Decision Disorder: Kevin Can Wait "Sleep Disorder"
Last night's episode of Kevin Can Wait might have been hilarious at time but I think that the title of this episode seems misleading.
When Kevin accidentally rubbed Icy Hot for his arm into his arm pit, he left the burn badly that beg Donna to switch sides on the bed. The next morning, he realizes that Donna has a shorter route to the bathroom than he does, not to mention that everything around the house was under her decision. So Kevin decides to talk it out with her that they should make decisions together from furniture to having a beanbag chair in the bathroom.
When Donna agreed and Kevin went out bring his stuff from the antic and brought it down. Donna saw what Kevin brought from the George Foreman grill to the recliner chair to even his own legs and abs workout pants, which I have no clue what the hell it was, but served a purpose for Kevin when the pants put a ton of pressure on his legs and couldn't stop it. After cutting his pants, he tells Donna the truth that none of anything around the house is something that he decided to place.
Also the B-Story was when Chale was emotional watching a cooking show and had Donna, Kendra, Sara and Jack all thinking that it was weird. But when Uncle Kyle gets involved, he tells him about being emotional and turned him into an unemotional guy when they watched "Ole Yeller" (I believe).
Kendra confronts him about it and tells him that she wants him to express his emotionas but not in a way that it's wired. SO they hugged and he let out his emotions about the dog when Kevin pops out and thought that Kendra broke things off. Kevin offered to buy him a ticket back to England but Kendra tells him that they haven;t broken anything off, but still Kevin wants to buy him a ticket back to England.
This was a good episode that had me laughing at times. The A-story was good with Kevin and Donna. There were scenes when Kevin got scared of how Donna looked when sleeping, there was when he and his guys were going around the house looking at what Donna has placed.
I did like his idea of the TV placed on the ceiling, until it fell off. Not the best idea but good one: watch TV while laying down. I don't want to pop my head up while laying down.The B-Story was okay. Cartwright was good, but not as hilarious as he was in the pilot. The only issue was the title of the episode "Sleep Disorder" there was no sign that someone had a sleep disorder or anything with sleep. It should have been called Decision Disorder or something.
I give this episode a 6/10.
You can catch Kevin Can Wait Monday nights at 8:30/7:30c on CBS.

Chicago Med "Soul Care" Season Premiere
Last season's #1 New Medical Drama returns and the season premiere of Chicago Med jumps into Season 2 with a rush!!
The episode opens up with Manning in the helicopter with two patients a father and his pregnant daughter that were in a car accident. Halstead rushes up to help and take control as he is the new chief attending in the ED. Manning puts a chest tube in the mother and rushes her to CT.
Later Rhodes, Halstead and Manning discuses treatment for the woman as what's best for her and the baby as Rhodes thinks putting in a stint will be fine with the baby still in the mother. But they wait, til her father falls and has an MI where Rhodes and Halstead try to save him rush to the CT along with having surgery.
Under a teaching mentor, Rhodes is introduce to Dr. Latham, who says that Rhodes wasn't his first choice to have on his team. The two butted heads during surgery with the pregnant woman's father on which vein to take for the guy's heart. When Rhodes give him his opinion of what Downey would do, the new guy flipped out and threw a pan in the OR freaking everyone, including me too. This is going to be a great season for the two of them.
After the surgery, Rhodes gets Manning to okay on putting a stint in the mother's heart. While performing the baby's heart was dipping and soon had to perform an emergency C-section and after that the mother and the baby was well. Unlike her father as his health was fail pretty fast. Halstead and Rhodes performed CPR and did everything but the guy was gone, until as they walked away the guy's heart was beating and soon the daughter came and the two had about a minute or two as he saw his granddaughter and soon passed away. Talk about your miracles, right?
Choi was dealing with his new role as Chief Resident of the ED and he tries his new way of patient care which wasn't working at all. But in the end he was gong to go back to the old style and as Halstead told him the nurses run the department better.
Dr. Charles gets Reese to come back and take the resident spot in his department and takes a case of a 15 year old girl who seemed to try to kill herself with a power pain medicine. Reese goes in and talks to her and when she finally tells her about a rash that she has and had check it, she freaked out and thought that she was going to die. Reese takes a skin sample and gets it tested to reveal that it was an fungus infection. It was a good start for Reese as she's back at Med.
For April, she still doesn't think she's good after having TB and taking meds for the next five months. But after seeing a patient that came in with injuries who is HIV kissing his wife, things kind of settled down for her.
I loved how the new season kicked off, right to the first trauma in the episode. The pregnant daughter and her father storyline just took my breath away, both of them facing heart trouble and not to mention that the father dies and comes back just for a while to meet her granddaughter was touching. Also I enjoy watching Halstead get tough on Jeff Clarke, even though it is personal at times. And Rhodes and Latham is going to be an interesting team this season.
Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.
You can catch Chicago Med Thursday nights at 9/8c on NBC.
Girls Day Out: The Good Place "Chapter 3: Tahani Al Jamil"
As Eleanor tries to be a good person, she thinks of that note that was slipped through her door and who could it have been. She has one person in mind and even if she hated her, she'll spend the day figuring her out.
Eleanor has a pretty good idea who has sent her that note that was slipped through her door and that person came in bring a nice planet for her house, Tahani Al Jamil. Of course, Eleanor never had like her from the beginning but she'll prove to Chidi that Tahani isn't who she said she is to be and she'll prove it by bring her some fruit, pears. But when that failed, she offered to help Tahani to go around the neighborhood and make sure everyone is in the good spirit.
But to Eleanor, there was no bad thing about Tahani, not even her full name which means "Congratulations Beautiful" and she was a model too. When the two went around bring scones to people and Tahani getting complements, the two went back to Tahani's house and had tea. But just before Eleanor left, she sneaks around the place and found her diary. and takes it back home.
When Eleanor comes back home, Chidi is there not to happy after Michael tried to get him interested in another hobby and that his 3600 page book stinks. But both Eleanor and Chidi gave each advise to each other, she telling him who cares what Michael thinks and also opens up to her about her attitude towards good/happy people. Chidi get her to turn in that book and when she does, she hears Tahani crying. She tells Eleanor about how she thinks that Jianyu isn't right for her.
Chidi tells Michel that he wants to keep working on academics and to write his book. The next morning, Eleanor wakes up and sees the plant that Tahani has given to her blossom back to form after yesterday's bad naming calling lead to it dying slowly and burned into flames. Later that day, Michael, Tahani and Janet stopped by and talked to Eleanor as Tahani thought that she would be great helping Michael what caused the strange events.
As Eleanor got back home, she sees another note, thinking that she left it but it read to meet them at the Time Square that night. She gets there and soon it's no other than Jianyu, who speaks to her (some monk, right?). She's shock, but even more shocking is that not only does he think she doesn't belong in The Good Place, but he doesn't think him either and doesn't know how he got here
I'd really enjoyed this episode, mostly the B-storyline with Chidi, Michael and Janet. It was hilarious watching Janet go from different kinds of personality modes each time we seem them at a different place for Chidi's new job. Not to mention the plant dying off in two steps. After three episodes in one week I've really enjoyed how we get a sudden cliffhanger, like the knock at the door, the note at the door and Jianyu saying he doesn't belong and ask Eleanor for help.
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
You can catch The Good Place Thursdays at 8:30/7:30c on NBC.

Finding Her: The Blacklist "Esteban" Season Premiere
The Blacklist is back!! The most anticipated season is here, and it starts on a high-driven note.
We pick off right from where the finale left off; Red is looking around the room, seeing blood and picturing what happened in the events of Liz, Angus, and Tom being kidnapped. So, Demebe gets a call on the location of one person there, and so they take off.
We see Red and the crew walking into a nightclub in slow-motion fashion (which is beautiful enough to capture Red's emotional state). They get to the back, where a miss performing CPR on a cop, but by the time Red wants to talk to him, he is dead. So the next best thing was for him to perform a mess operation of cutting the guy's head off. Yes, you read that correctly: Reddingotn cut off the dead guy's head. AWESOME, right?!
He takes the head and shows it to one of his friends, who takes him to a group of cops that are playing porkpokerd asks if they know who the person is, they'll get a cut of the money, but one didn't want to talk, so he got shot and so did the rest of the three until the last one spoke of who he knows.
When Red and Dembe found where Liz was, they headed out to what looked like an automatic shop. Red and Dembe search around and find a room with a glass window, where he hears Kirk behind the glass along with Red. Kirk and Red have a standoff moment; Rehe tries to break the glass with his gun but doesn't seem to do anything. But Cuban police were coming, and Red and Dembeleftf,t but not before Liz told Red that he needed to search for Angus, but also Red said to her that he'd check for her.
Red figures that he needs h help. Call one FBI to find Esteb, a blacklister who is a double agent in Cuba for the USA, but Cuba doesn't know. Esteban is probably one of the scariest-looking guys ever blind, and yet he takes his plastic eyes out for his prisoners to hold. YUCK!
Cooper sent Ressler down there and met with Esteban at his place. The two had a nice chat, and Ressler called on Red to have the two talk. Reed asked him to search for a girl that had been taken (Liz) and the baby. It was later that he found where Liz was being held.
Meanwhile, Liz and Kirk were getting to share a lot. He says he's her father, but she'd buy it. Soon, Angus is brought back to Liz, and she plans to escape Thylacine's place and is caught.
Tom, on the other hand, is the Cuba tour, if you know what I mean. Kidnapped, he was taken by the Cuban Frankenstein (if you will) to another guy who was going to take him out. If that guy thought he was going to have a lot of fun with Tom, he sure hell doesn't know what the hell he was getting into. Tom knocks him out and kills him, but after, he tells Kirk, who was on the phone at the time, that he is coming for his family and an army is coming.
Red and the team get to the spot where Liz is and where Angus is. Dembe looks in the house and heads upstairs til Frankenstein takes him down and beats him til he leaves. Kaplan, who is not on Red's good side then, sees a woman grabbing baby blankets and stuff, finds her with Angus, and takes her out. Way to go, Kaplan!!
Red is, races out to the back and sees the plane leaving, with Liz looking down from the window, all in disbelief and sadness. The camera angle of Red's reaction was perfect in that scene, shocked and lopsided.
The good news is that Red had Angu, but the bad news is that they lose Angus, too, when Frankenstein runs them over. He takes Angus away, but not until he kisses Kaplan with his finger on her lips. What the hell was that for?
OH MY GOD!!! This took my breath away from the moment I ted to the end of the episode. This was the season premiere that The Blacklist had done yet. It was so good, from the acting to the writing and the idirectionalloot. I'm happy they didn't have a trailer and promos for this season, but only small clips with previous clips.
So, what will happen?LOLooksooks, like the haunt to save, Liz is on. What will happen to Mr. Kaplan (to be honest, the dishonest doesn't want her to go)? t it looks like Red might kill her. If anybody agrees that, I think we would want Tom vs Frankenstein fighting it out again, right? We all know that Tom can kick that dude's butt.
Overall, I give this episode a 10/10.
You can catch The Blacklist Thursday nights at 10/9c on NBC
