The Witcher: Out of the Fire, Into the Frying Pan (2023)
Page by page from the book
This episode, while poorly timed, was integral for Ciri's development. The Time of Contempt was a turning point for her character. However, I feel like her scenes could've been split up a bit more. In this episode, Ciri is forced to use her teachings completely stranded in the desert. Her days spent in the desert trigger a harsh fall into self reflection and growth. Before this point, Ciri is a young girl who hasn't quite figured out her place and what her blood means for their world. Her time in the desert and with the Rats truly harden her into the woman she becomes later one.
People who watch this show for the witcher himself would probably be disappointed with this episode but he is not the only character in this story.
Side note, the colouring and cinematography in the scene between Ciri and her grandmother is wonderfully done.
The Witcher: The Art of the Illusion (2023)
A fun episode
As someone who enjoyed both the books and the games, I like to keep an open mind about this show. It really is unrealistic to expect massive productions to stay completely true to its source media. It is really just an interpretation after all. That being said, I have liked S3 Volume 1. There is nothing more entertaining than drama and politics at parties which is why I enjoyed this episode so much. While the casting choices have been a subject of contempt for some people, I think the cast has done a great job so far. Even if the writing can be a bit off at times, I will certainly be sticking around for the actors.
Chicago Med: Reunion (2016)
Well written episode
I'm not sure the other reviews understand the point of this episode. The child does not have mitochondrial disease, hence why the symptoms don't match. She is experiencing psychological stress that is manifesting as physical symptoms that are being exasperated by polypharmacy.
Besides that, I really enjoyed this episode. All the storylines were well written and interesting.
Criminal Minds: False Flag (2017)
Different episode
Different type of episode for sure, but I still think it was nicely done. Zelda Williams did a great job because I found her character absolutely insufferable. It highlighted a "movement" that is getting more popular over the years.
Riverdale: Chapter Eighty-Seven: Strange Bedfellows (2021)
phenomenal
This show is so bad that it's good. I literally look forward to this weekly because it brings me so much joy to watch this absolute dumpster fire.
Grey's Anatomy: Leave a Light On (2020)
Evil Spawn
I would've preferred they killed him than just absolutely destroy 16 years of development for nothing. I love this show, but this is an amazing example of horrible writing.
The 100: The Dying of the Light (2020)
Human Nature
I think the audience forgets that there really is no true protagonist in this show. Since the first season, the characters have fought for survival and through that they abandoned almost all their moral reasoning. The final season is no different. Of course, they've made decisions we, as an audience, don't agree with.
This was a strong episode that showed many of the actors haven't lost their gusto. This isn't the first time the characters have faced a life threatening situation and it's definitely not gonna be the last this season. Madi took a page out of her mother's book and sacrificed herself to save her loved ones. Strong acting from Lola this episode and it was a treat to watch her grow since the first time we saw her.
The 100: Anaconda (2020)
Strong episode
I was kinda worried about a flashback episode, but wow I am floored. It filled in all the holes in the story we've been missing since season one. I loved seeing Becca's full backstory.
The 100: From the Ashes (2020)
Wow
The acting, cinematography, and environment painted a good start to the final season. Eliza Taylor truly shined in this episode and I can't wait to see how she performs in the next 15 episodes. I'm excited to see where the anomaly leads and where the three will end up.
Riverdale: Chapter Seventy-One: How to Get Away with Murder (2020)
Ugh
Someone please free Lili Reinhart from this mess. There's no doubt she has the talent, but even she can't save this script. I'm totally aware this show has established its gonna be unrealistic. However, the writing on this episode is just a whole other level of awful. Some parts were okay, but the confrontation between Betty and Donna was so difficult to watch.
I truly believe this show has some incredible actors casted, so I'll keep watching. Ugh, I miss season one.
Sex Education: Episode 6 (2020)
Love it
One of my favourite episodes this season. Loved seeing everyone together at the party and seeing Jean hangout with Adam's mom (cannot remember her name at the moment). Also, drunk Otis is my fave Otis.
You: Have a Good Wellkend, Joe! (2019)
Good season so far
I keep finding myself rooting for Joe because this show is THAT good. I have to catch myself and remind myself that he is a serial killer and a stalker. These actors are extremely talented and have good chemistry together.
You: What Are Friends For? (2019)
Off to a good start
Love is a complex and interesting character. Seeing the relationship dynamic with her and Forty was a treat this episode. She's shaping up to be a better love interest than Beck. Another character I really like is Delilah. Overall, this was a good episode with some forced moments but it came through in the end.
Supergirl: Stranger Beside Me (2019)
On a good track
Can we just appreciate that cute morning breakfast scene between Nia and Brainy? I feel like people rate this show too harshly. It's from the CW, not HBO.
Supergirl: All About Eve (2019)
Good episode
So happy to see Carl Lumbly! I missed his character so much.
Grey's Anatomy: Add It Up (2019)
harmless fun
One of my fave episodes this season. greys doesn't need to be so serious and dramatic all the time. also, educating richard webber about people who prefer they/them pronouns isn't exactly "PC/liberal propaganda." best part? tied between owen talking to the baby in dumb voices and the doctors competing with the child math wiz. overall, i really loved this episode.
The 100: Matryoshka (2019)
10/10
The acting has been so strong this season. It's amazing how far this show has come.
The 100: What You Take with You (2019)
Amazing acting
Give Marie her emmy already! What a strong episode.
Stranger Things: Chapter Five: The Flayed (2019)
What a great season
I always forget how amazing these actors are. I was so impressed by the acting and sequences in this episode. Possibly the best season yet.
Stranger Things: Chapter Two: The Mall Rats (2019)
Strong start
Seeing the kids grow up is really cute and i'm glad they added this to the plot. i really like where this season is going so far.
Grey's Anatomy: Bad Reputation (2018)
Strong episode
I really loved this episode. I was just as surprised as Owen when we saw Leo's mom.
The storyline between Nurse Olivia, Alex, and Jo was my favourite.
Riverdale: Chapter Fifty-Three: Jawbreaker (2019)
Best actors
Just an appreciation post for Lili Reinhart and Madchen Amick's acting and chemistry together.
Riverdale: Chapter Fifty-One: Big Fun (2019)
No
As a Heathers fan, I am so disappointed. I usually love Riverdale but this was horrible.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: Chapter Seventeen: The Missionaries (2019)
Loved it
Yes! such an amazing episode. Kiernan Shipka is such a talented actress.
Sex Education: Episode 3 (2019)
emotional
God this show is so important and i love this episode so much.
