Reign 2.20 Fugitive
Conde is fleeing for his life and I am still confused with what happened last week. Mary is still acting a bit of an airhead throwing out all her resources to protect Conde as much as possible. At the end of the day, he's Elizabeth's husband BUT then again he's not since the house and proxy was burned down along with the evidence. This couldn't be more complicated.
It looks like Mary is trying her hardest to protect him, but Francis is using up all of his resources to try and protect what she wants. It really is costing him everything and weakening his kingdom.
Narcisse looks like he's dividing his loyalty between Lola and Catherine now. I think he's going to choose Lola if he follows his heart, but logically he will please Catherine for the sake of politics. I'm seeing the perks of being at court for him, but he's not going to have much to rely on since all he does is blackmail and act out of his own personal interest (which is still hard to tell).
Greer and Leith are going down the same road they always see themselves on. I don't know why Leith is surprised. He always sticks his neck out for her and works in the palace babysitting Claude. Greer does have a right to stick up for herself and her independence on her own income. If she marries suddenly, it will mean she needs to give up her current lifestyle as a Madame and settle down. I applaud her for that, but she can't whine about wanting to be happy when Leith offered her all of that.
Kenna chose soldier boy and Sebastian is off on the sidelines now? Not that I don't have faith in this storyline but Kenna is the character who has to sleep her way to the top. She's been painted as the woman who gets what she wants by using her sexuality. Don't like this storyline for a woman, especially one who can be respected for doing other respectable things.

Arrow 3.21 Al Sah-Him
Arrow 3.21 Al Sah-Him
I knew that couldn't have been John Diggle in the beginning! Oliver's mind is getting sharper under his new training, but I don't know if the league be his new commitment. Crazy herbs, it's always the herbs that produce hallucinations!
Side note on Laurel's new super power. That was a pretty wicked black canary screech she had there. I didn't know that could be a super power, but it makes sense to have a collar with a deafening squawk (hence the name black canary).
Malcolm telling Thea, "What did you think he would be doing while joining the League of Assassins?" I was waiting for a response like braiding hair :P Thea is a fighter though, definitely knows what it's like to fight under somebody else's control. It's also useful that she's still well trained and can operate a bow and arrow well! She nearly saved everybody because she drew Oliver's blood first. I wonder if he will go after her int he future. It looks like she may be his weakness in this.
It was a big mistake for Oliver to take Lyla. He wanted Nyssa on the island, but now Ra's Al Ghul just made the worst arrangement ever. An arranged marriage between Nyssa and Oliver is pretty bizarre. I don't understand it, but I guess it will preserve the legacy and intertwine Nyssa's hand in producing a future heir to the League. The episode was quite slow for me this evening.

The Flash 1.20 The Trap
The Flash 1.20 The Trap
I'm liking the whole Gideon software program created by Barry Allen. This means Barry must've travelled through time more than once. Now that there's been a glimpse into the future, we know Iris winds up with Barry as long as everything is left well enough alone. Cisco made a good point about seeing the new uniform as a small insight of whether or not they were meant to see the newspaper article and then altering because of the photograph.
Now that the secret on Wells being the reverse flash is out, I wonder how they'll carry on this way. I has my suspicions on Dr. Wells eventually using the locked up meta-humans (in this case, the shapeshifter) as a decoy. I guess with a few episodes left in the season, he would had to do it soon.
Joe turning down Eddie's request to marry Iris was very courageous on his part. Eddie saying he didn't "need his permission," was a jerk thing to say. I don't agree with that at all; I'm a traditional girl where I believe the parents should be asked first on your intentions of spending the rest of your life with essentially the whole family. I think it's more honourable that way. This is just my personal opinion, but anything around that I find distasteful (like with Eddie's response). It's sad, I really liked his character after he warmed up to Barry and showed he wasn't a bad guy.
Sad that the trap set up for Wells didn't work. He had to put up hidden cameras since he's travelled back through time before. Not a fan that he actually is far ahead of the everything against the rest of the team. I'm sure they can outsmart him somehow, but I don't want this to end with Barry's dad left in jail and Barry seeking revenge for his mother's death.
Eddie's been kidnapped and this is an example of him being an interference. Now that more people are involved with the secret, the more vulnerable everybody is. Not feeling this at all.

The Night Shift 2.10 Hold On
The Night Shift 2.10 Hold On
I stopped breathing the moment that metal beam fell on top of T.C. =O He takes a lot of risk and really does live on the edge. It's bothersome but as it was mentioned previously in the last episode, she told Gwen she wouldn't change him. She fell in love with him for who he is and changing him would make him a different person. I really do agree with this statement because I feel partners should only change themselves consciously on their own. This means they'd only better themselves to be a better person.
That car accident was insane! I actually believed Scott may have been intoxicated, only because he ran the red stop sign with the explanation he was late for his night shift as on-call surgeon. His guilt pretty much ran his adrenaline the entire shift and made himself responsible for the boy in the other car. I also don't think it was a good idea he involved himself more than he did with the actual surgery. It rubbed salt into the wounds, didn't help either party.
I sympathize for Scott, but the hospital, particularly T.C. and Jordan, stuck their neck out for him by "speeding up" his test results. If anything, they put so much faith in him to have him finish up the surgery. I'm glad Jordan still chooses T.C. at the end of the day, but I want to move forward with their relationship without thinking about every little detail holding them behind.

The Following 3.10, Bates Motel 3.08
The Following 3.10 Evermore
I don't think Joe Carroll is dead! We saw him solemnly go on the table by quoting 'The Raven,' but we don't see the person who injected him. He silently went into the next room but we don't get a focus on his facial features. I know Joe's memory still lives on in Ryan's subconscious, but I think there's more to Joe's legacy then what's left with Ryan's alcoholic tendencies. Maybe I'm not ready to let Joe Carroll go since he was a superb villain. I'm sure a lot of viewers probably feel the same way.
Now Gwen is struggling big time here, but she's given Ryan more than enough chances. She just doesn't understand what he's experienced only because he hasn't let her in. Ryan's just got to stay away from the alcohol now.
Another thing I noticed about Ryan was the irony that he saved Joe from everything else for the lethal injection. It was supposed to be his send-off to preserve him until he meets the ending Ryan wants for him. I know part of him in that prison hostage situation made him succumb to survival instincts. It was the part of him that Joe said was always inside him. This was also what Joe wants; once Joe dies, Ryan gets reborn again. I still don't believe Joe is dead because I'm still in denial.
Bates Motel 3.08 The Pit
I'm stunned that Bob Paris and his thugs beat the living daylights out of therapist James. All for the USB key and information on Norma. I tip my hat off to him for trying to help Norma by speaking to Norman. Unfortunately, that got him into trouble and leaked Norma's secret out (the struggles of survival).
Dylan's the absolute greatest to Emma. In all of this, he still wants to do something good and save her life. He's surrounded by so much confusion and anger, but she's the one good thing in his life that crossed paths with him.
Romero is throwing himself out on a limb for Norma. He needs to take a step back in case this goes haywire. The family dinner was nice, but Norman's subconscious is intensifying. I have no idea if he will go after Caleb or Romero first. I'm thinking Caleb because of the past. Romero may be next if he doesn't distance himself from Norma.
I can't believe that ending! I'm not sure if it's Bradley or if he's seeing things. The dog isn't real so this may be his imagination catching up with him.

Once Upon a Time 4.20 Lily
Once Upon a Time 4.20 Lily
I didn't think Regina and Emma were able to get from Storybrooke to Massachusetts and then New York in one day. It seems that magic is always on their side haha.
I knew Lily had to be alive, but it looks like the wizard is routing for Lily in this. He saw the author abused his power and changed stories by ruining other people's lives. He may have wanted Lily to be the saviour all along? He knew she was an innocent once he banished her, but despite her bad luck in the "real world," she's found a way to be protected in all this. Makes sense she wants vengeance but I think she's the key to changing everything. She'll either return to Storybrooke wanting to tear apart Rumplestilskin, or peace with her mother.
Zelena is pregnant and this throws out a huge curveball. Maybe they'll bring Zelena back to Storybrooke with them? Or maybe Regina takes Roland with her instead? Separating Robin from Roland will ruin everything, so I hope this doesn't happen.

OneRepublic's Native Canada Tour (with Lights) at the Air Canada Centre
How do you compare a OneRepublic concert to another? You can't. Quite possibly compare it to every other concert in existence!
I know it's very cliche to say, but OneRepublic has always been a first to create such a genre of this kind. I had this discussion with my friend last night at the concert how OneRepublic is the first big band to incorporate classical strings (the cello and violin) into a pop sound. It's similar to how Coldplay was one of the first to include piano into a rock sound (after the Beatles of course).
A band or artist needs to know how to recreate their performance if they want to keep their fans going. Their setlist was the same since it's the same album haha, but the changes they incorporated were insane! That's what I love about going to every single OneRepublic show played in Toronto! They're always reinventing and inspiring every time.
I saw them last June, but so much has changed from visual effects to the new sound added to their performances. Once again, I cannot explain how exciting they are live. You just have to go.
I'm embarrassed to say I'm unfamiliar with Lights' music other than what's on the radio now and one song from my early university days. She did have an appropriate opening set for OneRepublic. I was also surprised the band came on stage 8:43pm (usually it would be on a half or quarter of the clock) but I'm not complaining since they put on a great show! An all around great evening, I even have a bruise on my quad to prove it! The two seats on my left wound up vacant since those folks never showed. I had floor seats, and throughout the dancing, the row behind pushed forward excitedly at one point during the later half of the concert. The fold over chair caught me on an angle and fell on my leg. On my way out of the ACC into Union, we kept singing, "If I *bruise* myself tonight, it'll be at a OneRepublic concert but by your side!" =)
setlist:
Don't Look Down
Light It Up
Secrets
All the Right Moves
What You Wanted
Stop and Stare
Something I Need
Apologize
Stay With Me (Sam Smith cover)
Budapest (George Ezra cover)
Preacher
Good Life
Counting Stars
Can't Stop
Au Revoir

Arrow 3.20, Reign 2.19
Arrow 3.20 The Fallen
We're bringing people back from the dead now?! Why couldn't this show just do that with Sara Lance =/ Anyway I'm surprised Thea was able to remember everything properly after returning back. If she's got confusion in her, she also isn't supposed to be the same coming out of this. I'm hoping maybe she'll go back for Oliver or something bold to show she would fight for her brother just as much he has for her.
I am so glad Felicity and Oliver admitted their feelings at last! I didn't think it would happen so soon, but this look played out to be the "last goodbye" judging by how she couldn't let go of him. Even in the last second of trying to get him to return to Starling City, she wouldn't stop fighting for him. I think he's supposed to be with her, but he doesn't want to ruin what she has with Ray at the moment. By the way, I don't know what will happen between them since Oliver is "gone".
I want Black Canary to come out bolder this time around. She should go back and bring Oliver home with Diggle. Not sure how I feel about everything else, but Maseo looks like the closest person that would actually help aid in this. Deep down inside, Diggle was able to reach out to his past and make him see if what he's doing is worth it.
Reign 2.19 Abandoned
Mary keeps whining over Conde and it's gotten boring. I think she's obsessed with not being with him, but she has trouble letting go. She's pulling the plug for the sake of politics and claims she's meant to follow her heart. One thing I dislike the most about medieval women is the lack of empowerment when there was a time to be in such a place of power.
Kenna looks like she's after this new soldier boy. Sebastian and her seem to have ended abruptly, so it looks like a complicated subject for now.
Not sure how I feel about Narcisse advancing himself with Catherine. He's become a key player at court, especially by her side with all kinds of resourceful information. I wonder if Lola will ever come back to entertain the idea of being with him (it may be a nice change).
It looks like Conde got married in secret, but doesn't he need to take out Francis in order to be king? He's a bloodline, I understand that much. If he marries English Queen Elizabeth, does this also mean he needs to challenge his place on the throne as a king versus Francis? I know he automatically becomes King of England, it's just claiming France as his country as well means another fight, possibly a war.

The Flash 1.19 Who Is Harrison Wells?
The Flash 1.19 Who Is Harrison Wells?
Hooray more crossovers with Arrow! Cisco being a major fan over black canary was a fun moment in the episode! Laurel didn't do much (which was ok with me) since it was Joe's investigation that took the lead in Starling City. Glad they dug up and found the missing body. This means they have an actual body representing the real Harrison Wells.
That shapeshifter was pretty trippy! He started small with robberies but is only now under the police department's radar. Also, I saw Dr. Wells was interested in his talent at the end, it makes you think what he wants to do with all the meta-humans he's locking up. I understand they catch the bad ones who don't live amongst society in peace. Since we know he's also a bad man (and possibly a shapeshifter since he took the original Harrison's form?) maybe he's creating an army of bad meta-humans. Just a theory.
Eddie is cracking under pressure now. It doesn't look like he can keep a secret anymore, which majorly sucks. Involving him may not have been a good idea after all. Joe is doing his best to keep his nosey (let's face it) daughter Iris out of this, but Eddie may be the weakest one in this. Iris is even using her journalist nature on Caitlin. Not cool! Bringing up her Ronnie the man-on-fire as an ex-employee at S.T.A.R. labs was overstepping some boundaries. She just pulls teeth and pines into uncomfortable situations. She's looking for answers but taking advantage of Barry's realm of friends. I'm liking Iris less because she isn't her own person anymore and thrives for a story.

The Night Shift 2.09 Aftermath
The Night Shift 2.09 Aftermath
That was super badass of Krista and Jordan to save that patient while driving to the hospital. This really shows the ladies can make a difference and improvise when they're on the move; real doctors and rockstar women right here!
It's good T.C. admitted his mistake with his patient. He knows he pre-judged based on appearance, but lucky he found the tumour in the MRI. He also explained to the mom what the options can be that will help save her. He always has the good intentions.
I'm glad Drew and Rick were able to patch up their past. It's nice to know they've reached a middle ground of peace as well. I"m glad Kenny called our Drew on being a gay doctor. As much as Drew tries to be private, he told him why are you hiding anymore? He shouldn't be ashamed anymore about being a gay doctor who served his country, just like how Kenny is a black, male nurse who identifies with minority. This is very important to hear, especially in today's day and age.
Nothing else to say except T.C. giving up the Harley Davidson shows he's becoming more responsible and no longer living on the edge. He's still got his spontaneity, but he's thinking about his future with Jordan and his baby =)

Nothing else to say except T.C. giving up the Harley Davidson shows he's becoming more responsible and no longer living on the edge. He's still got his spontaneity, but he's thinking about his future with Jordan and his baby =)
The Following 3.09, Bates Motel 3.07
The Following 3.09 Kill The Messenger
I don't think killing Joe Carroll will solve any problems. The show originated with him so replacing him with another villain won't have the same spark from first season. The substitute villain, whether it be Mark or Theo, aren't strong enough as killers. They follow int he footsteps of their mentors, they don't give orders for their own revenge. Looks like Joe will fight back in the next episode now that he pocketed sunglasses and made them into a tool he needs.
I can't believe they weren't able to find the laptop! I wanted Tom to get caught with it at last, but they just dropped the topic and went after leads to Theo =/ Mike and Max are finding everything they can to help Ryan with his situation. Getting his bank frozen and car tagged under theft is huge though. It slows him down but just motivates him to go after Theo. I think this means they're closing in on Theo and he has very little resources left.
Gwen is pregnant! So maybe she was an innocent all along? I hope she sticks around now that Claire and Joey have moved out of the storyline.
Bates Motel 3.07 The Last Supper
I'm glad the James the professor/therapist intervened! Norman has different fantasies surrounding his relationship with Norma (this was obvious from the beginning) but he's now aggressive with the matter. I'm happy Dylan brought up his problem to Norma while she was gone for the night. He dressed up and pretended he was her for the sake of missing her entirely.
They both act so manic and it's unusual how the resolve is always not to seek further help. James coming in for a house call is the only professional council Norman's ever had. The fact it turned sour so fast shows Norman's escalating his behaviour to a new level. I think he's reached into his subconscious and can't turn back.
It's a good thing Emma can get protected by Dylan in all of this. Alex and James protect Norma, who looks out for Norman. Caleb protects Dylan, who is now watching out for Emma. It looks like there's some division happening, but Norman needs to be away from them all.
What was up with that ending?! I wonder if it's a dream or if it's really happening =S Norman's over the edge, it doesn't look like he can get any saving now.

Once Upon a Time 4.19 Sympathy for the De Vil
Once Upon a Time 4.19 Sympathy for the De Vil
This is actually a great twist on Cruella's life growing up. She became a villain partially because of the author. He enhanced her role as a villain and even if she did get a "happy ending," it would be dark.
Ursuala's happy ending was to get her voice back and return to the sea with her father. Maleficent's happy ending lies with getting her daughter back. Regina's happy ending is finding love again with Robin Hood. Rumplestilskin's happiness is getting Belle back BUT he also wants to hold on to his dark magic.
Cruella's happy ending is still an angry one. The author is involved with her, but she wants nothing to do with him. I think Cruella, Peter Pan and Rumplestilskin are the only villains who can't rewrite their paths. All three are over consumed with power, which is why the author left well enough alone.
I wonder if what he meant by everything ending with the saviour really meant no more Emma. At one point, being the saviour may not be good enough. She has a lot burdening her, I hope this means Lily will come back and be a companion to her.

Reign 2.18 Reversal of Fortune
Reign 2.18 Reversal of Fortune
Are Conde and Mary no more now? She looks really wishy-washy with her decision now. Francis escaped a close call there, but he granted Mary "permission" to live out what she wants. The issue at hand is that she's half committing both to her marriage and her love affair. It doesn't work that way, especially when your a queen with minimal power at the moment.
I found it interesting to have the episode start and end with Conde's situation with Mary at complete extremes. Without a doubt he's given up more for her. She needs to either back out completely and let him go or make a concrete decision on what to do. It looks like both nations are suffering, and it's only getting worst now with French troops heading over to Scotland.
Leith is so optimistic with Greer, it's actually very comforting. I don't get Claude's spoiled attitude. I know Leith is her newly appointed chaperone, but this may get quite boring as well. No one likes to be a babysitter to royalty, might as well be a person in waiting. Greer looks headstrong with her new found business. It was an accident that turned into something profitable and useful to her survival. She's kind of the only smart lady in all of this, finally doing something for herself.
Conde better make up his mind soon. He can't keep waiting on Mary, he's got to make decisions for himself is she's not willing to protect him.

Arrow 3.19 Broken Arrow
Arrow 3.19 Broken Arrow
Roy is experiencing a really tough jail life. It's nothing the rest of the team wouldn't do to stick their neck out for Oliver, but Detective Lance is taking things to the next level. He's actually going out of his way to make sure Oliver pays for everything. It seems to be the same story with every comic book hero. You're either loved or hated even though you're trying to do something for the greater good. As much as the protagonist sees the bigger picture to save people, there will always be the criticism of those who won't see eye-to-eye.
When Felicity got captured, I actually thought Oliver was going to get into Ray's "Atom" suit when he suggested he needed his instinct. It's good he helped from afar, but I see Oliver reaching a breaking point with regards to choosing lead the League of Assassins. This also gets me thinking with Roy faking his death in jail, they mentioned that's the end of the Arrow as far as Starling City is concerned. With that in mind, does this make it easier for Oliver to go dark side and join the league after all? He has every right to be convinced at the very end of the episode with the state of Thea. I wonder if Malcolm Merlyn will jump in and open up a can of kendo whoop ass on Ra's al Ghul (I'm actually praying for it, John Barrowman is awesome).
Cisco cameo! First, it's good Cisco identified that the metahuman they caught wasn't in Central City when the particle accelerator explosion happened. This means there are more people outside the city that may have been affected from the accident. Second, I'm glad with even yesterday's episode that there would be some more Arrow-Flash crossovers. Maybe this will hint from here on out that we'll get more crossovers for the remainder of the season for both shows!

The Flash 1.18 All Star Team Up
The Flash 1.18 All Star Team Up
I like the Arrow-Flash crossovers! These episodes are awesome and spice up everything in this season. Ray and Felicity are such a nerd couple, but they match well. I like that Barry is super protective of Felicity. He hasn't analyzed yet what's going on with Dr. Wells, but he's getting close to the source. Ray nerding out with Cisco and the team is also awesome! They really do have persona matches in both shows.
Iris is being too much of a journalist in all aspects of her life. When you start being way too investigative with your relationship life, it takes a turn in your behaviour. Her all around interaction with her dad, Eddie and Barry are paranoia. She overthinks way too much and is letting her journal articles interfere with her social life.
I'm so happy Emily Kinney gets a spot on the show! I've missed her since her departure as Beth on The Walking Dead. She genuinely loved being on that show with her cast-family and it's good to see her in a villain role this time around.
I'm confused with what's going on with Cisco. How has he been able to see a flashback that didn't actually happen? With the time travel, he wasn't supposed to be live to reveal about Dr. Wells in that part of reality. I was wondering if Cisco was going to find out if he's the reverse-flash before Caitlin. I'm glad Barry and Joe told Caitlin or else this would've been overwhelming for Barry to carry on his own.
This entire episode centred around killer robot bees scare me because one of the many things I am allergic too are bees =/

The Following 3.08, Bates Motel 3.06
The Following 3.08 Flesh & Blood
Another episode where I don't trust Gwen. Bringing your boss to
Ryan's apartment is a big faux pas. If she was so concerned with him making it
to the dinner, she would've tried every way to call and contact him while on
the field. He has every right to feel bombarded by people acting like fan boys
and opinions they should keep to themselves. If you decide to show up and shove
your ideas down an FBI's throat, you're bound to get shut out (especially when
it's Kevin Bacon).
Mike needs to stick with Ryan at all times. In that wired house
explosion, Ryan was the one who bounced up and threw his body on to Mike and
into the bathtub. Mike's more reckless/careless if Max or Ryan are with with
him.
I'm glad Mendez was on board to let the team do their own
investigation. After finding the children in the home, she gave up too easily.
She thinks the job is getting too much for her, but Ryan is still fighting back
at all costs.
I'm surprised nobody thought Joe Caroll would've escaped sooner.
He was sentenced to the death penalty and had people hiding everywhere! This
makes me wonder if the finale will end with him again. The show has steered
away from the Edgar Allan Poe genre, so imagine it would somehow come back to
it with Joe on the loose.
Bates Motel 3.06 Norma Louise
Norma is the definition of crazy. She's absolutely nuts and I feel
we're finally seeing her behaviour without coddling Norman (or anyone else for
that matter).
Dylan is building another healthy relationship, this time with
Emma. She's always seeking Norma's approval and Norman's attention. It's about
time somebody sees her as a person and not a walking health hazard. When he
helped her clear her lungs, that shows he really did appreciate her being
around this whole night for Norman's sake.
I didn't think Norma would actually return and speak to Caleb. It
looks like they've mended things for the time being, but I don't know if this
will turn out healthy.
Sheriff Romero is awesome and may just be my favourite character in this show. He came out of his gun shot wounds, popped out of his hospital bed and rammed his IV into the car (while still being hooked up to it!) It looks like he's out for blood and is sick and tired of all the corruption happening in his town. White Pine Bay is far from getting all the dirty laundry out of there, but Romero looks like he won't stand for it.

The Night Shift 2.08 Parenthood
The Night Shift 2.08 Parenthood
I've got to say, the whole team has come together in a new light in welcoming Ragosa to be a real part of the team. Organizing the party for his daughter meant a lot to him, but it makes you wonder why his ex-wife has so much resentment against him. She must've had extravagant spending habits when he had his previous salary but I'm not sure why everything falls on to his shoulders when he gets to see his daughter at a minimum.
The shooting at the ceremony really makes you think about the trauma these families go through when losing a piece of them overseas. They didn't get into the situation as much, but they did show enough to show the cost of one person's actions on the innocent. Drew has a lot of friends he served with, but I really like how they're all accepting of his sexuality. I hear that in ANY work environment, so many people are subjected to hate because of their sexual orientation. Finally here's a show that's proud of having same-sex partners and awareness surrounding their everyday struggles (The Flash mildly does the same thing too with the head of police department being a gay, married man).
I wonder if T.C.'s sister-in-law is making a reappearance in the show. She sort of just disappeared, but I can't say she brought anything interesting to the table either. She brought out all kinds of baggage with her addiction problems, and Jordan is close to sainthood because of how well she treated her and downplayed her behaviour.
Wrong move on Paul for taking the medication. I understand he wanted to help the little boy, but Kenny even said all he had to do was ask. Kenny got a promotion and could've lost his job on the spot if anybody thought there was suspicious activity going on. Kenny just mended what's going on with Krista, now he's got awkwardness with Paul.
Speaking of Krista, I am glad she is clear of cancer traces in her body. Her and Drew as BFFs are a good combination in this =)

Once Upon a Time 4.18 Heart of Gold
Once Upon a Time 4.18 Heart of Gold
A Robin Hood episode! I was curious to know if they'd actually bring back and mention what happened to him since leaving Storybrooke. The same goes for Zelena, they finally said what happened to her after her remains disappeared in the jail cell.
Zelena's been disguising herself as Marian this whole time, and now it's all coming together. This means Robin can find happiness back in Storybrooke with his son and Regina again. If Robin finds out, I wonder how well he'll survive in New York. Rumplestilskin seems to know what's going on, but as usual he will only help if he gets something in return.
I imagine this isn't easy for Regina, but she's definitely going to find a way to get her happiness. Emma is going all stone cold, proving she can go darkside after everything she's gone through. She appears more haggard and depressed and harps on "being lied to" every five minutes. She grew up with a tough upbringing, but I think she needs to look at the bigger picture before she's no longer "the saviour" of the town.
Somehow, I'm hoping Robin can come back to Storybrooke undetected, but they'll probably need help from the author in this. I was totally wrong by the way, the author isn't adult Henry after all. He's just a random one with a magic quill. He just goes rogue as much as possible haha

X Company 1.08 Into the Fire
X Company 1.08 Into the Fire
RENE IS ALIVE, WELL AND LIVING IN AN UNDERGROUND JAIL CELL! This is the best news ever to receive at the end of a finale.
I admire how Neil and Tom delivered what was going on in the concentration camps through a poem. Finally the truth comes out, as horrifying it is. A lot of people turned a blind and and looked the other way. Others like Neil and Tom wanted to do something about it. I'm worried they won't be able to save Tom at the end of the episode! Now that Rene is coming back into the picture, this could be the swap to come?
My theory on the blue wash dream was true the entire time! Alfred eventually got captured, which was the number one fear of the group. Protocol was to make sure he doesn't get taken alive, but Aurora just couldn't do it. I wonder what Duncan's reaction will be (especially since season 2 is official!) knowing one team member got shot, the other is captured and another is hiding underground.
I don't think Alfred will speak though. He's pretty solid and now that Franz is vulnerable, Alfred won't crack. He's pretty familiar with situations where patience is tested to call out bluffs. He's totally going to succeed in this. If not, I hope underground Rene will find his way to him and come to the rescue!
Franz had the biggest secret to cover up this entire time. His wife couldn't believe he had a part in what really happens to children (and families for that matter) even though it was just covering up the truth. It's no better than the people who actually commit the act. I am remorseful for the situation with his son, but he put it upon himself to take matters into his own hands. How far is too far? When do people know how to stop? All of these questions surround the Holocaust, but it was a different time where people had feared instilled no matter what side they wanted to be on.
Really looking forward to next season!

The Night Shift 2.07, The Following 3.07, Bates Motel 3.05
The Night Shift 2.07 Best Laid Plans
T.C. is so excited to be a father! I like this new jump in his step, it shows him and Jordan really working together. It also takes away from his addict sister-in-law's behaviour as of lately.
Ragosa and Topher were on point with their father instincts tonight. I like how they're trying to find ways to protect their daughters and want to outsmart them, it really showed a joking side to everything in this episode.
Kenny looks like he won't be good with Krista for a long time. I'm sad the whole group isn't getting along the way they should, it's much better when staff have a fun environment.
Paul got so much support from Scott tonight! Paul's dad dropping in the way he did was so overbearing and suffocating. Paul definitely needed Scott to help stand up for his goals and happiness. Paul looked really hurt from the simplest of rejections from his dad, and it was the most basic thing anybody would want; TIME. He wanted to spend quality time with his dad, nothing else.
I especially enjoyed T.C. and Drew giving their patient a second chance in getting his life back together and starting over.
The Following 3.07 The Hunt
Max is letting her guard down too much. She's way too careless with her injury and keeps throwing herself out into the field (possibly to avoid Mike and Tom?) I'd rather see her with Mike for the sake of stability.
Ryan's really unwell with all the Joe imagery going on. If Joe actually gets the death penalty, will Ryan's mind be at ease or worsen? I don't think he'll improve his condition if he's used to shutting everybody out and committing to the job.
Michael Ealy's acting is on another level! He bounces in and out of his cover life and murderous secret like no other, really impressed he's the new villain in the show! I have nothing bad to say about Theo as the new addition. I also want Mark to come back. Him and Theo are much better than this Duncan guy. Manny Montana's cameo was much appreciated! It fuelled my Graceland nostalgia even with minimal Tom scenes.
Bates Motel 3.05 The Deal
Norma's behaviour really doesn't make sense. She's wayward and is never consistent with what she wants. She may put Norman's needs ahead of hers, but she doesn't use logic to do anything right.
The Norman-Dylan fight was bound to happen. Norman is attached to his mom and doesn't like to see anybody get close to her. It almost looks like he's unnaturally obsessed with her because she's always suppressing his psychotic illness. I wonder if this is a taste of how the actual psycho comes about. Once he gets his mother taken away, his subconscious takes over his entire state of mind.
Romero is so supportive that Sheriff Badass should be his name. Walking in with Norma to declare she has the USB key hidden away safely is kind of ballsy. Norma was insane for making all sorts of demands, but it's either going to go well or south if she didn't make claims clear.

Kenny looks like he won't be good with Krista for a long time. I'm sad the whole group isn't getting along the way they should, it's much better when staff have a fun environment.
Paul got so much support from Scott tonight! Paul's dad dropping in the way he did was so overbearing and suffocating. Paul definitely needed Scott to help stand up for his goals and happiness. Paul looked really hurt from the simplest of rejections from his dad, and it was the most basic thing anybody would want; TIME. He wanted to spend quality time with his dad, nothing else.
I especially enjoyed T.C. and Drew giving their patient a second chance in getting his life back together and starting over.
The Following 3.07 The Hunt
Max is letting her guard down too much. She's way too careless with her injury and keeps throwing herself out into the field (possibly to avoid Mike and Tom?) I'd rather see her with Mike for the sake of stability.
Ryan's really unwell with all the Joe imagery going on. If Joe actually gets the death penalty, will Ryan's mind be at ease or worsen? I don't think he'll improve his condition if he's used to shutting everybody out and committing to the job.
Michael Ealy's acting is on another level! He bounces in and out of his cover life and murderous secret like no other, really impressed he's the new villain in the show! I have nothing bad to say about Theo as the new addition. I also want Mark to come back. Him and Theo are much better than this Duncan guy. Manny Montana's cameo was much appreciated! It fuelled my Graceland nostalgia even with minimal Tom scenes.
Bates Motel 3.05 The Deal
Norma's behaviour really doesn't make sense. She's wayward and is never consistent with what she wants. She may put Norman's needs ahead of hers, but she doesn't use logic to do anything right.
The Norman-Dylan fight was bound to happen. Norman is attached to his mom and doesn't like to see anybody get close to her. It almost looks like he's unnaturally obsessed with her because she's always suppressing his psychotic illness. I wonder if this is a taste of how the actual psycho comes about. Once he gets his mother taken away, his subconscious takes over his entire state of mind.
Romero is so supportive that Sheriff Badass should be his name. Walking in with Norma to declare she has the USB key hidden away safely is kind of ballsy. Norma was insane for making all sorts of demands, but it's either going to go well or south if she didn't make claims clear.

Arrow 3.18 Public Enemy
Arrow 3.18 Public Enemy
It's good Oliver and Ray finally came to an understanding for Felicity. I really want them to get along for the sake of character longevity in the storyline. I hope Ray's invention works after all with helping to cure disease and health risks of the world. It looks like he's done the right tests to see if it could enter his bloodstream properly. Let's hope he can do big things now that he's in a good place with Felicity.
Roy and Thea are back together and I approve of it so much! I'm not sure if it's a one time thing, but Roy and Thea are stable when they have each other's backs.
Captain Lance is taking things way too far with persecuting Oliver Queen and throwing him to the wolves. I see he's hurt about Sarah but channelling it aggressively. I think this may be his cry for help for Laurel to step in. They're doing the push-and-pull relationship where nobody can win. Now that Ra's al Ghul kidknapped Lance, I wonder what's going to happen next. He really isn't giving up on Oliver becoming the next leader of League of Assassins. I want this story to be over and done with. I wouldn't mind Nyssa taking over the League, then again I quite like her in Starling City =)

There's so much conflict within the team! It's a lot of stress and testosterone between all the males at the moment. Most of the time, Aurora and Alfred have each other to calm down. The rest of the team seem to battle each other because they're getting under each other's skin. Being out on the field and in the environment, we've already seen the type of decision making that goes on.
I hope eliminating the spies means there are less loose ends left in public. They're closing in on who knows what, but I think they can only trace things back to the original sources. It was difficult for Aurora to catch her source in a lie! She couldn't have done it without Alfred's discreet snooping. Tough call, but it was well worth it to protect their cover. I wonder what Alfred found in those pictures. I noticed it was a different watch, but he was comparing black and white photographs, one of which was fuzzy and dark. Not sure what this will mean, especially since I've been routing for Rene to make a comeback!
I'm looking forward to the finale to see how this will season will close up next week. It really is an excellent program showcasing Canadian history.
