Great News "The Red Door"/"Celebrity Hacking Scandal"

"The Red Door" 

When it comes to Carol and telling them not to do something, she does it anyway.

In this episode, Chuck asks Carol to go to his home and let the cable guy in to do some work and instructs her not to open the red door. Of course, we are all just wondering what is inside that door. Carol tries to do her best; even looking at Portia's hacked emails helped a little until when the cable guy left and shut the door, all of a sudden, the red door opened.

Carol looks in and sees Chuck, but as she talks to him, apparently Chuck loses his head, literally, and she runs screaming. She tells Chuck what didn't happen, but he realizes she opened it and looks. Chuck tells a story about how he was once going to be lead anchor at Nightly News and was such a big shot that he had a wax figure of himself put up (which is what Carol saw), but all things come to an end when he gets a call that he was passed over and they took his wax figure. The only two people who care about their wax figure are Chuck and Scott Baio. Chuck asked Carol to take the wax figure and dump it in the garbage.

In the meantime, Portia informs the staff that her computer was hacked, and everything from photos to emails is shared on the internet. Katie and Greg do their best not to look into it, but they do and read Portia's email saying that Katie and Greg were boning each other. It got into their heads that everyone must think they're a couple, but no one believes it.

One of the funniest scenes came when they try to explain that they're not a couple, but they could be, and Beth tells Greg that she thought he said to her that he had no gentles, for which he defines that he had and still kept saying he has gentles to Katie and she tells him that it's creepy to keep repeating it.

The two show the staff the email, and soon, Portia comes in pretty mad about it.  But she clears that email up, telling everyone that she thinks that Katie and Greg are dull and blames auto-correct for it. Soon, the camera guy runs in, saying that Chuck is on the roof and thinks he might jump. Everyone rushes outside, and Carol wonders and soon discovers the wax figure of Chuck that she placed on the roof. She runs to Chuck and tells him, and they rush up. Soon, Katie., goes up there, and as they talk it out, she tries to move the figure away from the edge, but it falls over and lands in the parking lot. Everyone was relieved and upset.

"The Red Door" was not its best episode, but had some hilarious moments. Watching Katie and Greg try to make a point that even though they are not together, they could be. Also, that scene with Beth telling Greg that he told her he had no gentles was hilarious. Also, just watching Andrea Martin and John Michael Higgins in this episode was funny, too, and draws some excellent chemistry. Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.

"Celebrity Hacking Scandal"  

Who can deliver, and who can not? Carol wants to move up in the news business, while Katie thinks she has the story of the century.

"Celebrity Hacking Scandal" stood out pretty well, with Carol trying to help produce a story for Portia. At the same time, Katie thinks she has the story of the century about the hacking of celebrity photos and other stuff.

When Katie tells Greg about it, he doesn't think she has something, and when Katie investigates why he gives her a hard time on this, she finds out that Greg once had a big scoop on the Loch Ness Monster, but it turns out nothing. But Katie has the source, who turns out to be an 11-year-old who did it, but it all led up to the online game Biscuits Blitz that's very popular.

Speaking of famous, Chuck and Portia fight over each other roles and spaces. Portia gets Chuck to play Biscuits Blitz, who gets addicted because he wants to get in touch with the younger people. But the scene with Chuck and Portia arguing was a hilarious part of the episode.

I enjoyed this episode, mostly watching Higgins and Richie go at it at times, as the two are hilarious. I was watching Greg and Katie go at it again. It is pretty good. I thought the writing was pretty good. Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.

You can catch the season finale of Great News on Tuesday, May 23, at an earlier time, 8/7c before The Voice Finale on NBC.

Wings: 20 Years Later After Final Flight

It was on this date back in 1997 that the television series Wings took its last flight. Wings ran for eight seasons on NBC, part of that Must See TV era with Cheers, Seinfeld, and Fraiser.

The series was set in a fictional airport in Nantucket, Massachusetts, where brothers Joe and Brian Hackett (starring Tim Daly and Steven Webber) operate Sandpiper Air. There's Crystal Bernard as Helen Chappel-Hackett, Thomas Haden Church as Lowell Mather, David Schramm as Roy Biggins, Rebecca Schull as Fay Cochran, Tony Shalhoub as Antonio Scarpacci along with Farrah Forke as Alex Lambert, and Amy Yasbeck as Casey Chappel.

It was such an excellent, friendly family comedy that was so clever and hilarious. There were some perfect moments. I've always enjoyed the Joe and Helen moments. I loved the end of season three when the gang was heading toward Helen's debut of playing for the Boston Symphony, and they came with issues with the plane and had to make an emergency landing. And come season four, Joe loses his plane and has to close his business for a while. Also, Helen and Joe's wedding was excellent. And I couldn't forget about Tony Shalhoub's character, Antonio, who does steal some of the best moments on the show.

I do recommend you watch this series. The series finale, which aired on this date, ended nicely and full circle, in my opinion. I could see now that 20 years later, the Hackett boys were still together with two and five planes. Joe and Helen have two children, and everyone else is happy to be around one another.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt "Kimmy Can't Help You"/"Kimmy Goes to College"

"Kimmy Can't Help You"

Just as Kimmy fills out her application for college, she gets an unexpected visitor.

If there was one thing about this episode that I enjoyed it was watching Kimmy and Titus deal with this kind of situation. When Kimmy is filling out her application for college, getting help from Titus on acting and made her think he was having a spell, until s knock on the door came and it was The Reverend's fiance aka the Mystery Bitch, played by Laura Dern.

Dern's character delivers the divorce papers for Kimmy to signed and she talks about how they met and how she falls in love, in a way like women are with Charlie Mason in prison. Kimmy feels bad and tries to tell her how bad the Reverend is but she doesn't listen and Titus doesn't care what she does with him as he tries to get Kimmy to signed the papers and move on.

Kimmy eats the papers and they had to wait a whole night for the papers to get printed. Titus sends Kimmy out to get away from the woman to get her application done, which she did from dance team to debate why people throw urine at Al Roker. As the next day comes, the tables have turned Titus cares for the woman and Kimmy doesn't but with Titus having a way to change her mind she doesn't sign the papers. Oh yeah the fiance is upset about it but Kimmy knows it's for the best and now will have to try to find a way to make money.

Meanwhile, Jacqueline and Russ tries to convince Russ' father about renaming the Washington Redskins as they plan to do it at the old man's birthday party. The tables turned when Russ' father announced that his better son, Duke, will take over ownership. The plan backfires and Russ asked Jacqueline to marry him but that didn't work out. What also didn't work out is that no one stop backing into Russ and landed him in the hospital with a full body cast. The good news he's does marry Jacqueline with Duke and their father's blessing so they can have Jacqueline part of the family business. The bad news is that Jacqueline's parents don't approve.

"Kimmy Can't Help You" is a fine good episode. Laura Dern was not only hilarious but amazing as the crazy fiance of The Reverend. I just love watching Kimmy and Titus hand these kind of situations. Just watching them in those scenes just puts a smile to my face even if it's bad or good. I did loved when Titus tells Kimmy to go and finish her college application and buttons her coat all the up and she didn't like it. Titus replies to Kimmy how she lost that scarf and this what happens. Jacqueline an Russ story was good. I did enjoyed that moment when Jacqueline told Russ' father how Russ can poop but wish that they knew about it before placing the body cast on him. I thought the writing was good. Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

"Kimmy Goes to College"

In order to earn money for college, Kimmy signs up for the task app and bumps into an familiar friend.

"Kimmy Goes to College" was very funny and enjoyable. When Kimmy signs up not only her but Titus on the task rabbit app, they get chosen for tasks. Titus gets to sing out some background stuff for an artist that doesn't freak him out but on the last task it does and it turns into one of the most catchiest tunes so far.

Meanwhile, Kimmy does a lot of task from lifting refrigerator up the stairs to even put together that rowing exercise machine at Columbia University. But when she makes to the room of the requester, it turns out to be Jacqueline's step daughter, Xan. She wasn't the one who requested that it was her roommate.

Xan tells Kimmy that when she was in high school everyone looked up to her because she came from a rich family, but now in college no one cares and makes fun of her and her rich family. After trying to be bad ass like she thought they were, turns out they're not like that. But Xan's roommates are amazed on how Kimmy can row on that exercise machine that in fact talked to their coach and she demand the Dean that Kimmy should be granted for a scholarship, which she did.

Also in this episode, Lillian tries to filibuster an owner for planning a store in the neighborhood. Lillian tries her best to stop the owner but he ups one on her and at the end, he tells her that she has a job that nothing goes by her unless she says so The two seems to probably have a nice relationship.

Overall, I enjoyed this episode. I loved the short tunes that Titus was singing, from older people should have an expiration date like milk does. Also that California song is a hoot!! Please! Please let there be a soundtrack coming soon!! I would love to listen to this on the road! That was probably my favorite thing of the episode. The writing was good and so was the performance from Carol Kane and Burgess as well. Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

You can catch the third season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt available on Netflix now!

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt "Kimmy Gets Divorced?!"/"Kimmy's Roommate Lemonades!"

"Kimmy Gets Divorced?!" 

The third season of Netflix's hit comedy series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is streaming now! And the first episode of the new season is quite hilarious.

In "Kimmy Gets Divorced?!" as Kimmy celebrates her GED graduation, she gets another phone call from the Reverend and this time it's about the divorced papers he wants sign and sent back so he can marry someone again.

Kimmy doesn't want to do anything with him anymore and goes to Jacqueline for advise. She advises Kimmy to play with the Reverend, make him suffer and have him beg to get those papers signed. While playing with the Reverend's mind, Kimmy decides that she wants to go to college. But if she's gonna need money she's gonna have to get some and what Jacqueline advises her was to tear up the papers and make a new one so she gets his stuff and sell it.

Meanwhile, Titus is back from his short cruise as he was washed on the beach. He really doesn't tell the events that happen but as soon as he gets back he fears of showing himself to his boyfriend Michael. But before showing his face he tries to find another job this time with Sesame Street but needs someone's help to talk to a producer. He goes to his nemesis, Coriolanus Bur, who's performing the musical Matilda. He gives the name of a producer and also where to meet him...at an exercise class.

Titus goes to the exercise class and sees the producer but instead of meeting with him, he takes the guy's phone and makes a call to his assistant about getting Titus for a job. Later he comes in and audition for the part by singing the ABC's, talking with children and healthy foods, but also reads well with the puppet but to get the job completely he would have to give the puppet a special moment but ends it and runs off.

Titus runs off to go see Michael and when he sees him, he sees Michael with another guy and Titus becomes heartbroken.

Talking about heartbroken, Lillian decides to end her relationship with Bobby Durst. And goes through the grieving process, but the two talk it out and seems pretty happy after, even though Bobby did pee his pants.

I thought this episode was hilarious. I didn't care too much for the Lillian's storyline in this episode it was okay, not a whole lot of laughs at times. Kimmy's and Titus were hilarious to watch. I couldn't get enough of watching Kimmy and Jacqueline duo it out with The Reverend about the divorce papers. Especially when Jacqueline answered the phone and acted like a taxi driver who gets into an accident.Titus was another and when Kimmy asked him about why he came back or mention someone's name, he become very defensive. Love the scene when he and Coriolanus meeting up again. It was just hilarious. Even the moment when the puppet and the producer tried to get have a special moment in exchange for the job. The writing was really good in this episode. Overall I give this episode a 9/10.

"Kimmy's Roommate Lemonades!"

 This was by the the funniest and well written episode of the show so far!!

After Titus saw Michael with another man, he goes on a rant to Kimmy and tells her that he's going to do what everyone would do best in this situation...he's going lemonading.

In three different songs, Titus sings about his love and heartache for Michael in a Beyonce parodies. It was clever , it was hilarious and it was literally Titus Burgess best performance so far.

As soon as Titus breaks Michael's truck window, Michael runs up. The two talk and Titus ask about the man that he saw in the previous episode. Michael says he is just a friend and they were just playing video games. Michael tries to make it clear that they're not in love, but Jeff, the name he's seeing, really is.

As soon as Michael realizes that Titus was right, he runs off and apologies but Titus gets a flash from the past as he did the same thing with his first love. Titus takes Mike to the house of his first boyfriend and after meeting with them tells Mike that they should take a break and see other people.

Meanwhile, Kimmy takes a placement test of what career she should pursue and after answering questions which lead to her becoming a cross guard. As she goes on college tour she makes a new friend who goes to Robert Morris College. She decides to go to that college hoping to hang with the student but he'll transfer to another college at the end of the semester.

But Kimmy gets pulled in when Lillian and Jacqueline fight for her vote as a city council for their district as Jacqueline fights for clean water and Lillian wants to keep things the same. Kimmy picks Lillian and well let's just say that Lillian didn't expect what she was getting into that everything she was fighting for was denied with other votes of the city council.

"Kimmy's Roommate Lemonades" was one of it's best episodes. It was hilariously funny and after watching the episode I just re-watched it twice. The writing was outstandingly amazing. Titus Burgess really stands out in this episode and should be consider for Supportive Actor in a Comedy series at the Emmys and should win. Yep, I said it. I also enjoyed watching Lillian and Jacqueline battle each other for Kimmy's vote. Overall, I give this episode a 10/10.

You can catch Season 3 and the entire series of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is available on Netflix now!

Hug Time! The Blacklist "Mr. Kaplan (No. 4)"/"Mr. Kaplan: Conclusion" Season Finale

It was season finale that we've all been waiting for: Red v. Kaplan who will come out victorious? Here's a recap!

As Red tries to make a deal by selling weapons to buyers, apparently someone else had taken them and put Red in a sticky situation. Later on, he's trying to find any ounce of money in his accounts but Kaplan apparently has sucked him dry, talk about a messy divorce.

With that going, Gale admits to Ressler that he knows he's working with Keen and the task force that's working with Reddington and will take down him and the team for working with a criminal while committing crimes. That lead to Aram getting picked up by the FBI and was subpoena to the court about the task force and Reddington. He was granted full immunity but he wouldn't take it because he doesn't want to betrayed his friends.

Kaplan tries to get into a secret government building that holds secret documents where Reddington's document of a full immunity was placed. She takes one of the officer's eyeball out and give it to a hutch man to get the document. Keen and Samar gets there and chases him for a while but is caught by the police. Keen takes him to Red for a chat and as the guy tells Red that he can kill him all he wants that he won't talk. But he also asked for something in return if he can get Kaplan to him for which Red offers him a paradise island of his own that he had kept at Don's place (Liz's grandfather place). But Red kills him after getting the information.

Red and Kaplan meet in a theater but it gets interrupted by Gale and his partner shooting at Red. Red and Dembe escape but when Gale comes back to talk to Kaplan, she offers him that she can testify against Red. She tells what she knows and asked a full immunity but also to be left alone for a while she takes care of something very personal. She heads off to a place where a tree is marked with the letter K and she talks to Katarina that she's doing this for Liz and starts digging out a suitcase and places it near a station.

With the Task Force on their knees now, Red hunts for a man who's also a cleaner and finds him after making one of his clients call him. He not only gets him but takes Ressler to his shop where he has the Reven Wright's body in a container. They find the bullet that killed her and used it against Lauren Hitchin as a chip to get the committee to stop the testifying of the Task Force and Reddington, which they did.

As soon as that happened Gale calls Kaplan and tells her about what just happen. He gets a nice visit from Red and takes his phone from him and kind of goes memory lane with him. It was one of the most funniest scenes.

As Red calls Cooper to trace the phone of Kaplan, Liz is in root to talk with Kaplan privately and as they do, Kaplan tells Liz that she'll tell her the truth and drives her until Red's team stops them. Liz gets out as she kind of figures what the secret could be. Kaplan was order to shut the car off but instead shoots and drives off. She's stop by Red on the bridge and the gang behind her. The two face off again and talk about how this is the end. Kaplan tells him when she's dead that Liz get the suitcase. Red tells her that he's not going to killer her and as soon as she tells either way Liz will learn the truth, she jumps off the bridge and dies.

Later on, Cooper gives Liz an envelope that contains test results of a DNA test that he has always wanted to do ever since day one when Red and Liz met. Liz tells Cooper about how she did the same thing but never really looked and after looking she heads off to talk to Red and shows the results and just asked why waited to tell her this long. Instead of running, she just walks up and hugs him like a daughter should hug her dad.

But this isn't over as Red and Dembe check the spot where that suitcase was buried and sees that it was dug up. Soon we see someone picking up the suitcase and guess who that person is...no other then Tom Keen (SOB!!!). Big Surprise!!!

This was one hell of a on the edge thrilling season finale that had some nice twist and turns, even at the end. I was stunned to see Tom coming back. I didn't think he would be back this season. But he's going to have a bigger role in season five. I'm so glad that Liz finds out that Red is her father. Now that that chapter is over let's begin something new and it looks like something big is coming. I was also stunned to see Ressler killed Hitchin by mistake or was it? That was a real OMG moment. It had a lot of great scenes from Ressler talking about Hitchin at the post office or when Liz and Kaplan talked near the lake or Red and Kaplan talking for one last time. The writing was very good and very much tied up the season. I can't wait for Season 5. Overall, I give this episodes 1 9/10. Overall, I give this season a 8/10.

You can catch The Blacklist when it returns this fall to it's new night and time Wednesdays at 8/7c on NBC.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Season One & Two Recap/Review

Netflix hit comedy series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt will be streaming tomorrow. If you haven't seen the series, you've been missing out on one of the best comedies. Here's a recap of the first two seasons of the show.

Season One: 

The series started when Kimmy Schmidt and three other women were in an underground bunker for the past 15 years with Reverend Richard Gary Wayne who kidnapped them to joining his cult thinking that the world had ended and they were the last survivors. Soon Kimmy and the women were rescued  and appeared on the Today Show with Matt Lauer (even though one of them called him Bryant thinking that he was Bryant Gumbel).

When Lauer asked the question what is next, Kimmy really didn't know what to say and after thinking about it she decides to head out on her own in New York City. On her own, she tries swinging on a swing, eating shark gummy for dinner and even letting a horse free.

As she roams around in the city she spots a place that was for rent to live, she meets with the landlady Lillian Kaushtupper and offers Kimmy a chance to room with Titus Andromedon in her downstairs apartment. But with no job or any references, Kimmy went out to find a job at the candy shop until she spotted the kid that she saw earlier and takes him to his home to his mother, that's where she meets with Jacqueline Voorhees, a Manhattan trophy wife, who mistaken Kimmy for the nanny but Kimmy mistaken her for someone trapped in a cult.

Later on, Kimmy goes for her GED and meets and falls in love with a Vietnamese man named Dong. Near the end of the season, Kimmy had to face the Reverend once again on trial  and soon catches him in in own game and gets him found guilty and sent to prison. Jacqueline goes through life changes from has her marriage comes to an end and deals with her past head on. Even Titus tries to go for his dream being in a musical but meets his nemesis for the musical of Spiderman. But Titus makes a music video about "Peeno Noir" which becomes a huge hit online. And at the end with being the close friend of Kimmy's, speaking to the press for her might not be the best thing for him as it not only gave him attention (even freezing up while on live television) but also it drove out his wife to come see him who he hasn't seen in a long time.

Season one was a smashing home run in it's first season. There were some dark themes in the show but the characters were so rich and amazingly hilarious. After being on "The Office" and "Bridesmaids", Ellie Kemper shines own her own and has a bunch of helpful colorful ensemble cast. Titus Burgess makes his mark on the show as one of the best supporting actors in comedy. Carol Kane as Lillian is another as she's just amazing and lights up the scene. And Jane Krakowski playing Jacqueline at first seems to be a rich Jenna from 30 Rock but shines and really makes her mark as well with her comedy timing. The writing was outstanding and there were a lot of memorable episodes. Season One overall gets a 10/10.

Season Two

In season two, I like to call it the Blast from the 90's, there were a ton of 90's referneces in season that too many for me to remember. But if I had to choice one of them, it would have to be parody songs from the 90's like R. Kelly's I Believe I can Fly" into Art Smelly's "I'm Convinced I Can Swim" and Night Ranger's "Sister Christian" into Dusk Mountie's Brother Baptist.

But throughout the season Kimmy quits working for Jacqeline and gets a job at a year round Christmas store and later becomes an Uber driver. Carol tries to get her back out on the market but runs into Dong, who's in a green card marriage with another GED student. But they try to get back together nad tries to have sex but soon he gets deported.

Jacqueline goes back to her home town with her native american family. She tries to fit back in but she's doesn't and her parents tell her to go back to New York where she's got connections and such. Just before she leaves, she gets a vision to help her family and friends by throwing a gala party to take down the Washington Redskins logo, but her nemesis Deidre throws another party as well. But Jacqueline's friend Mini mistakenly put the date of the party the wrong way and people think it's for December instead of October. She later dates a layer that happens to be the owner of the Redskins.

Titus begins dating a construction worker, Mike. They're relationship seems to go well even meeting his family for dinner. Near the end of the season, he leaves to be a performer on a cruise and Lillian tries protesting the invasion of hipsters as they try to put a new apartments.

Throughout the season, Kimmy there's been this storyline that circles around her burping. In the middle of the season as she's working as an uber driver, she picks up a psychiatrist who's drunk and fun at night and normal and boring in the day. She talks to the psychiatrist about what she's been through at the bunker thinking that's what the burping was from until it's actually about her mother.  Kimmy makes amends with her mother but soon gets a phone from The Reverend from prison informing her that they need to get a divorce.

Season two was another home runs season with outstanding writing and performing from Kemper and Burgess and Krakowski. Great performances from guest stars like Amy Sedaris, Fred Armisen, Jeff Goldblum, Josh Charles and Lisa Kudrow. I couldn't get enough of the 90's references from tape cassettes to listening to parody songs and even watching Kimmy learning that some of the hot singers in the day are gay now. OVerall, I give this season a 10/10.

You can catch the third season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt available to stream on Netflix this Friday, May 19.  

WOW! WOW! OH MY GOD!!!!! Chicago Fire "My Miracle" Season Finale

WOW! OH MY GOD!! WOW!! OH MY GOD!!!

Last night's season finale ended on a tear-jerker cliffhanger unlike any other. Hell, I'm still shaking up from it.

Let's get to recapping; Casey is not only dealing with his alderman problem but also Gabby's father staying with them. He thinks Dawson's father should get tough love and get him going on finding a new home and a job, but Gabby wants to take some time with him. But when Casey talks with his alderman rivals about agreeing to support each one's bill they are trying to pass, Dawson's dad comes up and makes a fool out of himself and Casey, and the deal is off. That sent Casey to spend the night at Severide's place.

Meanwhile, when there is a car accident on the bridge, Herrmann saves a boy trapped in the van. The van soon burns in flames, including the boy's Chicago Cubs baseball cards, some signed by the team, and was on their way to get Kris Bryant's autograph. Herrmann felt so bad that he was going to hand him his cards, but he forgot that he sold them years ago for cross-country skies but then sold those for something else. But that led him to go over to Wrigley Field and ask if some of the players Bryant, mostly, would sign the kid's cast. Of course, Herrmann and the team take him on a ride and introduce them to Kris and Jake. Not to mention Mike Tirco, who's fantastic too. But also Grandpa Rossy makes a special appearance as a sweeper.

Cruz is still upset with Mouch, and Mouch is trying to make things right, but Cruz isn't going to have it. Cruz keeps acting depressed about it, and who wouldn't be suspended for sixty days and can't pay for his cousin's college fund? I would also know that Mouch had tried everything he had done. But Mouch thinks that with things changing around and getting older, he believes it's time, as he told Trudy after looking back at his Fire Academy class photo. He gets a job as a salesman, selling gas detectors and other things.

Casey, in the meantime, makes an appearance at an alderman meeting and makes a case about his opponent on how his bill would make a big tax cut, but makes his case on his statement that firefighters are the heroes that put their jobs on the line every day for the city and make the case that he's family and his job as alderman have taken a toll. He announces that he will step down and nominates Tamera as his successor.


Then we come to the factory fire, calling everyone to the scene. Bowden gives his gut feeling about a four-minute window for his crew to get in and get out, but time wasn't on their side at all. Before going in, Mouch tells Herrmann that this will be his last shift and that he will retire.

As Squad takes the north, Truck takes the front, and soon, the fire takes a thing of its own with the roof coming down. Casey spots someone and tries to take her out, but Bowden calls everyone out as the fire grows. Mouch stops, and Herrmann tells him they must go but soon collapses and suffers a heart attack. Cruz, who finally comes to his senses, tries to get Mouch to get up and get out of the building. Soon, the ceilings start to collapse around them. Not only Casey, Herrmann, and Mouch are stuck, but Severide and a few of his men are trapped. They could do nothing; Casey called Gabby on the walkies and told her she meant a lot to him and that she was his miracle.  It was enough not only to scream out, "Get the hell out of there," but also to cry your eyes out. We see Dawson looking at the front of the factory building as the front entrance is covered with flames, and we cut to the end of the scene and the season.

"My Miracle" was one hell of an episode that not only had humor and heartwarming but gave such an emotional punch at the end that only Chicago Fire could do. That ending that cliffhanger was such a powerful scene, still enough to make me rethink it and tear up again. The Herrmann storyline was once again so unique and heartwarming, but don't forget humor as well.

And how about the Cubbies in the episode? Bryant can look good on the field, off the field, and television. As for who will live and who will die, I'll have to take my time thinking over this summer. Last time, I didn't know Shay would die, but she died in Season Three. So, as the writers and executives say, think of what could make a good storyline for the characters. Overall, I give this episode a 10/10. And I share this season's season a valid 10/10. It was by far their best season yet.

To all the #ChiHards (Chicago fans) out there, have a great summer, and see you guys in the fall!
 (I'm thinking October again, right? But let's hope for a September premiere).

Chicago Fire will be back in the fall on Tuesdays at 10/9c on NBC.
