-Yvette Nicole Brown (Community) will appear on “Psych.”
-Lennon Stella (Maddie), Maisy Stella (Daphne) and Chris Carmack (Will) have been promoted to series regulars on “Nashville.”
“Defiance” 1x12
Datak is mayor. He killed the colonel of the Earth Republic. Stahma killed Kenya. Nolan died saving Irisa. Irisa became a weapon and saved him. The Earth Republic took over.
“Warehouse 13” 4x20
Claudia has a living sister. She is facing off against Paracelsus herself since everyone else has been kicked out of the Warehouse. Myka might die.
“Longmire” 2x07
This episode didn't do much for me. I don't see why Henry is basically super man or something.
“The Fosters” 1x06
We finally met Liam who is really creepy. Mariana outed Jesus and Lexi's sexual relationship to Lexi's parents. Brandon's dad was there for him for once. I like that Stef's dad was not a straight up cartoon. Yes, he was homophobic and that's really lame.
“Teen Wolf” 3x06
Derek got sexual healing from Scott's teacher (who is apparently a freak who bangs dudes with open wounds). Stiles saved Ethan and Ethan helped them. I enjoyed Stiles and Lydia saving everyone. Gerard is still alive.
“Switched At Birth” 2x15
It was nice seeing another version of what could've happened to the girls.
“King & Maxwell” 1x05
This was almost a poignant episode but there were too many dumb things. They found out it wasn't suicide after one test? Michelle couldn't have got her gun back after she knocked the guy out?
“Under The Dome” 1x03
I feel like Barbie could have just admitted to beating up Junior for sleeping with his girlfriend. The show makes things unnecessarily complicated.
“Skins” 7x02
“You look like a sexy funeral director or something.”
A lot of people I like and even respect had a problem with this episode. In a sense, I totally get it. Look, we all know that “Skins” kills off a beloved character every series. Though, I honestly was fine with Freddie dying, especially the wimpy way he went out. This was promoted as Effy's story. In a way, it continues her character. She was a good friend and person and it got her nowhere. She escaped into a fantasy where she had to do bad things. She did it because it made her feel together. Her boyfriend even resembled Freddie who once chased her crazy away. She was crazy. She got herself together even if it meant letting go of Naomi who was dying. She kept taking hits and letting them go. You saw it on her face. Until Emily learned the truth. Effy had been fighting her instincts all along about what to do about Emily. It wasn't until Emily wrote her off that Effy realized what she was doing. She made things right. She went to prison. She left her friend in safe hands since she didn't belong there. She found her goodness again.
On the flipside, we have Naomi dying. Naomily was epic because it broke all the rules of its time. It was there when the laws were not good to gay people. It was put on the shelf with a happy ending that felt earned. People viewed this series as an epilogue. The period on the end of the story. They didn't like a story that touched people across continents to end on the cruelty of fate. It's true people get cancer, even young people. A lot of them survive though. For the show to bring back a famous couple just to rip them apart feels a little cruel. I've been part of that on “All My Children.” It also brings up Dana from "The L Word" who they killed because she was a fan favorite character and the writers thought the cancer story would make a noise even though Dana was a young, athlete with great health insurance who probably had great odds of survival. Both opinions feel valid to me. I feel them both.
“Siberia” 1x02
I didn't really care for this. There was all this worry over Victoria and she ended up being fine. There might be dinosaurs but there wasn't much investigation in this. If the pace doesn't improve by the next episode, I'll probably be dropping this.
