The Truth and Flight: The Blacklist Redemption: "Boreals 301" & "Hostage"

"Boreals 301"

When Tom and the team face terror, they'll have to go up in the sky to capture them in the act.

When a group of military men of thieves try to steal classified material, Tom and Solomon goes undercover to find them before it's too late and they'll have to find these men on an airplane. Things get a bit dicey for the two guys as things went south. But they didn't know that the classified would be a person, who happens to be kidnapped by someone who wants to win her back.

As Tom saves the plane from going down, Solomon jumped out with one of their men and tries to get him to speak. Just watching Solomon talk is like watching Reddington tell a story as it's just well entertained.

Tom and the team finds Solomon and soon traced the others as well, saving the classified person.

Meanwhile, Howard gets Tom to find one of Scottie's folder that has information of the mission of Whitehall. Tom couldn't find it at first but after the mission when he tries to talk to her, he spots a comic book and soon leaves and buys the same comic book and uses it to decoded the message left on there which proves Howard's theory that Scottie is a bad person but by the time Tom figured it out Solomon captured Howard.

 This was a very good episode. This was a very well entertained, well written too. I couldn't get enough of Solomon and Tom scenes as they're just filled the screen with memorable moments. I'm still in the middle of who to trust now that it seems Howard is telling the truth about Scottie. I feel like a ping pong ball that hasn't gone out yet. Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

"Hostages"

With a family held hostage to get someone back, Tom and the gang must save and bring the person the kidnappers want back. But that was just the tip of the ice berg here as there's more.

A wealthy family gets kidnapped from professional kidnappers and for exchange the leader wanted one of the guys that was captured by the government. Tom and the team try to do what they do to satisfied them til they find the guy they are asking for and who they were asking for was a man who happens to be the kidnapper's brother.

Tom find the man and tries talking to the man to come and that he'll be safe. As they make the exchange, Tom tries to follow them but after losing them, they found a better way of tracking as the kid took their cell phone.

Tom, Nez and Solomon made they're way into the warehouse where the guy was being held up and the shocking thing was that the man that coordinated this was the family's lawyer, what a twist. They swept in and saved their guy and the man's brother helped too.

But this episode really took off when Tom tries his best to save Howard from the hospital that Scottie. Tom breaks in and tries to get Howard out but he gets caught and soon Scottie figures out who's working with Howard and got him out that she even went to Howard and demanded answers about Tom til he tells her that Tom is her son. She freaks and tries calling off the hit from Solomon on Tom and after the third time telling Solomon he does.

This episode was so so good, mostly because of how Scottie learns Tom is working with Howard and that he's her son. I thought that was so good and eve intense as well. Of course, it was great to see Cooper on the show, I can't wait to see him when The Blacklist returns. I thought this was Jansen's best performance on the show so far. The writing was good for that storyline. Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

It's Never Easy Being a Green Superhero: Powerless "Green Furious"

When Emily goes to her first board meeting, she speaks out about her product that's about to get the ax and gets the latest superhero to sponsor it.

In "Green Furious" Emily gets invited to her first board meeting, but when she speaks up about her product that's about to get the ax, she tells them that she can get Green Fury to sponsor the product. The head of the board agrees after Green Fury came after Emily used the Green Call Button that she got after saving her during the cold open.

Emily thinks that having Green Fury do the commercial would help not only her but Fury as well after the newspaper headlines really attacking her over the breakup of her and The Olympian. Heck, they were even together on the front page at the latest super couple in Charm City.

Things were looking great for Emily but when filming day came, her idea took a different turn than what she wanted as the creative team thought of more sex to the screen. After telling Green Fury about it, Emily stands up soon comes up with a better commercial ad this time with The Olympian naked and covered in bubbles while washing the car. Green Fury comes and gives him the product that protects anyone from lasers and fire. It tested positive with the focus groups of females 18-49.

Also Teddy tries to get another try at asking Green Fury out. He asked everyone of their opinion of a leather jacket and even wore a sweater that said he's a feminist and eye liner.

And not to mention, Jackie gets jealous of how her daughter and Wendy get along and even told her why she was in a fight with a kid. She got so jealous that she was going to give her kid to Wendy but she finally learned why and it was because that kid was making fun of Jackie.

I thought that this was a good episode. I thought that Hudgens and Morales were great together in this episode. The Wendy and Jackie story was pretty good, not my favorite favorite but it was good to say the least. I couldn't get enough of Teddy and his crush on Green Fury. The writing on this was pretty good, I would say the memorable moments would be Emily/Fury and Teddy putting on eye liner and asking Fury out. Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.

You can catch Powerless Thursday nights at 8:30/7:30c on NBC.

Fight for Office Justice: Powerless "Van v. Emily: Dawn of Justice"

It's a battle for the office, who'll win in this great battle between Emily and Van?

When Emily ask Van to move from the cubical office to a real office, Van denies her. But when she get the Corp's approval, its game on on who gets the office. Emily challenges Van to the Green Arrow archer game for the office, but before the game could begin, Jackie, Teddy, Ron and Wendy explain to her why he should win instead of her, mostly because he'll act like a big baby.

When the game begins, Emily pretends to lose the match until Van really got to her and showed off how good she really is. But after a quick time out, Emily shows off one more time and with heavy confidence she actually misses and loses the match against Van, but instead of just losing big time, Van gave everyone new chairs, donuts and even Emily's office as well.

Emily didn't take losing at all and tries to come clean to Van after looking through his childhood trophies that his family has been babying him his whole life. After the truth bomb, she apologies for her actions and the two made up.

Meanwhile, Teddy builds a super crush on the newest superhero in town, Green Fury. He tries to get her attention by falling off the roof again, but gets picked up by the Olympian. Tries to use the Green Fury signal like Batman but that didn't work at all until  he was walking with his girlfriend, Hannah and gets her purse stolen that Green Fury came and stopped the robber. Teddy makes a fool of himself to both Hannah and Fury.

"Van v Emily: Dawn of Justice" was another good episode between Emily and Van, maybe not top of the list so far but it's there along with the others. Hudgens and Tudyk really show comedy chemistry and not to mention Danny Pudi's character falling in love with Green Fury played by Natalie Morales, who plays the superhero very well. The writing was good, it could have been a little better but it had some memorable moments. Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.

You can catch Powerless Thursday nights at 8:30/7:30c on NBC.

Health Challenge: Kevin Can Wait ""Quiet Diet"

When Donna challenges Kevin to get his cholesterol down so he could go to Mets Fantasy Camp, Kevin plays a trick on her.

"Quite Diet" is another Donna and Kevin going at it situation that I enjoy watching from time to time. When Donna and Kevin need to get a check up for their insurance, if they have a lower cholesterol levels their premiums go down but not they're paying a lot. Donna tries to motivate Kevin into eating healthy by offering him to go to Mets Fantasy camp if he's levels are low.

Kevin tells Donna that he can do it and soon gets Chale's help in on it and uses his cleanser that he has used when he was a chubby kid in a photo and his own pants. After the next couple of days and sweaty nights, Kevin makes it to test day and surprising passes it, which does shock Donna and learns that she has high cholesterol.

After the test results, Donna goes on an extreme health plan, but Chale lets her on what Kevin has done and later plays his little game as she pretends to give Kevin what he wants from a second wife if she dies. But he catches on and admits to what he did and how he fooled her with the cleanser. The two agree and tried the cleanser out and at the end they were getting over the heavy sweats and moving into the hallucinations where Donna saw a six-pack abs Kevin and Kevin saw Donna as a taco.

I thought this was a very good and funny episode. I thought that James and Hayes were hilarious and probably one of their funniest situational episodes together. During most of the episode I couldn't get enough of what they would do after each other would have died from getting a second spouse. Also the ice cream thing was also pretty funny too and clever as well and we get to learn that Chale was an overweight kid, which was kind of fun for Kevin to make fun of but also bonded them as well. The writing was good. Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

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