Have you ever been at a loss as to what to watch? Too many shows to pick from? We’re here to give you our opinions on what we feel is worth watching. Check it out and then let us know in the comments below what you’re choosing for tonight!

Jenny’s Choice

Last week’s Rosewood had some character growth, some shockers, and some bad news. The case was kind of fun. I love magic, so any time a story line is set in the world of magicians, I tend to enjoy it. Turned out the killer was a fellow magician who poisoned the victim with homemade cyanide (made from apricot pits!). The killer was “always a bridesmaid, never the bride,” or rather he was always the opening act, never the star. On the character front, there was good news and bad news. Good news? Hornstock chose not to accept a job he’d applied for as the captain in Palm Beach, which means he’s sticking around. How that’ll continue to play against current captain, Ryan Slade, I have no idea. But I kinda love Hornstock and Villa’s mom. That’s a fun situation, having your coworker/former boss in a relationship with your mom! LOL For the so-so news (depending on your “shipper” stance…), Rosie spent the episode vetting Adrian as a match for Villa. In the end, Rosie has so far given Adrian a thumbs-up, but for some reason, Villa is still waffling a bit. Adrian told her he wasn’t going anywhere, which makes me sad, but whatever… Now for the bad news… The doctor told Rosie that the bender he went on after the lying, thieving witch left did more damage to his body than he thought. He was told to gather his family because he would need them.

Eek! So what did Rosewood do to his body/heart?? Will it serve to bring him and Villa closer or will he push that much harder to make Villa happy with Adrian?

On tonight’s episode, “Puffer Fish & Personal History,” when a victim, presumed dead, wakes up on Rosie’s autopsy table, the team is thrown into a world in which people go to great lengths to keep their secrets hidden. Both Rosie and Villa are forced to re-examine the meaning of family, and Rosie’s search for a Magic City Lab investor leads him to a surprising candidate.

Find out who could potentially invest in Magic City Lab tonight on FOX at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Grimm & Last Man Standing.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/26/17

Posted on January 26, 2017 by

Have you ever been at a loss as to what to watch? Too many shows to pick from? We’re here to give you our opinions on what we feel is worth watching. Check it out and then let us know in the comments below what you’re choosing for tonight!

Kyle’s Choice

Tonight, the new series Riverdale premieres on The CW. This live-action series is based on the characters from Archie Comics, but it looks like this version will be a much darker take on the material – kind of a Dawson’s Creek meets Twin Peaks. As the series opens, summer is coming to a close when the town of Riverdale experiences the tragic death of high school golden boy Jason Blossom. As the investigation into the mysterious death is underway, the new school year begins for aspiring musician Archie Andrews (KJ Apa, Shortland Street); budding writer Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse, The Suite Life on Deck); soon-to-be-famous singer Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray); girl-next-door Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart, Surviving Jack), who has a crush on Archie; new student from New York Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes); and Riverdale’s Queen Bee Cheryl Blossom (Madelaine Petsch), who is the twin sister of the deceased. Some of the other main/recurring characters include Riverdale’s young music teacher, Ms. Grundy (Sarah Habel, Rush); Archie’s father Fred (Luke Perry, Beverly Hills, 90210); Veronica’s mother Hermione (Marisol Nichols, Teen Wolf, 24); and Betty’s overbearing mother Alice (Mädchen Amick, Witches of East End).

What mysteries, dangers, and secrets lurk in the shadows of this seemingly quiet, sleepy little town? I’m really looking forward to finding out! I read a bunch of the Archie comics growing up, and this looks like an interesting, more modern approach to the material. At the same time, based on the trailers, it kind of reminds me of the type of shows I enjoyed on The WB in the 90s.

On tonight’s premiere, “Chapter One: The River’s Edge,” Riverdale reels from the tragic death of Jason Blossom, a high school student; new student Veronica Lodge arrives in town; Cheryl Blossom stirs up trouble among the others while keeping a few secrets of her own.

Meet the gang from Riverdale tonight on The CW at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Grey’s Anatomy, My Kitchen Rules, Top Chef, and Colony.

Recap/Review – This Is Us – 1/24/17

Posted on January 25, 2017 by

This week’s episode of This Is Us (titled: “Three Sentences”) revealed a particularly life-changing birthday party for the Pearson gang while revelations were made in the present timeline for the Big Three.

Recap:

The Pearson’s Birthday
Showing through the lens of home movies, the Big Three have celebrated their birthdays together, complete with a three-layered cake and pin the tail on the donkey. When the kids come to Jack and Rebecca and want separate birthdays one year (they will be turning ten), the parents are less than thrilled but comply with their kids’ wishes. Kate wants a Madonna theme, Kevin wants a Princess Bride theme, while Randall just wants a magician.

While Jack is Bedazzling a pair of gloves for Kate, he mentions to Rebecca that he wants to have another kid. He feels the Big Three are growing up so quickly and they won’t need him anymore. Rebecca understands what he’s saying, but she tells him she’s done having kids.
