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...

"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.
