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!

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...

"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. Image via nbc.com The warehouse was a spot...
