The Good Fight: Season One Finale -"Chaos"

As a huge fan of Robert & Michelle King's "The Good Wife", I couldn't help but fall in love with this spin off. A lot of stuff went down during the first season and the finale was a bit chaotic. In "Chaos", Dylan Stack (Jason Biggs), a technology lawyer who had previously appeared in a 2012 episode of The Good Wife comes to Diane for help claiming he was about to be framed for cyber terrorism. Lucca takes the code in a flash to her ex lover, Colin (Justin Bartha) who works at the Department of Justice who then gives the flash to Dincon who inserts it in a computer.

Things start going wrong from here. They arrest Lucca as an accessory but eventually let her go when Stack gets caught red handed as the culprit. Diane and Kurt decide to give their relationship another try after Kurt gets involved in a carjacking that leads him to the hospital. Diane almost passes out thinking he died and she realizes that she really loves him and isn't over him. When she rushes to the hospital, there's a call back to Will Gardner's death with the guy on the bed with one shoe missing. Goosebumps all over again. She ends up spending the night at his place, we all know what that means. *Inserts winking emoji*.

Meanwhile, Maia's father is planning an escape from Chicago and possibly the US when he gets information that Maia will get sentenced to jail for five years for Perjury. It's either he takes the 35 years deal or they both go to jail. He agrees to take this deal but still flees which leads to Maia's arrest at the end of the episode. It was an almost perfect episode but there were a few glitches. Why did Dincon insert the flash drive into the computer instead of taking it to the IT department to go through, but I guess this needed to happen for the rest of the story to come together. I hope Lucca and Colin work out whatever issue they have because they really fit as a couple and have the perfect amount of chemistry. I loved Maia's court scene where she definitely let Dincon have it! Way to go Maia!! She's really becoming a badass lawyer.

 I also want to see more of Barbara in the next season, not just in court and having conversations with Adrian (Delroy Lindo), I think her character has a lot of potential and maybe we should see more about her personal life. This first season has been very strong and I hope they get better next season with more character development especially for Barbara and maybe Adrian.

 I'm still waiting for a cameo from Alicia Florrick, which I hope would take place in the next season. For the fans of The Good Wife, that cameo would mean everything! I ship Lucca and Maia's friendship and I'm sure Lucca is going to come for her rescue with full force next season. I had no doubts about The Good Fight, it has definitely lived up to its predecessor and I'm sure it'll get better next season.

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 c...

"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. Image via nbc.com The warehouse was a spot...
