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 cried for two episodes straight) which means

Review- Who's The Boss (2020)

Directed by Chinaza Onuzo, "Who's The Boss" follows Liah (Sharon Ooja) , an Advertising Executive who struggles to climb the cooperate ladder while juggling her mean and vindictive boss Hauwa (Funke Akindele- Bello). She takes the advice of her best friend Jumoke (Ini Dima-Okojie) and enlists her friend Lekan (Blossom Chukwujekwu), a known play boy into posing as her boss but ends up falling for him. It doesn't get any more cliche than this. After watching the first teaser for the Inkblot comedy, I was a little intrigued and looked forward to seeing how they were going to pull it off but sadly, it fell short in more ways than one. The biggest issue I had was the lead character and the actress cast to play it. Ooja has been typecast and I thought seeing her as the lead would show us a different side to the actress but my perception of her acting skills are worse than before. There's nothing worth remembering about this story and her acting did nothing to el
