The Adventures of Going Through Time and Space.



There are television shows that sometimes we have never heard before, never seen, something so unique that it just blows your mind right out of your head and into the deep parts of space and time. I'm talking about a show that has a long history. I'm talking about Doctor Who.

Doctor Who, a British SyFy television series that has been around since 1963 (that's 51 years, making it the most extended science fiction television series of all time), has been part of mainstream culture for a long time. It was a massive hit in the UK, and soon, the US followed it, too. The theme song is one of the most recognized theme songs ever.

The 13 Doctors that we've seen in the show's history, from Tom Baker to David Tennent to Matt Smith to now Peter Capaldi.  Also, the show has some of the most extraordinary, scary, and weirdest villains, from Daleks to The Weeping Angles (the most frightening thing I've seen on the show).

I never heard Doctor Who until 2011, when the Doctor was played by Matt Smith in season six. I heard of the series maybe a few months before the season started. I listened to the podcast "Talking TV with Ryan and Ryan," and they discussed the series. As I listened to this on my iPod in the library at my community college, I became very interested in this series.

I learned before watching a single episode that I didn't have to go back to the beginning, which was probably a better thing to do than to do it.

I started with Season Five, and after watching each episode, I was very much hooked on the series.

Smith was just hilarious and made me realize that bow ties are cool. Who wouldn't want to travel with a man in a blue box through time and space?

Soon, I became a Whovan, and so did my brother, Alex, too. And then, we started watching other Doctor Who episodes, from the classics to the series reboot in 2005.

My favorite villain is between the Daleks and weeping angels. Both scare me, but the angels frightened me to death when I saw them in season five.

Since watching Who, my favorite companion is Amy Pond. The girl who waited was the story that stole my heart, and when she was taken away from the Weeping Angels in season seven, I was sad. But now I'm getting attached to Clara Oswald, The Impossible Girl, as she is known to the Doctor. She's fun and clever.

She has a soft side and yet stands up for what she knows.

As I wrote this, I've seen the first episode of the new season and thought that it was terrific. Peter is the Doctor. He has the look, the style, and the accent for it. He is a man who is lost. I was very moved and thought seeing Matt Smith calling Clara was a great closure. It was something that I think we all needed to see.



This series is a series that regenerates, like the Doctor himself, with new stories and new characters.
Now, with the start of the new season and the new Doctor, I'm looking forward to new adventures into the darkness of time and space and what becomes of the Doctor and Clara as they travel off.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt "Kimmy Makes Waffles" Season Finale




In the season finale of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Kimmy and the mole women are in the bunker trying to find any evidence to get Rev. Wayne G. Wayne.

They've found a video tape that contains clips of Rev. Wayne doing karate kicks, DJ Wayne and his application for The Apprentice. To Kimmy, there was nothing there to get him on.

Tensions rises between the girls of finding nothing. But when leaves, the wind and a motorist touches or rides on the bunker door, it starts to close and the girls are trap again.

Meanwhile, Titus who's been embarrass from his interview, gets a phone call from his agent. The agent loved the YouTube video of Titus and wants him to go on The Soup and other things.

Lillian and Jacqueline take a trip to see Kimmy. These two are a pair of Thelma and Louise, they have chemistry no doubt about it. Riding in the car, talking with each other in Jacqueline's kitchen and almost about to have fun with a couple of sailors.

Even Jacqueline doesn't know how to drive, she turns to her family and remembers certain things like which way the wind blows or that big hair dogs are buffaloes.  But when she sees an Indian mascot come off the bus, she starts attacking it.

As Kimmy and the girls are still trapped, Kimmy has an idea of how to get out, same place where the rat came and went: the air vent. The Kimmy and the other two girls help boost up the vent but needed the other one (who's on the Rev. Wayne's said) for help. After Kimmy made a promise to her, she boosted up all there and soon just before making a phone call, Randy comes with help after rescuing what he says is the Mayor's cat.

The Kimmy and the girls comes back to court and Kimmy takes the roll of asking questions. She tries to be slick but with time running out, she puts in the tape. There might be nothing there until Gretchen was stun to see what was on the tape. Apparently the Rev. Wayne made an audition tape the day before the Apocalypse.

That winning the case and taking Wayne to jail. Kimmy and Cyndee made up their difference. Lillian and Jacqueline get there and Jacqueline makes a decision to travel to her home town without her contacts. Ah..she can't drive that well with them.

Not to mention that Dong has been calling Kimmy more than eight times, but when Kimmy called back Dong was married to another person that was in their study group. Awkward!!

But probably as not awkward as Titus coming to Kimmy and all of the sudden, his wife shows up. Total awkward. Boy, oh boy oh boy, next season is going to be juicy.

I've found this episode to be totally out the mind hilarious. Felt like it picked off where we left off which is great for binge watchers. Jon Hamm, amazing!!! That tape of him was just mind blowing funny. Give the guy an Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. He won that this year I think.

Felt like the show tied loose ends and also very much opened the door for more. I can't wait to see more Titus and his wife that's going to be something. What will Kimmy do next after the trail is all done? I wonder and I surely can't wait for season two.

Overall, I give this episode a 10/10. It closed it up and opened season two with so many possibilities.

For overall this season, I give this season a 10/10. I can't see any thing other that this series is truly one of the best. Literally one of the best comedies to binge watch online. I won't be surprised if this series starts to win a lot of awards because this is a show of talent that's all over.

You can catch the entire first season of the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt on Netflix now and season two will be in Spring of 2016.  

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt "Kimmy Rides a Bike" & "Kimmy Goes to Court"




In episodes 11 and 12 of the hilarious Netflix series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Kimmy has been summoned to testify in a court of the Mole Woman trial. She doesn't want to go, but after finding an activity to take the trail off her mind, Kimmy is in the same situation again. Will she go and testify in court?

In the episode "Kimmy Rides a Bike," Kimmy gets a letter from her hometown in India that she's been called to testify against Ravened Richard Wayne G. Wayne (played by Jon Hamm). It turns out that Kimmy doesn't want to go, and when she mentions it to Titus, all he can think of is when the trial is on and what channel he can watch it.

Much to his liking, he tries to be a good friend but goes to the library and watches the trial unfold. As Kimmy goes to see Jacqueline, they both head to the gym for a cycling class. The instructor (played by Nick Kroll) has a certain appeal with the ladies and guys in the class.

Kimmy enjoyed the class so much that she goes back for more, and it takes the thought of going back to Indiana off her mind. As Titus has been watching the trail, it's not looking good as Rev. Wayne is winning. Heck, the prosecutors aren't as good as Wayne, but they do make a cute couple.

Titus returns from the library and starts to freak out from what Wayne has said, getting all crazy and seeing the devil Lillian smoking. He comes home and sees Kimmy on the bike. Kimmy realizes that after falling on the floor, she's back in a cult.

Kimmy decides that she's going to go back to Indiana and testify. But first, she had to stop at the cycling class. The instructor is a fake who has a video screen for half his body as he is sitting on the toilet. That was a real shocker and unbelievably funny.

The episode "Kimmy Goes to Court" is one of the weirdest and most hilarious episodes yet continues the arc of Kimmy and the trial. Kimmy comes back home, and the river is now a parking lot.

As Kimmy walks into court, reporters hoover around her, asking questions. But Titus saved her as he began to ask questions if they wanted to know about the environment.

Later, he takes the attention away from Kimmy and onto himself. Titus is Kimmy's PR manager.

The trial goes on, and Kimmy is asked questions. There were simple ones, but when Wayne started asking questions, he got the whole thing to turn around on Kimmy as if she was the bad one. Kimmy had a chance to let one of the girls go out, but she backed off.

With everyone hating Kimmy, Kimmy had no idea what to do. She talks to Titus as she hasn't seen him mostly all day. After talking about it, she decides to return to the bunker and take the girls, too.

They searched the place to see what they could find, and they found where the Reverend was staying most of the time. A room full of electronic stuff powered by the crank that the girls had to work.

But then Kimmy finds curtains hiding a safe, and they've found something to turn the trail around as that will lead up to the season finale.

These two episodes were excellent and very weird, as well. I was stunned and moved by the performance of John Hamm, who played the great Reverend Wayne G. Wayne. I believe that he stole the episode.

One of the hilarious parts is when Titus is about to be interviewed by a news anchor from WTHR 13 but is too busy to notice that he's on life. He sings his heart out until he realizes he's alive and freaks out. And up it's a YouTube hit.

Overall, I give "Kimmy Rides a Bike" an 8/10 and "Kimmy Goes to Court" a 9/10.

You can catch every episode of The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt on Netflix now.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt "Kimmy Has a Birthday" & "Kimmy's in a Love Triangle" recap




In episodes nine and ten of the hilarious Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, we find Kimmy in a joyous mood as she's about to celebrate her 30th birthday. However, turning 30 and being an adult significantly differs from celebrating when she's 15. Plus, the two men in her life (besides Titus) will have to decide which one to date and which she can't see anymore.

"Kimmy Has a Birthday" 

Kimmy turns 30, and she hasn't had a real adult party. She's so excited to buy alcohol that she tries to buy some from a guy who has some in his van but is stopped when Titus arrives.

Complete with joy, Kimmy plans to have a fantastic party. Until her father comes, or step-father, with her sister Kymmi, who's jealous of Kimmy. Her stepfather was searching for Kimmy, but the only problem was that the man couldn't find anything or anyone. This character probably can't find the nose on his face.

Kimmy demands them to leave, but before they take off, her stepfather gives her a gift. It turned out to be a necklace of her mom with her and Kymmi's picture on it, and it had Kymmi storming out and leaving for Olive Garden.

Meanwhile, Titus figures out what to give Kimmy on her birthday. He tells her that she's written a song for her, but when he tries to come up with a song, he quits and finds a cute mummy unwrapping his costume.

As Kimmy gets ready, she has two men who want to give and be there for her: Dong and Logan. Logan gives Kimmy 30 gifts. One of the funniest scenes with them is when he calls and mentions that the iPhones are out. Just before they hang up, he tells Kimmy that they need to get the new ones before the older models fall apart, literally!

But with Dong and Logan at the party, it became a hilarious moment for the two of them. They try to fight, but no one can hit one another. Dong tries to kick him but lands through the wall, and Logan tries to boot but is stopped by Dong's hand holding the other.

Kimmy was furious and had everyone out. When Kimmy's step-dad shows up high on heroin, Kimmy figures out where Kymmi could be, and when they reach her at the Olive Garden, Kimmy tells Kymmi that she doesn't want her to hate her. She gives the necklace back to Kymmi and eats out.

When Kimmy gets back to the apartment, Titus gives Kimmy her gift, in which she has no clue of any songs before she was taken. So Titus performs the song "Fireworks."  Kimmy liked it but had some fundamental criticisms of the song. Poor Titus, but poor Katy Perry, right?


Kimmy did get an adult birthday party that had so much drama going on, but it was simply hilarious. Watching Dong and Logan fighting for Kimmy's love was just hysterical. Man, Titus indeed has some great taste in music. Also, not to mention that Kimmy and Kymmi look like they could be best friend sisters someday.


"Kimmy's in a Love Triangle" 

In this episode, Kimmy's sure in a real pickle when deciding who she wants to be in a relationship: Dong or Logan.

Logan has plans with her to meet his parents. But they end their conversation on the phone, and Kimmy tells Logan that she chose him as her boyfriend. The weird part was that he was horseback riding on a small horse, more of a phony.

In the meantime, Kimmy finds Dong but learns he's fired because the immigration people came and took everyone. Kimmy takes Dong in and has him spend the night at her place.

But all in, when Logan came to pick Kimmy up, he admitted that he was the one who called the immigration people and informed them about the illegal workers at the restaurant. Kimmy leaves Logan and finds Dong at the bus, but just before he agrees to stay, for him to survive, they'll have to get married. Yikes right?

But one of the best scenes throughout the episode was of Titus wanting to be Dr. Frankenstein at the restaurant, but when someone gets the part because he passes as straight. So Titus goes to a guy who teaches gay actors to be straight, and it turns out the guy is Dean Norris as M. La Loup, the straight coach.


It's that story in the episode that made it its best so far. I couldn't stop laughing when watching Titus learning, and going through those exercises was the best and funniest. 

I think that Kimmy and Dong could be a great couple. Heck, heck, they had a fantastic montage of Friends that they did and also the Breakfast Club as well. 

I give "Kimmy Has a Birthday" a 9/10 and "Kimmy's in a Love Triangle" a 10/10.

The Hunt is On: Aquarius Season Premiere


It's probably one of the best new and exciting summer series on network television so far. Aquarius brings a lot more than just hunting Charlie Manson, it gives more stories around the hunting of Charlie Manson. In it's two hour premiere the episodes  "Everybody's Been Burned"/"The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game" give some surprises and even some historical moments.

In the first episode "Everybody's Been Burned" gives us an introudction to the characters that we're going to see. Emma sneaking out and into her boyfriend's car. They're off into a party when someone sees her and takes her from him. Four days later, Emma's mother calls her friend and Lieutenant Sam Hodiak (played by David Duchovny). 

Hodiak is an old school cop as he forces and gets questions ask. This isn't Agent Mulder but a buffer and edgy Mulder, but still cool. He goes investigating but gets held back due to the style and nature of what the late 60's has become. 

He finds a narc-cop Brian Shafe (played by Grey Damon) who just got miss-arrested. Hodiak talks to him and they become like old cop/new cop style. They have a style that you want in a cop drama series.

They hunt down and gets a name Charlie and later gets the full name Charlies Manson. They find where he hangs out but goes undercover and use a female cop as bate. But when one of Manson's top guys wanted to take her before meeting Charlie. Shafe takes him down as they go in the back. 

Relazing as the investigation in this missing person's case goes on, Manson's name is tied to a person who has gotten him out of trouble, which turns out to be Emma's father Kenneth Karn (played by Brian F. O'Byrne).

It's then we see Charlie meeting with him and has a bit of a meeting. He wants names of record producers and artist because he wants to be bigger than The Beatles. He threatens Ken and mentions his daughter but also as he grab him, had a razor held to his neck. Manson almost about to have sexual intercourse until a car comes by. 

That had to be one of the most weird and yet shocking moments of that episode. 

When the show continues with the next episode "The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game." It introduce of what each episode will probably be from now til the end of the season. As Hodiak and Shafe looking for Emma another case winds up on their lap of a lady being murdered from head trauma. 

We got to see what Hodiak really was in this episode as he finds and makes more enemies for himself. A man who is dying from brain cancer tries to blame a murder to someone that lives in the neighborhood. Eventually, Hodiak saw it and to get him to confess to the murder, he had arrest a person who was interfering with his investigation.   That man goes by the name Bunchy and boy was he sure pissed when Hodiak was using him for bait.  He even though wasn't arrested and was release, he threaten Hodiak. 

In the meantime, Hodiak got the husband to confess on the murder of his wife. Hell, he even got him to think that he could walk off if he written down what he did. That's Hodiak I guess, a character playing the game. 

Shafe didn't like how Hodiak did that. They butted heads about it and than asked if he could give him a ride home. Shafe actually showed Hodiak his family, who's a mixed race family. After that Hodiak and Shafe go out and Hodiak ask if he still would help him find Emma. Looks like they're on the case. 

Manson on the other hand, had to teach Emma, who had no idea what to do for the group. He drops her off at a clothing store and tries to steal a coat for him but gets caught. Charlie comes in and takes care of the owner who loses his eyes. Yeah, the show's that dark.

As for Ken, running for office, throws a party for his campaign. He walks and spots Charlie right be hind him. They have a bit of a chat. Ken starts to lose it but when he drove over to Charlie's place, they have  much longer chat, more like kissing. Yes there's a relationship between them and almost to a surprise that Emma almost walked in. 

The series is a real dark drama that gives a good dose of historical moments during the timeline. The characters in the series seem to be both non-fictional and fictional. I'm pretty surprised that Charlie and Ken are both former lovers. I might not know a lot of Charlie Manson expect for the Manson Murders. 

I do love Duchovny in this series. He's like a buffed up, old style cop with a bit of Mulder in him. I like it and enjoy watching this character. I also think that maybe, just maybe that  the relationship between Hodiak and Emma's mother, Grace, would move up a to friend to maybe lovers. They seem to be not in a good marriage anyway. 

I'm looking forward to watching more of this series. For this two hour premiere, I give both episode a 9/10. I'm into it and can't wait to see the next episode. 

You can catch Aquarius Thursday nights at 9/8c on NBC
And to watch the entire series you can go to nbc.com or download the nbc app.

Aquarius is a new summer series on NBC that takes place in the late 60's when LA sergeant Sam Hook (played by David Duchovny) is helping with a missing person case with an undercover officer Brian Shafe (played by Grey Damon) who blends in like a hippie to fit in with the people being questioned.

The Surprise and Shocker:Chicago PD "Born Into Bad News" Season Finale


In this season finale of Chicago PD, there's nothing but intense, emotion and even a surprise or two that will have you stun.

So, Erin is not quite herself since Nadia's death. She's turn to her mother and got into a bit of a relationship with an old friend. That didn't turn out the way we hope.

Erin wakes up hangover, late to work as well. Voight and the retired Captain had a meeting about his nephew getting in some trouble with another task force.

When Voight gives the intelligence the download of the situation. Erin comes in late and after talking about the whole situation, Voight ask Erin to come in his office. He tells her that he needs her to be on top of things, notice that she's been late. She tells him that she's fine and is on top.

Voight has a plan to get these guys caught but is going to need Erin to be part of it. She goes and meets with the unit. She asked them a question that grills them. She tells them that Voight has a job for them to do. They meet with Voight at a bar and they agreed on the job.

Erin goes with the guys as Voight and the gang are watching from all four corners of the house. They go in and threaten the dealer of his money. He only had a few thousand dollars but it was when the dealers child come outs and the leader of the group puts a gun to the child's head and threatens.

Erin took to heart to stop this and shoots the guy. Voight and the rest head in and takes down the guys, getting them on taking money and selling drugs. The charges against the group of cops didn't stick because of Erin not being there and not taking the drug test because she would fail.

Worst part is that Bunny comes in the Station and ask for Erin because she has a gift for her, a photo of her and Nadia. Boy did Voight had her removed from the building. The lady just can't take a hint at all. Erin  is grieving and she's using that to get close to her.

Voight finds out about Erin when she came back. He relieves her from her duties and goes home.

Voight gets a phone call from the retired Captain. He tells him that he has his nephew and that they need to meet with him until a gang circles them and shoots them. The nephew comes out alive.

Voight and the gang takes a look around. He then talks with the nephew of what he's hiding, because the one of the guys mention an address that they hit. The nephew took some money.

The gang makes a moves in on a Latin drug kings, demanding on where these guys are hitting. They mention that they're going to take out a lady cop, which is  Erin.

Erin gets home with bag of grocery and her friend is there with beer and booze hoping to have some down time. When they go in, the gang is there and hits her friend in the head.  Erin is like totally cool and scared.

Atwater and Roman get there in time, Atwater takes out one in the leg and saves Erin. Just before that scene happen, you can see Erin just in like she's embarrassed with what's going on.

The leader apparently wasn't there and Voight makes a one ride there to his house and they have a meet and greet. The guy leaves out almost a million dollars on the table and throws a deal to Voight about taking half of it and letting him go. That wasn't going to happen. Voight gets him to put the cuffs on and he's off to jail.

Meantime, there's been some shocking moments that I've left out. One of them was that Al keeps getting phone calls and messages from a old friend that turned out to be an ex-lover when he was married. But he gets a phone call from a girl in jail, apparently her mother is the one he worked with and turns out that she is Al's daughter.

The other came near the final scene when Voight looking for Erin. She's at her mother's bar drinking a beer. Voight talks to her and tries to convince her to come with him. She's been thinking that she can't do the job anymore, that people that she has cared about have gotten hurt.

Even Bunny got on it too. Erin can't do the job no more. Voight tries to take her out and than demands that as her boss to get back to work but what she did was that she handed in her badge. And oh my god season three will be something...


I felt more compelling towards Erin in this episode. She's in a bad state of mind right now. The death of Nadia has really taken a toll on her and the meaning of her job. I think I speak with all fans of this show that we all care for her.

Also I have to mention that there might be a CPD Wedding with Ruzek purposing to Burgess. Well, at least something happy has come out of this episode, right?

I enjoyed this episode a lot. So much emotion with Linsey's story line and some intense scenes with Voight having a nice heated chat with one of the drug kings.

All in all, I give this season finale a 9/10. And as for overall this season, I give this season 9/10 as well because this season was full of character development and exciting stories that just takes my breathe away and blows my mind.


Chicago PD will return in the fall. You can catch episodes, clips and other things of Chicago PD at nbc.com.


Love and Rouge:The Mysteries of Laura "The Mystery of the Corner Store Crossfire" Season Finale


The season finale of The Mysteries of Laura shows not only that this is a police dramedy but also that it has some heart. The first 

In last week's shocking cliffhanger, Jake gets shot by an unknown robber. We cut to as Laura rushes to the hospital and demands to see Jake, as she's in a precarious state now. Laur Sees him as he exits the elevator and runs to him. Stop by the doctor; he tells her to wait in the waiting room and let him do his job, which she'll do for Laura.

Billy, Frankie, and Meredith are at the scene; Laura comes in and takes over by questioning the store clerk who saw it all.  Laura was determined to find Jake's shooter, even if she had to play a bit dirty.

The team arrested a DJ who had robbed a couple of other places. Billy and Laura questioned him and got him to spill some helpful information, even though he wasn't the shooter. They looked for the clerk at the shop but couldn't find him. But they did find his girlfriend, who's keeping their relationship on the down low because of his family. After she couldn't say much to Billy and Meredith, DJ was brought to talk to Laura, who was not in a perfect mood.

After spilling this, her boyfriend made a gun from the 3D machine and gave it to the shooter, asking for it. Billy and Meredith found the guy and got him to talk, but it was too late that he gave the gun to the shooter earlier.

They found the guy near the JFK airport at an auto shop. In that scene, Laura was bound to get answers and even took on a tall and big guy. But with him looking at another person, that gave Laura a hint that he's the guy. Of course, the guy ran but didn't get any further as Laura turned on the car wash machine and captured the guy.

It turned out later that he wouldn't use the gun but deliver it to another person. Someone was going to use it in the courthouse. They sweep the place until Laura knows and sees it through the security cameras of the person, a mother who lost her child to this guy on the trail.

Laura and the gang rush into the courtroom and talk to the mother down. Laura looked like she was relieved that this case was over. After the case, we see her talking with her dad about how she's been excellent as a single person and expects that she and Jake are divorcing.

Jake comes out of his coma; not only did he suffer from a gunshot to the chest, but suffered a head injury. He might not remember any after he says things like when Jake asked Laura to give him one last chance to be the husband and father he can be. Laura did admit that she still loves him. She tells her boyfriend that they might need a break, and he agrees and tells her that he'll be waiting.

Laura then comes in and sees how Jake doesn't remember that she brought his seat pillow to him. She walks out for a bit and sees everyone in the room that this family//this dysfunctional family is probably the best thing she has.

This episode starts quickly, like I saw in the previous episode, and then cuts to Laura in the ER. Emotions run high in the beginning for the first half hour. I couldn't get enough of Debra Messing's performance; she was in a more serious role.

It was a case of revenge from a mother who lost her child and wanted to take out the murderer that I didn't see coming.

Overall, I give this episode an 8/10; it was perfect. Robert Klein came back as Laura's father, funnier than ever. It wasn't a disappointment at all.

Overall, this season, I think it's been one of the best new series in a while. I don't care what other people may say about it. This series is excellent as it is. I find it to be like that Saturday Evening Mystery show. It's a simple series that you can sit, relax and follow. Debra Messing is unique, and so is this cast.

The series will return in the fall regularly, on Wednesdays at 8/7c, still part of the Woman Crush Wednesday with Law & Order: SVU and Chicago PD.

David Letterman: A Late Night Icon



As the hours countdown to minutes and those minutes countdown to seconds, we're not that far away from saying goodbye to a true late night icon, David Letterman. 

David Letterman is a name that's been part of my life since I could really understand what Late Night was all about. I was around eight or nine-years of age when I first saw Letterman and the first impression that I got was that he looked a bit like my grandfather. Okay, maybe not to some but to the naked eye they do look alike.

When I first watched him, his jokes sounded angry and very sarcastic, but it was funny. He can make a joke into a conversation and it would be funny. If a bit doesn't go well, he can make it funny. 

I've watched the Late Show during my childhood. I always stayed up til watch the Top Ten List or even when he was making funny of Dr. Phil and he had a segment called Dr. Phil's Words of Wisdom and it would just be hilarious. Hell, I would tape it and memorized it for class the next day and yes I did say what they played.

His style of comedy help me open up a bit and surprised mostly when I was in school. I was never a talkative person and using comedy kind of help open that wall of hiding and being afraid. I looked up to Letterman and also Jay Leno too for any comedy idea from their show and style.

And I can't forget another of Letterman's segments, Rupert Jee and his deli, who couldn't forget the things that Dave had him do. Oh my god, just think that Dave started that, not Ellen, even though she does it with celebrities.  


Letterman isn't just a late night hose or a television personality, he's an icon. With Leno gone (one of my favorites too) that only left Letterman to be the top guy and only top guy America knows and understands. With the Jimmys and Colberts and all, there's no one that's quite like Dave and there will probably never will be one ever.

That one or many things that I would take from watching Letterman is that he's one of the best communicators on television. He's such a great interviewer, asking the hard questions, the questions that are the most interesting and questions about his guests life and work. That what makes Dave great. 

Not to mention that when something bad has happen in the world like 9/11, Dave was there to give us some prospective of this tragic event. He's like our father figure.

And not forgetting that he created "Late Night" on NBC. He changed the landscape of late night television, creating that was opposite of what Carson's Tonight Show was then. Doing stupid and silly stuff was and still is smart, given way to three host of the franchise: Conan O'Brien, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers.

Now that time is running ever so closure, truly it's an end of an era on late night.  I was too young when Carson left, I cried when Leno left for the second time and now this could be another tear-jerking night. 

The Foo Foo Fighters will be the show's last musical guest. I have a feeling that somehow the Top Ten List will be of Letterman's close celebrity friends with a musical twist. The one thing I wish might happen but it would be a long, long, long shot that near the end after Letterman gives his final goodbye that his once best friend Jay Leno comes out, they shake hands and hug each other and Jay says to Dave, "Ready?" And they walkout as the two late night knights that they are. 

As I said, that a very long shot. 


Thanks Dave, your comedy has helped me through the rough times and the good times. A real showmanship, a comedian, a TV personality, a icon.  No other words can describe losing him expect, Thanks Dave!!

Chaos and Emotions are Everywhere: The Night Shift: Season Finale


This short recap is on the two episode season finale of The Night Shift. In this two-part episode, the night shifters not only deal with chaos in the ER but also in personal relationships and even dealing with a deadly sniper that's targeting the Night Shifters.

In the first episode, "Sunrise, Sunset" Topher and TC are over in Afghanistan trying to save and treat a friend that needs a new heart. The task of course is one hell of a dangerous missions, but TC does everything to get Topher's friend even if he has to treat him in the line of fire. 

In the meantime, Paul and Krista have a  bit of a competition between one another when a call comes in about an car accident and needed two doctors. Jake and Paul out there and when Paul sees a victim stuck in  car that on fire. Paul goes to do what TC does and well causes his hand to get burned very badly. So badly that he was recommend to treating patients in and out. 

Jordan, who's pregnant, dealing with a lot of stuff on this shift, one of them being that TC is over seas and the other a patient, who's a dropout to take care of her brother, who's also not happy with her. Taking care of this family really pushed her to help one another. But after treating her, Jordan talked with Scott who just settle with a father and son after a mistake from previous episode. 

But than as Jordan and Scott talk, Jordan collapse and that's what brings us to the next episode. 

In the episode "Darkest Before Dawn" we jump just a couple of minutes after previous episode. Topher and TC are back with Topher's friend and TC is on the edge to get to Jordan.


Jordan was not responsive but was breathing fine. Scott tells TC that she had a stroke and that it might be the cause from the pregnancy. TC and Scott does everything they could to save both Jordan and the baby. 

Meanwhile, Topher and Scott try to get his friend up to transplant to get his new heart but there's an issue, he was spiking a 101 temperature. They try to find what's wrong with him and turns out that it was an bacteria or infection but it was his blood that needed plasma. 

What Topher had done, has probably cause his marriage to go on the rocks. His wife comes tot he hospital and gives it to him that she's sick and tired of this crap. But later even though she's still mad, she picked him up and they drove to their daughter's recital.

The big story line was of the sniper, Jake and Gwen are in the line of fire of where the cops are at and soon they got the guy. The shooter was crazy enough to do crazy things. He even mention that there was a second shooter and there was when Jake and Gwen was treating him on scene. 

Ragosa and Paul got to treat this outside patient that came in because she was pushed out from a shelter and that she's homeless that lived in her car. But from what we thought she was at the beginning, she turns out to be the shocking second sniper. She tired to take a stab at an officer in the ER but that was stopped by Ragosa. But as soon as Ragosa and Paul realized who she really was, they found her in a pool of blood on the floor, stabbed herself. She was saved. 

But as for TC and Jordan, it took a turn for the worst. We got to see flashbacks of when, where and how they met, their first date and the break up. TC got a bit of dose of reality here and even pulled out the ring that he was going to purpose. 

Scott had performed surgery on Jordan after a turn for the worst. Scott saved Jordan but not the baby. TC was a mess and broke down. Jordan did wake up and TC held Jordan and talked. Jordan mentions that she overheard him talking about purposing. And after that he pulls out the box and shows her, he ask her and she says.....

Well, we'll have to wait til season three to find out.

I thought that overall this season had a mixture of more relationship stories  and medical stories. It was a more balanced out than the first season. I really enjoyed this season. 

There were some great performances from Jill Flnt and others. Some really good guest stars from Trace Adkins and even the First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden. 

I can't wait to see what season three will bring. Hopefully there will be a yes at the beginning of the scene of he season opener. This is literally one of the first medical drama that I've enjoyed since the days of ER and House. But I shouldn't leave out Royal Pains too. 

You can catch episodes of The Night Shift on NBC.com.

They're Back and Pitcher Than Ever: Pitch Perfect 2

Saw #PitchPerfect2 today and it was aca-hilarious all around.


Well, they'r back and pitcher than ever. The Bellas are back in this amazing new sequel in Pitch Perfect 2. 

After winning three national championships, the Bellas performed at the Kennedy Center, until a wardrobe malfunction happen when Fat Amy was performing to "Wrecking Ball." It turned into a massive aca-scandal for the Bellas. 

Facing suspension for their incident, they were taken out of their world tour and that they couldn't recruit anyone. This put a real damper with Chloe, but they find away to redeem themselves, by going to the World Championships and winning it. 

Meanwhile Beca gets a call for an internship at a local record company, with so excitement she tries to keep it under wraps with the rest of the Bellas. In somewhat it turns out to be a complete drag but heck that's all internships. 

With the Bellas trying to get back on top, a new student wants to come in and be part of the team. The new member Emily is dying to be a Bellas ever since her mother tells her how exciting it was when she was one. 

As soon as Emily's a member of the group, they took a looked at the team that took their spot in the World Tour, a team from Germany named Das Sound Machine. As each group got to meet, they insult each other but only Beca can't do any insult but more of making complements. 

With what Das Sound Machine could do, lip sync to dub sounds, it kind of gave the Bellas the idea that they need to step it up and do what Das are doing. That doesn't turn out to go the way they hoped. When they tried it in front of a group it wasn't pretty at all. 

To redeem themselves from another disaster, Chloe got everyone to go to camp where a familiar face awaits them to help get back to what the Bellas do best. 

After getting back their charm, Beca and the gang had an idea for a performance that will knock out the Machines. They performed a huge hit from Beyonce "Run the World" but also performed the song "Flashlight" that was one of the most beautiful songs in the movie.   

Overall, I thought Pitch Perfect 2 was an amazingly hilarious film. There was so many one liner jokes, pop culture and even cultural jokes. Not only did Rebel Wilson, Anna Kendrick and Brittney Snow stole the film, Hana Mae Lee, John Michael Higgins and Elizabeth Banks stole a lot too.  And I can't forget to mention how Hallie Steinfeld really brought something to the film and to the group.

I couldn't get enough of the Riff Offs in this movie. Seeing the Green Bay Packers was just mind-blowing of what they brought and how they brought it in the film. And the music, they sang some amazing songs from "We Belong," "My Lovin'," "Shake Your Booty," and "Before He Cheats." 

There were scenes that I couldn't get weepy eyed at like when the group was out on a campfire and they the group sings "Cups" to Beca. That was just heartwarming and also their World Championship performance too. Also but I really do love the song "Flashlight." It's such a great song. The next "Cups" song.


All in all, it's two hours of fun, laughter and their are some emotional scenes in the film as well. It's two hours of non-stop aca-fun. 

Pitch Perfect 2 is in theaters now!!

The Change in the Game: The Blacklist "Masha Rostova" Season






















Holy crap! That's what came to my mind after watching the season finale of The Blacklist. After what we've been through this season, it's a totally game changing next season. But first let's take a recap what happen here.

Liz is wanted for the what is murder of the senator that was infected with the virus that she carried that the Cabal set up. With that going on, Red tells her that she needs to leave the Post Office but she wouldn't do it until she over heard Cooper and Connolly arguing about Liz and all of this mess they're in.

Just as Lix overheard she started t leave but by the time she gets to the the floor, she's caught by Connolly and the FBI. Liz is being questioned and is taken a blood test to see if she's psotivie for the virus. They ask her questions about her life like where she was born and her real name.

Liz's real name is Masha Rostova and she was born in Russia. They keep pushing her to give them the right answers. In the meantime, Cooper who was leave of his duties of the taskforce because he wouldn't do what Connolly ordered him to do, talks to Red about Liz and all of what happen.

Of course, Red always has a back up plan when it comes to getting someone out of this kind of mess. The power was off for 45 seconds which gave Liz plenty of time to get out quick. With the help of Cooper of getting out, she runs into Ressler who stands there and talks her down but lets her go.

Liz meets with Red and Cooper and discuss of what to do next. Tom calls and talks to Red about what he could do: take Liz and runaway on his boat. Of course Red doesn't think that's a good idea and doesn't require his service anymore. But Liz would anyway.

Liz and Cooper looking up footage at the Union Station where Liz got knocked down by the bio-scientist who transferred the virus into Liz. She get there and sees the guy there and we flashback of how it happen.

After seeing the footage, Cooper tells Liz that his wife is being indited for sharing classified documents. So Liz was on her own, not! She went to Tom at his boathouse and the two investigated an apartment where the scientist was staying at. When they got there, there was a laptop with a flash drive that Liz too.

But the guy was running away. Tom and Liz chase him til he was stop by two guys that clearly shot and killed him. Liz was upset. This hasn't been her day at all and with  everything that has been going down,

As Tom cleans Liz up, they start talking. Liz has regrets not saying yes to him. And one shocking moment came when we see them making out. But it was a great scene that went back and forth which was really good. It cut the time of talk and love down a full good scene.

After that night, Liz wakes up wand finds the flash drive in her shirt. She uploads it on the laptop and finds documents that say that Harold Cooper wasn't really sick. Boy did that give Cooper one hell of a scene to show his temper. HE went full Thor on that guy.

In the meantime, Red sets up this one time meeting, he had his men pick up the best investigative journalist around the country/world. He shows the files of the fulcrum and explains of it and the outcome of having the knowledge.

Cooper and Liz met with Connolly, who is a member of the Cabal, and try to threat him with everything they have on him but the guy wouldn't budge at all. He even threats that everyone will be in trouble by sending Samar back to Iran, and Ressler losing his job of his drug addiction. So Connolly called out their buff.

But Liz with a last attempt pulls her gun and points it at him. Cooper talks her down but it didn't do any good. Liz shot and killed Connolly. Now Liz Keen is wanted fugitive. By the way, Tom Connolly is on the blacklist at No. 11 so just to inform you all about that. There was a blacklister that has been taken down.

But then, as Liz shot Connolly, she had a flashback. It was that of the night of the fire. She calls Red and he meets with her at a location. Red calls for the Traveler and as Dembe drops him off with Liz. She tells him that she remembers it all. That she killed her father after seeing him and her mother fighting. So that probably gives in that Red isn't Liz's father. But I think there's a catch. We can't assume just yet.


Red, who looked sad, tells her that he failed to protect her from that. He mention that he's the sin-eater, which eats the sins off of others so they can be good. But in the final scene where Rocket Man was playing, Liz and Red get in a van and take off to wherever they are going. They are now on the run.

The Director got a surprised when he saw the newspaper of their investigation of a secret government.

And just before the scene cuts out, we see Ressler picking up a photo and walks past the crew. He places the photo of Liz on the board , noting that she is now the most wanted person in the country. Li also got her face on the FBI most wanted board in the FBI office.

And then we see Liz lay her head on Red and just watch them looking on.

This episode was simply amazing. It picked up from where we left off and it never stop going until near the end. There were times that I had to hold my breathe.

There were so many good scenes, Cooper's temper at the doctor, Liz escaping from the Post Office. But it was that near to last scene when Liz told Red that she remembers, when she tells him about it and the look on Red's face was just so sad and yet emotional too.

Embedded image permalink

The song choice at the end was perfect. It was enough to give us a taste of what's to come. This was a game changer now. Red isn't the most wanted anymore, it's Liz. Now whatever will happen next season should be excited to see.

I give this episode a 10/10. It was simply incredible. Megan Boone was just phenomenal in this episode. It's one of her best performance this season.

Overall this season, it started off strong and it ended strong. This season so far was at it's best. The writing, the characters and production couldn't have been any better. I literally can't wait for season three to start. I'm dying to know what the trailer would be.

The Blacklist will return in fall.

What's your thoughts? Did you like how the story changed? Looking forward to season three? 

The Shocked and Stunned: Wednesday Night Drama













The Mysteries of Laura: "The Mystery of the Deceased Documentarian"

This episode went from solving a cold case to one of the most shocking endings in it's series so far and it leads to what I think will be a great and thank god a season finale.

When a bike messenger was looks to be delivering something get shots. Laura and the gang investigates that this murder isn't just about a message.

As the investigation goes, the victim turns out to be a filmmaker who was solving a crime that had happen 15 years ago. The victim made a film and sent it to a film festival but was rejected. Laura and Jake got to show a screening of it to the public and interviewed the folks who were there, that included the cold case victim's boyfriend.

But as their investigation goes on, there's someone who's also trying to solve the crime too. Casey, who's went to the same high school and is a podcast crime investigator, that's like Serial.

When you think that they found the killer who be the guy who hung himself in the flower shop, but as Laura would think it that if there's no note, it's not a suicide.

Laura and the gang dig deeper and that lead to going to the film festival that was going on in New York City and get the original copy of the bike messenger's movie. When looking at the final two minutes of it, Laura knows who the killer is.

That lead to the suspect's wife to come down and file paperwork to claim the earrings that apparently were left in the victim at the flower shop. Until Frankie gave the wife the wrong forms and she started to call her husband but didn't answer.

The suspect was at Casey's house being interviewed on her live podcast. When Laura made a phone, she talks to them and well, Casey did what Casey would do, spill out that he did it. The suspect gets mad but as Laura talks him down that his ex-girlfriend had cheated on him.

The suspect was taken down as Billy and Frankie got there. But it would be Casey that probably needed the protection from Laura.

Near the end of the episode, Laura and Jake have a moment. Laura is buying a summer house for the kids and her boyfriend. Jake doesn't feel like he'll be part of their kids lives after this but Laura tells him that he will always be. That lead to Jake going to the bar and joining him was Frankie. They talk about their plans and that freaky lamp that she brought in and sold.

But the shocking moment came when Jake went to a grocery store. He's looking for some zingers and when all of the sudden a robber comes in and demanded money. Jake gets ready to take the suspect down when a lady comes in and scared. The suspect points the gun and Jake takes the bullet for her and the suspect leaves.

Jake is on the floor shot in the chest. That was the most shocking and dramatic moment in the series so far and I think that come next week's season finale that it will be even more dramatic and a bit emotional as well.

I have to say I didn't see that ending coming at all. Yeah I'm feeling bad for Jake after that talk with Laura. He hopes that they would get back together and be together forever.

This episode had some funny moments. I enjoyed Melissa Joan Hart being the "Serial" character in this episode. It was so cool seeing Clarissa on the show.

I give this episode a 8/10. I think that this was pretty good episode. The one thing I literally take out of this episode was the shocking ending. and I'll just say this that thank god that next week is the season finale and not the series finale.

You can catch the season finale of The Mysteries of Laura next Wednesday at 8/7c on NBC.





Chicago PD: "Push the Pain Away"

After the aftermath of the death of Nadia, Erin isn't doing well to coup the lost. She went to see her mother, at a local bar where she works and drinks away.

I think I would know for a fact that Voight told Bunny to stay away from Erin. Can't stop a mother for loving and caring for her daughter.

In the meantime, a case for the intelligence takes on a group of guys who want nothing but justice for what this chemical company had done to one of the suspect's little girl.

These gone in a YMCA and goes on a rampage but not like you would think. They planned it and shot only less than seven people.

Voight and Al talk to one of the suspects that was caught. Voight talks to him but doesn't budge at all. So, when Atwater and Roman takes a look underneath the highway, they spot a bullet case and soon sees a camera.

When they play back the video, the suspects had taken off in a garbage truck not even five minutes ago. Atwater ran towards and demanded an officer's car. Roman and Atwater chase the truck and it stops in a building. They hold fire until everyone gets there.

Voight talks to Erin after a quick brief with the Captain on the back story of these suspects. Voight doesn't want Erin to spin out. This is after Erin was dragging from a hangover.

Erin and Ruzek interviews the company executive and his lawyer. After dodging the question of why these guys would be going after these people. Erin goes off and the executives decline to talk any more.

Later on, Voight talks with the suspects, they have hostages and demanded things that they want in 30 minutes. Voight tells them the truth that they can't get it in that amount of time. The suspect tells Voight that he'll take out a hostage if their demands aren't meant. When Voight got a feeling after that conversation, he goes out there without a bulletproof vest and his gun and walks out there.

He talks to them Voight to Suspect, as Voight does best. He ask to see the hostages so he knows that they're safe. They show him one and takes them back. Then Voight starts talking and with an earpiece, Erin tells him the story of these guys.

Voight talks to one of them and walks a bit back near the open, which gave Halstead a clear shot to shoot the suspect. And after that Voight takes the other one down after the guy gave him a couple of hits.

But with these guys caught there's still one more that's out there. And it's a younger suspect that they're after. Burgess found out that she cleared the suspect because he didn't have gun residue on him. They got the idea of who the suspect is going after.

They get to the executive's board meeting where they search the place for the suspect. Erin goes by herself into through the kitchen and in the halls until the suspect puts a gun on her head. Erin talks to him and from what I got I think she took it behind too far when she tells him to shoot her. Bold but smart because the suspect wouldn't do it.

After that Erin just left and we see her talking with her mother again at the bar. As Bunny gives Erin her drink, she starts talking about an old boyfriend that she use to go out with long ago. Well, that turned out to be bad news as they went to his apartment and well, let's just say that there were drugs on the table.

Erin has really gone to the dark side. She blames herself for Nadia's death. We'll get a bit more next week of where she's going and what she's probably going to do. She might rethink her career. Who knows?

Overall I enjoyed this episode. I was at time on the edge of my seat. There were some tense moments in this episode. For one, Erin and telling that guy to shoot her. The way she was telling him I had no idea if she was playing him or telling him to do it.

It felt kind of weird seeing that Burgess and Atwater switch spots this week. Burgess hopes that she stays with the team but soon Atwater will be cleared from his accident last week and will be back with Intelligence and Burgess back with Roman.

Overall I give this episode a 8/10. IT was very good.

Next week is the season finale of Chicago PD. It's one finale that we can't miss at all. Along with Mysteries of Laura and Law & Order SVU, it's literally called Season Finale Wednesday.

You can catch the season finale of Chicago PD next Wednesday at 10/9c on NBC.

Look I'ts Supergirl!!!





Checkout the trailer for Supergirl that will come to CBS on Monday nights this November.

I'm very much liking it so far. I can't wait to see where this story will be going. Calista Flockhart looks amazing and totally badass as Cat Grant, Kara's boss.


Melissa Benoist looks very cool and interesting as Kara Zor-El. She looks a bit like Barbara Gordon, which I hope those two meet later on if this series goes far.

Jimmy Olsen is in this series as well. And is best friends with Superman that he gives Kara the blanket that came with him when he was a baby in that space shuttle, which will turn into Supergirl's cape.

I'm looking forward to this series. This will be on the same time as Gotham that's on FOX but the difference is that at least we get to see the superhero. As I said before I can't wait to see where this series will go. What villains will she face and issues that will follow.

This show will be on my list to watch this fall and probably on my DVR.

Supergirl debut on Monday nights this fall to CBS.

UPDATE: CBS has announced that the series premiere will air Monday, Oct. 26 at 8:30/7:30c right after an episode of "Big Bang Theory" and then will move to it's regular time Monday, Nov. 2nd at 8/7c.

Realizing and Wondering: Chicago Fire "Spartacus" Season Finale


In the season finale of Chicago Fire, there are twists and turns, a few surprises, and a cliffhanger with us asking one question. Let's take a look.

Since Rice had come to House 5,1, there has been tension between Truck and Squad; Otis thinks that Rice has been ducking during scenes, and Sevride doesn't like him since Rice is one of his best long-time friends. 

During a call about gas leaking in the house, Squad goes in when the place is unreliable and could explode. They go in, and Otis also goes in and turns off the gas. Severide gets in and out quickly. The elderly lady who lives there and her dog are also there. 

After, Boden was not too pleased with what happened. Things get a bit intense between Squad and Truck, and as they return to the house, Otis decides to sit at Squad's table. 

That pissed off Severide and the Squad, but they left to get gas for the truck. Casey wasn't too pleased with what the rest were doing. But they were taking a stand. Cruz seemed to be and didn't join until Otis told him to sit with them. 

Meanwhile, Casey talks with Boden, along with Antonio and Voight Ab, outgoing undercover, to bring down Jack and his prostitute trafficking. This is after their first attempt, which went well. Boden allowed it and shook hands with each other. But not watching out; someone was watching them from a distance, Jack. 

Casey goes back to the club and talks to Jack. He doesn't seem pleased at all. They talk, and Jack wants to know if he's been talking with PD about anything. After Casey gives him his world, he doesn't enjoy it. They shake hands, and Jack tells Casey to come back tomorrow. But as Katia was going to walk Casey out, Jack wanted to speak with her.

Chillie and Herrmann's product has finally been made. Chilies Champagne was a hit at the house, giving Herrmann an idea of who to sponsor it. Scottie P...n. This might be Scottie's second appearance on a Chicago-based TV series since ER during season two. 

After a heated talk with Casey, Severide discovers that Rice had lied about the hihasroken mask. Kelly conf confronts Rice with Boden. Rick explains that he's scared of losing, which might be okay but isn't. So Rice is gone, and a surprise announcement comes that Cruz is now a member of Squad. Shocking, right? Wait, there's more.

After a call about a warehouse fire, everyone is on deck. Otis is now the driver for Truck 81. Two firefighters and two workers are trapped. When Dawson goes in, one is out the window; she doesn't escape.
She dragged the other victim, but soon, she would be out of oxygen. Boden boldly moves to go back in there and save not just Dawson but Severi, who was there to save Dawson. Then Severide's oxygen ran out. Trying to stay alive, they take slips from the water hose, but soon, the fire chief decides to shut down the hose and hose the building.  

Cruz makes a bold stand, so he threatens what he does. He does, but Boden gets to Dawson and Severide on time and gets out safe. 
Asafelye'se team returned to the house, and the Fire Captain awaited the firefighter who threatened a chief. Cruz admitted, but then Otis followed by everyone else. It was a real Spartacus moment. 

After that t, there was a party at Molly's. Everyone was celebrating until Chile and Herrmann saw the commercial for their product, which wasn't good. Someone else stole her idea. But Herrmann calmed her down and encouraged her not to give up. This might be a good case for Chicago Law to come in. 



As the party continued, Dawson, who hadn't been feeling well, didn't like the smell of pickles. But she realized, and we all learned, something was up. She goes back home and takes a pregnancy test. When she sees the results, he runs to Casey's place, where the door opens. She goes in and sees that everything is dark; there seems to be a fight with a lamp on the floor, and he sinks running water.

But she soon finds Katia on the field. The shocking part is, Where is Casey? That's the question we want to know. This isn't suitable for Dawsey right now.

,tion: Brett and Roman hook up after she had an intense event during that warehouse fire. 

Overall, this was one of the best season finales. At least no one went into a building, and it exploded. We don't have to worry about everyone but just one, Casey. There were excellent tied ends to some storylines; more interesting ones will come when the new season starts. I give this episode 9/10. 

As for the overall season, this was their best season. The writing was superb, hitting every note a television show could hit. We started with an emotional death to trying to move on; relationships take a tumble, one decides to leave, and a shocker in one connection. This was a perfect 10/10.

I know that show fans are happier that the new season starts in November. I know it's a long wait, but the waiting makes it better—more hype. Heck, start talking about the show throughout the summer to get folks time to explore the exhibition. 


You can catch the new season of Chicago Fire in November.

Avengers Age of Ultron






If there's one word to describe the Avengers: Age of Ultron it would have to be INCREDIBLE!!! This second Avengers movie comes on strong and leaves me wanting more. I literally didn't want it to end.


First off there should now be a massive fan base for James Spader. The guy was amazingly awesome as Ultron. I loved every freakin scene that Ultron was in and yet I didn't want him to die. I felt bad for the character.


We each got to see each Avenger's back story, mostly Black Widow, which is one of two of my favorite Avengers characters along with Captain America. This is just me but I think that Cap and Widow would make a good couple. It was just what I've seen and feel after Winter Solider.

The best scene of the whole movie was when the Hulk went bonkers and Iron Man had to calm him down. Putting on the Hulkbuster, it turned out to be a real rumble in the jungle. Loved when Iron Man kept punching Hulk many times and saying "go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep."


And then as he picked him up and begin to fly out, Hulk deferred to a hotel building. After saving the folks in the elevator, Iron Man uses the elevator and hits the Hulk and then punches him in the face. And the look that he gave Iron Man and spit a tooth out. Iron Man quietly says "I'm sorry." The best reaction of the film.

Even before seeing the movie, I learned the Quicksilver was going to die. But if I didn't know about that I would assume that Hawkeye would die because we saw his family and that this was going to be his last time in battle. Usually that's a give away.


Also I can't leave out the first scene of the movie, the fight sequence. Oh my god!! That was totally freaking amazing. I've never seen anything like it, maybe on a animated movie or so but not like this. LOVED IT!!

Overall, I love the film a lot. I even saw it a second time with m brother and we couldn't stop talking about it. He's much of a Marvel fan than I am as I'm between both Marvel and DC Comics type of guy.

I can't wait for Captain America: Civil War. My brother think it's going to be amazing and hopes to see Spiderman in it. I can't wait either.



I thought it was a great movie. I give it a 9/10. I really couldn't find any issue with the movie at all. I think that this might be the best Avengers out of the first one. As I said before I can't wait to see the next movie.
