Gotham Knights: Season 1 Episode 6: A Chill In Gotham: Review

Wow! Another great episode!!!! This episode was so unsettling, and had a lot of good moments in it. I really hope that Scott doesn't end up with Stephanie, because I want him to end up with Duela, because there are a lot of clues that point to her liking him! 

I think I might know why the Court of Owls is keeping Harvey alive. The Talon always beheads his victims, so why didn't he behead Lincoln? I believe that with Harvey sleeping with Lincoln's wife (While not knowing that he did), the Court of Owls plans on framing Harvey Dent, under the assumption that he wanted Lincoln's wife all to himself! 

Or it has something to do with the emergence of his alter-ego, Two-Face! Should be very interesting! I am loving this show so far!

The Flash: Season 9 Episode 9: It's My Party, And I'll Die If I Want To: Review

I haven't been this emotional for a Flash episode in a very long time! This episode could've easily been the series finale! Stephen Amell has not lost his touch as Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, and it as the perfect sendoff for his character.

It was nice to see Wally West return as well! I really hope that he and Jesse Quick reunite at some point, as I really liked their chemistry together, and it would be nice to see Violett Beane reprise her role as Jesse Quick again!

I got emotional watching Green Arrow battle all the infected Police Officers, it was so awesome watching those fight scenes, as it reminded me of the old episodes of Arrow!

Dr. Bloodwork is such a good villain, and this was a great sendoff for an amazing villain!

Superman & Lois: Season 3 Episode 6: Of Sound Mind: Review

Not quite ready to write long reviews at the moment. Too busy and too tired.

Superman & Lois' 6th episode this season continues to get the plot moving, even if it could move it a tad bit faster.

Superman going to a group therapy for people whose family members have, or have had, cancer kind of felt unnecessary. I get hey want this to feel very authentic for people who have gone through this, but they need to get the ball rolling more, instead of focusing on these kind of story lines. Tyler Hoechlin did give a very heartfelt performance though!

Lois bonding with a cancer patient named Peia made me realize that the theories regarding who she really is was true. I will get to that part later, but I totally called it!

Sophie running away from home was a very emotional story line. I was glad to see Sophie get more screen time, and I am really warming up to Michael Bishop as Jonathan Kent. It was interesting to see Jonathan have some moments with the Cushings, but I hope that Sarah doesn't fall for him, and that she eventually gets back with Jordan.

Jordan continuing to get stronger with his powers was amazing. Alex Garfin continues to be the standout performer in this series, and I am loving his character development this season. I also loved the reveal that Kryptonite doesn't affect Jordan as it does Clark, because Jordan is half human.

Lana finding out that Kyle and Chrissy are dating was very awkward. I lost it when Chrissy thought that Kyle was going to break up with her because of it. I really like Kyle and Chrissy together, and I hope that they stay together.

The reveal that Onomatopoeia is actually Peia and Bruno's wife was something the fans were spot on about. When they brought Peia back in this episode, I knew right off the bat that it was her. I am really looking to see how this will eventually tie into the arrival of Lex Luthor. It should be very fun, and suspenseful.

I am still under the impression that Superman will die at the end of this season, and that it will be by the hand of Bizarro, who is morphed into Doomsday! I really hope that this happens, because it would be the ultimate misdirect!

The Mandalorian: Season 3 Episode 8: The Return: Review

While it was disappointing there wasn't a huge surprise at the end, like the first 2 season finales of Mandalorian, the season 3 finale of The Mandalorian features some stellar action scenes, setting up the fourth season in a great way, revealing what Moff Gideon was trying to clone, outstanding cinematography, amazing visual effects, and stellar performances from Katee Sackhoff and Giancarlo Esposito.

Gotham Knights: Season 1 Episode 5: More Money, More Problems: Review

Okay! What is going on with Harvey Dent? Is he schizophrenic, or is the Court of Owls doing something with his mind?! I have no doubt that he will become Two-Face by the end of the season, but what is going on?

The story line involving the Gotham Knights was great! Duela threatening the mob by saying she will set their leader's son on fire was hilarious, and a great callback to the Dark Knight! Duela's expressions when they were tossing the money out onto the street was hilarious as well! 

I was also happy to get more characterization on Carrie as well. She has a very interesting backstory, and I really need to know why she stole the pages from Bruce's diary! What is she hiding from Turner.

I am also really under the impression that they are teasing a romance between Scott and Duela. If they do, I would laugh so loud. Scott and Duela would be a hilarious couple, and I would love to see how Stephanie, and Carrie react to it.

Small problem was the Court of Owl's lack of screen time, I understand why they do not show them a whole lot, but I really need them to bring them back soon!

Gotham Knights: Season 1 Episode 4: Of Butchers and Betrayals: Review

Wow! This show continues to impress me more and more! Love the mystery surrounding what is happening with Harvey Dent, love the chemistry with the group of heroes, love The Court of Owls (They are such intriguing villains), and the plot twists that keep coming! Olivia Rose Keegan continues to steal the show as Duela!

The Flash: Season 9 Episode 8: Partners in Time: Review

While it has an interesting premise, and the chemistry between Grant Gustin and Candice Patton is amazing, the episode is dull, and doesn't set up the next story line at all! The scenes with Chester and Allegra are boring as well.

The Flash: Season 9 Episode 7: Wildest Dreams: Review

While the moments between Mark and Khione are heartfelt and funny, Flash's 7th episode lacks the title character, has an uninteresting story line with a character from Supergirl, and adds nothing new to the series. Wish it get on with the next story line already!

Superman & Lois: Season 3 Episode 5: Head On: Review

 As soon as I am caught up with Gotham Knights, and The Flash, I will get back to writing longer reviews for this show!

Superman & Lois' 5th episode this season delivers on the heartfelt moments between Lois and Clark, and Jonathan and Candace, and setting up a major conflict between Superman and Bruno Manheim.

I am very interested to see Jonathan become a firefighter! I also really hope that him and Candace reunite, as she has really grown on me.

Natalie going to the dance with Matteo is more than just a romantic subplot for Natalie. Matteo has to be related to Bruno, he can't just be a nobody.

I really like Kyle and Chrissy, and I hope that they stay together.

The dance aspect of the episode was good, I just really wish that Jordan and Sarah were still together. I am still holding onto hope that they will reconcile towards the end of the season.

Bruno getting his hands on Bizarro is something I didn't see coming. After this, I am really counting on Bizarro becoming Doomsday. They are probably going to build up the season as if Lois is going to die, but then kill Superman. While it would be similar to Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, I would still be okay with it. What I wouldn't be okay with, is if they act like that is the greatest thing ever, because of their hatred for Zack Snyder.

The Mandalorian: Season 2 Episode 7: The Spies: Review

Wow! Mandalorian's penultimate episode sets up an exciting finale!!!! Loved the return of Moff Gideon, and teasing Grand Admiral Thrawn's return! The episode makes me wonder who the spies are that are helping Moff Gideon! Paz Vizsla's death was very shocking! Loved the return of the Praetorian Guards! WOW! Loved this episode so much!

The Mandalorian: Season 2 Episode 6: Guns For Hire: Review

 While it feels like a filler episode, the Mandalorian's 7th episode delivers on the humor, surprising cameos from Jack Black and Christopher Lloyd, fun dynamic between Bo Katan and Din Djarin, and some great scenes between the Mandalorians that will shape the series going forward.

Superman and Lois: Season 3 Episode 4: Too Close to Home: Review

Got way too much going on this week and next week! I will only write short reviews until then!

Superman and Lois' third episode this season is easily the best of the season!!!! Loved the fact that Jordan got his own suit (And I'm looking forward to seeing it in action soon!). The interaction between Clark and Emmitt (Candace's dad) was easily the best scene of the season, always love it when Clark gets tough with someone when he is not Superman! I was really glad that Sarah and Lana reconciled, and Erik Valdez absolutely knocked it out of the park in this episode! Bruno Manheim is a great threat, and this episode just made me hate him even more! So glad that this episode was amazing!!!!!
