Shooter Season Two Finale- "That'll Be The Day"

Image via CarteMatt.com
The second season of USA Network's Shooter was cut short due to an off-set injury sustained by Ryan Phillipe who plays the lead character Bob Lee Swagger. Instead of ten episodes, the eight episode will serve as the finale. The first season of Shooter focused on Bob Lee as he tried to exonerate himself after being framed for the assassinations of the Ukrainian President. This season, Swagger and his team were hunted by Solotov who ended up murdering most of them. The final scenes of the 8th episode including Solotov kidnapping an injured Bob Lee while Julie, Mary and Isaac try to escape the church which Solotov placed a bomb in. Senator Hayes was also revealed as the head of Atlas. In all honesty, this season of Shooter has been very underwhelming. I thought the first season was awesome and I expected the second season to be better, but it wasn't.

The first episode was good and I was hoping it would get more intense, but the entire season ended up being confusing and boring. The 8th episode was actually one of the best episodes this season, after episode one, and it served as a good cliffhanger. We're all wondering what Solotov is going to do with Bob Lee and if Mary, Isaac and Julie will survive, but are we really going to be able to sit through another Solotov story line? I don't think he's a good enough villain and his reasons for hunting down Bob Lee and his group don't really make sense to me. I'm still trying to understand the whole season because it was just confusing. I don't even know where to place Agent Memphis in this narrative. I loved the fact that they focused more on Julie and Bob Lee's marriage and how she was struggling with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. She had a more essential role which helped in the growth and development of her character. I wish this season was as good or better than the last and I really hope it gets renewed by USA Network.

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.
