Dexter: New Blood:
So we are never going to learn just how Kurt found out that Dexter
killed his son? That is something fairly
big to yada yadda. But I guess that was a
fitting to Dexter Morgan’s story. Well,
having his son kill him so he could not kill anyone else. Not the part where Angela being so adamant
for Dexter to be locked up for killing the evil people, but letting Harrison go
and acting like she killed Dexter. I
just hope they do not try and spin off a Harrison show with Dexter talking to
him, that actor was really boring.
Claws: My prediction of a Desna and Jenn split really had
a roller coaster. First Desna let Jenn
run the new show. Expect one of the
first things Jenn does was assault a rival which set them up for blackmail. Oh, to avoid getting sued for assault, Desna
just shot her son. Huh. She is willing to sue you for assault, maybe
she will report you for murder. But
since Desna is the star, of course that did not hvppen.
Yellowjackets:
So Lottie said something is coming and they will not be hungry for
long. Well, that was ominous. She also said he doesn’t belong to her about
Travis to Jackie, but her visions can be fairly vague so maybe not. But if it is those two, who does Travis
belong to? By the looks of it, everyone
else. But a letdown with the ritualistic
killing because we know Travis was not going to die (though it cross my mind
for a half a second that maybe Javi was posing as adult Travis, but alas).
I was halfway
through the season by the time everyone got to watch the first episode and I was
surprised with how obsessed Reddit was with whom they dubbed the “Antler Queen”
was and they finally got that reveal. Though
that does not necessarily mean Lottie will still be the one wearing antlers
when we get to that scene in the Pilot, but my theory that Lottie is the girl
in the pit is not looking very good. One
thing that may complicate things is it looks like Misty’s wheels were spinning and
maybe she does more drugging and tries to out Lottie as she looks to be the leader
of the Wild Bunch clan. I got strong leader
vibes from her in that scene from the Pilot.
Another
theory that went up in flames this week was that Jackie was sending the postcards
(as well as another Reddit theory that Adam was really Javi). While I found the reveal that Jeff was behind
this the whole time because he owed Loan Sharks disappointing, I weirdly
enjoyed Adult Jackie’s storyline for the first time this season. I loved how Jeff said she could not get away
with the murder because they watched too much Dateline to know she could
not. But still, all of this does not add
up. Like Nat brought up, why would Jeff
murder Travis? And who cleared out his bank
account? If Jeff cleared it out, why
would he still need to blackmail Tai and Nat?
So maybe my Jackie theory is still in play.
I also have
a prediction that Jackie steals Shauna’s wilderness baby and if that baby is what
Lottie says is coming that will make them hungry no more, I could see Jackie
being the one sane person not tripping on shrooms and heads off into the
wilderness to keep it from being eaten.
I do wonder if Jeff knows about the wilderness baby. After reading Shauna’s diaries, I was
expecting he would bring that up. Did
she tell him already and claims it died out there?
Misty
psycho watch: has she actually become
friends with the person she kidnapped? I
thought maybe the reporter was just playing along hoping being nice would get
her released but maybe she has been successfully Stockholmed because she did
not even call for help when Nat was at the door. That would have been fun, Misty saying she
would help clean up the body if Nat did not tell anyone about the person in her
basement. But we should definitely get
the reunion in the finale and hopefully we learn of another survivor or
five. Though, who else graduated with
them? Van seems like the only other
Senior on the team, maybe Lottie.
The Book of Boba Fett:
Oh wow, bringing in the guest stars.
First Steven Root. Then Young Nat
from Yellowjackets pops up still sporting that mullet with bangs, but at least
it was one color. But maybe not wise to
make her do an accent. Which was
confusing because this is Luke Skywalker’s planet and he had an American
accent. Then the guy who brought in the
monster for the Hutt’s really looked like Danny Trejo and when they finally gave
him a close up I realize, oh, wait, that really is Danny Trejo.
The Real World Homecoming: Los
Angeles: Poor David,
could not make it to the end of another season.
But two straight seasons where a cast member did not make it to the
end. Maybe for season three, stop goading
them in to these past traumas until someone breaks. Just let them have fun.
The Challenge: All-Stars: That was some weird editing, Darrell
and Janelle were in second place while Nehemiah and Melina were dead last and wasted
a lot of time going to the caves first.
Sure Darrell and Janelle went to the memory game not realizing they read
the wrong directions, but then got the full memory board the very next
try. So how exactly did Nehemiah and
Melina, who twisted her ankle, edge out Darrell and Janelle? Did the bike just really gas you out for the
rest of that part and just one team doing it first and the other doing it last
make the difference.
But it
seems like production did not expect everyone to take that long to run TJ’s final
because they had to use headlights to provide lighting because the sun went
down before anyone could finish. It
seems like production forgets these are middle aged people doing these challenges. But the team that came in third (and only because
the other team quit) ended up winning because Darrell still did not learn to read.
The Blacklist:
One thing that never crossed my mind was how was Dembe involved with
Lizzy’s murder. I really rather they not
go back to that storyline because it was bad enough the first time.
