Suits Begins a New Chapter Without Meghan Markle & Patrick J. Adams

   When it was announced that Meghan Markle and Patrick J. Adams were leaving Suits, I was really bummed out because I truly loved their story line and wasn't ready to see the it end. I kept wondering how Aaron Korsh and the writers were going to come up with story lines to keep the viewers as invested as they were during the last seven seasons and adding Katherine Heigl to the cast didn't make me feel better. But, after seeing the eight season premiere, I have a different opinion about this new chapter and it's a good one.The season picks up right where we left off last season with Harvey and Robert Zane having a conversation after Mike and Rachel's wedding reception. They discuss the firm and the next steps to take concerning the Managing Partner position.
   During the course of the episode, we're introduced to Heigl's character, -Badass-no-nonsense-lawyer-who-cleans-up-Zane's-mess- Samantha Wheeler and before the end of the episode, she succeeded in getting into Harvey's office without his permission and telling him to kiss her ass. Feisty right? I was a bit skeptical about Heigl but after seeing the episode, I think she's going to do a great job with her character. There's obviously going to be a lot of rivalry and drama in Specter Litt, sorry Zane Specter Litt and a lot of them are going to include Samantha. It's also very obvious that Robert and Harvey are going to butt heads a lot in the forthcoming episodes. We all know Harvey loves getting his way and with Zane as Managing Partner, that would be a serious problem. For some reason, I'm excited about Amanda Schull's promotion to series regular and I'm loving her new found friendship with Donna.
   Heigl's Samantha is going to shake things up this season with Alex as her rival. They don't know it yet, but they're fighting for the same position of Name Partner. Kind of like Alicia Florrick and Cay Argos in the first season of The Good Wife. It's been seven seasons, I think it's time for Donna & Harvey's relationship to grow to something better. They kept teasing and teasing a relationship only to bring us back to where we started. Suits is one of those shows that I've never gotten tired of seeing. I'm still very invested but I'm hoping they wrap it up soon before they lose viewers and end up getting cancelled. I honestly enjoyed this season's premiere and I'm excited to see what's in store for these characters. A new episode of Suits airs Wednesday, July 25th.

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.
