High Emotions: Chicago PD "All Cylinders Firing"

I'm just going to say it... give Amy Morton the performer of the week!!!

This episode took the character Platt into a situation that we've never seen in the four seasons of CPD. When Platt gets attacked from an unknown person, Hank and the team goes far and wide to search for the person.

The team looks into those that had threaten Platt. There were things that even the Intelligence Unit didn't know she was doing, like being a security guard at a local liquor store. But it was that they didn't know that she came from a rich father, who had some business go under and still make a lot of money.

When Platt woke up, she gets the news that her father was also attack and died. That look from Platt gave to Erin was a look that has stuck into my memory. And yet she tells Erin and the gang that she doesn't know anyone that would want to attack her or her father, but it's Trudy, as she tells them no, she had that funny look.

When the Intelligence gets a good lead, Burgess tells Platt about a car. Platt knows who it was and leaves Chicago Med and goes after the man, McGregor, who had a hand in one of her father's businesses.

Platt catches him and gets him to cuff him. She takes him into a basement and beats him a few times but soon Voight comes in and tries to get her to tell him about the situation so he can help. I had a feeling that Voight would be coming to help her pulling another go after lead to the others.

From scenes of Hank and Platt in the basement to the final scene of Platt and Mouch at Med, it was literally the best 10 minutes of television I've seen so far. Emotions were set high at the beginning of the episode and emotions were overwhelming at the end. As I said at the beginning of this piece, "give Amy Morton the award for Performer of the Week.

Overall, I give this episode a 10/10.

You can catch Chicago P.D. Wednesday nights at 10/9c on NBC.

Blast to the Past: Timeless "Pilot"

When a time machine has been stolen, the people of a Corporation and Homeland Security send three people, a history professor, a solider and an engineer to stop a mad man from changing the past.

Timeless seems to be one of those shows that ask more questions and only getting some answers. Abigail Spencer plays  Lucy Preston, a history professor who didn't get the tenure at a university and her mother is dying. She gets a knock from Homeland Security to come down and help after Garacia Flynn (Goran Visnjic) steals the time machine that really looks like an eye.

Lucy meets with Master Sergeant Wyatt Logan former US Army Delta Force and Rufus Carlin, engineer and coder and the three had to follow where Flynn went and that place was the night of the Hindenburg disaster.

The threes tries to find Flynn and his gang and when they learned that they're going to bring down the Hindenburg. But when they get there, the Hindenburg didn't blow up in flames like it was suppose to in the history books had said. No Flynn had a didn't idea, this one was to blow it up and kill everyone in it.

Even though Wyatt stopped the bomb from going off, the Hindenburg still went down, this time from one of Flynn's men firing a shot, probably the same people that had in the history book including a journalist that Wyatt seems to look like his late wife.

Flynn and Lucy gets to have a nice chat. He tells her that she doesn't have a clue why she's doing this but it's her destiny. Plus he shows her the book that he's using that has her handwriting, the question is how did he get it?

By the time, Lucy, Wyatt and Rufus get back, things to back to the same expect that Lucy's mother is not on her death bed and her younger sister is no longer alive. The three comes back and sees that Flynn has gone back this time to another history moment.

This shows does have that feel of The Blacklist since John Davis and John Fox are executive producers in this Eric Kripke and Shawn Ryan created series. I do love some of the characters, like Spencer's and Rufus seems to be the comic relief character. Loved it when he told a Jersey cop that he better live long enough to see Michael Jordan, Michael Jackson and Mike Tyson and not to mention Barack Obama change the world.

Visnjic is pretty good as a villain, but I want to wait to see how he does more in future episodes. To me he's still Dr. Luka Kovac  from ER in my heart.

It seems that when no matter what the event will happen no matter the outcome. We saw the Hindenburg in the first scene go down from what actually happen to when Flynn and Lucy went back the Hindenburg still went down and the same people were killed. I hope that's not what each episode will do.

I've really enjoyed it. It's a show that I'll be tuning in each week. I'm a history buff myself and can't get enough of history when I was in high school and college.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch Timeless Monday nights at 10/9c on NBC.

Bonding Buddies: Kevin Can Wait "Chore Weasel"

When Kevin doesn't want to wait for a package for his wife to get home, he gets someone that does in this hilarious episode of Kevin Can Wait.

When Dana gets Kevin to stay home and wait for a package that she's getting, instead of playing football with the guys, he gets someone from an app to come over and fill in as he gets his fun time with the guys.

Kevin uses the Chore Weasel app, it's like an for someone that needs help with chores. The funny thing is that even though Kevin only uses Blake, the Chore Weasel, for one thing, Dana loved what Kevin did and asked him to do more chores. That gave Kevin the idea to use Blake more and more but soon it grew more than just a job between one another as they grew closer as best friends.

The one person that knows of Kevin's scam is Chale and he asked Kevin if he could use Blake for something too, but denied. But soon, Dana and Kendra gave it more thought that Kevin was doing a lot of chores and actually doing them. So they gave Chale the bad cop good cop treatment and soon spelled the beans on Kevin.

After Kevin takes Blake to an Islanders game, the two really had a good time until Dana comes along and gets Kevin to spell the beans to her. After that Kevin and Blake was going to say their goodbyes until Blake charges Kevin for the game and the ride and totally freaked him out and also charged him with their argument. After that the two seem to broke off their friendship.

It got funny and weird when Dana asked Kevin if he heard anything from Blake and with a disappointment look, he tells her that he's Facebook requested him and got nothing. But when a beep from his phone came, he check and it wasn't Blake. Dana tried to cheer him up but ran upstairs like a teenage girl.

This episode was hilarious and better than last week's that's for sure. It had some really good jokes from the sliver alert (Amber Alert for old people), the pain is only the sign of weakness, the football game and even the last scene when Kevin ran up stairs.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch Kevin Can Wait Monday nights at 8:30/7:30c on CBS.
