I like you more than anything I've ever seen
Once again it's been a week since my last post. I think the week kinda got away from me. Anyway, I've managed to get some more of my Christmas shopping done - I can't believe it's almost that time of year again already! It doesn't seem that long ago when it was last Christmas.
Since my last post I have watched a few things as usual:
"Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" - 2x04 - I thought this episode was quite good. Has Greg left for good now? He's my favourite.
"Lucifer" - 2x08 - I'm really enjoying this season and I thought this episode was another good one. I really liked that Chloe was jealous when she thought Lucifer and Ella were a thing. And her denying it was quite adorable. When he realised that she was actually jealous it was kinda cute too. I almost don't want to ship them because I like seeing male/female friendships on TV but this show is making me want to do it. They do have good chemistry and she has had a profound effect on him, and his humanity. I'm interested in seeing where things go from here. And how far is his mother prepared to go?
"Scorpion" - 3x08 - I quite enjoyed this episode. This show is just easy to watch, I think. I felt sorry for Walter when everyone was dismissive to his concerns about the water explosion thing, and how they all just thought he was being silly like he had been on previous occasions. I was glad they realised they were wrong and apologised. I do hope Walter and Tim can become friends soon. I think might have some common ground.
"Supergirl" - 2x06 - I enjoyed this episode as usual but I thought Kara and Alex were being a bit unfair on Mon-El. Just because he has his abilities doesn't mean he should want to be a hero and I thought the way they guilt tripped him into it was really unfair. Just because he has powers doesn't mean he has to use them the way Kara uses hers. Besides Kara hid her powers for years when she first arrived on Earth so why were they forcing what they do now onto Mon-El? Having said that I did like it when he teamed up with Supergirl at the end (along with Guardian. I'm not sure how I feel about that whole thing yet) though. But now Kara's insistence that he be a what she things is a better person had led to him getting into trouble. I wonder how that's gonna play out in next weeks episode?
I thought the Alex stuff was quite nicely played out - the talks between her and Kara were nice and I felt really sorry for her when she was rejected by the detective (I can't remember her name). I wonder what's gonna come next for Alex? Oh, and what was the stuff about J'on's blood transfusion? Where might that go?
"Timeless" - 1x06 - I thought this episode was a good one. I'm glad all the lies between the team have been exposed but how can they carry on after this? Their dynamic had really settled and now that's all gone. What now? And obviously Lucy's father is involved in all of this somehow. Is that why she got the job in the first place? I'm enjoying this show more than I thought I would at first.
"The Flash" - 3x06 - I thought this episode was quite a good one again. I'm glad the other know what's been going on with Caitlin but I really hope Cisco's vision was somehow wrong (or misinterpreted) and that she doesn't end up being bad. Maybe she'll be a good metahuman like The Flash is? Oh, and how is Julian involved in everything? There's gotta be a reason why he was out of the office when he never usually is. Hmm. I'm interested in his character. I want to trust him but I'm just not sure. And the stuff about Wally is interesting as well. Is he gonna become Kid Flash for proper? I'm looking forward to seeing how things play out next. I think next weeks is the four way cross over which could be awesome or not. Sometimes I don't think crossovers work. Especially with four shows involved (and I don't watch one of them. Ooops).
"Arrow" - 5x07 - I thought this was another interesting episode. I'm finding the Russian storyline really boring though and tend to zone out a little bit when those scenes are on. I think the present days stuff is quite good though and is holding my attention well enough. The new Vigilante storyline was quite interesting and I'm looking forward to seeing how things play out with that. But what's the new girl in Team Arrow (name?) up to?
I think my favourite scenes in this episode were the ones between Quentin and Thea though, I really like their friendship and the actors play off each other really well. I'm looking forward to more things between them.
"Designated Survivor" - 1x07 - I'm really enjoying this show at the moment. I think the balance between the White House stuff and the FBI stuff has been doing really well. I just really want Maggie Q's character to tell the President what's going on because that McLeash (is that how it's spelt?) gets given more power. With the bombing looking like an inside job perpetrated by Americans I'm really interested about how things are gonna go from here. Kirkman is starting to not trust the FBI director guy so let's hope he doesn't react wrongly and do something stupid. The FBI investigation is in way over it's head and I have a feeling we might have some explosive episodes coming up. Metaphorically and literally.
"Frequency" - 1x07 - I'm really enjoying this show at the moment too and I'm glad they've moved away from the basic premise of the movie. I was quite worried about how they were make that premise work over the episodes but I think what they've done is working really well. The Nightingale case is really interesting and I like how they've made it the main focus of the show - I like that they seem to have realised that the cold case they had was the first Nightingale victim. That's could make things really interesting. I really like the character driven stuff too and am looking forward to seeing how things are gonna go in future episodes.
"Supernatural" - 12x06 - I'm really enjoying the stand alone nature of these episodes at the moment and I really liked this one again. I thought the storyline of a fellow hunter being killed and them going to the wake was really interesting and the addition of Jodie Mills and Mary made things even more interesting. I liked the scenes between Jodie and the boys and Jodie and Mary. I really like the character of Jodie and I'm glad she's survived so far - is the longest surviving female character in this show?
As we've had a few standalone episodes in a row we're probably due a really boring Crowley, Heaven hell, blah blah, focused one soon.
"Teen Wolf" - 6x01 - Season 6 is gonna be the final season so this is kinda the beginning of the end in a way. While I think it's probably time I am really gonna miss this show. I thought this episode was a really good opener and the 2nd half of the episode especially was really strong. I think the storyline of the horsemen erasing people is really interesting. I thought the storyline of the child's mother and father being taken was really well done. Especially things gradually disappearing, including their child in the end. That was really creepy. And then when they realised that once you've seen them you're already disappearing. And then, of course, Stiles saw one and everything got really compelling. The scenes of Stiles slowly being forgotten by everyone were really well done (from the little moments like the guy wearing Stiles' lacrosse shirt to the sucker punch of the Sheriff not knowing who he is, everything was just so disorientating) and Dylan O'Brien did a brilliant job as usual (I've been saying it for a while but that kid's a star. Hopefully he'll reach his potential after the show finishes). And how he's gone and nobody even knows. I really hope the show is gonna focus on people knowing that something is missing and trying to figure it out.
I think this storyline is actually a really good way of giving Dylan O'Brien is time off (I think he was filming the Maze Runner movie at the time, wasn't he? Before the accident) but showing the importance of Stiles as a character. I'm really looking forward to seeing where this show goes from here.
"MacGyver" - 1x09 - I thought this episode was pretty good but not as good as the previous few episodes, after those I had high expectations and couldn't help feeling almost disappointing. I thought the scenes between Mac and Bozer were good - and I'm glad they've found a place for him at the Phoenix Foundation and I'm interested in how things are gonna work with the extra person there. I don't think the scenes between Jack and Mac were as good these week thought which was a shame.
Also watched:
"Humans" 2x03, "Chicago Med" 2x04 and "Criminal Minds" 12x05 (are they actually gonna address Hotch's absence soon or what?)
