Chicago PD Season Five Premiere- "Reform"

Image via NBC.com
Okay guys! I think it's time I let you all know that I'm  the biggest fan of Dick Wolfe's Chicago PD and it's my favorite ‪procedural at the moment. I was really looking forward to the return because my Wednesday night's never felt the same after the fourth season ended. The first episode of the fifth was really emotional especially because the case affected one of my favorites, Jay Halstead. So here's the story, the Intelligence Unit gets caught in the crossfire with a group of African American guys and Jay's bullet goes through one of the assailants, through a door and ends up hitting a little girl in a daycare. The whole case goes left because it becomes a race thing and they try to make Jay seem like a racist, when he really isn't. The culprit is eventually arrested and Jay is let off the hook. I love the fact that they didn't waste any time beating around the bush about the fact that Erin was no longer in the unit. Jay mentioned that he didn't get any call from her and Hank was shown talking to a therapist about how much he missed Erin, who was like a daughter to him. This came a bit as a shock for me because Hank isn't the type to talk to a therapist, but I'm happy he's making progress because he has a lot to work through, especially with the death of his son.

One of the most pivotal scenes in the episode was when Ruzek went ballistic over a black guy reaching for his phone. This made Atwater feel some type of way and Ruzek tried to apologize but he didn't really take it. Cameras have also been placed in the interrogation rooms and this is really going to affect the team, especially Voight and Olinsky, who sometimes take different measures to get answers from some of the people they arrest. Tracy S‪piridakos who plays Detective Hailey Upton has joined the Intelligence Unit and the cast of PD as a regular. After leaving PD last season to join Justice, Jon Seda is back as Detective Antonio Dawson, and I couldn't be happier. ASA Anna Valdez (Monica Barbaro) from justice will also be joining the PD cast. I don't think Jay is going to get over Lindsey anytime soon and I'm so bummed out Soopia Bush won't be returning because I really loved her character. This was a really good way to start the season and I'm really looking forward to watching new episodes every week. 

Welcome back Antonio!

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 ...
