Another weekend catch up on shows that I've missed watching this week but watched it this weekend. Here are this week's weekend catch up recaps.
Stitchers: "I See You"
This week's episode deals with a bit of a Rear Window type of thing when a victim is murdered by looking snooping with his telescope.
When Kristen and the gang look into it, they find that the key is whatever he was spying on. They do his spying and spot a couple of interesting and thoughtful suspects but they turned out to be not.
When Kristen returns to stitching the victim one more time, she spots a clothing store with the owner given a code by using the mannequin. While Linus and Camille are eyeing the view, Kristen and Cameron take a look at the apartment across that had the window curtains closed. They can't seem to find the room number until it was hidden beyond the wall.
Kristen finds passports and they figured that it was an illegal trafficking. As the van pulls in, Kristen and Cameron get there before he leaves and Kristen gave suspect the look suggestion just as he did with the victim.
A case of snooping where you shouldn't be snooping. This episode was fun and some what predictable at times. Like the couple that were arguing in their apartment and as they went in another room, blood was splattered on the wall.
Another thing to know about in this episode: Cameron has nightmares and is trying to prevent the events of what happen last time. It's something that he doesn't seem to let it go like Maggie.
Also not to mention that there has been a spy going in and Stitchers and out. Caused a little problem with the systems when Maggie was along. Who could this person be? Could it be Marta? Kristen's father?
Overall I give this episode a 7/10.
You can catch "Stitchers" Tuesday nights at 9/8c on ABC Family.
Royal Pains: "The Prince of Nucleotides"
In this episode of "Royal Pains" Hank treats a patient who happens to be transgender. When the patient suffers from DVT (deep vein thrombus), Hank takes her and treats her. On the way, she tries to be a girl and soon later realize that she has a blood disorder and can't get any of the hormonal therapy.But when someone punches her at camp, Hank's there to help calm her down and treat her. At the end, he goes see her play that she'd choreographed and with a little more research, Hank offered her an idea if she wants to take hormonal therapy. She agrees and hopefully her parents would agree too.
Meanwhile, Evan builds a fundraiser hoping to gets to donations to support the genetic research. But when Jeremiah's old college friend stops by, it's not just to catch up with old times.
Evan and Paige comes to thinking of adoption and met with a mother who's expecting. Soon, after an awkward meet and greet, they get a call from that mother and she chooses them to adopt her baby.
And not to mention that Divya and Prince Quami are hitting it off quite well. Even though Divya is trying to make things workout with her child's father. She's grown closer to Quami as he is too.
This episode was well told and well written with a great message about transgender.
Vanessa Williams guest starred in this episode as a millionaire who Evan wants her donation. After Hank visits her to an appointment about sleeping pills. She also bid for a one night date with Hank, who Evan planned for the fundraiser.
Overall I give this episode a 9/10.

Complications: "Onset"
In this week's episode of "Complications" Gretchen gets in some more trouble than she assumes and asked Ellison for help.
After trying to help a beaten patient get her stuff from her boyfriend, things gets complicated when the boyfriend pulls a gun on her and her friend. But the Gretchen's friend, who's a big high, tackles the guy and breaks his finger, Gretchen is overwhelmed from what had happen.
When Gretchen takes the patient's things, the boyfriend tries to tell the truth but than pisses her off and she hits him with a waffle iron. He lands on the glass table where he's cut and not speaking.
She calls Ellison for help, when he gets there the guy isn't breathing so he pulls a piece of glass out of his throat.
With this going on, Ellison has an appointment with his client's friends. When they met, they soon met with the boy's father who tells the doctor that he'll treat his son as along as he say he does. Getting a bit too much for Ellison, there's even more than that.
When Bridget gets a visitor of a former patient's relative, a sister, about the mishap of the death notice and billing of surgery. She help corrected it and told her how it happen. The sister got upset that her brother killed himself in the hospital under her care. That gave Bridget a whole lot of problems to deal with.
In the meantime, Ellison gets back and finds the boyfriend tied up and soon to lose his finger if he doesn't get any treatment. When Gretchen comes back, they both have a heated argument, but after they
re argument, the boyfriend runs into his car and drives off but soon crashes in the woods.
Ellison tells the guy that he can't tell the police that Gretchen and him did this because if he does, he could be killed the the gang that he works.
That worked and soon Ellison gets back home, brings the milks that his wife asked for and talks to his father, who they have a bad history.
This episode was well thrilling and entertaining. I couldn't get enough of Gretchen and her friend in a tight situation between the boyfriend hurt and the hospital files in review.
Overall this episode was an 8/10.

Graceland: "B-Positive"
In the season premiere of "Graceland" the wait is finally over, is Mike really dead?Well, no and that's the good part. Mike had to pretend that he was dead to capture Sid, who Paige is now trying to capture. She's trying to do what she did wrong and Paul isn't quite happy with her after Mike's accident.
In the meantime, Paul is taking undercover for a case to take down one of the gangs that steals organs. Thinking that he has backup behind him, he goes through one of the worst days probably ever and soon takes it out on the captain.
As Mike recovers, after learning what Paige was doing with Sid, he had to stop it. As Paige was moments away from meeting with Sid, Mike comes and gets Sid running away. After what went down and after last season, Paige puts in her transfer to move out of the house. Paul is fine with it but not the others.
But it wasn't over when Johnny picks Sid up and drives off.
This was a really good start of the new season. It gave that new sense if you haven't seen the series before, this would be a great one to tune in for.
It was thrilling and electrifying. I can't wait to see what comes next this season.
Overall I give this a 8/10.
You can catch "Graceland" Thursday nights at 10/9c on USA Network.
Clipped: "Pilot" & "Dreamers"
TBS has a new comedy series "Clipped" from the creators of "Will & Grace" David Kohan and Max Mutchnick.
The series centers with a group of co-workers that went to high school together but been around different people. But they are barbers at Buzzy's barbershop. The series starts Mike Castle and Ashley Tisdale. They play best friends, who had relationship history in high school but are best friends.
In the pilot AJ gets a call from a sports agent about joining the majors and it gets him excited. But with Ben, the boss of the shop, pressures the gang to quit, AJ steps in and calls it quits . But Danni talks him out and after he quit it, she along with the gang quits too.
It stops Ben from firing anyone and decides to keep everyone and pay the raise in the insurance payment.
In the second episode, AJ still wants to go out for his dream as a ball player. There's a tryout and tells Danni that he's going to try it, but Danni talks him out of it and tells him that dreams die when you reach an age.
After AJ talks to her about dreams, Danni thinks about her dreams about becoming a singer. That lead her to perform for a Diabetes fundraiser. After the gang watches her perform, Charmaine talks to Danni and tells her that she tried AJ the wrong way.
Danni relazines and takes AJ to tryout where he didn't get in but was asked to comeback.
I've watched a few comedy series on TBS from "My Boys" and "Sullivan and Sons." "Clipped" seems to be a simple comedy. There are some funny moments in the show and in these two episodes there were more than a few to get by.
With George Wendt as Buzzy and Reginald VelJohnson as Tommy in the pilot episode. They play gay lovers that probably stand out. Watching two classic 80's stars getting that one moment was hilarious.
Diona Reasonover and Lauren Lapkus are very good and have some hilarious moments. Rayn Pinkston as Ben, resembles the characters as Seth Green.
All in all, "Clipped" is a good show, it's got some humorist moments and some real awkward moments too.
Overall I give the two episodes 6/10.
