Shooter Season 2 Premiere Review

Image via cartermatt.com
The last season of USA's shooter was filled with so much suspense and intense action, I was a bit bothered with how the second season would play out considering the story line. Bob Lee Swagger (Ryan Phillipe) was finally exonerated after being framed for the assassination of the President of the United States at the end of the season. This was such a sigh of relief because I would have hated it if they dragged it on to this season. The episode begins a year after the events of the last season and the Swagger family have moved to Texas to live a quiet life although Julie is having serious difficulties getting over what they went through last year. When he attends a ceremony in Germany to honor one of his friends in his former unit, things go south. Bob Lee and his old military group (including Isaac) are targeted and he takes it upon himself to find the people responsible.

They didn't waste time to get straight to the action few minutes into the episode which I really liked. Instead of building up to the attack, they showed it first before going back to days before it took place. This was a smart move because it definitely kept me on the edge of my seat. Part of the first episode was filmed in Germany which means this show is kicking things up a notch. I love the fact that there's a whole new conspiracy to unfold and new characters. The premiere was really good and fast paced, I can already tell that the rest of the season is going to be explosive! No pun intended. Now it's not all about Swagger clearing his name, it's about his old military unit and how someone or maybe an organization is after them. The only question now is, why? I have a feeling it has to do with something the unit was involved in years ago. "The Hunting Party" did a great job with drawing the audience into this action that is about to unfold. We just have to wait and see how it plays out, hopefully it'll be better than the last season. Shooter continues next Tuesday, July 25.

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.
