Well hello everyone, I was given the opportunity by Terence to write recaps for the 3rd season of HBO’s Girls. This is something new for me so we will see how this recapping business goes throughout the season.
Sometimes I wonder just what networks think when they schedule their shows or choose to stick behind certain ones. Fox, the network currently enjoying a high ratings filled Fall season, is one network I usually trust to make sound judgements. So color me surprised that the network would banish the midseason comedy Enlisted to Fridays. After watching the hilarious pilot, I’m hoping that the network goes all out with the promo because the could have a sleeper hit on their hands.
It’s back! I mean its been EONS since Scandal graced my television but the addictive series and best drama on TV finally returned with a solid episode that included some great twists, turns and performances. In lieu of doing full recaps (because Thursdays are exhausting) I figured I’d give my brief thoughts on the happenings each week. So here they are.
To make a terrible pun, The Vampire Diaries is a series that won’t die. No matter how ridiculous it gets or how many characters it shafts, the show is still highly rated and going on its 5th season. I honestly am not quite sure why I’m still watching the show, when I’ve left others for far less, but something about this cavalcade of vampires, witches, ghosts, werewolves and dopplegangers have become a staple of my Thursdays for the past five years. With that being said, I tuned into the season 5 premiere of the Vampire Diaries and I had some thoughts.
All good things must come to an end. Well good is relative and end is just the midseason finale of Teen Wolf’s 3rd season. For a season that has showed such vivid promise, these past two weeks have been rough. Would the finale restore the glory to the series or continue in the downward spiral? I’m happy to say that “Lunar Ellipse” at least stemmed the bleeding and will set Teen Wolf up for the second half of the season.
This. Gotdamn. Episode. Of. Teen. Wolf. I was managing during this episode to be both a nervous wreck and supremely happy about what was unfolding. But the ending of this shit rendered me so unable to can I just…here are my brief thoughts.
