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

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...
