Sticking Up For a Friend: Brooklyn Nine-Nine "A Tale of Two Bandits"




Has Doug Judy struck again? Will the Nine-Nine lose their bar that's been part of their lives for so long? Here's a recap!


Terry confronts Jake that the Pontiac Bandit has struck again and believes that Doug Judy is back at his old game, but Jake doesn't believe that. When Terry called Doug's mother, they learn that Doug Judy is dead. They go to the funeral and as Jake sings a sweet tribute song about Doug, he sees him across the hall and confronts him about it. Doug tells Jake and Terry that he's been targetted because of a crime that he hasn't committed. They learn soon that it was Doug's sister, Trudy Judy and they try to work with her but in the end, she played them all and used Doug's book on how to steal cars and make a living for a while.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Nine-Nine team deals with the firefighters as they take over their own bar, Shaw's. The only way they could get rid of them is a drink off, the one to drink the most amount of bar tab wins. Everyone goes down puking, but Captain Holt comes, in the end, drinking a lot of wine and wins in a blaze of glory and even puking after.

"A Tale of Two Bandits" was as hilarious as I could have imagined! With every single bit of this episode made me laugh and laugh whether its Jake and Doug learning that Turdy Judy is the car bandit to even the Nine-Nine team drinking against the NYFD to keep their bar and Holt coming at the end to drink the rest of the win, that one was warm. The writing was so strong and that included character development. Overall, I give this episode a 9.5/10.

You can catch Brooklyn Nine-Nine Thursdays at 9/8c on NBC.

Finally! This is the episode that I've been looking forward to this season. Well, in a way, since Monica Raymund left the show I had always thought that this season should have that single heroic episode for Brett. We had one for Severide, Casey, and Gabby, why not Brett, right? I'll take Brett, Kidd, and Foster having their heroic moment episode this should be one badass rescue to see this week. And speaking of chili, I might have to make some before the episode airs.

One Night: Chicago PD "Night In Chicago"


It's the most powerful episode of the season so far that will have you shocked. Here's a recap!

While on an undercover job to take down drug boss, Gamble,. As Atwater gets close enough with Daryl, Gamble's relative and who works for him, he gives him a tip about a friend he knows to help with the lost drugs that the Intelligence took down earlier.

But as things were to go smooth, Atwater and Daryl get pulled over by two Chicago cops. Not only watching this, Voight tells the team to wait. But when the cops got word of a robbery and the suspects were two black males, they go their way to arrest Atwater and Daryl. Atwater tries to explain but when Daryl argues with the officer and gets shot in front of Atwater. Voight comes in and talks with the officers and offers to take the suspect to the station. As Atwater gets into the car, Burgess asked if he was okay and his response was no as it's just another night in Chicago.

Later, as Voight talks with Kelton about the situation, Kelton was pissed to learn that Atwater was arrested and that he couldn't tell the cops that he was CPD undercover. But if he would have done that their undercover would have been blown. Not only did this situation puts Atwater in a difficult position to choose a side that he thinks is best but also carry out the undercover to take down Gamble, for which he did.

As Atwater rewatches the tape from the officer's camera, Ruzek talks to him and tells him that he's got his back no matter what, even if he doesn't understand being black. Later on, he met with Ray Price, who was the man who helped Voight take down Gamble, to asked him to use dirt that he got on the officer that shot Daryl because it would be the start point for Price to run for Mayor.

After Atwater gave his version of the event, he goes after the officer that shot Daryl, even though he got away scot-free. But that doesn't mean they are going to be best of friends for that and instead, Atwater takes their beef outside the bar where Atwater kicks his ass and warns him.

"Night In Chicago" was a powerful and intense episode of Chicago PD, but it was LaRoyce Hawkins' best performance of the season so far since the early episode this season. It was, as usual, the classic style of Chicago PD but then took a turn that got to an intense seriousness but also made my skin crawl as well. As much as I'm okay with what Atwater decided to do, but it would have interesting to see where would his character have gone if he took Price's offer and told the investigation team about it.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch Chicago PD Wednesdays at 10/9c on NBC.
