So, since my last post I've been trying to break in my Dr Martens so they're ready for the winter. While they haven't been that painful (apart from the bottom of the tongue digging in the top of my right foot and the tops of the boots digging into both calfs) but there's still a long way to go. I really wish they didn't need breaking in! I know that's once they've softened up they will be super comfortable. I just need to get them there!
I've also watched a few things:
"Criminal Minds" - 12x02 - I thought this was a pretty good episode. I think the focus on JJ and her family worked quite well, especially the way she was telling her husband about the case. I also kinda like that the case didn't end happily. I think it's more realistic that way because real life cases don't always happy ending.
"Lucifer" - 2x05 - I thought this was a good episode. I had a feeling Lucifer's dilemma wasn't gonna end well and I kinda thought it might end the way it did. I'm interested in seeing how Lucifer deals with it though - I just wish he could share it all with Chloe. I think it's a shame that he can't tell her everything that's going on in his life. I did enjoy Lucifer and Dan (is that his name? Detective douche?) geeking over the movies the victim made. That was quite cute.
"Scorpion" - 3x05 - I thought this episode was quite good too - the case of the week was interesting and the character interactions were good. I'm not sure that the stuff between Walter, Happy and Toby is gonna run smoothly though but I'm kinda interested in seeing how things go from here.
"Supergirl" - 2x03 - I enjoyed this episode too (although I miss Cat and the scenes between her and Kara, I hope we see her again soon. I'm also not entirely sure why James is qualified for Cat's job though). I'm glad it's been shown that Mor-El (is that his name? Chris Woods' character?) probably isn't a bad guy and I hope he develops a good relationship with Kara - I was slightly disappointed when she assumed he was a bad guy just because of where he came from (which was exactly what she seemed to be against when it comes to humans and aliens) so I was glad she realised her error and apologised for it. I thought the stuff between Alex and the detective was quite interesting too - is that gonna lead somewhere? Oh, and the martian at the end. What was that about?
"Conviction" - 1x04 - I thought this episode was pretty good although it really bugged me when they initially disregarded who turned out to be the real killer even though it definitely needed investigating. Surely they should explore all possibilities? I wasn't at all surprised by the reveal either. I felt sorry for Hayes when he brother seemed to turn his back on her though - where's she gonna go now? It seemed a bit unfair on his part, I thought.
"The Flash" - 3x04 - I thought this was a good episode. It was a shame to see Harry go but it's gonna be cool with this new version of him (what did he want to call himself? HW?). I wonder where that might lead and I'm looking forward to seeing the others relationships with him build up. The stuff between Barry and Iris where cute too. Oh, and what about the Caitlin stuff?
"Arrow" - 5x04 - I thought this episode was slightly better than last weeks. It was nice seeing Oliver and John together again and I hope they can figure things out for him in the future. I thought it was interesting how against it Felicity was but there was no way Oliver was gonna leave him there. The events in this episode showed that maybe the new team wasn't quite ready for such a bad situation. I wonder what they're gonna do to get their man back (I can't remember his name. Sorry)? Looking forward to next weeks episode.
"Designated Survivor" - 1x05 - I thought this episode was pretty interesting. I guess Maggie Q's investigations show that that sole survivor isn't quite what he appears to be (I knew there was something up with that) but what's she gonna do with that information? Obviously her boss has told her not to tell anyone (which in itself is quite suspicious. Can he be trusted?) but she's got to tell the President before he does something rash like appointing him Vice President! I did think the stuff about the military operation and the Presidents concerns about it where a little bit heavy handed in places though but things are definitely getting interesting when it comes to who was responsible for destroying the Capitol and killing all those people. Oh and they've captured their suspect alive, haven't they? I wonder what he's gonna say?
"Frequency" - 1x04 - I'm really enjoying this show and I like the way they're handling the nightingale case here. And now he's destroyed their only lead. How are they gonna find him now? And I wonder if they're gonna five the past and reset things in the end?
"Chicago Fire" - 4x21 - I quite enjoyed this episode but I'm not a fan of what they're doing with Dawson's character here. I was glad thought that she couldn't just foster that little boy. It just wouldn't have been very realistic, I don't think. You can't just decide you want to foster and then just do it. It doesn't work like that. I thought it was weird that she was the one who wanted Casey to be Alderman and now she wants this when he can't really do both. I dunno. This kind of storyline just reeks of a woman's storyline writting by a man. I don't think I like it.
