Being Mary Jane: Mid Season Finale- "Getting It"

Image via refinery29.com
The mid season finale of BET's Being Mary Jane aired on Tuesday, March 21 and Mary Jane finally got the anchor chair she had been hoping to get. Okay, let's have a recap of what went down since the beginning of this season. Mary Jane and her bestie, Kara, moved to New York for their gig at Great Day USA. MJ was promised the anchor chair after the great Ronda (Valerie Pettiford) leaves but she didn't get it, MJ's enemy from CNN Justin (Michael Ealy) gets hired at Great Day USA and she thinks he came to get her fired or just make her life a living hell, but it turned out not being so. MJ has a new boyfriend, Lee (Chike Okonkwo) who has two kids with his lesbian baby mother, Niecy broke up with Dante after she gives back her settlement money and Kara is in love with a former football player who is much younger than her. The mid season finale "Getting It" is all about MJ turning the big 4-0. Justin finds out that Ronda's story about cyber bullying is fake and apparently he planned it from the beginning just so MJ could take her place on the Anchor chair as the face of Great Day USA. He shared a kiss with MJ on the last episode but they agreed to stop and keep it professional.

It dawns on Lee that he might have three kids on two different planets which makes him have second thoughts about having a child with MJ. He says he feels trapped. He leaves angrily after MJ throws a tea cup at him. Ronda is placed on suspension after Justin informs Garret about the fake story which means MJ is getting the chair. Yayyyy!! While at the office, MJ and Justin have sex on the table she'll broadcast from the following day. Way to go MJ! In a room filled with cameras? What if someone walked in? Anyways, I still don't trust Justin. What's his end game here? Ronda somehow convinces the bosses that Kara, as her producer is also guilty, so Kara is placed on suspension which makes Mary Jane feel so terrible after getting the job she had always dreamt about. Ronda tells MJ to watch her back just before leaving and before MJ goes on air, Lee watches Justin brush hair from MJ's face. He knows something is up. There are a lot of questions boiling up after watching the first half of this season. Will MJ and Lee work things out and have the baby? Will Kara get her job back? I feel so bad for her and I really want her to win. Will Ronda return for revenge? What's Justin's motive? I love Michael Ealy but he really seems like an evil person here. Does he have something up his sleeve? All this questions and more will be answered when Being Mary Jane returns July 18.

SUITS: Season 6 finale

        The 6th season of suits has been quite an emotional one with Mike's would be wedding with Rachel, his going to Prison and Rachel's death row case. Death row cases can get really sad especially if the suspect is innocent which was the case of Leonard Bailey (Glenn Plummer) who was accused of murdering two people. After staying behind bars for 12 years, Leonard Bailey was finally exonerated with the help of Rachel and Jessica (Gina Torres). During this episode, a major character said goodbye to the show. Gina Torres decided to leave Suits to film another TV Show 'Catch' and it was quite emotional. This episode showed a different side of Jessica Pearson, she put her pro Bono case first before the firm and fought for the freedom of Leonard Bailey.          Gina Torres will no longer be a series regular and I was happy her character wasn't killed off like Will Gardner in the Good Wife, (I cried for two episodes straight) which means

"Don't Tell Mama"- The Shocking Sharp Objects Season Finale

   Sharp Objects easily tops the list of my all time favorite TV Series. The HBO Limited Series aired it eight and final episode last night and it's something I'll probably never forget. I'm trying so hard to find the right words to describe this amazing show and the phenomenal acting from Amy Adams, Patricia Clarkson and Eliza Scanlen. They were just too perfect. Throughout the season, we've all been trying to figure out who the killer was in this whodunnit and I had so many theories. I never believed it was John Keene because most times, it's always the person you least expect that'll end up being the perpetrator. My first suspect was Alan (Henry Czerny), Adora's husband and Amma's father. I thought the only reason he would venture out to killing teenage girls was due to the fact that he was no longer as had a bond with his daughter and his loveless marriage but I was so wrong. Then I thought it was the Police Chief, Bill who was in cahoots with Ado

Chicago Justice: Series Premiere/Crossover Episode-"Fake"

Image via imdb.com I looked forward to seeing Chicago Justice after it was announced because I love the One Chicago universe even though I'm yet to see the other shows, i'm very familiar with their stories and characters. I'm a crazy fan of Chicago PD so I'm going to binge watch all the episodes of Chicago Fire, but I don't think I'll be able to see Chicago Med. Medical shows are too emotional for me. With Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, I don't know where to start from, but I'll binge watch from season one to eighteen whenever I can for sure.  The four part crossover started with an episode on Chicago Fire and concluded in the season premiere of Chicago Justice. There is a fire at a warehouse and the Chicago Fire crew think it's an accident but Severide (Taylor Kinney) finds metal wedges shoved under the door which means whoever started the fire wanted everyone trapped inside, so its arson.
