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.

"Who Killed Julia Montague?"- Bodyguard Finale

BBC's Bodyguard has been one of the most satisfying series I've seen so far, this year. Over six episodes, they delivered a Limited Series that kept you on the edge of your seat and wondering what was next for Richard Madden's David Budd. David meets up with Julia's PA, Chanel, who was fired in the first episode because he was suspicious of her involvement in the bombings and he was right. She had a hand in it. Chanel set David up and he ended up getting ambushed and kidnapped by the leader of the criminal group, Luke Aitkens. The police are finally  able to piece the puzzle and they findd out that the ex-soldier who tried to shoot Julia was David's friend and this raises an alarm. They're convinced that Budd was indeed behind the bombing. Budd wakes up alone and realizes that he is strapped to a bomb vest with his thumb taped to the activating button. He is unaware that he is currently being investigated by the police and uses someone's phone to call for...

Goodbye Mike & Rachel- Suits' Seventh Season Finale Review

  Suits is one of my favorite Legal Drama's and for some reason, I'm still very invested in the show after 7 seasons. I don't think they've had any bad season and they've done such a great job with the growth and development of the major characters but the time to say goodbye to Mike and Rachel was finally here. Due to the fact that Meghan Markle would be getting married to Prince Harry, I guess it was a good time to wrap up her love story with Mike and they do this with the fairy tale wedding we've all been waiting for. Mike and Rachel have been an item since the first season and have been engaged since the fifth. They would have been married a season ago but were not able to because of Mike's time in prison. I always loved their chemistry and I was so sad to see them say goodbye and more than anything, I loved Mike and Harvey's relationship. It was so genuine and pure. The two final episodes of the final season of Suits aired back to back and...

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...
