Once Upon a Time 4.15 Enter the Dragon
I'm glad with this change in Maleficent's backstory! Having her pregnant right before Regina casted the curse on the Enchanted Forest is an excellent opener to her reasons of anger. Snow looks vengeful but protective of her family for the time being. Glad the writers were creative with this storyline! I thought that at first Snow/Mary-Margaret and David committed bad magic to save the kingdom, but baby-for-baby makes more sense. It will be interesting to see what Maleficent wants to do in Storybrooke, especially since she's wedged between the heroes and villains.
Colin O'Donoghue is a great actor! He played Rumplestilskin's character very well in his own skin. It's interesting Rumplestilskin decided on THAT character to impersonate just to get close to Belle and the dagger. I wonder if he will do it again, but that will mean Killian will take a step back in being present around Storybrooke.
The Walking Dead 5.14 Spend
I can't get over what Glenn and Rick are going through, so that's what my entire review will center upon.
Glenn witnessed the true colours of the cowards that fight for Alexandria. All selfish and leave their own behind. This is what separates themselves from Rick's group. There's an actual bond, real relationships formed, between the group. They always stand up for each other by any means necessary. They're also logical, not like the folks in Alexandria. As much as congresswoman wants a community built on trust, it's not happening with all these holes found within the characters.
Now to Rick's surprise visit from creepy husband Paul. You don't bring up somebody's dead wife with alcohol in hand, just a big NO! After Rick let him out and started fiddling with his wedding ring =( Of course he's hurt by Lori's death, but he ain't broken! Rick had to fight to get to where he is. If not for himself, for Carl, Judith and the sake of the group's survival. Without a doubt, he's devoted. Carol finding out Paul is abusing his wife and son is huge game changer. This will be the start of something big if Rick decides to take control of Alexandria.
Two episodes left and I can only imagine more action to come! Sad Noah got killed off this soon, but I saw his leg as a setback from moving quickly with the rest of the group. I wonder if Glenn will bring up the fighter's cowardice to Rick (I'm sure he will).

X Company 1.04 Sixes & Sevens
X Company 1.04 Sixes & Sevens
Now I never knew transferring human packages to and from the border was part of the job. I guess it makes sense when people smuggle folks in and out of danger? A musician is a good disguise, but she's likely to get investigated for being an entertainer if she expresses a interest in politics.
Aurora finally warmed up to Alfred! I think it's sweet they exchanged their hidden talents. I want something to happen between the two, Aurora deserves to move on and be happy with her life. I think this is the stepping stone for them to be something other than colleagues in the field. I'm optimistic with these two =)
Imagining what Harry went through (while the rest were together) was terrible. Tending to a pregnant woman injured in a bombing showed real heroism as an individual. I was surprised to see the humanity in the soldiers in the end who gave him a ride to the monastery. Very emotional and heart-wrenching. This is just one of many families that were torn apart by this war, and one undercover spy made all the difference in this.
I can't believe there's a spy in the camp! Sinclair has to watch out since his information is going to fall into the wrong hands. I'm still going with my idea of Alfred's jail cell scene, the blue wash imagery and Aurora's face is all presently happening. What if Duncan Sinclair's mission slip up and get Alfred captured? I keep going with this idea hoping it's correct. If it's Alfred's past, it doesn't make sense to have Aurora's face constantly in fading in and out the blue wash. I am fully running with my theory!!

Reign 2.16 Tasting Revenge
LEITH! I've never been so happy to see him. He makes everything better (no seriously) and I cheer for his character's happiness every time. If her husband Castleroy is in jail, she can finally move forward with Leith! By the way, I hope they become solid this time around. Now that he's in the navy and has a reputation of his own, he can be in her life again.
I have a good feeling about Conde this time around. Even though he took up the offer to court Elizabeth, I think he's trying to protect Mary. He seems to be the only stable person Mary's had in a very long time.
I wonder if Antoine will come back the next episode now that he's gone back with his wife. He accomplished to ruin Kenna and Bash so I wonder if that will continue on.
in the next episode that he's made a bold decision for himself.
Hoping there will be more Conde in the next episode that he's made a bold decision for himself.

The Night Shift 2.03 Eyes Look Your Last
The Night Shift 2.03 Eyes Look Your Last
I had to separate this post from my Bates Motel and The Following entry considering those two episodes were much darker than I anticipated this evening.
It's a good thing Jordan is comfortable with introducing T.C. to her mom again. I just hope she doesn't get jealous of her ex-husband Scott. He deserves to move on as well. If they have a problem working together, I think Scott should move elsewhere if it comes down to being an issue. Joey wasn't in this evening's episode, but he looks like a good substitute doctor for Scott's place in case he gets written off.
Anyway, on to the drama of the storyline tonight. I only knew about the Romeo and Juliet law from the fourth installment of Transformers haha! It was really sad to see T.C. couldn't help the security guard father with his struggle to adapt back into his life at home. His daughter seemed angry but she looked like she really cared for her dad underneath the health scare. It's very rare for T.C. to find people outside the hospital who have parallel lives to his experience. The chances of that dad taking lethal matters into his own hands only to miss his daughter coming out of comatose was a tragedy. That really was a miracle for her to escape being a vegetable.
I feel for Paul. His confession of being afraid he's not "good enough," to do greatness, or be close to his family, holds him back from being with his family. I think his talk helped with coming to terms with not wanting to regret people-pleasing everybody else. He should totally do what he wants to, which I am sure is a lot of people's reality nowadays. I find that happiness is what people are striving for to lead a fulfilling life, and that's exactly what Paul should do (Ragosa is definitely doing it).
Drew is awesome in training Ragosa haha! It's good to know Ragosa was the one who stood up for Drew to the board members last season for his sexuality. That's one of the smaller deeds Ragosa did for Drew without question, and that shows good leadership right there.
Topher and T.C. are the ultimate best friends. T.C. said everyone thinks when he got back form duty, it was Jordan who kept him going. He admits it was Topher all along who brought him back. "You're too much of a pain in the ass for me to train a new best friend." If that doesn't tell you what kind of friendship they have, I don't know what else you'll need.

The Following 3.02, Bates Motel 3.01
The Following 3.02 Boxed In
That was so gory and mortifying on a whole new level. I'm glad they didn't show how they killed Agent Clarke, but explaining the procedure creates the imagery for the audience to experience actual horror in this episode. All the agents knew they wouldn't let Jeffrey go, that's why none of them wanted to "confess" what happened the night Lily Gray died. Still, it would have bought them some time so they could look for him. I can't get over the way he was actually murdered though. I wonder if they'll show his wife Anna in the next episode reacting to it all.
I'm not sure if I trust Max's new boyfriend. Again, I can't trust anybody who gets too close to Ryan; the same goes for anyone new in Max and Mike's lives. Mike looks closed off to everyone else so I think he will be safe in terms of his personal aspect. The cult already ripped away his father, I don't think they can do anymore damage than in the state he's already in.
Now that we know how Ryan met his doctor girlfriend Gwen, I wonder if she was placed there all along to meet him in that exact moment. She happened to show up when Ryan got Clarke air-lifted by helicopter out. She was the doctor attending to him in the end, and this seems all too suspicious. She could have been in the right place at the right time (benefit of the doubt speaking), or she also may have arranged this to happen on purpose so she could get information on Ryan and Clarke =/
I don't know anymore! This is just all too traumatic to process. Gwen could have an ulterior motive, and back in the premiere at the wedding dinner, she was cornered BUT never really spoke up about it since Ryan went to do the wedding toast. She was spooked out but not too much =S If she is part of it, this will turn ugly. If she really is just a supportive girlfriend, than she's going to end up being used as bait. I've seen too much of this show already to think otherwise. The key is to trust no one.
Bates Motel 3.01 A Death in the Family
I'm glad there was a preview before tonight's episode because it's been a year too long since I've seen the finale.
Norma is getting too clingy and close for comfort for Norman. His mentality is deranged right now and doesn't look like he can function without "mommy's support". I'm happy Dylan said something upfront without keeping it in. The more open the family is to each other, the better they can protect one another.
I'm so happy Emma showed up, I was beginning to worry what happened with her character and if she would stick around at the motel. I hope she does homeschooling with Norman through the season. I feel she's the only stable person who can keep an eye out for him the same way Dylan does. Norma takes things too far, and that could be because of her lack of mother figure. She becomes overbearing and tries to make up for not having that role model in her life growing up. It's entirely a psychological situation, which makes it interesting to see what Norman Bates is to become.
I'm glad Dylan is trying to start a clean sheet of a life. Sheriff Romero's intentions look to better everything for the town, and he's off to a great start with burning up the marijuana farms. When he was in the barn and slammed the thug into the counter, I couldn't stop laughing! Romero is going to play an awesome role in this series, I hope this doesn't make him a target for people running other malicious activity.

The Walking Dead 5.13 Forget
The Walking Dead 5.13 Forget
I don't think Sasha is "losing it," rather she's gradually slipping away. She wants to fall back into the way the group survived together before Alexandria happened. Trust is earned and I can tell between certain characters, it's turning into an Us VS Them situation (once again).
Buttons that poor horse! I'm glad the horse got to survive this long without getting infected, but it got mauled in a horrible death. I am glad the boyfriends are nice to Daryl and have taken him in to get comfortable. He doesn't want to carry weapons anymore! He feels some of the people to be genuine and wants to try out trusting these people.
Why do I get a weird feeling from the husband Pete? HE'S SO CREEPY! I'm not sure if he can be trusted, especially since Rick wants to get close to his wife.
"I got nothing else to do," was the EXACT same response in season two when Carol thanks Daryl for going out looking for Sophia everyday.
I couldn't stop laughing at Carol's threat against the little boy haha You want cookies or you want to get tied to a tree for the zombies to come get you? Hilarious of course.

Once Upon a Time 4.14 Unforgiven
Once Upon a Time 4.14 Unforgiven
The Charmings got me cheering for their team right now. I hope they get it right with tracking down Cruella and Ursula. My guess is they made a bet to save the kingdom of the Enchanted Forrest, but the deal went sour. They could also use dark magic by accident.
I don't want Emma and Killian's relationship to end! I can't stop cheering for them as much as Snow and David. When the queens of darkness interefere with Storybrooke, I think they will take it out on Emma. Maleficent's revenge is with Snow, but she wants to take an eye for an eye out on Emma. Without a doubt, I think they'll try to turn Emma to go dark side. Once again, I think Killian or Henry are the only ones strong enough to lift her out of the spell.
I knew August would somehow be the key to finding the author! I wonder if Henry will make the discovery or if Belle will help him in the library. I quite like Will Scarlett and Belle together. The hint was in the beginning when Will got two coffee cups from Granny's and walked straight out. I want Rumple to steer clear, he's getting on my nerves now. I find him to be the weakest of Cruella, Ursula and Maleficent. He's spent most of his time in Storybrooke, and he's attached to Belle that he can't let her go.
We will have to see what happens next Sunday!
