American Crime
I’m really loving this show still, and we’ve learned that one of the “attackers” is in the closet, and the boy that was raped may be too, and may have to the party to hook up with the other kid. Still, it seems something went very very wrong. This show has me hooked.

American Horror Story
I actually was okay with the end of “Hotel,” which was one of the best seasons since the original. I hated that Liz Taylor had to die, but at least she and the others got a happy ending. I’m still fuming that they killed Queenie, and since she died there shouldn’t she too have become a ghost?

The Fosters
“The Fosters” is back, and so far I still can do without Jesus on this show. They should have killed him off when they had the chance. Steff has a cancer scare, and Brandon and Callie are back to trying to deny their feelings as Callie was officially adopted. Gag me, I’m over these two! I’m heartbroken for Jude what with Connor determined to go live with his mom.

The Flash
I’m convinced more than ever that Dr Zoom is Barry’s father in the alternate universe. I haven’t seen tonights episode yet. I don’t know how I feel about them bringing in the Wally character, who eventually becomes The Flash as well.

Supergirl
“Supergirl” is probably my favorite show right now, but I don’t know how I feel about the “Glee” reunion they have going on between Marnie and Rider. Blah! I want Kara to realize they guy who has a thing for her at CatCo is who she should be with!

Pretty Little Liars
“PLL” is still interesting, but I don’t know how I feel about the girls being set up as the killer. Is one of them actually the killer? I doubt it. Also when are the creepy texts going to start up? Or are they?

So “Pretty Little Liars” returned with it’s jump the shark, I mean timeline jump season. The girls returned because Charles, aka Charlotte, was about to be released, and they were needed to testify. Only Aria womanned up and admitted she didn’t want to see her out, the others went along and did what Ally asked, forgiving her. It didn’t take but 24 hours for Charlotte to turn up dead and now the liars are all suspects.

I didn’t hate it as much as I thought I would. Aria, Spencer and Hannah all split from their respective boyfriends, but I felt like they hinted that Spencer and Caleb were now dating behind Hannah’s back. Emily is also lying about how great she is doing and is working in a bar.

Who killed Charlotte? There are so many possibilities, and I’m sure we’ll see others from the past make their way into the season as suspects too.

So this post is just about some of the finales that have happened and my thoughts on them.

I pretty much called the Charles twist on “Pretty Little Liars” early on, only I thought it would be Sarah and never suspected they’d bring back CeCe and have her be Charles. We got a lot of answers, which was great. It also pretty much left the show in a hole as to where to go next, so they’ve jumped 5 years ahead and now are being terrorized by someone else, though we don’t know who. It looks like Alison, who is now a teacher herself, has a new stalker. I’m not sure if I like the idea of the time jump. Time will tell. I hope they still keep the parents around.

Over on “The Fosters,” I am thrilled that Rita was cleared and Callie finally got adopted, but this Brandon thing. Oy! I’m so over the two of them. Also it looks like I was absolutely right about the new foster brother’s brother being the driver who hit the Fosters all along. Now we got a new Jesus, who again I would have been happy if he just stayed away. Though maybe it can take some of the focus of Marianna, who I was screaming at for thinking her boyfriend would forgive her. “Well I’ve forgiven myself,” . . . good for you! You still cheated.

Finally over to the amazing “Devious Maids” finally. Holy cow! First I do have to say I was a bit disappointed with Sebastian being the killer. Unexpected, yes. However really? He just went that nuts all of the sudden? Meh! I was sad that they killed Michael off, and giving Spence Amensia and bringing Perry back . . . the worst! Technically Rosie is still his wife, though maybe that got nullified by her own dead husband returning. Oy oy! Of course we know Zoila won’t die, and I really have hope the baby will turn out to be Javier’s and he will come back to her. Or maybe her near death will bring him back. Oh yeah, Adrian can’t be dead! He is the best!

Posted by Dustin on 08.10.2015 at 12:39 pm

As usual just trying to keep up with some quick thoughts on the shows I’ve been watching!

Big Brother 17
Worst – season – ever. They’ve at least started fighting, but watching these people is dullsville.

Devious Maids
I feel really bad for Carmen getting all “Irene Cara’d” by her label. Maybe she can pull a Prince and change her name to a symbol. Meanwhile Zoila is also about to get the old heave-hoe thanks to Genevieve’s new guy, who I hate. Go back to announcing the dog show dude! Loved that they had Spence counceling Taylor and not screwing her, but what is Michael thinking fooling around with his ex? She’s insane! Maybe that’s it, she’s insane and he’s not doing anything. I hope so.

Extant
I’ve gone from loving the show again to tolerating it. Molly’s son is creepy, and the humanics are basically going all terminator. I can see that the humans will have to team up with the aliens most likely to get rid of the robot problem that is coming.

The Fosters
So it would appear the mystery of who hit the Fosters car has been solved, and it was the owner of the other car’s kid all along, who lied about it being stolen. I was so sure it would be AJ’s brother. Now poor Rita has been possibly set up by her Girls United for beating them. Her own actions with her daughter though make it seem possible that she is an abuser, but I think they just want us to think that.

Falling Skies
I’m hating the turn on the latest episode with the Virginia regimen going totally insane on Tom and his men. It seems obvious they are actually under alien control. Something is wrong with that female captain for sure. There aren’t many episodes left and they seem no closer to winding down when we began this season.

Mistresses
I HATE that Calysta and Joss have turned on one another. This makes me so sad. It’s obvious that either her male assistant or the model her hubby was screwing killed her husband. Karen getting pregnant is going to be interesting, and I still don’t care about April’s story. At least her daughter has the boyfriend/principal’s number.

Pretty Little Liars
I’m ready for the finale and the reveal of Charles, and if we don’t get a reveal then I may need a new TV from the things I throw at it!

Proof
Definitely liking the show a bit more now that we’re exploring the woman with the green scarf warning the Doc to stop looking. Ooh! What isn’t she supposed to find?

Under The Dome
It was clear that the end of the world was orchestrated and that the dome is now just a large TV set showing those inside what they want them to see. You know what I want to see? Pretty much the entire kinship wiped out.

The Whisperers
Like PLL, I hope we get some answers soon. I really dislike the president, who knows his kid has been a target of drill yet still wanted to jail the only people who have leads and a real connection on whatever or whoever drill is.

Zoo
I all but stopped watching this one. I just became bored and figured I’d do a marathon once it was over, if I cared enough to go back.

Posted by Dustin on 07.22.2015 at 7:56 pm

Big Brother 17
With Jeff out of the house, it’s one less bit of eye candy gone. I didn’t think I would be, but I’m not on the crazy dentist’s side. I hope he wins the whole thing given he’s been made the go to pawn. This week Audrey has at least finally brought some drama into the game. The feeds and after dark have been terribly boring.

Extant
I can’t believe how much I’m enjoying this show, even with all the changes. I’m pretty sure the ratings are still terrible and it won’t get a third season, so I’m enjoying it while it lasts.

The Fosters
I absolutely HATE this whole Callie and AJ romance. This is so “been there done that” on a show that isn’t that old. It’s Brandon all over. Nip it in the bud and move on. I still have this feeling that AJ’s brother is the one who hit the Fosters. Loved the last episode that dealt with Anna’s post-pardum, and glad they don’t have her using again. A re-cast Jesus will soon be showing up, but wish he wouldn’t. I don’t like the character and haven’t missed him at all.

Falling Skies
I’ve actually been digging this past season. Why did they take so long to get good again? Pope going crazy was long overdue. I hope Tom takes his ass out!

Mistresses
I’m still loving Calista’s character. She and Joss are owning this show right now so much that I honestly don’t miss Savy. Sure if they could bring her back I would love it, but I am shocked it’s still so good without her. Karen’s storyline is getting sticky, and something tells me the wife will end up dying and the husband will be left with tremendous guilt. April’s storyline, we can all see she’s going to end up with Zack at some point. As usual, boring!

Pretty Little Liars
This show is starting to annoy me. Every week it’s been someone different is A, and now we are back to, surprise, Charles! Charles is alive and is A. I’m thinking it’s either that Andrew guy, who was dismissed way too easily, or somehow it will be Ezra. If it’s Ezra then that would be a sick twist.

Proof
I’ve started watching TNT’s “Proof” and really enjoy it, I’m just not sure where it’s going. Some episodes have been better than others, but it seems to be lacking a story stringing them together other than the main character’s own near death experience.

Under The Dome
Please let this be the last season, as this show has become awful. It’s now just “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” meets “The Stepford Wives.” I expect better than re-hashed movies from something based on Steven King’s work.

The Whisperers
So we learned Drill, or someone like him, has been on earth before. Basically Drill’s planet is dying (ala E.T.) and they seem to try and be invading earth so they can live here. I’m going to hang in there, but this show needs to amp it up a little. It needs to get away from the E.T. similarities. Ooh, E.T. is bad this time so it’s very different. Not really!

Zoo
I started watching this mini-series event, which I felt started out strong, but now I’m a little tired of it. I hope this doesn’t become a new series like “Under the Dome,” which also started out as a one season mini-series event too. End it on a high note please!

Posted by Dustin on 07.05.2015 at 5:52 pm

Trying to keep up with everything, really quick thoughts on everything I’m watching . . .

Big Brother 17
I’m just not feeling this season. I keep watching and hope I’ll get hooked by something, anything. So glad Jace is gone and really want The Rockstar Dentist to go too!

Extant
I actually really enjoyed the reboot and where they are taking it, but her husband’s partner . . . ohhhh she is a witch!

The Fosters
I’m not digging that Callie is into yet another one of her foster brothers. Definitely feel bad for Brandon getting the boot from his camp.

Falling Skies
I have yet to see the season premier, I tried real hard to watch last weekend but couldn’t get into it. I’ve meant to watch it again all week.

Mistresses
Absolutely loving the new character Calista! She’s great. April’s story is still the weakest, and Karen’s is just another twist on her story from the first season.

Pretty Little Liars
I don’t think Charle’s is dead and if Sarah isn’t Charles, then she is on his team. Though the last show seemed to try and make it seem like she couldn’t be Charles . . .

Under The Dome
So It seems we are back to aliens are behind the dome and trying to take over the Earth again. That’s the only thing I can think with the whole “hive mentality” they have going on.

The Whisperers
Like with UTD, I am back to thinking Drill is an alien force.

So this is just a catch-up post for “The Fosters” and “Pretty Little Liars.” On “The Fosters,” I really liked Callie working things out with Jude’s dad, and the speech Robert gave her about how he was her father as he raised her. I also loved that Robert finally realized he’s been treating his wife like his second choice since Callie came into their lives. I really didn’t like how he kept making it seem like he settled because he couldn’t have the woman he wanted. I also detest the pre-madonna that Brandon has been stuck working with at the summer music program and knew she would sabotage him the minute she was able to. Eff dat beyotch!

I still worry that AJ’s missing brother is the one who hit the Fosters’ car in the mid-season finale. He is clearly in hiding for something. I also think Anna is going to dump her kid and run. I really hope Marianna isn’t pregnant from her night of poor judgement!

Over to “Pretty Little Liars,” most of the current shows have focused on the girls and their inability to adjust back to normal life after Charles. By the end of the last episode Alison and Jason had enough info to confront their father and get answers. From the spoilers below, it definitely seems like they’ve spun the twin-twist from the books and made it Jason’s twin instead of Alison’s. I still think Jason may be in on this with Charles, but something also rubs me wrong with Sarah. I think Charle’s obsession with Alison may have caused him to start to become Alison’s twin . . . which would be an interesting twist on the twin twist!

Spoilers for the next few shows for both below . . .

“The Fosters” returned last night and shockingly nobody died! I thought that was the big cliff-hanger of the mid-season finale in the winter? I knew the actor who played Jesus was out, but I didn’t think they’d kill him. I did think it would be Anna who died, but she didn’t.

The show picked up a few weeks after the accident. Anna kept had and kept her baby, and Marianna is helping her take care of it as she was badly injured in the accident. However I get the feeling she’s not feeling the kid for some reason and it won’t be long before she takes off. Meanwhile Jesus went to that wrestling academy/school.

Brandon has quit the band and gone to his music camp for the summer, and it looks like he could have a new love interest with a girl he is butting heads with. Meanwhile Callie has lost her internship at the youth center, which she needs to graduate, because she let a runaway sleep there and he ripped them off. Dumb! The runaway, AJ, is going to become the new foster kid for the Fosters from the spoilers and promos. Frankly I don’t think Jesus needs to be replaced, there are enough kids on the show as is.

The Quinns were not seen in this episode, but will be in upcoming ones. Also I expect to see the Girls United crowds again too. Jude meanwhile has his romance with his friend Connor going on, but he refuses to be labeled as gay because he simply wants to just be “Jude” for awhile, as he’s tired of labels.

All in all, I thought it was a good episode. We still don’t know who hit the Foster kids. Something tells me it is AJ’s brother. He was supposed to runaway with his brother, but his brother never showed. The car that hit them was also stolen . . .

Over to last week’s “Liars,” what a great hour! I was worried they would leave them in that awful bunker for a good part of the season, but by the end they got out. Most in town think their kidnapper is Andrew, but we don’t know yet if Andrew is also Charles, the other DiLaurentis boy. Is he Jason’s twin? I wasn’t clear on that. I do think Jason is in on it, his actions with the cops were suspicious. Only the liars seem to know that Charles is Ali’s other brother, and we should find out tonight who they share that info with. I’ll be shocked if they tell the police something!

With Mona alive, Alison and the girls are all free. In the bunker they found another kidnapped girl that Charles was making to pretend to be Alison too. I don’t know why, but I thought maybe SHE was Charles, and acted like a kidnapped girl in order to escape the authorities. However Spencer thinks she’s a missing girl they learned about awhile back.

Spoilers for both shows below!

“The Fosters” spring finale is tonight, and tomorrow is “The Pretty Little Liars” finale that promises to finally reveal the latest A. Something tells me we won’t really find out who A is though, just get some other insane reveal.

Spoilers for both episodes below!

So I’ve been trying to play catch-up with shows still and am now caught up on everything but “Resurrection” I believe. Below are my thoughts on “Pretty Little Liars” and “The Fosters.”

On “The Fosters” we finally learned what happened between Jude and Connor on the school camping trip. Supposedly they brought girls into their tent and made out with them. Really? I’m not so sure I’m buying that. Jude only said this in the office in front of Connor’s dad when it became an issue again. We don’t know what he really told Lena. I think he lied to help Connor out and Lena didn’t say anything. In the end Connor still hates Jude for being a tattle tale.

Robert’s desire to gain custody of Callie was not a surprise. What is odd is that they are going to court over custody of an almost grown kid. At this stage in her life it really should be what she wants, and she’s made that very clear.

Callie’s little sister/Little Snow White going totally crazy on her and walking into traffic to kill herself is something I never saw coming. However looking back, it’s clear she’s had emotional issues from the start. How quickly she clung to Callie, how she told Callie her life was all school work and never any fun, the signs were there. I just hope Robert or his wife don’t use Sophia to guilt Callie into coming to live with them.

Ana ending up pregnant was a big “wow” moment too. Is Mike the father? Also what ever happened with Mike’s old girlfriend that Brandon boinked? I kept expecting her to turn up pregnant too.

Over to “Pretty Little Liars,” Mona’s body has yet to be found. We did see it in a trunk at the end of the Christmas episode, but is she really dead? After all Alison wasn’t really dead. I sorta hope Mona is able to return one day.

Hannah’s mom Ashley has always been hard up for jobs, but now she’s working with and boinking Alison’s sister Jason? Ew! I loved Hannah telling her mother that Pastor Ted was a good guy and good for her, unlike Jason. I felt so bad for Ted when he proposed and Ashley couldn’t give him an immediate yes. I hope Ashley likes getting blackmailed by -A!

I can’t say I’m sorry to see Paige go to L.A.. She was getting on my nerves. Now I just hope we don’t have to watch Emily pine over her for the entire season. Something tells me the new caterer that Ezra hired will end up helping her get over Paige. Emily usually isn’t single for very long on this show.

Aria’s tell-all-letter that she wrote to get accepted into college that’s come back to haunt her might be the lamest of the secret’s A’s held over any of these girls’ heads. Sometimes I just think “If they told the truth then they’d be free of -A!” This is one of those moments where if she just explained it to Ezra that he’d likely understand what she did.

Finally, the fact that the girls still seem to think Alison is -A from behind bars is annoying as well. Come on! I’m starting to wonder if Paige really did get on that flight to L.A., or is she hiding in Rosewood playing for the -A team?

Spoilers for the next few episodes of both shows below!
