Reign 1.20 Higher Ground

Reign 1.20 Higher Ground
This show keeps changing! Glad Leith is coming back in the picture. Francis looks like he is  saving him the whole way and will allow him to marry Greer. That was a pretty bad fight those five guys went through. A bit unrealistic but Francis was able succeed on his own terms. Crazy King Henry better stop with his difficult behaviour because I have a feeling he may be the reason why Francis dies early. I also wonder if that will happen before second season.

Mary has lost it, but I dont blame her. She's been put through the wringer and dragged through the mud with everything thats happened to her in France. Now that shes capable of killing and hiring an undercover assassin, she's going to be ruthless here on out. Catherine still has her suspicions (she has every right to), so this will play out to be really interesting.

There's more with Bash and Kenna nowadays, but Lola and the mysterious husband is grabbing more attention. He finally confessed that he has no money to his name but is manning up at last. I think the birth of the baby can bring them closer,  just as long as he never finds out it's an heir to France.

I see more politics and bloodshed in the show, as opposed to love as the chief decision maker. Everything needs to be played smart, not with the heart. Its all politics and survival of the fittest. Really hope it stays that way since the "dark magic" story line is getting old.

The Following 2.15 Forgive

That was an action packed start to a finale! I didn't think Joe would shoot Preston dead! Then again since his dad died for him, he wouldn't have had use for the rest of the episode. Pretty stoked Emma is officially out of the picture. I think she is too much and really needed to go before third season came around.

I actually predicted this kind of finale. I thought Joe and Ryan would have to team up for a common purpose. Before Claire showed up midseason, I thought it would be to take out the twins and Lily.

The change in their behaviour once they show up to rescue Claire. I personally thought it was a voice recording in the hidden room. I noticed the twins took out their anger on Ryan more than Joe because of their soft spot for Claire (Joe is better with words and manipulation, Ryan is the hero).

I'm glad they took out evil twin Luke. Mark is a whack job in his own way but at least he is tamed. I wonder who the mystery person in the driver seat is. It's definitely someone blending in with society. I hope season three lives up to all of the action that has happened.

I also wonder if they will keep Max and Mike together and Ryan with the newscaster.

This finale was fantastic!

Reign 1.18 No Exit

Reign 1.18 No Exit
I'm actually glad Francis turned everything around and stood up for himself. I know last weeks episode I was thrilled Mary did the same for herself and Scotland, but this time Francis was the one who took control to protect Mary.

I think James is the one who hired the third party Englishmen to order the assassination on Mary at sea. If he would want to be king of Scotland, he would be ruthless. He's also a half brother too so he would feel threatened by Mary controlling three countries.

Kenna and Bash look like they're finally getting along. I think their story will grow into something better. As for Lola, I think she got herself in a bad marriage. The guy probably has no inheritance even though everyone hears he comes from wealth. I wonder if Francis will ever find out about the baby. That will be a plot twist but Francis may die before he knows about it.

I'm glad Nostradamus is staying behind in French court. He needs to be around for the sake of his sanity (and Catherine's). King Henry better get back to normal and explain these visions. I think it was a younger brother or friend of his that passed on. I thought it could be young Henry but I don't know why a younger version of himself could be tormenting (especially when you're king).

The Following 2.13, Bates Motel 2.07

The Following 2.13 The Reaping
Is it strange my sister and I were cheering for Mike to shoot Lily? We knew Ryan wouldn't hold it against him for his anger, but now he may turn him in to the FBI and say it wasn't self defense. Mike has been aching on the inside since his father, so I hope he doesn't get thrown off the case =(

Now that the cult has been destroyed, Ryan should find clues to get closer to Joe. Not sure what the end game will be though because you either put him in jail or do the same thing Mike did =/ I also think Claire is going to get herself killed again now that Joe knows she's alive. She thinks the secret message will throw him off his game (which it has for now) but I see agitation and aggression coming out of this. Yes it will lure him out of hiding but it endangers everyone.

Two episodes left in this season?! I can't handle this!

Bates Motel 2.07 Presumed Innocent
Norman's alter ego is getting stronger. He's speaking up more against Norma, but she is smothering him way to much. If she keeps it up, Norman may burst out and permanently be stuck in the "black out" part of himself.

Alex Romero is strangely attracted to Norma and is probably going to stop her from seeing George Heldens (Michael Vartan). There was male rivalry in the eye contact at the police station so I think this is going to be a new story unfolding. I also think George isn't an entirely good guy. He probably has skeletons in his closet.

I'm sad to see Cody go! I feel she was the only other good person, besides Emma, in Norman's life. Dylan already walked out because of the seriousness of his parentage and hatred for Norma. Miss Watson the likeable teacher mysteriously died in an unsolved murder, leaving Norman confused. Norman really only had Cody left to rely on without question. It's evil of Norma to twist everything and claim Cody is the problem to try and cover up her own tracks.

Now we know Norman slept with Blair *jaw dropping news* This is going to change everything from how easy Romero has been with the Bates family this season to the gossiping town reaction.

Oh and I have a random scene spotting; front desk girl in the police station plays Holly from Rookie Blue! I miss my Toronto cop show so much that I am noticing the characters everywhere.

Once Upon a Time 3.17 The Jolly Roger

Once Upon a Time 3.17 The Jolly Roger
Yes a Captain Hook episode!

Killian is living a double life, and he really turned into a hero this time around. I remember he was changing from the traditional villain last season when they were in Neverland. When it comes down to it, he does everything and all he can because of his love for Emma. He's also the character everybody has come to love. Not a fan of the curse he was slapped with. Now we watch his heart break some more. I have a feeling there will be a different curse that will test him. Kind of like Zelena placing a sleeping curse on Emma like sleeping beauty. The only person that can awaken her is true love's kiss, which would be Henry or Killian. If Killian does it, it takes away her magic. On the up side, at lease Killian is witty enough to outsmart Zelena and not believe her off the bat.

Haha the grandparents found out Henry thinks they're boring and take him joy riding. But really when it comes down to it, Josh Dallas and Ginnifer Goodwin are way too cute. They got married this weekend (random news, I know) and they're making this show even better with their character chemistry.

Zelena is so evil but adds a lot to the story. I wonder if anybody else will learn she is Regina's half sister in the episodes to come. I hope so, just so it doesn't linger anymore.

Reign 1.17 Liege Lord

Reign 1.17 Liege Lord
So King Henry is still batshit crazy and nobody knows why. Nostradamus would traditionally come in around this time but he doesn't look like he would unless Catherine asked.

Lola's storyline is getting complicated, but I think her new suitor may not want children because he may be gay. The good news is he is willing to marry her to cover up her pregnancy. I hope he doesn't turn on her later on in the story.

I don't know how I feel about the new marriage between Bash and Kenna. Kenna will learn to respect Bash but she looks like she may fall for him in the end. I don't know what Bash will do in the castle without driving insane. He knows he's practically in Mary's pocket, but Francis could have something to do with it when it comes down to how often he notices their paths crossing.

I'm glad Mary is finally taking control of everything no matter what the cost. She knows she's expendable while she is in France, but she is looking out for her own country at last! Francis looked taken aback finding out she was ready to use anything, even their kingdom in France, to save her people.

Texas bound!

Going on another girlfriends trip, but this one will be for five days!

My friend and I need a break (her more than me considering I did Las Vegas in mid February), and so we're headed to Texas. She got tickets to see this British band called The xx, and they'll be playing their last show in West Texas. They've been doing a string of underground shows across the states so this should be interesting.

I also have family in Texas, so I'm seeing my cousins in Austin for the first half of my trip! I shall let you all know how it goes and hopefully my pictures will connect with my laptop this time around.

I won't be around next week to review the Being Human series finale (yes, this is ALL I genuinely think about) or the Game of Thrones season premiere. I will be excited to catch it though once i return next Wednesday.
