The Gifted Mid Season Finale- "eXploited"

The mutants have been through so much this season from losing some of their members to hiding and running away from the Sentinel Services. In the episode before the mid-season finale, the mutants saved a few refugees and unknowingly let in a crazy telepath, Esme, into their fold. Esme is able to manipulate the mutants and the Struckers and by the end of the episode is reunited with her family. She gets Caitlyn & Reed to go on a mission to Agent Turners house and convince him to transfer the captured mutants from Trask Industries and gets the mutants to take her to where the transport will take place. Esme revealed her true powers and she's not only able to read minds but control them. She also has two evil sisters who help her take down the Sentinel Services and break the other mutant prisoners free. I had a bad feeling about Esme when she kept insisting that she needed to get her family and it became obvious that she was not team Underground when she manipulated everyone. The question now is "What are her plans?", "Is she a mutant extremist?".
I was a little bummed out when Sonya was shot by Dr. Campbell although I wasn't so surprised. I had begun to like her character and her very unique powers. She made amends with Clarice after she wiped her memories and they became closer before her death. It seems like Agent Turner may be taking a different approach towards the mutants after his wife made him realize that he was doing more harm than good in his daughter's name. I hope we get more information on who Esme really is and what she plans to do. So far, it hasn't been a terrible season and I hope they get renewed for a second season. The 2 hour season finale of the Gifted airs January 15, 2018

"Who Killed Julia Montague?"- Bodyguard Finale

BBC's Bodyguard has been one of the most satisfying series I've seen so far, this year. Over six episodes, they delivered a Limited Series that kept you on the edge of your seat and wondering what was next for Richard Madden's David Budd. David meets up with Julia's PA, Chanel, who was fired in the first episode because he was suspicious of her involvement in the bombings and he was right. She had a hand in it. Chanel set David up and he ended up getting ambushed and kidnapped by the leader of the criminal group, Luke Aitkens. The police are finally  able to piece the puzzle and they findd out that the ex-soldier who tried to shoot Julia was David's friend and this raises an alarm. They're convinced that Budd was indeed behind the bombing. Budd wakes up alone and realizes that he is strapped to a bomb vest with his thumb taped to the activating button. He is unaware that he is currently being investigated by the police and uses someone's phone to call for...

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...

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...
