Tense - tense - tense... This season wind up to next week's season finale is killing it (in a good way of course)!!
If it was me I would have executed a double tap when he was coming up the escalator.
All I can ask is when can we expect season 11 to start coz I'll mark my calendar now. Another top episode!
What the Sh** **ck bloody crazy episode did I just watch! !
Okay... this one floored me. What an episode!
There was, and then, but then a bit of flim flamming, sleight of hand. But that's not all, and damn, it just keeps goin'!
If this episode alone doesn't give the show an added three seasons on top of the already confirmed season 10, I'm going to go Ape.
Thank you to whomever contracted the writers responsible for this masterpiece. You've renewed my love for shows. The Black List has gone ballistic this season and between this and another new show I have thoroughly enjoyed, 'Reacher', I've loved my viewing over the last few months.
This one is hands down 10/10!
Finished watching Reacher this week.
Finally a show with depth, some dry wit that punches you in the side when you're not expecting it and some moments that are quite touching, again when you least expect it.
Reacher, the character is good example of this series... it's not a character with a well crafted sponge costume on, it is a character that you get what you see, brawn, a unit that can crash through obstacles to crush his target.
If you like action, disappointed with flimsy stories and characters and are completely over current trends... Welcome to your new favourite show!
A battle scene. Yip.
Why does 117 run around with half an armour suit on for most of this series? He's Spartan. And using a wet rag like Pablo as a character, he would best suited of he was portraying the character properly by doing a Mando and keeping the helmet ON.
Too much touchy feely going on. Maybe the showrunners should have invested more time in researching the damn video game this is supposed to be based on. It's Halo running as a soap.
I'll watch it to the end of this season and if it doesn't pick up I'm outta here. I'm expecting violin music to break out next week.
Okay, I'm going to get to the point... This show sucks!!
How can a show start this bad, and continue!
I was rooting for the zombies kill of this 4 pack and the two lagging behind.
And more surprising there's a season 2.
Just don't bother... I'm pretty sure it was watching this show in the first place that created the zombies.
1/10 for tyre fire.
There's obviously a rift between Lois and her sister. I never knew Lois had a sister. There's a clear beginning of further plots of a number of angles being developed in this episode. So without without pulling a stinky face over this episode I'm gonna let this one ride, but it was a plot marker episode for sure.
The writing could've been better to have these new arcs be introduced a little more spaced, but then again I guess they didn't want any of their characters to feel as though they are the fluffy bunny sitting on the shelf with nothing to include them.
Definitely a step down from last week but there always needs to be an ebb and flow in story development I guess.
I needed to sleep on this episode before adding my thoughts (without spoilers), and I promise I won't just try, DO.
This was an amazing episode! Brilliant.
I'm in 'tech world' myself but I was still blown away by how well they did segments of this episode - stunned is probably a better word for it.
A number of surprise faces were welcomed back, and yes, we do get to see Boba and the larger arc coming to view.
The take away from this episode from me to you, if you liked Star Wars, what it stood for, the original epic, the true Lucas experience, and you haven't ventured into the world of The Mandalorian or The Book of Boba Fett, 'Don't Try, Do' watch these! My rating for this ep 9.5/10
Okay we're back Baby!
Great episode... and what a reveal!
It was a genuine, "Whoah... So Cool" Moment.
I've just finished watching Elementary through for the second time.
If you forget about the loose relationship to the classic Sherlock Holmes character and the occasional virtue signalling and other bias political directives you can actually enjoy the series. The dry wit of Holmes is a crack up and some of Watson's retorts are likewise.
Sometimes I believe the entertainment industry has this somewhat baffling need to ride the coat tails of known classic hits only to shoot themselves in the foot when the audience becomes disappointed by how little the alluded link to the classic characters/theme reveals itself. Then the audience thinks 'this has nothing on the original or a remake from another country', they then quickly loose interest and move on.
If American show makers have a little more belief in themselves and their intended audience they needent hook into past classics but develop a new 'classic' with no sly pass-off but as something new.
There were some very good moments in this show with interesting cases along with a very somber and heart felt long story arc that became a strong thread all throughout not to mention a genuine love that grew between the lead characters.
My advice is drop the classic Holmes and Watson expectation and just enjoy the show and the characters for their own reasons.
Welcome back Superman and Lois, we've missed you.
S&L had done it again. A great episode that drove it home with some interesting directions the show can go.
Fingers crossed we won't get this season messed around like the first with Covid issues. This season took off through the starting gates... if you have any like for Superman and Lois and that whole world, you really need to get into this show.
How did either The Teenage Mutant Ninja Teens get in Star Wars, or were they The Wiggles??
I had to double check what I was watching.
I get using slow heat to build over time in a new show, I really do, but why do we keep seeing Boba walking into town to either be attacked or turned away in every episode? Why doesn't the buy or acquire a Hover car?
What are we really watching?
I was initially excited to watch this particular show, but this episode was like stepping on a Lego piece.
I don't see a season 2 in this. It would be too predictable and may as well watch 'Mr Ed' (for those young'n here it was a sitcom where the focal guy had a talking horse).
This episode really did nothing for me. It was very predictable, timeframes were crazy messed up from what could understand. At the beginning of the episode they talk about 3yrs since but on the grave stone it has 2021. Are we ahead of the show now, just very confusing and frankly lame.
This feeling I have watching this episode brings back all the tension and shouting in my head that the original series got me in at this time of the season!
The crescendo of episode 9 of the original always had me rewatching a few times to try figure out, 'okay Dex, how you gonna get out of This?!' Needless to say this episode is no different because, 'reasons'. (not gonna spoil it for anyone).
I'll say it again, there better be more seasons coming up in this new series and it can't just end like Dexter's Righteous And Violent Ends of his targets.
There will be Dark Passengers bubbling up and out of few million viewers at least if there isn't a season two announced pretty soon...
I quite enjoyed episode 1 of the new The Book of Boba Fett. It probably didn't really need to take so much time in the back story and the historical to get us up to speed. It may have been better to flash back over a couple episodes instead.
But it was ohh soo good to see Star Wars watchable again.
There was some moments that I could've done without. one example would be the musicians playing just a different rendition of the same song they played in the original...wth?
The SFX were good, and I liked the atmosphere, to definitely cut from the same cloth as Star Wars actual and not the crap we've had to deal with over the last several years.
I cannot wait for episode 2!
Crazy tense moments. Another episode that went by far too quickly!
Best line in the episode, 'Hate it when I'm the one who's bleeding.'
There are some, "Really?" moments in this episode which make you think, 'I friggin hope it's not going to be as predictable as they are purposely writing it for', the especially when consider the little town compared to Miami PD.
Maybe there are some 'Kurt curve balls' in this episode that are intentionally supposed to bruise us and throw is off. Maybe not?
All I know is, I won't be satisfied if there isn't going to be at least a season 2 and 3.
Friggin bananas! Talk about twists n turns!
And that was some damn Cameo... My skin turned ice cold.
And that, "Leave it to the police... What could possibly go wrong"... Classic.
That 45min episode felt like 10min. I give this ep a very high 9+.
Elementary has its moments and has a fairly good balance of comedy, drama and interesting moments.
Holmes and Watson take their time to become bonded but they do.
There are some glaring errors at times in the writing. One example is on a case they determined the shooting (that we saw) was fired from 'a semi automatic MP5'.
But the firearm was full auto. There are others but I won't add them here.
Overall it's an enjoyable watch. It is a show that I looked forward to weekly and recently I've been enjoying the second revisit to the show. There are good story lines and quite the cast to put some extra oomph in the series. There's also an interesting long story arc that eventually presents themselves.
Overall a good watch if you're into Whodunits dramadies.
Awww... What an Angel!
What a show!
Every cast member is just ripping it up... especially 'Debra'.
And it has just started to kick it up about four blades.. I mean gears. 'Harrison' is doing a bang up job too.
Best Show On the little or big screen this year! I don't like putting spoilers in my comments, but I have to say this comment was so hard to write without wanting to add some, it was such a good episode.
Note to the show creators... There better be a season two and I hope a season three being considered. Otherwise I'm going 'Dexter' on y'all...
Hello Dexter Morgan!
Returning back to Dexter is like finding a bottle of your favorite whiskey and taking that first sip.
I'm hoping all those old and new Dexter fans come on board because episode 1 did not disappoint!
I am so disappointed in this particular show. The music and the way father and daughter found the connection in the music was beautiful and I can relate. But actually glad Lucifer is finishing up this season. This last season has really gone to hell in more ways than one. White man bad, white cops bad... Continue this bull crap negative and false narratives and the entertainment industry will be going straight to hell also. Sad. The first few seasons were really quite good and I've enjoyed Lucifer's return and renewal. But now I'm guessing because of new writers the shows going the way it has. Oh well, just a few more episodes, if I can.
I'm really enjoying this show! It's been bubbling away and this particular episode reveals the direction it's going in. Excellent actors, Adrian and I particularly relished Emily in 12 Monkeys, and she's bringing her A game to Chapelwaite. The show has a darker tone than Salem and if you liked Salem there is a lot to like in this.
Forgive me but I gotta do it... That was Super!
What a cap to the season finale.
And another I got to address is my thoughts going into this show to begin with. It started good but it's on C W and most other shows today start turning into mush. And then with the impromptu break a few episodes in (for coof issues) it will just drop in a dark hole.
Far from it!
Damn it grabbed my attention from the intro to the end logo and theme, every, single, episode.
If by some chance you haven't watched this yet, sitting on the fence, You need to get on board because this is some of the better entertainment on TV for some time and one of best Superman and Lois renditions and explorations, unique to anything we've really seen. It's good TV... And in today's world that's become very hard to say with a straight face.
Well if I knew the way I felt about this show after finishing the series I would have started watching Travelers when it first came out.
I did start watching it but from memory there was another time travel themed show that came out at the same time, I may have gotten these two shows confused. Why am I bringing this up? It's only because I recently discovered Brad Wright created Travelers and as I'm a big Stargate SG1 fan I figured I should give this another go, but this show wasn't like the one I watched in the past.
Admittedly it took a few episodes to warm up, but from there on it just kept getting Better. Time travel has been done to death but this one had a much better method to bring the show to life. 12 Monkeys series was good but Travelers did none of the hard to follow time jumps and frustrations that can lead to. I think that is why I can say that Travelers did the time thing very well, and worth the watch.
The actors did a top job and the writing was good. Of what SFX there were in the show they weren't the best but the story covered and made up for the budget limitations.
Travelers is most definitely worth putting the 'time' into it. It's only 3 seasons but every season jumped up in viewers and there's a reason... It got better and better as each episode played out. There is a long arc binding it all together.
For those who aren't sure if they want to invest their time into a series that only lasts 3 seasons and worried there isn't a reasonable conclusion, don't be. Give it 4-5 episodes and if you aren't hooked come back and give me a prod.
I really hope Brad Wright looks into rebooting this show, it definitely has the distinct makings for that to happen.
I've watched this all the way through. I've watched all the other Discworld mini series / shows that have been released to date and The Watch is the most disappointing. Just because they name a show to cash in on the popularity of a classic, funny, series of books by a true creative artist, Sir Terry Pratchett, doesn't mean it will instantly gain the same level of praise when the show really just gets hijacked by identity politics, bad acting, bad scripts by activists and not talented screenplay writers. Comedy is all about timing timing timing and this has all the timing of an abacus. If this continues to be the way of television entertainment, there's no point continuing with this lifetime hobby and passion. May as well paint or program apps instead.
The disinformation they cite on Russia and Russian bots is just that as that was all debunked sadly for the Left. But then they talk about work on MKUltra. They bring up controlling other humans using maybe a cap or gene manipulation and radio frequencies. So you know there's graphine strands in the experimental jabs being issued out today, along with mRNA gene manipulation they are opening the brain to these graphine nanofragments... Are they setting it all up to control us using the 5G radio frequencies using our phones. The tech is already out there and it is being pushed upon us... Think about it.
At the end of season 8 with season 9 green lit I wanted to share without spoilers my honest take on the show in general. I've had Blacklist as my go to show when airing. It's been 8 seasons so there has been some real clangers and some episodes that could be termed snooze fests. But over all the show is intriguing and very watchable with James Spader being brilliant with the other cast members having their excellent moments also. The have been some epic, spiking a touchdown, knockout in the first round, exceptional episodes that I wouldn't be able to do justice to with just words. Some excellent writing! One of the most touching and unforgettable episodes paying tribute to Clark Middleton's character Glen Carter "Jellybean". Simply outstanding! This has to be The Best farewells to a loved character and cast member that I can say ice seen in any show (And I've seen a Lot of shows). The Blacklist is good viewing in my humble opinion.
Yeah! Great wind up of Season 8. What's better is The Blacklist is green lit for Season 9. Now the only trouble is waiting for Season 9 to be run.
Dang... They are really hitting the target consistantly with this show. It's great to have something to watch and enjoy. The shows end 'Superman and Lois' logo arrives way too quick!
This is a quick review of the eps since the return of the show after the impromptu bug pause. The show is kicking it out of the park, seriously! Some were thinking the show would lose its direction on but I'm very happy to say it seems more like there is a better focus on the characters. There's some seriously great acting by 'Lois' in ep08.
