Arrow sounds great.
ReplyDeletePoor Astrid, Stephen always keeps bailing on her.
They should have cancelled The Carrie Diaries. She is wasting a time slot.
ReplyDeleteHow can Laurel join the prosecution’s team on Moira's case? I thought she had a good relationship with Moira and how can she do that to Oliver and Thea?
ReplyDeleteKatherine is moving in with Caroline? I just can't really picture them spending time together.
ReplyDeleteI really hope writers know what they're doing with Laurel O.o
ReplyDeleteMe too.
ReplyDeleteEducation is never useless.
ReplyDeleteBATB sounds exciting. Can't wait to see how Vincent reacts to someone threatening Cat.
ReplyDeleteHart of Dixie - "Go Girl Tween Adventure Camp?" That title is going to give me nightmares.
ReplyDeleteThe Originals - It's good to read that Klaus is still dutifully protecting Hayley.
Supernatural - WTF? Seriously?
Arrow - Are the producers actively trying to get viewers to hate Laurel? I swear, by the time we get to mid-season I may be one of the only people left who is okay with her.
The Tomorrow People - To me, Astrid seems like a potentially great character stuck in a bad storyline.
The Vampire Diaries - I can't wait for the Katherine / Caroline stuff. That'll be really good.
Supernatural - should have had Sam talk to the dog since he loves dogs. Going to be a strange episode.
ReplyDeleteBATB- enjoying the new season,such a big change from last year.
ReplyDeletefrom the spoilery set photos something interesting is going to be happening with Sam/Eziekiel in that episode other than that it sounds really stupid
ReplyDeleteSPN-the side affect is that Dean can talk to all animals apparently he has a fight with a pigeon or something
ReplyDeleteI won't hate Laurel if she's the one that makes the DA offer the deal to Moira, but yeah, they are walking on a thin line here with Laurel. It's not just that Laurel is close to Oliver, Laurel was also close to Moira and in the comics that followed the finale events, she cried to Oliver about Moira and what would happen to Moira. That was already after Tommy's death, and now I'm expected to believe she pulled a 180 on both Moira and Oliver with no reason and is still sane?
ReplyDeleteThus, I have to believe that either Laurel's agenda is to help Moira from the inside or Laurel is heading to a nervous breakdown.
In both cases, this might not end well.
BATB just keeps getting better and better!! 2 episodes in and it's already more thrilling than season 1!
ReplyDeleteCome on folks, tune into BATB you won't be disappointed they've totattly revamped the show it's something, for everyone give it a chance, you'd be pleasantly surprised!!!
ReplyDelete"Thus, I have to believe that either Laurel's agenda is to help Moira
ReplyDeletefrom the inside or Laurel is heading to a nervous breakdown."
I would like to think you're right but Arrow doesn't have a history of writing Laurel to be that clever, so I'm skeptical.
After everything Laurel has been through and all the loss she's endured, you'd think Arrow would take advantage of that to create a character viewers would want to support and to see succeed. Unfortunately, Arrow seems intent on making Laurel shrill and unsympathetic. I hope that changes soon.
Love BatB
ReplyDeleteHart of Dixie: "Blissfully happy" is this what you think fans are tuning in weekly to see. Zoe blissfully happy with Joel. Because her blissful is my snooze fest.
ReplyDeleteWatching Zoe get into bed for a good night sleep with Joel is like watching an geriatric aged married couple. Boring tv and if you want us to believe she's happy then you are failing miserably. Snoresville. Move the story on! Get back to work and treat patients and help your friends in their romance life, but I'm not interested in Zoe and Wade sharing looks across the room.
That was called season 1. Done. Move on. Adult relationships requires adult actions.
Is it sad that the most exciting part of The Originals summary is "Daniel Gillies also stars"?
