Oh, life!!!
Hello everybody and yes, I’m alive ;)
So here I am to talk a bit about the tv shows situation till now. Some show I love. Some show I hate. Some show are good and some show definitely not. It doesn’t matter in the end, I’m having fun watching all these characters and their amazing stories!
Anyway I put down some reviews for my shows so far and in fact it will be a long post so feel very free to skip all this XD Soon or later I’ll make different post even for the picspams that I’m making and that at the moment I’m posting only on tumblr (feel free to follow me there if you want to: my tumblr)
Just two little notes:
1. Of course under the cuts will be spoilers. Big spoilers. So read at your own risk ;)
2. These are my personal opinions. And with this I mean MY opinions. You don’t have to agree with me, of course you don’t have to, just please, respect what I think, that all what I’m asking ;)
So, let's start with the old show that came back ;)
Chicago Fire
Very good beginning for this second season. This is not my favorite show of ever, but there are some good reasons to watch it. Above everything there are sexy firemen! Yeah, I know that this isn’t enough to watch a show, lucky me there are also very interesting characters. I really love the dynamic inside the firehouse and every single character is written in a very good way. The second season is working on very good storylines: this woman who wanted to close the firehouse, Shay and her problem after that man suicide, Shay with Devon and her problems with Dawson, Casey and his father period with his friend's kids, Cruz and his brother, Clarke (a very wonderful add in my opinion) with his wife and his past and Severide with his father and the reunion with his sister. So I should be more happy for this amount of storyline but… this show has a very big defect in my opinion: they have the vice to close these storylines too soon. The only storyline that go ahead for a lot of episodes it was the main storyline of the woman and the closure of the firehouse and Shays one. The rest is too quickly. And sometimes this kills the expectation of the watcher in my opinion. Anyway the writes gave us a very good cliffhanger for this mid-season finale. I mean, I don’t think that Matt will die, but he must be operate in his head so… the question is more how he’ll manage to pass through all this. I was so happy that finally they put together Matt and Dawson without wait ten seasons and now this, and her choice to become a firefighter will add a very big question mark at their love story. Well, there will be more to come in January and at this point I’ll definitely be with this show till the end of the season.
Criminal Minds
At the beginning of this season I had a recurrent thought ‘I’ll drop the show. I’ll stop watch this stuff’ It was like a choir in my head for a long time and then, finally, I found my show again. This happened with the last four episodes in which I found great cases that reminded me the Criminal Minds that I always loved. So, right now, I’m still watching the show even if, of course, I still have my doubts about some stuff. First of all: I would love to have more team interactions. Seriously, at some point it’s like everybody follow its own path and… I don’t know, they were a family and I want that family back. Luckily they showed us the family side in the last episode at Blake’s home and it was amazing! Second: I can’t handle JJ anymore. Her and her storyline with the new boss. Seriously, enough. I always loved JJ and for me she was a great and interesting character when she was a liaison with the press but when she became a profiler, in my opinion, she lost all her spirit -.- Third: more Garcia! Really! She’s not even close to be on my screen for all the time the I need her to be. Sometimes I’m watching the episode and I found myself thinking that they forgot her :( Fourth and last - and possibly what it’ll make me be hated by most part of the Criminal Minds’ fandom - I can’t handle Shemar anymore, too. I hate the day in which this man decided to open a twitter account. Because before that day he was Morgan to me, from the day he became Shemar. And I don’t like him. I can’t say differently because it’ll be a lie. I know that what we read and listen from actors on internet - and especially on the social networks - probably it’s not the real-real them but still… whatever it is I don’t like this public image of Shemar Moore. And this completely ruin Morgan to me. And I’m not even able to express how this make me sad, because Morgan was one of my favorite character but every time I saw Shemar’s face I just can’t -.- Thankfully I still have my Reid ♥ and my Rossi ♥ … yes, I know, there’s also Hotch but… the same speech that I did for Garcia it can be applicable to Hotch -.- Now I can’t wait to see episode ‘200’. I’m really waiting this one to have Emily back at least for an episode… I miss Paget very much, the show lost a lot without Emily in my opinion ç___ç So… we’ll see if at some point I’ll really find my old, true love, for Criminal Minds ;)
Doctor Who 50°: The Day of the Doctor
Impressive. Strong. Sad. Funny. Melancholy. And these are just some of the adjectives that I can use to describe this episode. I’m not even able to tell you how much I was happy to see again Ten. Ten was my Doctor and he’ll always be. I’ve got to admit that with the time and the episodes I liked Eleven, too. Matt Smith grew up a lot like actor and his Doctor grew up with him very well, plus I love very much the relationship between he and Clara, they’re a perfect match and if it wasn’t for River I’ll probably be a shipper of them anyway… I’m taking the long way to talk about the episode XD Three Doctors together, brilliant ideas and great actors. Moffat had all the ingredients to make a hell of a episode and for me he did. I’m completely and totally satisfied. I was a bit worried at the idea to watch this special, because I had a lot of expectation and you know, I was afraid to be disappointed but I wasn’t! David Tennat… he’s so useless to speak about with him. What else can I say that I never say about this man. He’s perfect. Wonderful, impressive, amazing. And, like I said, to see Ten again filled my heart of great joy. Plus… I know that ‘Rose’ wasn’t ‘Rose’ but still… this double image of Ten and Rose plus Eleven and Clara it was so sweet and lovely that I forgot that ‘Rose’ wasn’t ‘Rose’ at all ;) The only thing that I still don’t understand it’s Clara’s storyline. I suppose that this episode is after the end of the last season so… why Clara is alive? Well… you know what? I suppose that I can’t have all the answers XD Even because probably I’m the only one who’s still wondering this thing XD Ohhh and impressive very much the idea to include Twelve (or Thirteen???) in the scene with all the Doctors *___* And now well… there’s the Christmas’ special with the goodbye at Matt Smith and I don’t think that I’m ready for another goodbye, so sad :( but I’m also very excited to see Peter Capaldi’s new Doctor so… I really can’t wait for the new adventures of the Doctor ♥
Doctor Who Christmas Special: The Time of the Doctor
When Matt Smith became the Eleventh doctor I was pissed. Furious. Oh so disappointed. But with the time he became a perfect Doctor. I mean, my doctor is Ten and he always will be, but Eleven took a piece of my heart indeed, and I never believed that something like this could happen. So here I am today with my eyes still burning because said goodbye to Eleven it was hardest than what I thought and I couldn't keep back tears. Really the last scene was amazing, there’s not much words to describe it. To see he and Amelia again. And the goodbye with Clara. Seriously impressive. And Matt. Oh Matt. He was pure perfection in that scene, I’m very impressed. I think that there isn’t much more to say. The episode was very intense and I liked how they explain the possibility of a new regeneration for the Doctor. And now the era of Thirteen will begin. Peter Capaldi entered in our life just for a few seconds but well… definitely a couple of brilliant seconds! Now I’m curious to see his Doctor. I’m curious to see how it’ll go his relationship with Clara and I can’t really wait the new season and this new beginning. So, in all this just one last thing to say: goodbye and thank you Matt Smith ♥
Grey's Anatomy
So… am I liking this season of Grey’s Anatomy? I am. But I have a lot of concern about it. First of all, and I’ll keep complaining about that till I’ll see something different: there’s no continuity! It’s a completely disconnected season. I don’t even know how to explain this but I feel like there are a lot of holes in the storyline and I’m totally disappointed about that. I’m liking the in the end Cristina and Meredith seemed to fix their problems. Because their friendships is very special and I couldn’t handle to see them don’t talk to each other at all. I liked the storyline of Alex’s father. Beautiful and intense. I liked Richard and his storyline, too. I’m not like too much anymore Callie and Arizona. It’s just some sort of ‘let’s keep them together to make the fans happy’. Well, I’m a fan of Callie and Arizona and I’m not happy for this situation. And I’m very pissed with Arizona! There are thousands of woman on the planet and she has to sleep with someone with both she and Callie work with? An intern? Really? Could this story be more squalid? I don’t know, at some point I would probably prefer to see them a part because like we saw in the last episode Arizona isn’t happy at all -.- I loved a lot Bailey’s storyline. It wasn’t a easy topic to talk about, but for me they did great. Even if I’m not liking at all her attitude toward Ben. Especially when in the last episode she basically accused him to be the reason because her illness got worst O.o And let’s talk about the big topic: Jackson and April. I know that everyone in the fandom are talking about this but… I don’t care XD I mean I liked April and Matthew, and I especially liked Jackson and Stephanie but… it’s Shonda! It was write from the beginning that April and Jackson will end up together -.- I also can’t handle anymore all this hate toward Jackson. Maybe I made in my own way, but it’s so cute for me the fact that he did what he did, remembering what Mark told him. And all this memories of Mark made me happy. And in the end what I need is for Shonda to use Jackson in a better way. Because for me it’s a character with a lot of potential but not used in a good way. That’s all. I’m curious to see how the things will go from now on especially for Ross. That scene in the OR was very strong and sad. I liked a lot how Richard handle all that *.* So now the appointment with the Shonda’s drama is at the end of February so maybe at that point the fans will stop insulting Jackson XD
Hawaii Five-0
Eh. Here we are. I’m so pissed with the writers of this show that I don’t even know where to start. I was telling myself that episode 11 it’ll be the last one for me and that after that I’ll drop the show, but in this episode I finally saw the show that I loved and I decided to give it another shot after the Christmas’ hiatus. Now the big problem of this season is that they completely changed the dynamic of the team. I think that when a group work perfectly in a certain way it must stay in that way. Now, Danny is Steve’s partner. Enough. Not Catherine. Not Grover. But Danny and eventually Chin. I still like Steve and Catherine like couple, I still think that she’s the perfect match for Steve, but I don’t want her like part of the 5-0. When Steve gave her the badge I wanted to scream -.- I know that with Grace away for the pregnancy they needed a female figure on the field, okay. I understand. But she could just keep helping Steve from time to time like she always did. She didn’t need to be part of the team. Seriously, I can’t pass over this. But in this last episode they gave me what I want: more Steve and Danno. More Chin. Max and Kamekona (because their time on screen was drastically reduced this season, and this is another thing that I don’t like at all!). Danno and Grace. And a good case. Anyway a friend told me that at some point Catherine will go away at least for a bunch of episodes and now I want to see what they’ll do. If the writers finally understood that a lot of fans are very unhappy for their choices and they’ll take a step back. Because let’s say this clear, if they won’t do that, if they won’t take back this show at what it was (and come on, you can like slash or not, you can think at them like best friends / brothers / partners whatever, but this show was all about Steve and Danny. Plus Chin and Kono!) I think that this will probably be the last season of Hawaii Five-0. Probably it’ll be for me in any way I’m afraid. But beside everything I said about the last episode at the moment for me it’s not enough to keep watching the show while it’s on air. So I’ll probably catch up with the rest of the season during the summer hiatus ;)
How I Met Your Mother
I’ve got to say that I was worried about this season. I couldn’t imagine how they could run the entire season during a weekend but, let me say this: they’re doing this perfectly. Not even in its last season this show is disappointing me, indeed I’m loving it more than ever and I already know that my heart will be reduce in a lot of small pieces in the series finale. One of the thing that that’s to say about HIMYM is that even after nine seasons I’m still laughing like in the pilot. It never gets old or repetitive. The lines were always good and funny and the characters were simply amazing! And then, according with the fact that I’m a big shipper of Barney and Robin it’s perfect to see like last season the weekend of their wedding and, by the way, in this season they’re more perfect than usually together *.* And the mother. The touch of the mother is pure perfection. I love the mother a lot and she’s really a perfect match with Ted *.* I adore when they showed us imagines of their future, the marriage’s proposal was perfect in a perfect Mosby’s style *.* Season nine of HIMYM? Awesome!
NCIS: Los Angeles
Definitely a great season so far. I’m a Densi’s shipper, so I can’t be more happy than what I am for how the things are going between them. I didn’t like when Hetty send Kensi’s away, but with Daniela’s pregnancy it was necessary for her to go away somehow and after the gift that Hetty gave to Deeks and Kensi for Christmas I love her again XD The stories of all the episodes are well done and never boring. Sam and G are perfect like always and in this season they had again more time on screen than in the past season and I’m very happy about that. I love Eric and Nell, but I prefer to see more of Sam and G than of them ;) I like Nell like operative and she’s on the good way to be the next Hetty ;) I’m curious to see more of her partnership with Deeks even if I can’t wait to have Kensi back ;) I know that a lot of fans complain because after years they didn’t show not even a kiss between Kensi and Deeks in this season, but they played the story so good that I really have nothing to complain about. The ‘this is a love story’ scene is definitely my favorite between the two of them, even more than the scene of the kiss in the last season ;) The only thing missing in this season is a main storyline and I’m curious to see if it’ll be about the man that Kensi is looking for in Afghanistan. So after these episode a big ‘yes’ for this season of NCIS: Los Angeles!
Sons of Anarchy
It past a bit of time now after the end of the sixth season, but I think that I didn’t digest the shocking season finale yet. It was unexpected. And painful. OMG I have no words that could be able to explain to you how hard it was to watch Gemma while she was killing Tara in that horrible way. Without even think about Juice’s behavior. The fact that he decided to kill Roosevelt, helping Gemma hiding what she did. More than once Sutter told that SOA won’t end with a happy ending, and I was totally ready for this but now? This season was full of violence and desperation. Of guilt and blood. And now I’m very worried about what will happen in the next and last season. Many of the characters that I loved so much won’t probably arrive in the end and I’m assuming that Jax will die for last. He must die because at some point he won’t have reason to live anymore. This season was epic. Sad. Emotional. Intense. Like I said it’s hard for me to write about all the feelings and the tears and the anxiety that I felt at the end of every episode. It’s hard even to think about how much I hated Jax at the beginning of the season because he was doing a mess. How much was hard to watch Chibs punching him to make he understood what the hell he was doing, mhm? And then Bobby came back and things change. For the best? No, but at least it was a bit better. Gosh… I cried for Clays’ death, I never believed that I could do something like that, I wanted the man death but still… that last gaze between he and Gemma broke my heart. Seriously this season was amazing. That’s all. With love and hate. With smile e tears. This show will remain for me one of the best one that I’ve ever seen, no matter how hard will be the last blow that Sutter will gave us with the last season!
The Big Bang Theory
This season is very good so far. I admit that I didn’t enjoy the last season as much as the previous ones, but this year they’re doing a good job. I love more and more Sheldon and Amy. Especially Amy. She’s a great character and her relationship with Sheldon is hilarious and sweet at the same time. Even Raj is better because the writers gave us back a bit of the funny parts with Raj and Howard. I’m a bit ‘meh’ about Leonard and Penny because it’s like they have nothing to say anymore for me. But anyway, a good season, funny and sometimes even brilliant so I can't really ask for more ;)
The Mentalist
All my feelings. This show killed of all my feelings. Seriously after six year we finally met Red John! It was amazing, the confrontation between he and Jane was perfect. I’ve got to admit that I was fooled by the writers because I was sure that Bertram was Red John so it surprised me when they introduced McAllister as Red John, but it was brilliant and well played. The scene in which Jane killed him left me speechless. I knew from the beginning that he will be the one to kill Red John, he always said that and he did, still it was hard to see. Jane lost himself in that moment. In that moment he wasn’t Patrick Jane, CBI’s consultant. In that moment he was only Patrick Jane, the husband and the father. Beside everything thought I still think that no man should do justice by himself, so what Jane did it wasn’t such a good message but still… this is a show and he had his damn good reasons, plus no one we’ll really miss Red John! Now the things are change and I’m not so sure yet if I like this new road or not. The last episode were strange, so far from The Mentalist that we knew that I’m nervous for the rest. I liked the introduction of the new characters because for what I know this will be the last year for Amanda and Owain so, they needed new agents. Plus after the end of his character in Sons of Anarchy I’ll be more than happy to have Rockmond Dunbar on my screen every week, but I don’t know. Anyway I’m willing to give a good opportunity to the writers to show me that they can do a good work and that can keep this show to a good level like it always has been. I’ll keep watching the show till the end of the season and only then I’ll decide what to do next IF there will be another season because this is absolutely not sure yet.
White Collar
What can I say about a show that in its fifth season is still at the same point that it was in the first one? XD I never saw something like that, really. It’s always the same story. I trust you and you trust me. Then, I do something stupid and you don’t trust me anymore and I don’t trust you anymore. Different storylines at the margins but the main point is always the same old story between Peter and Neal. It was so interesting the introduction of a new handler for Neal. I was excited about that and… they killed him off. I watched all the episode before the hiatus but today I was watching the file of the new episode and I told myself ‘no, I can’t take this anymore.’ So for now I put this show in the list of ‘I’ll watch this when all other my shows will be over’, because at the moment Matt Bomer isn’t anymore a good reason to keep watch the show.
And here with the new shows ;)
Almost Human
Oh well, I’m in love. This show is amazing. I’m still waiting for a good development of the main storyline about what happened to John, but I’m enjoying every single episode and especially this strange friendship between John and Dorian. I think that in my mind I put them together after a couple of seconds, I mean come on, they’re a perfect couple XD they reminded me a lot of Steve and Danno from the first season of H50. And it’s so visible the alchemy between Michael and Karl and it makes all of this more beautiful in my opinion. The characters are all interesting, I love Captain Maldonado, and I adore all the technology that they’re using. I’m very happy to see Minka on my screen again, even if I’m afraid I’ll hate her at some point because they’ll put her between John and Dorian because, of course, they need the love story. Anyway at this point there’s a big YES for me about this show. I was waiting it, and now I’m enjoying it so… perfect, no? ;)
Chicago P.D.
I decided that I wasn’t ready to start another show but in the new episode of Chicago Fire there were Antonio and the other cop so I told myself ‘why not’. I liked the pilot a lot. I liked the cold colors, that grey so typical of Chicago. It reminded a lot to me the tones of The Chicago Code. I liked the action and the team and I like Voight. This is that kind of character with 2000 different facets and they could use him in a very good way. Plus I always loved Antonio in Chicago Fire and he's definitely the big reason because I'm watching this show ;) My hopes are that the writers won’t do the same stupid things that they do with Chicago Fire. I’m talking about closing good storylines in a couple of episodes or they’ll ruin this show that it could be very awesome ;)
Trophy Wife
I needed to find another sit-com to watch. After all this is the last year of HIMYM and I needed something to fill the hole that that certainly it will leave when it’ll be over. Just for a case I saw on tumblr some pictures of this show and someone captured my attention: Bradley Whitford. I love him. Seriously I do. He played my favorite character on The West Wing and he’s such an amazing actor that I had to start watch this show, and? Love! Pure love! This is brilliant. New. With very good lines and great funny characters. The cast is amazing, from the oldest to the younger and Bradley well, he’s so funny and great and… I’m in love! Really this is definitely the most beautiful show that I discovered for this year :D
And now some old show ;)
Numb3rs
And this is the show that now me and my father are re-watching. I saw all the seasons till the end, but he stopped at the end of season 3 (and in this way he lost that masterpiece who’s season 4). What can I say? I’m still enjoying the show, especially now in the third season when Colby and David become more important characters. I always had a crush on Colby and my OTP are David/Colby from a long time so it’s a pleasure to see them together again on my screen ;) Anyway if there’s someone here who never watch this show and wants a good crime show (that also talks about family, friendship and, of course, math), this is the show for you.
The West Wing
I’m almost at the end of the third season and it’s useless to say that this show won my heart. It’s perfect. Everything in this show is perfect. The cast, the storyline, the characters… this is one of the rare show that make you believe that it’s possible to make a product with all the chance to be remembered. I’m in love with all the characters, but my favorite is Josh. I love is irony, I love how can be pass to be funny to serious in a moment. He’s amazing. And for the women both CJ and Donna *.* And I want to see Josh and Donna together because they must be. They’re perfect ♥ I also love Sam even if it’ll be always strange for me to see Rob Lowe in a political show being someone different than Senator McCallister (and this is just for whom watched Brothers&Sisters). And then well… then there’s Martin Sheen, people. There was a scene at the end of season two in which I would wanted to kneel in front of him because of his mastery in that moment. It was a monologue that he did in the Washington’s Cathedral. It was a monologue that President Bartlet did toward God. It was impressive. Great. Majestic. And in that moment Martin Sheen had my heart. Seriously, for who would wanted to watch a great show this is the one. Of course it’s a political show, not a easy gender, but if you like it well… it’s Aaron Sorkin after all people *.* (And now I need more of The Newsroom in my life… so, just to say xD
Scrubs
I’m at the fifth season at the moment and I’m in love, more and more after every episode. This show was brilliant and perfect. JD and Turk were hilarious and I love that even Carla knew that they basically were a couple XD Elliot is so crazy and perfect that I’m surprise. I saw the actress in HIMYM and her character was completely different I mean… really different. She’s a great actress! And what can I say about the Janitor? XD And Cox and Jordan? And Kelso? Really all the characters were write in a very good way and the actors were all amazing and after five season it’s still making me laugh a lot XD But one of the thing that I love most about this show it’s that it isn’t just funny, there’s always a message behind the episode and this is the thing who make the show really special :D
And well... it needs a special category: a show that I loved and that I quit at some point because I couldn't handle it anymore and then I decided to give it another try and that now I love more than before... XD
Supernatural
I stopped after just a few episodes of season six. I couldn’t handle all the storyline of soulless Sam and it was annoying me a lot. The point is that it was hard for the writers to do something perfect like season 4 and 5. And it was with this idea that I decided to give another try at the show. I started the re-watch with my father from season 1, and episode after episode I remembered why I love so much this show: Dean and Sam. I always loved the relationship between the brothers and I realized that I missed them in my life very much. So we watched all the first five seasons and in the end we caught up with season 6 and 7. Okay these seasons are not too good but they’re also not too bad. It was like to watch a good show, with great actors and good storylines. I always liked Castiel so his main storyline in season 6 was impressive and I loved it. Season 7 was most WTF XD I liked all the leviathans storyline but well… I didn’t see Bobby’s death coming. It was like to lose a great old friend and it broke my heart in thousand of little pieces. With my father we arrived at the end of season 7 because it was the last season that they showed in Italy and after that I kept watching season 8 and now I’m catching up with season 9. Season 8 was amazing. I liked everything of it. Starting with the memories of the years that the Winchesters spend away from each other. I liked Sam’s part but, of course, Dean’s was the best for me. All the Purgatory’s storyline was impressive and then there was Benny. And gosh if I loved Benny and gosh if I cried when Dean had to kill him to save Sam. I liked the storyline to close the gates of Hell. I loved to see more Crowley and Kevin. And Abbadon that I hope to see more in season 9. And then there was Charlie from season 7. And Garth. And a lot of new options and good storylines. So yes, this last seasons can never be compare with season 4 and 5, but in the end I’m enjoying it. I’m enjoy the episodes and to have Jensen Ackles back on my screen XD So… I’ll do all my best to start watching season 9 while is airing because a weekly dose of Winchesters is good for the spirit!
New show that I tried and dropped after a couple of episodes :(
Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
I was curious and excited for this show. I liked the pilot, I was very happy to have Coulson back in my life, but after a couple of episodes I just found it boring. I didn’t like the characters and I didn’t like the stories. Yes, I still like Coulson, but I realized that I like to see him in the movies and this is enough. For how good character he is, for me he hasn’t enough personality to have his own show. So at the third or fourth episode I decided that it was useless for me to keep going ;)
Dracula
For me the creators of this show made a very big mistake: calling it DRACULA! Yes, this is the reason because people started watching this show, the idea of a show about one of the most beautiful vampires ever wrote but… this show has nothing to do with Dracula -.- The only things that the writers kept were the names of the characters -.- I tried to watch three episodes, just because JRM was a very good vampire, but at some point I just couldn’t handle this thing anymore. So… goodbye Dracula… and I’m so disappointed because I was so happy to have a vampires’ show to watch this season!
So that’s all. Finally Justified came back this week with the fifth season and the first episode was already epic and I also started to watch the fourth season of Haven and this reminded me how much I missed that little town and Nathan and Duke and all the amazing characters of the show *.* At the moment I can’t wait for the new season of Game of Thrones and especially for August when we’ll have ‘Outlander’ the new Starz show based on the books of Diana Gabaldon that I love in ways that I’m not able to explain. The casting is amazing and I can’t wait to see those characters came to life *.* So I’m a busy happy girl right now!!!
So here I am to talk a bit about the tv shows situation till now. Some show I love. Some show I hate. Some show are good and some show definitely not. It doesn’t matter in the end, I’m having fun watching all these characters and their amazing stories!
Anyway I put down some reviews for my shows so far and in fact it will be a long post so feel very free to skip all this XD Soon or later I’ll make different post even for the picspams that I’m making and that at the moment I’m posting only on tumblr (feel free to follow me there if you want to: my tumblr)
Just two little notes:
1. Of course under the cuts will be spoilers. Big spoilers. So read at your own risk ;)
2. These are my personal opinions. And with this I mean MY opinions. You don’t have to agree with me, of course you don’t have to, just please, respect what I think, that all what I’m asking ;)
So, let's start with the old show that came back ;)
Chicago Fire
Very good beginning for this second season. This is not my favorite show of ever, but there are some good reasons to watch it. Above everything there are sexy firemen! Yeah, I know that this isn’t enough to watch a show, lucky me there are also very interesting characters. I really love the dynamic inside the firehouse and every single character is written in a very good way. The second season is working on very good storylines: this woman who wanted to close the firehouse, Shay and her problem after that man suicide, Shay with Devon and her problems with Dawson, Casey and his father period with his friend's kids, Cruz and his brother, Clarke (a very wonderful add in my opinion) with his wife and his past and Severide with his father and the reunion with his sister. So I should be more happy for this amount of storyline but… this show has a very big defect in my opinion: they have the vice to close these storylines too soon. The only storyline that go ahead for a lot of episodes it was the main storyline of the woman and the closure of the firehouse and Shays one. The rest is too quickly. And sometimes this kills the expectation of the watcher in my opinion. Anyway the writes gave us a very good cliffhanger for this mid-season finale. I mean, I don’t think that Matt will die, but he must be operate in his head so… the question is more how he’ll manage to pass through all this. I was so happy that finally they put together Matt and Dawson without wait ten seasons and now this, and her choice to become a firefighter will add a very big question mark at their love story. Well, there will be more to come in January and at this point I’ll definitely be with this show till the end of the season.
Criminal Minds
At the beginning of this season I had a recurrent thought ‘I’ll drop the show. I’ll stop watch this stuff’ It was like a choir in my head for a long time and then, finally, I found my show again. This happened with the last four episodes in which I found great cases that reminded me the Criminal Minds that I always loved. So, right now, I’m still watching the show even if, of course, I still have my doubts about some stuff. First of all: I would love to have more team interactions. Seriously, at some point it’s like everybody follow its own path and… I don’t know, they were a family and I want that family back. Luckily they showed us the family side in the last episode at Blake’s home and it was amazing! Second: I can’t handle JJ anymore. Her and her storyline with the new boss. Seriously, enough. I always loved JJ and for me she was a great and interesting character when she was a liaison with the press but when she became a profiler, in my opinion, she lost all her spirit -.- Third: more Garcia! Really! She’s not even close to be on my screen for all the time the I need her to be. Sometimes I’m watching the episode and I found myself thinking that they forgot her :( Fourth and last - and possibly what it’ll make me be hated by most part of the Criminal Minds’ fandom - I can’t handle Shemar anymore, too. I hate the day in which this man decided to open a twitter account. Because before that day he was Morgan to me, from the day he became Shemar. And I don’t like him. I can’t say differently because it’ll be a lie. I know that what we read and listen from actors on internet - and especially on the social networks - probably it’s not the real-real them but still… whatever it is I don’t like this public image of Shemar Moore. And this completely ruin Morgan to me. And I’m not even able to express how this make me sad, because Morgan was one of my favorite character but every time I saw Shemar’s face I just can’t -.- Thankfully I still have my Reid ♥ and my Rossi ♥ … yes, I know, there’s also Hotch but… the same speech that I did for Garcia it can be applicable to Hotch -.- Now I can’t wait to see episode ‘200’. I’m really waiting this one to have Emily back at least for an episode… I miss Paget very much, the show lost a lot without Emily in my opinion ç___ç So… we’ll see if at some point I’ll really find my old, true love, for Criminal Minds ;)
Doctor Who 50°: The Day of the Doctor
Impressive. Strong. Sad. Funny. Melancholy. And these are just some of the adjectives that I can use to describe this episode. I’m not even able to tell you how much I was happy to see again Ten. Ten was my Doctor and he’ll always be. I’ve got to admit that with the time and the episodes I liked Eleven, too. Matt Smith grew up a lot like actor and his Doctor grew up with him very well, plus I love very much the relationship between he and Clara, they’re a perfect match and if it wasn’t for River I’ll probably be a shipper of them anyway… I’m taking the long way to talk about the episode XD Three Doctors together, brilliant ideas and great actors. Moffat had all the ingredients to make a hell of a episode and for me he did. I’m completely and totally satisfied. I was a bit worried at the idea to watch this special, because I had a lot of expectation and you know, I was afraid to be disappointed but I wasn’t! David Tennat… he’s so useless to speak about with him. What else can I say that I never say about this man. He’s perfect. Wonderful, impressive, amazing. And, like I said, to see Ten again filled my heart of great joy. Plus… I know that ‘Rose’ wasn’t ‘Rose’ but still… this double image of Ten and Rose plus Eleven and Clara it was so sweet and lovely that I forgot that ‘Rose’ wasn’t ‘Rose’ at all ;) The only thing that I still don’t understand it’s Clara’s storyline. I suppose that this episode is after the end of the last season so… why Clara is alive? Well… you know what? I suppose that I can’t have all the answers XD Even because probably I’m the only one who’s still wondering this thing XD Ohhh and impressive very much the idea to include Twelve (or Thirteen???) in the scene with all the Doctors *___* And now well… there’s the Christmas’ special with the goodbye at Matt Smith and I don’t think that I’m ready for another goodbye, so sad :( but I’m also very excited to see Peter Capaldi’s new Doctor so… I really can’t wait for the new adventures of the Doctor ♥
Doctor Who Christmas Special: The Time of the Doctor
When Matt Smith became the Eleventh doctor I was pissed. Furious. Oh so disappointed. But with the time he became a perfect Doctor. I mean, my doctor is Ten and he always will be, but Eleven took a piece of my heart indeed, and I never believed that something like this could happen. So here I am today with my eyes still burning because said goodbye to Eleven it was hardest than what I thought and I couldn't keep back tears. Really the last scene was amazing, there’s not much words to describe it. To see he and Amelia again. And the goodbye with Clara. Seriously impressive. And Matt. Oh Matt. He was pure perfection in that scene, I’m very impressed. I think that there isn’t much more to say. The episode was very intense and I liked how they explain the possibility of a new regeneration for the Doctor. And now the era of Thirteen will begin. Peter Capaldi entered in our life just for a few seconds but well… definitely a couple of brilliant seconds! Now I’m curious to see his Doctor. I’m curious to see how it’ll go his relationship with Clara and I can’t really wait the new season and this new beginning. So, in all this just one last thing to say: goodbye and thank you Matt Smith ♥
Grey's Anatomy
So… am I liking this season of Grey’s Anatomy? I am. But I have a lot of concern about it. First of all, and I’ll keep complaining about that till I’ll see something different: there’s no continuity! It’s a completely disconnected season. I don’t even know how to explain this but I feel like there are a lot of holes in the storyline and I’m totally disappointed about that. I’m liking the in the end Cristina and Meredith seemed to fix their problems. Because their friendships is very special and I couldn’t handle to see them don’t talk to each other at all. I liked the storyline of Alex’s father. Beautiful and intense. I liked Richard and his storyline, too. I’m not like too much anymore Callie and Arizona. It’s just some sort of ‘let’s keep them together to make the fans happy’. Well, I’m a fan of Callie and Arizona and I’m not happy for this situation. And I’m very pissed with Arizona! There are thousands of woman on the planet and she has to sleep with someone with both she and Callie work with? An intern? Really? Could this story be more squalid? I don’t know, at some point I would probably prefer to see them a part because like we saw in the last episode Arizona isn’t happy at all -.- I loved a lot Bailey’s storyline. It wasn’t a easy topic to talk about, but for me they did great. Even if I’m not liking at all her attitude toward Ben. Especially when in the last episode she basically accused him to be the reason because her illness got worst O.o And let’s talk about the big topic: Jackson and April. I know that everyone in the fandom are talking about this but… I don’t care XD I mean I liked April and Matthew, and I especially liked Jackson and Stephanie but… it’s Shonda! It was write from the beginning that April and Jackson will end up together -.- I also can’t handle anymore all this hate toward Jackson. Maybe I made in my own way, but it’s so cute for me the fact that he did what he did, remembering what Mark told him. And all this memories of Mark made me happy. And in the end what I need is for Shonda to use Jackson in a better way. Because for me it’s a character with a lot of potential but not used in a good way. That’s all. I’m curious to see how the things will go from now on especially for Ross. That scene in the OR was very strong and sad. I liked a lot how Richard handle all that *.* So now the appointment with the Shonda’s drama is at the end of February so maybe at that point the fans will stop insulting Jackson XD
Hawaii Five-0
Eh. Here we are. I’m so pissed with the writers of this show that I don’t even know where to start. I was telling myself that episode 11 it’ll be the last one for me and that after that I’ll drop the show, but in this episode I finally saw the show that I loved and I decided to give it another shot after the Christmas’ hiatus. Now the big problem of this season is that they completely changed the dynamic of the team. I think that when a group work perfectly in a certain way it must stay in that way. Now, Danny is Steve’s partner. Enough. Not Catherine. Not Grover. But Danny and eventually Chin. I still like Steve and Catherine like couple, I still think that she’s the perfect match for Steve, but I don’t want her like part of the 5-0. When Steve gave her the badge I wanted to scream -.- I know that with Grace away for the pregnancy they needed a female figure on the field, okay. I understand. But she could just keep helping Steve from time to time like she always did. She didn’t need to be part of the team. Seriously, I can’t pass over this. But in this last episode they gave me what I want: more Steve and Danno. More Chin. Max and Kamekona (because their time on screen was drastically reduced this season, and this is another thing that I don’t like at all!). Danno and Grace. And a good case. Anyway a friend told me that at some point Catherine will go away at least for a bunch of episodes and now I want to see what they’ll do. If the writers finally understood that a lot of fans are very unhappy for their choices and they’ll take a step back. Because let’s say this clear, if they won’t do that, if they won’t take back this show at what it was (and come on, you can like slash or not, you can think at them like best friends / brothers / partners whatever, but this show was all about Steve and Danny. Plus Chin and Kono!) I think that this will probably be the last season of Hawaii Five-0. Probably it’ll be for me in any way I’m afraid. But beside everything I said about the last episode at the moment for me it’s not enough to keep watching the show while it’s on air. So I’ll probably catch up with the rest of the season during the summer hiatus ;)
How I Met Your Mother
I’ve got to say that I was worried about this season. I couldn’t imagine how they could run the entire season during a weekend but, let me say this: they’re doing this perfectly. Not even in its last season this show is disappointing me, indeed I’m loving it more than ever and I already know that my heart will be reduce in a lot of small pieces in the series finale. One of the thing that that’s to say about HIMYM is that even after nine seasons I’m still laughing like in the pilot. It never gets old or repetitive. The lines were always good and funny and the characters were simply amazing! And then, according with the fact that I’m a big shipper of Barney and Robin it’s perfect to see like last season the weekend of their wedding and, by the way, in this season they’re more perfect than usually together *.* And the mother. The touch of the mother is pure perfection. I love the mother a lot and she’s really a perfect match with Ted *.* I adore when they showed us imagines of their future, the marriage’s proposal was perfect in a perfect Mosby’s style *.* Season nine of HIMYM? Awesome!
NCIS: Los Angeles
Definitely a great season so far. I’m a Densi’s shipper, so I can’t be more happy than what I am for how the things are going between them. I didn’t like when Hetty send Kensi’s away, but with Daniela’s pregnancy it was necessary for her to go away somehow and after the gift that Hetty gave to Deeks and Kensi for Christmas I love her again XD The stories of all the episodes are well done and never boring. Sam and G are perfect like always and in this season they had again more time on screen than in the past season and I’m very happy about that. I love Eric and Nell, but I prefer to see more of Sam and G than of them ;) I like Nell like operative and she’s on the good way to be the next Hetty ;) I’m curious to see more of her partnership with Deeks even if I can’t wait to have Kensi back ;) I know that a lot of fans complain because after years they didn’t show not even a kiss between Kensi and Deeks in this season, but they played the story so good that I really have nothing to complain about. The ‘this is a love story’ scene is definitely my favorite between the two of them, even more than the scene of the kiss in the last season ;) The only thing missing in this season is a main storyline and I’m curious to see if it’ll be about the man that Kensi is looking for in Afghanistan. So after these episode a big ‘yes’ for this season of NCIS: Los Angeles!
Sons of Anarchy
It past a bit of time now after the end of the sixth season, but I think that I didn’t digest the shocking season finale yet. It was unexpected. And painful. OMG I have no words that could be able to explain to you how hard it was to watch Gemma while she was killing Tara in that horrible way. Without even think about Juice’s behavior. The fact that he decided to kill Roosevelt, helping Gemma hiding what she did. More than once Sutter told that SOA won’t end with a happy ending, and I was totally ready for this but now? This season was full of violence and desperation. Of guilt and blood. And now I’m very worried about what will happen in the next and last season. Many of the characters that I loved so much won’t probably arrive in the end and I’m assuming that Jax will die for last. He must die because at some point he won’t have reason to live anymore. This season was epic. Sad. Emotional. Intense. Like I said it’s hard for me to write about all the feelings and the tears and the anxiety that I felt at the end of every episode. It’s hard even to think about how much I hated Jax at the beginning of the season because he was doing a mess. How much was hard to watch Chibs punching him to make he understood what the hell he was doing, mhm? And then Bobby came back and things change. For the best? No, but at least it was a bit better. Gosh… I cried for Clays’ death, I never believed that I could do something like that, I wanted the man death but still… that last gaze between he and Gemma broke my heart. Seriously this season was amazing. That’s all. With love and hate. With smile e tears. This show will remain for me one of the best one that I’ve ever seen, no matter how hard will be the last blow that Sutter will gave us with the last season!
The Big Bang Theory
This season is very good so far. I admit that I didn’t enjoy the last season as much as the previous ones, but this year they’re doing a good job. I love more and more Sheldon and Amy. Especially Amy. She’s a great character and her relationship with Sheldon is hilarious and sweet at the same time. Even Raj is better because the writers gave us back a bit of the funny parts with Raj and Howard. I’m a bit ‘meh’ about Leonard and Penny because it’s like they have nothing to say anymore for me. But anyway, a good season, funny and sometimes even brilliant so I can't really ask for more ;)
The Mentalist
All my feelings. This show killed of all my feelings. Seriously after six year we finally met Red John! It was amazing, the confrontation between he and Jane was perfect. I’ve got to admit that I was fooled by the writers because I was sure that Bertram was Red John so it surprised me when they introduced McAllister as Red John, but it was brilliant and well played. The scene in which Jane killed him left me speechless. I knew from the beginning that he will be the one to kill Red John, he always said that and he did, still it was hard to see. Jane lost himself in that moment. In that moment he wasn’t Patrick Jane, CBI’s consultant. In that moment he was only Patrick Jane, the husband and the father. Beside everything thought I still think that no man should do justice by himself, so what Jane did it wasn’t such a good message but still… this is a show and he had his damn good reasons, plus no one we’ll really miss Red John! Now the things are change and I’m not so sure yet if I like this new road or not. The last episode were strange, so far from The Mentalist that we knew that I’m nervous for the rest. I liked the introduction of the new characters because for what I know this will be the last year for Amanda and Owain so, they needed new agents. Plus after the end of his character in Sons of Anarchy I’ll be more than happy to have Rockmond Dunbar on my screen every week, but I don’t know. Anyway I’m willing to give a good opportunity to the writers to show me that they can do a good work and that can keep this show to a good level like it always has been. I’ll keep watching the show till the end of the season and only then I’ll decide what to do next IF there will be another season because this is absolutely not sure yet.
White Collar
What can I say about a show that in its fifth season is still at the same point that it was in the first one? XD I never saw something like that, really. It’s always the same story. I trust you and you trust me. Then, I do something stupid and you don’t trust me anymore and I don’t trust you anymore. Different storylines at the margins but the main point is always the same old story between Peter and Neal. It was so interesting the introduction of a new handler for Neal. I was excited about that and… they killed him off. I watched all the episode before the hiatus but today I was watching the file of the new episode and I told myself ‘no, I can’t take this anymore.’ So for now I put this show in the list of ‘I’ll watch this when all other my shows will be over’, because at the moment Matt Bomer isn’t anymore a good reason to keep watch the show.
And here with the new shows ;)
Almost Human
Oh well, I’m in love. This show is amazing. I’m still waiting for a good development of the main storyline about what happened to John, but I’m enjoying every single episode and especially this strange friendship between John and Dorian. I think that in my mind I put them together after a couple of seconds, I mean come on, they’re a perfect couple XD they reminded me a lot of Steve and Danno from the first season of H50. And it’s so visible the alchemy between Michael and Karl and it makes all of this more beautiful in my opinion. The characters are all interesting, I love Captain Maldonado, and I adore all the technology that they’re using. I’m very happy to see Minka on my screen again, even if I’m afraid I’ll hate her at some point because they’ll put her between John and Dorian because, of course, they need the love story. Anyway at this point there’s a big YES for me about this show. I was waiting it, and now I’m enjoying it so… perfect, no? ;)
Chicago P.D.
I decided that I wasn’t ready to start another show but in the new episode of Chicago Fire there were Antonio and the other cop so I told myself ‘why not’. I liked the pilot a lot. I liked the cold colors, that grey so typical of Chicago. It reminded a lot to me the tones of The Chicago Code. I liked the action and the team and I like Voight. This is that kind of character with 2000 different facets and they could use him in a very good way. Plus I always loved Antonio in Chicago Fire and he's definitely the big reason because I'm watching this show ;) My hopes are that the writers won’t do the same stupid things that they do with Chicago Fire. I’m talking about closing good storylines in a couple of episodes or they’ll ruin this show that it could be very awesome ;)
Trophy Wife
I needed to find another sit-com to watch. After all this is the last year of HIMYM and I needed something to fill the hole that that certainly it will leave when it’ll be over. Just for a case I saw on tumblr some pictures of this show and someone captured my attention: Bradley Whitford. I love him. Seriously I do. He played my favorite character on The West Wing and he’s such an amazing actor that I had to start watch this show, and? Love! Pure love! This is brilliant. New. With very good lines and great funny characters. The cast is amazing, from the oldest to the younger and Bradley well, he’s so funny and great and… I’m in love! Really this is definitely the most beautiful show that I discovered for this year :D
And now some old show ;)
Numb3rs
And this is the show that now me and my father are re-watching. I saw all the seasons till the end, but he stopped at the end of season 3 (and in this way he lost that masterpiece who’s season 4). What can I say? I’m still enjoying the show, especially now in the third season when Colby and David become more important characters. I always had a crush on Colby and my OTP are David/Colby from a long time so it’s a pleasure to see them together again on my screen ;) Anyway if there’s someone here who never watch this show and wants a good crime show (that also talks about family, friendship and, of course, math), this is the show for you.
The West Wing
I’m almost at the end of the third season and it’s useless to say that this show won my heart. It’s perfect. Everything in this show is perfect. The cast, the storyline, the characters… this is one of the rare show that make you believe that it’s possible to make a product with all the chance to be remembered. I’m in love with all the characters, but my favorite is Josh. I love is irony, I love how can be pass to be funny to serious in a moment. He’s amazing. And for the women both CJ and Donna *.* And I want to see Josh and Donna together because they must be. They’re perfect ♥ I also love Sam even if it’ll be always strange for me to see Rob Lowe in a political show being someone different than Senator McCallister (and this is just for whom watched Brothers&Sisters). And then well… then there’s Martin Sheen, people. There was a scene at the end of season two in which I would wanted to kneel in front of him because of his mastery in that moment. It was a monologue that he did in the Washington’s Cathedral. It was a monologue that President Bartlet did toward God. It was impressive. Great. Majestic. And in that moment Martin Sheen had my heart. Seriously, for who would wanted to watch a great show this is the one. Of course it’s a political show, not a easy gender, but if you like it well… it’s Aaron Sorkin after all people *.* (And now I need more of The Newsroom in my life… so, just to say xD
Scrubs
I’m at the fifth season at the moment and I’m in love, more and more after every episode. This show was brilliant and perfect. JD and Turk were hilarious and I love that even Carla knew that they basically were a couple XD Elliot is so crazy and perfect that I’m surprise. I saw the actress in HIMYM and her character was completely different I mean… really different. She’s a great actress! And what can I say about the Janitor? XD And Cox and Jordan? And Kelso? Really all the characters were write in a very good way and the actors were all amazing and after five season it’s still making me laugh a lot XD But one of the thing that I love most about this show it’s that it isn’t just funny, there’s always a message behind the episode and this is the thing who make the show really special :D
And well... it needs a special category: a show that I loved and that I quit at some point because I couldn't handle it anymore and then I decided to give it another try and that now I love more than before... XD
Supernatural
I stopped after just a few episodes of season six. I couldn’t handle all the storyline of soulless Sam and it was annoying me a lot. The point is that it was hard for the writers to do something perfect like season 4 and 5. And it was with this idea that I decided to give another try at the show. I started the re-watch with my father from season 1, and episode after episode I remembered why I love so much this show: Dean and Sam. I always loved the relationship between the brothers and I realized that I missed them in my life very much. So we watched all the first five seasons and in the end we caught up with season 6 and 7. Okay these seasons are not too good but they’re also not too bad. It was like to watch a good show, with great actors and good storylines. I always liked Castiel so his main storyline in season 6 was impressive and I loved it. Season 7 was most WTF XD I liked all the leviathans storyline but well… I didn’t see Bobby’s death coming. It was like to lose a great old friend and it broke my heart in thousand of little pieces. With my father we arrived at the end of season 7 because it was the last season that they showed in Italy and after that I kept watching season 8 and now I’m catching up with season 9. Season 8 was amazing. I liked everything of it. Starting with the memories of the years that the Winchesters spend away from each other. I liked Sam’s part but, of course, Dean’s was the best for me. All the Purgatory’s storyline was impressive and then there was Benny. And gosh if I loved Benny and gosh if I cried when Dean had to kill him to save Sam. I liked the storyline to close the gates of Hell. I loved to see more Crowley and Kevin. And Abbadon that I hope to see more in season 9. And then there was Charlie from season 7. And Garth. And a lot of new options and good storylines. So yes, this last seasons can never be compare with season 4 and 5, but in the end I’m enjoying it. I’m enjoy the episodes and to have Jensen Ackles back on my screen XD So… I’ll do all my best to start watching season 9 while is airing because a weekly dose of Winchesters is good for the spirit!
New show that I tried and dropped after a couple of episodes :(
Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
I was curious and excited for this show. I liked the pilot, I was very happy to have Coulson back in my life, but after a couple of episodes I just found it boring. I didn’t like the characters and I didn’t like the stories. Yes, I still like Coulson, but I realized that I like to see him in the movies and this is enough. For how good character he is, for me he hasn’t enough personality to have his own show. So at the third or fourth episode I decided that it was useless for me to keep going ;)
Dracula
For me the creators of this show made a very big mistake: calling it DRACULA! Yes, this is the reason because people started watching this show, the idea of a show about one of the most beautiful vampires ever wrote but… this show has nothing to do with Dracula -.- The only things that the writers kept were the names of the characters -.- I tried to watch three episodes, just because JRM was a very good vampire, but at some point I just couldn’t handle this thing anymore. So… goodbye Dracula… and I’m so disappointed because I was so happy to have a vampires’ show to watch this season!
So that’s all. Finally Justified came back this week with the fifth season and the first episode was already epic and I also started to watch the fourth season of Haven and this reminded me how much I missed that little town and Nathan and Duke and all the amazing characters of the show *.* At the moment I can’t wait for the new season of Game of Thrones and especially for August when we’ll have ‘Outlander’ the new Starz show based on the books of Diana Gabaldon that I love in ways that I’m not able to explain. The casting is amazing and I can’t wait to see those characters came to life *.* So I’m a busy happy girl right now!!!
