to a seven-year-old little Stephan.  But I am certainly not putting above Stephan to poke holes in a condom.

 

Hijack:  Wait, I thought this was going to be a Die Hard situation with Idris Elba at some point saying, “How does the same thing happen to the same guy twice?”  But he is actually going to be doing the hijacking this season. I also was not prepared for the “Last Season On” segment to be so long.  I guess this hijacking ties into the last one.  Alrighty then, buckle up.

 

The Hunting Party:  I glad that dude in the resin turned out to be dead. When they said to check the pulse, I was like, no, no, there is no possible way.  At least I got a good laugh out of the response.
