TV commentary:

PLL- Honestly, the Liars wouldn't be in so much trouble if they weren't freaking morons. I get the receipt is evidence, but even if their plans didn't go awry, that was going to look awfully suspicious! I mean, the receipt Furey requests happens to go missing? But yeah, the flooding thing is even worse! Because now its an obvious cover up!

I mean, I guess it comes down to what can be proven, and right now Marco can't prove what he suspects, that the Liars killed Dunhill. Still, now he's going to be a dog with a bone. But ha, the balls on Spence though! When Marco asks her to return the hard drive she stole, she's all, "The only way I could've stolen it was if I was in your apartment! And why would I, your number one suspect, have been in your apartment?" Though I suppose if you're back is to the wall, you'll do anything to get out of it!

But as I said last week, of course the Lucas thing was a red herring. He does feel guilty though- because he was still friends with Charles, but only over e-mail. And thus he didn't know she was now Charlotte. So he would complain to Charles about Ali and the Liars, which he fears fueled Charlotte's anger towards them.

Heh, its weird though. So Hanna makes sure Lucas knows she always trusted him, and he reveals the reason he sold off the factory was that there were no investors. He was the only investor, he was spending his own money to keep Hanna's dream afloat, and he was just unable to do it anymore. But ha, be serious Hanna! She's all, "Why'd you do it?" C'mon, you know why! The only one who has a bigger crush on you than him is Mona!

Which is what I found weird- Lucas is all, "You know why!" and she acknowledges it. And.. that's it? She's like cool, and its obvious he'll continue to do anything for her. Which speaking of, its still crazy the liars won't let Mona help. I mean, sure, she was fucking with them in the beginning. But like Lucas, she would do anything for Hanna. And after all they've been through with the dollhouse, why the eff wouldn't they trust her again?

Its like if they freaking had Mona's help, they would've been out from under AD's thumb by now.

iZombie- Heh, I'm always wary when a show does D&D, but hey they were pretty accurate with the mechanics. That was totally weird though, that they didn't solve the case, it got kicked up to the feds. But hey, its Bozzio! You know it still gets me that she's also Niylah on the 100. Same thing with Echo being on Prison Break a few weeks ago. Its like put them in suits in modern times and they look older, but on the 100 they seem much younger!

Lots of crazy stuff happening though. Blaine replicated the blue juice to sell intense visions to clients. But they're a little too intense, as Don-E took some and ended up running out in public like some sort of maniac and get picked up by the Zombie hunters.

And Ravi had did a good job of covering by lying with a bit of the truth- he revealed he was a medical examiner, and got fired from the CDC for his zombie beliefs, and that he knows there were zombies since the boat party. The zombie truthers were wanting to grab a zombie, so Ravi told them this to be all, "Oh, they have dangerous claws, if you get slashed trying to capture them, you could start the very zombie outbreak you're trying to stop!" But yeah, Don-E's capture throws a kink in their plans.

Looks like Logan Echolls is head of the company now that 2 of the 3 head peeps were killed in last weeks helicopter accident. That random line about how Liv looked good in her dress was kinda weird. I mean, she's on a date with Justin. Are they already laying the groundwork for him to be another love interest? Justin isn't even dead yet.

Speaking of love connections, heh, Major finds the mostly hate mail Ravi had been hiding from him. One of which is a letter from a kindred spirit who claims she also didn't do what she's accused of. Heh, Ravi actually encouraged Major to meet this lady! She could be crazy!

But since Major is bored and alone, he does it!

And apparently Mr Big is back, and he's gunning for someone! Like I totally can't remember the specifics of last season, so I have no idea who he's wanting to kill. Blaine? Peyton?

Prison Break- Hey, we get a new end to the series, yet the groundwork is laid for a continuation if they wanted. So Michael's plan was kinda crazy, he manages to frame Jacob for the murder he actually committed, by recreating the scene of that one guy's murder. So Mike manages to get footage of Jacob shooting someone at the cabin which he puts forth as "frames Jacob removed from the original footage".

Also, the jar of blood was that guy's, I guess preserved in the cool waters of the lake? He uses it to plant evidence in Jacob's safe room. Now, he meets with the director of the CIA, who knows if he looks closer at Mike's evidence, it probably falls apart. But since Poseidon was a cancer at the CIA, he chooses to take Michael's version. Besides, they were able to get the nerdy accomplice, who spilled everything.

So Mike and Sara and Mike Jr and Lincoln and Sheba get to live happily ever after. Alas, Whip does not. He was always a hot head, and he couldn't help from tussling with lady henchman, and ended up getting killed by her. T-bag ends up snapping her neck and getting arrested. Which does put him back in Fox River (do they let him keep his bionic hand?!). Which is where Jacob ends up. He's all cocky, confident he'll get out. But lo and behold, who's his cellmate? T-Bag, who is ready to exact revenge for the death of his son.

One loose end though- Michael got his identity back, but isn't there still footage where Whip kills that one big time ISIS leader? Like, even if the government isn't after him, doesn't he have to worry about crazy terrorists seeking revenge?

And as I said, they set up future installments (doubtful, as the ratings for the revival weren't great), by having the CIA director be all, "I like your style, how would you like to come work for us?" And Michael's all, "I just want to go home to my family!" So if they wanted to continue this show, they could always have the CIA need him for a very important mission, and they manage to convince Michael to do it.

Anyways, I guess this does make Prison Break end on a happier note. Instead of Mike being dead, he and Sara and their son get to be a family.

the 100, izombie, pretty little liars, tv, prison break
