Gut Decisions: Chicago Med "Heavy Is The Head"
As Conner and Maggie put to the test of saving a patient while a med student is in questioned of her methods. Here's a recap of Chicago Med!
As Conner's hybrid OR is almost ready, a patient comes in with a bad heart and is need of repair. Conner can't get him up to the OR in time and decides to use his hybrid OR, which upsets Maggie. With the typical OR nurse can't find anything, Maggie steps in and helps Rhodes. In the end, Conner and Maggie saved the patient and he thinks that she would be great if she works with him in the OR. That might come different for Maggie.
Natalie and Curry treat a woman, who's in the early stage of pregnancy, is suffering pain. All signs point out to be an ectopic pregnancy, but the mother won't consent to the surgery thinking that god will help save this baby. Even Charles talks to her but sees that she's talking and thinking clearly about her decision. Curry doesn't like it and misinforms the mother about that there isn't a heart beat and had got the surgery. But Charlies learn that the equipment didn't malfunction and confronts Curry and tells her that he's gonna look thoroughly of her cases.
Ethan and April deal with a child, who's in need of a kidney transplant. But they learn that the father is red flagged as he kidnapped him and calls the cops. As he's arrested, his son gets worst and tries to look for a kidney. Seeing that the father is a match, Gwen orders the team not to do the transplant. But the father later shoots himself in the head and Choi had no other options but to do the transplant.
And when all things seem to go Halstead's way, after treating his father's old friend, he asked if he could rent out a place that he owns for the wedding reception. After agreeing to terms, he tells Natalie about the deal. As they are thrilled about it; it turns out when a visit from Jay turns things upside down. The guy is a mob boss, who's been under watch for a while now and ask Will to step away.
"Heavy is the Head" is not only a great song from the Zac Brown Band, it's also a really great episode. As much as Ethan and April's story in this episode was very powerful; it was very interesting to see Conner and Maggie work together. The Curry story was shocking and pushing Charles is something I would be afraid to see from now on. And I don't think Will will turn down the place. I don't see why not have a wedding at Molly's, right?
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

Sometimes the best way to deal with disappointment is to help someone else.
With the free time that Jessica has now, she decides to help Honey and Marvin with their baby. She gives them by given them a zuo yue zi or "Sitting the Month." Jessica helps with everything while Honey and Marvin don't do anything but sit and relax, but didn't know it was going to be for a month.
Honey believes something is up. After Day 3, she learns why Jessica has been acting the way she has been. She learns that Jessica's books didn't do so well and comforts her with her southern tradition of drinking sangria.
With Jessica out of the house, Louis tries to bond with Even. From getting their hair done to chasing storms, it gets hard for Louis to fine something they have in common. That is until they can really criticize a movie like Twister.
Eddie and Emery get inspired to start lifting weights from watching "Pumping Iron." But the two never quite go through it and instead bonds with their dad in getting their hair done.
"The Hand that Sits The Cradle" was a hilarious episode and one that will be in my favorite list. The cast puts on a good performance, mainly Constance Wu, Chelsey Crips and Randall Park but Ray Wise does steal some moments.
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

Party!!!!: Superstore "Baby Shower"
As Amy tries to find a way to get baby gifts, Dina gets her Christmas card photo ready.
"Baby Shower" had many hilarious moments that really made this episode solid good. When Amy tries to figure out a way to get free baby gifts, Jonah comes up with a baby shower. That might be a great idea, but when the co-workers get mad about being not invited, the baby shower is on.
It turned into more than just for Amy as Glenn and his wife invited someone too. From playing games to guessing what kind of expired baby food it was; but the top two moments came when Amy gets a stripper baby and Jonah wrapping Amy in toilet paper like a baby.
But the one person that misses out on the shower, Dina. After getting family photos taken with Glenn and his wife, she wants her Christmas card photos done too. But when Mateo sees, he gets involved with some amazing photo scene moments that really blew away.
Not to mention: Garrett figured out that Jonah and Amy are together. And while Mateo left Dina hanging during a photo shoot, Sandra came in and didn't even help her in a sneaky funny way.
I thought that this episode was hilarious. The writing and performance from the cast was strong. It's hard to choose which had the better moments whether it's Dina or Amy but they both had equal moments. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
You can catch Superstore Thursdays at 8/7c on NBC.
Coming to Terms: The Good Place "Chapter 30: The Snowplow"
With Michael and Janet on Earth, they try to guide Eleanor and the gang to the right path.
"The Snowplow" was another fantastic episode that brought some amazing character development. As Michael and Janet are back to Earth; they try to be Eleanor and the gang's snowplow that will guide them on the right path. From Eleanor winning $18,000 dollars to Tahani reuniting with an old boyfriend (an unpopular Hemsworth brother); it only makes things slightly better. That's until Tahani is getting married and moving away and the group is splitting up; which makes Eleanor very unconformable.
Michael give some advice to Eleanor but that really didn't go the way she and he had hoped for. Eleanor leaves with embarrassment and soon talks with Chidi's partner about the situation. After coming to terms about what had happen, she apologizes and come to terms that they would see each other once a year.
With everything not going to plan, Michael comes up with another way to get these guys back together, but by the time they go back Eleanor and the gang see them opening the portal door.
I thought that this was another fantastic episode that coming from a person who don't like change that it hits the nail on the head. It had such strong character developed for Eleanor to come to terms about why she's acting in the way she is when it comes to having to leave the group that she really enjoys so much. And not only Kristen Bell's performance was amazing but Ted Danson and D'Arcy Carden gave such great moments.
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
You can catch The Good Place Thursdays at 8:30/7:30c on NBC.

This was another amazing episode. There were many moments from Lena and Supergirl back and forth on what's right and wrong to the moments of when J'onn ask for his father's help, most of his memory is almost not there anymore. Even coming up with Coco Coffee, which I'm up for.
