hawaiifiveo116smallThere were a lot of fun moments on last week’s Hawaii Five-0. First off… Jerry as a vampire going to the blood bank to donate blood? Hysterical. The fact that armed thieves then broke in to that same blood bank and steal blood? Ahh, vampires… LOL Danny had to get Grace from an unsupervised party…where she was looking awfully grown up! I loved him practicing what he was going to say to her. And I swooned when he walked through the hospital with Charlie – who looked adorable in a cowboy costume – giving out candy instead of getting it. The case started with an awesome chase through the woods. I wouldn’t have guessed it was pretend, not real. It was fun…until they tripped over the gross body. That led to the discovery of multiple bodies, and what that led to turned out out to be horrifying. A man was killing young women and taking specific body parts to create his own perfect woman. It was a modern-day Frankenstein. Chilling.

On tonight’s episode, “Na Kama Hele (Day Trippers),” McGarrett’s first date with Lynn (Sarah Carter) on a deserted island turns deadly when a mob boss hiding there hunts them down in order to keep his location a secret. Also, Chin, Kono, and Grover must race against the game clock to locate the father of a high school football star who will be murdered by a local gambler if his son doesn’t throw the big game.

See if the team can rescue the father and how McGarrett’s date ends up tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing The Amazing Race, Last Man Standing, MasterChef: Junior, Undateable, Truth Be Told, Grimm, Blue Bloods, & BBQ Blitz.

legends112smallTonight, Legends returns to TNT for the start of its second season, and there have been a lot of changes to the show. The only returning regular cast member from the first season is star Sean Bean (that’s a first – usually he’s the only one to die!). Martin is on the run, but he has changed his identity so many times that even he is unsure of his true identity. Is he FBI Agent Martin Odum, the man who killed the FBI director? Or is his true identity that of Iraq vet John Cameron? Or maybe he’s really a Russian gangster named Dmitry Petrovich? While Martin is on a mission to figure out who he really is – and to keep away from the various people hunting down his many personas for different reasons – he’s got some help from his former FBI boss Tony Rice (guest star Morris Chestnut), who is enlisting a new agent (Kelly Overton) to help is old friend John Cameron.

I’m interested to see how the show reinvents itself in this second season, how long Morris Chestnut sticks around (after all, he does have his own show, Rosewood), and if we’ll learn whatever happened to Martin’s old support team. Will we learn about even more of Martin’s past legends, and will he ever figure out his true identity?

On tonight’s premiere, “The Legend of Dmitry Petrovich,” Martin Odum is hiding out in present-day London, searching for clues about his identity with help from a CIA agent (Kelly Overton). Elsewhere, an investigation is launched into a Russian gangster.

Meet the new players tonight on TNT at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Supergirl, Blindspot, Gotham, Minority Report, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Jane the Virgin, Fargo, Major Crimes, Awkward., and Faking It.

chicagopd1028smallI am loving each and every episode of Chicago PD this season. Last week, Voight and the squad went after the man who’d tried to blow him and his family up and who was going after everyone who’d been on Voight’s team when he illegally got him sent to prison years before. That isn’t to say the guy was innocent, just that Voight lied about something and that’s what ultimately put the guy away. The guy was good… He manipulated things to pit Voight against Olinsky and make Voight doubt Al’s claim that he wasn’t the one who stole the guy’s money. In the end, the theft was an inside job, that man turned on his boss, and our team captured both men. Meanwhile, Al sent off the paternity test, but his wife (ex? I’m never clear about that. LOL) basically gave him an ultimatum.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens with Al and his daughter (or is she?) and his family. And now that Voight’s basically given Jay his permission, I can’t wait to see things get hotter between him and Erin. And finally, Voight’s problem about lying during the case years ago hasn’t gone away, so will this be the end of Voight? Surely not. Wouldn’t be the same show without him. And you gotta admit he’s really cleaned up his act since the beginning of the show. He still skirts the line, but I don’t consider him a true dirty cop anymore, so that’ll be fun to see how that plays out. Tonight is a 2-hour episode (2 episodes, but most places, including my DVR, show it as a single 2-hour block), and I can’t wait.

On tonight’s episode, “Climbing Into Bed/You Never Know Who’s Who,” after a botched undercover job, Ruzek is under scrutiny by the new Street Deputy Crowley (guest star Barbara Eve Harris), who will determine his future with the unit. A suspicious person call turns into a murder investigation when Burgess and her temporary partner Price (guest star Travis A. Knight) discover the body of a dead man in an SUV. After Mouse identifies the victim as the owner of a security company, the unit soon realizes there might be more to his story. Halstead and Lindsay take a step forward in their relationship.

Find out what happens with Ruzek and between Jay and Erin tonight on NBC at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing World Series, Hellevator, The Mysteries of Laura, The Goldbergs, Criminal Minds, black-ish, Code Black, & Mystery Diners.

scorpion1026smallLast week on Scorpion, Sylvester darn near made me cry. It was the case of his life – infiltrating the “Super Fun Guy” movie and even having to dress in costume to do it – but because Megan (Walter’s sister and the woman Sly is in love with) was getting ready to have a procedure done, and a dangerous one at that, Sylvester opted to stay home. Megan asked him not to tell Walter, so he didn’t. He obviously wanted to be with the team, but Megan was more important, especially since he was able to help them from there at home. The team had to stop some bad guys from selling a nuclear missile to even more bad guys. There were a lot of fun moments: Happy getting stuck in the silo, Toby going in after her and freeing her…by making her lose her pants, Walter setting off the weapon into the mine tunnel way underground… All of it was just a lot of fun, even if some of it is incredibly far-fetched.

That’s what I love about this show. It forces me to let go of real-life and just enjoy. Tonight’s a super-sized 90-minute episode following the premiere of Supergirl, so it should be a lot of fun. I can’t wait to see what kind of hijinks the team will be up to this week.

On tonight’s episode, “Tech, Drugs, and Rock ‘n Roll,” Walter’s attempt to “normalize” goes horribly wrong when a nefarious virus is uploaded to his computer, turning Team Scorpion’s new “smart” building project into a burning death trap with people locked inside. Andy Buckley, Doug Savant, & more guest star.

See what goes wrong tonight on CBS at 9:31/8:31c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing The Big Bang Theory, Supergirl, Halloween Baking Championship, Beat Bobby Flay, & Blindspot.

theamazingracesmallWhile I’ve been enjoying this season of The Amazing Race, there’s one team I really want gone…and it seems like most of the others do as well. Last week, the teams headed to Zambia, and brothers Tanner & Josh offered the second Express Pass to whichever team U-Turned Justin & Diana. However, the brothers jumped the gun and wasted their Express Pass on an easy Roadblock, only to discover the next leg didn’t even start until the next morning, so all of the teams were caught up before the U-Turn. Justin & Diana got to the U-Turn first but decided not to use it and ended up making it to the pit stop first. When Tanner and Josh reached the pit stop, they discovered the leg was not over and that they were still racing. However, it was time for them to choose who gets the Express Pass – and we were left hanging as to their decision.

Who will Tanner and Josh give the Express Pass to? Will they stick with their partners, the news reporters (who they don’t realize also have a deal with Justin & Diana), will they go with a strong team so that it doesn’t make a big difference, or will they go with some other strategy? And who will be eliminated this week? I really hope somehow tonight the incredibly obnoxious and annoying Justin goes from first to last!

On tonight’s episode, “King of the Jungle (Zambia, Africa),” the race continues in Zambia, Africa, where racers plunge more than 250 feet over the Zambezi River, feed a trio of crocodiles, and walk with lions through a jungle.

To see which team goes home, tune in to CBS at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Undateable, Truth Be Told, Z Nation, and The Knick.
