Come Fly with Him: The Blacklist "Sir Crispin Crandall"




Now that the Three Amigos are baack (Dembe, Liz and Red), their hunt is to find the next Blacklister and with that they're going to use FBI while The Director has his fingers and ears on them. And this blacklister will only be stopped while he's on the ground for a short time.

Red,Liz and Dembe travel to Canada for a project that they're working on, but they need something from Sir Crispin Candall, the next blacklister who has something that Red needs to get this thing moving to help save Liz.

Now Candall is probably one of the interesting new blacklister this season, kidnaps high profile scientists and transforms them with a new body. Not to mention that he freezes people for the future (I believe Walt Disney is around too). And oh yeah, Candall does all this in his plane that is up in the air. How freakin cool is that?!

At the time, Russler and the gang try to get to Candall's next victim, another scientist. They succeed and track down Candall's plane, but when they get to his air stripe, they find a whole bunch of frozen folks in a chamber like it was a scene from the film Coma.

The Director in the meantime, knows that Red has been talking with the FBI and gets Solomon up to speed about Candall. When the FBI was heading over to Candall also Red and Liz, Solomon try to get there before FBI do.

Red and Liz get there and spend some time talking. I get freakin nervous when time not our friend, with Solomon on the way that is. Red shoots Candall and his people prep him for frozen chamber while Red is looking for someone in the chamber. When he finds the person, he takes his thumbs and leaves. Solomon get there with his guys but Liz and Red escape in time and locks Solomon in the room.

With those thumbs Red took, it lead to a secret locked box in Canada where The Director keeps some stuff that is very valuable. That project was to break in the bank , grab the box, leave the thumbs and make the Director scared out of his mind.

Oh Red did call the Director about what he did and that he'll be going down unless he gets the charges drop on Liz. Looks like he won't back down and I have no idea what he has in store for Liz and Red but that does scare the ship out of me.

Also Ressler knows that the Director has someone working for him due to the video tape that they got of Solomon walking off the frame.

This episode didn't disappoint at all. I enjoyed the blacklist who tries to save people for the future, I wouldn't want to do that if Disney has done it. No body wants to relive what he had done. But anyway, it was great to see Liz, Red and Dembe back. And of course, Tom getting his butt kicked, had to kill someone and than take down another couple of people to get to Kurtkart.

Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

There's only one episode left til the fall finale (Nov. 19). The next two episodes shouldn't be missed at all.

You can catch The Blacklist Thursday nights at 9/8c on NBC.

Dreaming Accuse: Scream Queens "Beware of Young Girls"



Chanel #2 gets a funeral, the Dean gets accused of being a murder and Chanel knows who could two devil killers.

Finally after I would think seven episode in that these characters held a funeral for one of their dead friends. Chanel #2 gets a eulogy from Chanel unlike any other and tells her to riot in hell. The group later decide to play the Ouija broad to contact the spirits, they did and it freaked out about it.

Chanel freaks out that Chanel #2 tells that Chad has been cheating. She goes to Chad and interrupts his play date with his goat as he's trying to get the goats milk because he's lactose and tolerant. But the two make up as always.

The rest of the Chanel's think that Chanel could be the killer and devise a plan to killer. That plan was ruin by Chanel #2 as she told Chanel about it in a laxative dream. And as Chanel stops them by accusing them, she tells them that she knows who the killer is.

Meanwhile the dean gets arrested as Grace and Pete do their own investigation on the killing. They interview Feather McCarthy an tells them a story of how she and Dean Munsch's husband fell in love. So after, she gets home and finds a pool or blood with an arrow, follows with body parts telling her to go this way and finds her boyfriend's head in a fish tank.

Dean is arrested but gets out and gets Feather arrested and put into a glass prison just like the one from Hannibal's Silence of the Lambs. There were a few references from the film. And we do find out that the Dean actually did kill her ex-husband to get rid of Feather.

This episode was pretty good. I was amazed of Robert's performance and also Curtis too. There were Hannibal Lecter's reference that I enjoyed so much. And I'm glad to see Ariana Grande back on the show, and I thought she would be like Nick Jonas, who isn't dead. And the question still leads on who the killer is, is it Munsch? Gigi? Chanel? Grace and Zayday? I can't put one finger on it without changing it after each episode, Ryan Murphy and Co. have made this series a great mystery series.

Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

You can catch Scream Queens Tuesday nights at 9/8c on FOX.

For Love and Family: Chicago Fire "Your Day is Coming"



Two lives hang in the balance, while one firefighter gets to the bottom of the arson case and a candidate help saves the greatest place in Chicago.

Moments later after last week's episode, Dawson arrives at Chicago Med with Bowden. Casey gets there in time and Halstead takes care of her, but after finding the problem he needs to take her to the OR. Dawson was bleeding where the baby is located and when Halstead gets in there, Dawson will be the only person to save.

After Dawson came out of surgery, Halstead tells Casey that she's alright but the baby is gone. That really upset not only Casey and Bowden but the entire 51 family. Hell, I was heartbroken too. Casey tells him that he wants to tell her about the baby, but when she comes around he tells her but doesn't seem to be there.

When Bowden and Britt come in, she asked about the baby. Casey gets Halstead at the same time she started to crash and needed to go back in the OR. Another bleeding that wasn't detected, a common thing in medicine these days.

Meanwhile, Severide searches for the files that apparently were deleted from Dawson's computer. He goes to his study buddy but she gives him some advice to get a tech. He then goes to Mouse and gets something on the computer. Thought it might have been Susan but it turned out to be Duffy.

Duffy acts like nothing is wrong and gets to Med to give Dawson a get well gift til Severide talks to him. Duff deleviers boxes of the files and leaves him a note. Severide gets a bad feeling and heads over there but sees cops at the bridge and who's there? Duffy with a weight. Duff jumps and so does Severide too and saves him.

Not to forget, Otis and Hermann gets news that Molly's is being closed because of code viiaoltion. But with a help from Jimmy, getting his cousin to help, turns out that Molly's will be open for a very long time. SO TAKE THAT PORTLAND!!! STILL JEALOUS ABOUT NOT TAKING MICHAEL JORDAN!!!!

It was near the end that got a lot emotional and teary eye. After Dawson comes out from surgery, Casey talks to her and she cries. Casey comes out to talk to the guys and tells them thanks and they headed out. But it was when Casey and Bowden looked at each other, I thought that Bowden was going to hug him and Casey was going to cry. But instead they sat down the hall and just sat there quietly. I say that Bowden is like a father figure to both Dawson and Casey and Co.

Everyone at Molly's Hermann gives a great speech about what had just happen. But it was his speech to Dawson that it the waterworks at full stream when he told her a story about how him and his wife lost their first baby but gain five and one that is already grown up. Words aren't enough to express that scene but the best word would probably outstanding.

Dawson and Casey talk about how this will effect them and to him it doesn't even he wanted kids. He only wants her and that what makes him happy.

Also to throw this out, 51 gets a call of an electrical wires down at a party, a kid is in an air castle. The teams gets there and Severide saves him within minutes. After the kid comes to the House and gives Severide a thank you card that he made. Severide was grateful and tells him that he made his day.

This episode was outstanding! The emotions were riding higher than ever. Hands down Jessie and Monica's best performance. And can't forget David Eigenberg was outstanding , McQueen who's character Jimmy is growing into a really good candidate with some tricks and even having a crush on Chili. And what about that guy who came back from the dead, I freaked out.

Overall, I give this episode a 10/10.

Next week's episode seems like a one not to miss. Looks like the House is going to get cleaned up and not in a good way.

You can catch Chicago Fire Tuesday nights at 10/9c on NBC.

A Hunt in the Woods: Blindspot "Set on Tour"




As one tattoo leads to a former FBI agent, it not only leads to a search and captured but also to stay alive as well.

When Weller finds a file on a former FBI agent Sal Guerrero, he wants to capture him and see what he knows about Jane. Mayfair won't talk about him and thinks that he's hard to capture.

That leads to Patterson finding the next thing in the tattoos, one that looks like a shell, and a county in Michigan to a remote place in the woods. The only problem is that the residents there don't like authority. But Weller and the gang will take the chance with a made up excuse just to get in.

When the get there, they find a guy who turns out to be Guerrero. A set up? I think not. Someone wants them to find Guerrero for a reason. Soon, the residents slashed their tires and gas-line and taken their guns. So they decided to walk their way out. They come off with a few more men shooting at them.

Jane spots a place that will help them get to safety. An oil tower, which is on her back near her neck area. They walk up there with an empty place. But they come to a floor board and find a box with a lock and used the named KURT to open it.

They find supplies from water to vest and even guns. Also a map to where it leads to a helicopter. But Weller finds out that Guerrero is being traced and takes his watch and the team splits into two. Weller and Zapata goes one way while Jane and Reade follow the map direction.

Jane shows that she really wanted to go with Weller. There's a bond between these two that still have me scratching my head, in a good way.

Jane and Reade hack up to a Ranger station where they find another map, which leads to the helicopter. But they came back to wait for Weller and Zapata. Both come in fire but Jane and Reade come into more fire with a lot of men shooting at them.

Guerrero is protected by these guys for no reason. But everyone gets together and after Zapata is rescued by the town sheriff. Weller and them get going and made it to the helicopter where Jane drive it out.

Bring in Guerrero in, Weller makes Mayfair interrogate him, but did nothing of the sort and left to her office. It caused Weller to get upset and made Mayfair spill a little bit of the bean but only mentioning Project Daylight.

Meanwhile, we get to see Patterson get out of the office and work on another clue with her boyfriend, David. He wants to move in with her but she doesn't think they would make it past 6 months. Well, he gets involved with the tattoos and they break one. As they try to break a code from a book, they get caught by Mayfair.

This episode was such a thrill. I couldn't get enough of Lou Diamond Phillips as Guerrero. When he plays a bad guy, he plays a bad guy. Even though he didn't do much of killing and such, just his dialogue was outstanding.

Seems like next week that hell is breaking loose and a war is coming. I think its going to be one hell of an episode next week.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

Here's a promo for next week's episode.

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

Beyond The Events Around Us: Weekend Catch Up Part 13

iZombie "Even Cowgirls Get the Black and Blue

When a murder of a country singer is found strangled, takes on as a country singer and a very good one at that.

Not only does Liv get that country singer in her but she also wrote a song based on her relationship with Major, who I thought they were going to break their relationship off again. They asked the boyfriend and even the creepy bar owner who was hitting on her but in the end, it turned out that the victim was just at the wrong place at the wrong time.

Turned out to be a robber, who just pulled a robbery at a store and dropped the gun at the same neighborhood.

Not only does Liv rediscovers love, but Clive experiences it to with an FBI agent looking into missing high profile cases. Also I can't put more stress on it that I've very much happy to see Peyton and Liv back together as friends. And just thought Liv and Major were done for, they came back to each others arms, or should I say that Major came back to her arms.

I enjoyed this episode so much that some of the phrases that Liv keeps say stuck in my head, mostly the "well, butter my button and call it a biscuit

Overall, I give this episode a 7.5/10

You can catch iZombie Tuesday nights at 9/8c on The CW.


Arrow "Beyond Redemption"  

When a task force is killing and stealing drug money, its up to the Green Arrow and the team to stop them and get some help from Lance. Also Oliver makes it official on running for Star City mayor.

For an episode to tell this kind of story, it feels more like a fell in than anything. Yeah the criminals were cops trying to make more at what they are making. I can understand that. I feel like the only thing that got done in this episode was that Oliver and the team got new digs, Laurel shows Quentin that Sara is alive.

But probably the only thing that got the episode any taste was the head butting of Oliver and Quentin, not only asking for his recommendation for Mayor but talking about Quentin's relationship with Dahrk. I will say that this was Paul Blackthorne's best performance so far. He had a lot on his plate more than any other character in this episode.

Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.

You can catch Arrow Wednesday nights at 8/7c on The CW.


Code Black: "Doctor With Borders" 

When a epidemic of respiratory illness comes to the hospital, Neal and the team race against time to treat and figure out what this illness is. Also a patient comes in with barbwire in his leg.

This episode showed it's best for Raza Jaffery as Dr. Hudson. On top of the epidemic, finding out that his mother is suffering too. He deals with not only professional but also personal when his dad butts in as well. I was very astonished from Jaffery's performance.  

It soon turned out that it's not a deadly virus but a chlorine based where it burns through the throat, creating air from getting out.

Also watching Angus and Mario butted heads again was once again okay. These two are a bit of a bossom buddies rivalry. I have to hand it to Angus that he stepped up and never backed down from what he thinks and believes.

Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

You can catch Code Black Sunday nights at 10/9c on CBS.


Heroes Reborn: "June 13th Part 1" 

In this part one of the two part episode, there were questions that were answered in this stunning episode.

Noah and Hiro tracks back to the event of June 13th 2014 at the Submit. Mohinder receives a message from Angela about Erica's plan. Noah and Hiro try to find Claire until Noah relives some of the events that happen before the event.

Angela gets to Hiro and Noah and informs him that Claire had called her that she's in the hospital. Noah goes with Angela while Hiro stops Harris along with Mohinder. They couldn't stop the bombs from going off.

Meanwhile, Noah finds out that Claire has died not from the blast, but from childbirth. And here's another shocker for ya, they're twins, a boy and a girl. Noah finally understand why he couldn't remember the event that took place, because he was hiding the whereabouts of Claire's kids.

Both of the kids were gone to separate ways, Nathan went to a nurse and Malina went to someone else. Nathan is who we know as Tommy.

So the point of this season I'm guessing is Save the Cheerleader's children, save the world.

This was hands down the best episode so far. There were a lot of questions answered and even though there are still more, it was literally the best hour of television, along side with The Blacklist.

Overall, I give this episode a 10/10.

You can catch Heroes Reborn Thursday nights at 8/7c on NBC.


The Player "The Norseman" 

This show is more entertaining than any other new drama show. After watching this episode, I can't believe that a lot of viewers aren't watching it.

When a bet is on to take down a killer, Alex not only takes him down but does it twice. The killer is more of witchcraft kinda of guy that needs to kill for the spirit. But after Alex take him down once, the killer gets revenge and takes his niece to do the final task.

Alex is furious and goes after the guy. After a few bumps and cuts, he comes and beats the crap out of him. But doesn't kill him or take him into custody. Alex stop him from killing after midnight and won the bet. That leaves The Dealer to come and clean up.

Oh my god, Wesley Snipes is amazing. I can never tell if he's good or bad but that fight scene was superb the best fight scene in a while.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch The Player Thursday night's at 10/9c on NBC.

A Battle of Rights: Doctor Who "The Zygon Invasion"




What a perfect time for this episode to air in the US on Halloween night.

This episode opens up with a flashback to The Day of the Doctor when the Three Doctors made UNIT and the Zygons made peace. We see Osgood back and making a video of how they made a peace treaty, along with showing a box to indicate if anything goes wrong.

The Zygons kidnapped Osgood, and it's up to the Doctor, Clara, and UNIT to scatter to free her. The Doctor goes to the Middle East, Clara stays in London, and Kate goes to New Mexico. But when things start to rattle, and the Doctor has caught a Zygon, a surprise comes about and leaves the episode with a giant cliffhanger as the Doctor is on his Presidential plane.

It's hands down one of the best cliffhanger episodes yet. I didn't even see this one coming at all. Who knew that Clara was a Zygon and was held in a pod? I was stunned and amazed.
And I should say that it's great to see Osgood back, even if she is a hybrid of a Zygon and Human, something that's been a lot in this season. Osgood is one of my favorite supporting characters, even with her wardrobe, wearing the scarf to the questions on her collar.

And I couldn't get enough of the Doctor, not only playing Amazing Grace in the TARDIS but also confronting kids at a park. It looks so weird and wrong from a stranger's perspective, but it was hilarious.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch Doctor Who on Saturday nights at 9/8c on BBC America.
