Game of Thrones Season Seven Episode 1 Review: Dragonstone

Image via cnn.com
After so many months of waiting, the seventh season of HBO's Game of Thrones premiered last night, July 16. Personally, I've been anticipating the return of this show and I couldn't be more excited to see The Lannister's, Starks, White Walkers and The Mother of Dragons back on my screen. So as we all know, Winter is finally here. Since the first season, most of what the characters talked about was the arrival of winter. The last season set in motion the activities that took place in the premiere. The opening scene, which included Arya murdering those involved in The Red Wedding, was very very shocking and satisfying to watch. It's obvious that Arya is out for blood and back on her kill list. She looked really bad ass walking away from the bodies.

Jon Snow is now the King of The North with Sansa by his side, Bran is now The Three Eyed Raven and Sam works in a Library at The Citadel. Sam has not been one of my favorite characters but he might be a part of something big soon. That creepy hand in a cell already confirms it. I kind of feel bad for Jamie because it seems like he doesn't agree with what his sister is doing. This is definitely going to be a problem in the near future. 
Euron Greyjoy, who killed his brother and took over The Iron Islands last season really seems like a crazy person. He has no remorse whatsoever killing his brother. His scene really cracked me up and I think he'll make a perfect team with Cersei.

Brienne and Tormund Giantsbane might have a sort of relationship soon but how does this benefit any of the characters? I guess we'll find out soon. I'm happy with the fact that The Hound didn't actually die and I'm really curious to see where his story line leads us. Did we catch that Ed Sheeran cameo? Amazing right? I thought we would see more of Daenerys since the episode is named "Dragon Stone" but it was not so. She, her entourage and her Dragons have finally crossed the Narrow Sea to the ancestral home of The Targaryan's. The episode ended with her saying "Can we begin?" and we know what she means by that right? There are few questions that need to be answered this season. What is Little Finger up to? Will Cersei murder more people? Will Bran get to Jon and Sansa? Game of Throne's will come to an end after the eight season and there are discussions for a possible spinoff. A new episode airs on Sunday, July 23.

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...

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...

Snowfall Season One Finale Review- "The Rubicon"

   There's no denying that this season has been intense for the four major characters and everyone around them. The first season of Snowfall was all over the place but the by the 8th episode, I was convinced the writers finally got their thoughts together. The pilot episode was good and I felt this was a show I was going to fall in love with, but it became a struggle to watch after the third episode.  They got my attention back after Leon was shot in the final scene of the 8th episode. Franklin got himself into a very dangerous business which I still think he hasn't fully realized. He wants to hustle hard and make sure he's mom doesn't have to bother herself about anything, but she's disappointed when she finds out about her son's extra curricular activities. The neighborhood knows that he's the boss and he's really all about the money.  Damson Idris brings his character of Franklin to life and I couldn't see anyone else playing this role. He's ...
