Blindspot "A Stray Howl"
The question still lingers and will be for quite some time, who is Jane Doe? After capturing the man that was going to blow up the Statue of Liberty apparently died before talking to the FBI about what he knows or who Jane is.
The only clue that they have is a mysterious doctor who is actually the mysterious breaded man who we see in the flashbacks of Jane's. But soon Weller and the team move on when Patterson found another clue in the tattoos. A clue that would lead to the beginning to a hunt to stop Major Arther Gibson, a mad man and a secret military drone.
Gibson uses the military's own drone to seek revenge because he had killed while operating a drone int he past. And not to mention that Gibson kidnapped a friend's daughter for ransom too.
Weller and Jane go after him at an abandoned warehouse where a shoot out comes between Gibson and Weller. But the really cool scene came when Jane was car chasing Gibson.
Along with this, we got to learn a bit of Weller like his sister and her child are staying with him for a bit. His father is in jail because he was accused for kidnapping a missing girl that Weller thinks it Jane Doe.
Jane gets flashbacks of killing a nun in a church. Also failing during a shooting practice with the mysterious breaded man.
But by the end, as Jane was about to take a shower, she gets a surprise from what looks like the mysterious breaded man.
This episode was simply astounding. There were excellent scenes from the car chasing to the flashbacks. Learning a little bit more of each of the main characters from Weller and Jane. Could Jane Doe be that of the missing girl? She doesn't look the age that the missing child would be.
It was well written and just kept everything on the go go go.
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
Here's next week's promo.

Sunday Night Premiere & Series Finale
Sunday night was a night of premieres and a series finale to one historic television series.
Dozerman doesn't want any playful or wasteful of work time in his department, He not only suffers from one heart attack but two and dies after his second day on the job.
Meanwhile for Holt, his assignment for his new job was to help out decide what name fits the best for their mascot, a pigeon. But I couldn't get enough of Bureau Chief Wuntch making Holt's first day a living hell. Even when Holt had to be the mascot and the look he had when the head was put on, was just hilarious.
Also can't leave out that Jake and Amy are in a relationship but trying to follow the rules but also breaking them as well. Trying not the let others know that they are together just seemed more trouble than just telling them. Even if it did cause Captain Dozerman to die of a heart attack.
But with Dozerman gone, a new Captain is set and his name is Pembroke.
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
You can catch Brooklyn Nine-Nine Sunday nights at 8:30/7:30c on FOX
In the finale, Grissom, Wiliows and Brass comes back to the series for one last investigation. A series of bombers are attacking around Las Vegas and it brings everyone together to find a familiar face who's the suspect, Dr. Kessler.
In order to find her, they bring back Grissom to help. And boy does the sparks go off when Sidle and him seen each other for the first time in awhile.
It turns out that it wasn't Kessler who had sent the bombers. But a former patient of her's who grow too emotional to her thinking that he was the one for her. But with Grissom's smart tactic on talking to him down.
The series ends with new chapters, goodbyes and happy ends. D.B. is moving to DC for next week's season premiere of CSI Cyber. Wiliow is staying in Vegas and hopes to take the director of the department if Sadle wasn't going to take it.
But as for Sara and Grissom. they are out to sea on their adventure together, where they belong.
I was never a fan of the original series. But i did catch a few episodes from time to time. I will admit that it's a landmark series and just like Law & Order and even ER the series will live in history.
And now the series lives on in CSI Cyber, which again premieres next Sunday at 10/9c on CBS.

BONES | Speechless | FOX BROADCASTING
Bones returns this Thursday and it's one that will leave you speechless.
Booth is missing, but are these remains his own?
Bones returns Thursday, Oct. 1st at 8/7c on FOX
"Just the Same Old, Same Old" Doctor Who "The Witch's Familiar "
"The Witch's Familiar" didn't disappoint. Here's my recap/review!
First, how did Clara and Missy stay alive after being exterminated by the Daleks? They were transported thanks to the timey wimey that they carry. The Doctor always is one step ahead of everyone.
In the beginning, I didn't know if I should trust Missy, but after this episode, I didn't after what she had Clara do and near the end. But I couldn't help but like her because she's a bit wacky and wrong, and who doesn't like a character like that? I do!
For heaven's sake, Missy had Clara in an actual Dalek—a little familiar to that part.
The conversation with Darvos was brilliantly well-written and performed. I thought they were having a real moment when Darvos had his hand on the Doctor and showed his eyes. But that turned blank due to being a trap to take the Doctor's regeneration energy and use it for himself and the Daleks to make them strong.
The problem is that there are a bunch of Daleks underneath the facility that caused destruction. Trying to leave, the Doctor spots the Dalek, who has Clara inside. He asks it why it's coming and threatens if it says that Clara is dead. Missy, on the other hand, tells him that that's the Dalek that killed Clara.
I was on the edge of my seat, hoping that there was some way for Clara to get out of there so the Doctor didn't have to kill her. The word "mercy" was spoken, and the Doctor told it to open its body. Clara is in there, and the Doctor's look expresses that he wanted to kill Missy but instead told her to run.
Run she did and was caught by the Daleks.
In the end, the Doctor returned and rescued the young Darvos from the mine's hands and told him the meaning of mercy, which came in handy before.
This episode had a lot of great moments. From the Doctor and Darvos to the adventures of Clara and Missy, who didn't like watching the Doctor ride on Darvos' chair? That was the best entrance to a bunch of Daleks I've ever seen.
The best quote of the episode is, "Oh, the same old, same old, just the Doctor and Clara Oswald in the TARDIS. It was the best!!!
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
You can catch Doctor Who on Saturday nights on BBC America.

The Stakes Are Higher: Thursday Night Premiere Night
Heroes Reborn: "Brave New World" & "Odessa"
We've been waiting for this premiere since the surprising short trailer came out during the 2014 Winter Olympics. Heroes was a breakout hit when it premiered 10 years ago but dwindled in ratings after being on the air for four seasons. Now the show is back with a reboot look too it.The series starts out with both humans and Evos ( people who are evolution with powers) coming together until a bomb was drop and destroyed humans and evos but it caused a lot of trouble when a year later that anyone who's an Evo are being hunted down.
We get a familiar introduction to the Evos and other characters just like the first season of the series. Noah Bennent is back with a fresh new life but lost his daughter in the bombing. Seems to have forgotten the things that happen before Claire's death (or is she really dead?). When Quentin follows Noah and discuss about the Evos and how they need to save the world. They soon work together to try to get information on one person Emily Walker.
There are some characters that are interesting to watch. One is Tommy Clark who has powers to teleport people to where he is thinking . Along with his crush interest Emily. And also Miko Otomo who has almost the same storyline as Hiro from the regular series of how she's meant to save the world and that she's a character in the comic book as a ninja.
I shouldn't forget that Zachary Levi is playing a great bad ass character. Levi's character Luke Collins, is a dark and seeking revenge the Evos that have killed his son. Hunting down with his wife shooting them down one by one.
This series brings in how one society hates the other and wants them gone for good. And with an event that's soon to be coming, the world will need these heroes soon.
I was amazed from the characters at times. This show seems a lot better from when I last watched the series.
Overall, I give this two hour premiere a 9/10.
You can catch Heroes Reborn Thursday nights at 8/7c on NBC
The Player: "Pilot"
The buzzed about series, The Player gives a lot of action pack adventures of the criminal world of how it's about one thing gambling.When a cool, edge and handsome FBI agent becomes a security expert, Alex Kane, stops an attacker from killing a high profile resident and soon loses his ex-wife because of a set up. But when a the Dealer Cassandra King comes to his rescue not once but twice and takes him the Mr. Johnson, the pit boss.
Mr. Johnson played by Wesley Snipes, offers Kane a job to be the player in a high stakes crime stopper. There are people that place bets on whether he succeeds or not. The only issue that he can't use any help expect from Cassandra who by the way is one of the best characters in the series along with Snipes.
As I said this series is a high stakes action crime drama. There's more action and some dialogue and some mystery to whether who killed Alex's ex wife and adds to what does Cassandra have any connection to being with his ex.
From the pilot, it was very much enjoyable and very entertaining. I love awesome action scenes in series and this one doesn't hold back at all.
Overall, I give the pilot episode a 8/10.
You catch The Player Thursday nights at 10/9c on NBC

Heroes: Reborn: "Show is Designed for New and Old Viewers Alike"
Tonight is the premiere of the 2 hour event of Heroes: Reborn at 8/7c on NBC.
During a Q&A on Twitter I asked Tim Kring for those who have never seen the series, can they still follow the original series before the new series starts.
He replied, "Abolutely. Former fans will enjoy nods to the past. But show is designed for new and old viewers alike."
I can't wait for the series to start. I know that I will probably miss tonight's live premiere but I'll be watching it late tonight anyway.
You can catch the premiere of Heroes: Reborn tonight at 8/7c on NBC.
