Last week on Better Call Saul, we got the genesis of one of Breaking Bad’s key relationships – Mike met Gus Fring! Gus didn’t want Mike to kill Hector Salamanca but said he was free to mess with him all he wanted. So Mike hatched a clever plan involving sneakers and a rifle to make sure there was drug residue on the outside of Salamanca’s delivery truck when it tried to cross the border. Meanwhile, the police showed up at Chuck’s to arrest Jimmy, and one of his former public defender coworkers gave Jimmy a hard time when he saw him in the holding cell. Jimmy made bail and, despite Kim’s protests, decided he wanted to defend himself.

I like how the series is quickly moving toward Breaking Bad, setting up the pieces and the relationships that were in place when that show began. Can Jimmy get himself cleared of the charges levied by Chuck? If not, is this what is going to ultimately lead him to become Saul Goodman? What is Salamanca going to do in response to Mike’s actions? And how close are we to learning how he became the wheelchair-bound, mute, bell-ringing guy we saw at the start of Breaking Bad?

On tonight’s episode, “Sabrosito,” Jimmy calls in a favor from Mike. Meanwhile, new complications disrupt the Salamancas’s business; and Chuck and Jimmy struggle to compromise.

Find out what favor Jimmy calls in tonight on AMC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Quantico, Man With a Plan, Superior Donuts, The Great Indoors, Gotham, Supergirl, Jane the Virgin, Young & Hungry, Baby Daddy, and Angie Tribeca.

Tonight, after five seasons, A&E’s Bates Motel will shutter its doors. Last week Norman was being held for interrogation while the police searched the motel and grounds for evidence of the murder of Sam Loomis, to which Norman had confessed. Their search turned up Chick’s dead body in the basement (the one murder Norman actually isn’t responsible for) and Audrey Ellis’s suitcase buried in the front yard. Meanwhile, Dylan revealed to Emma that the police had found her mother’s dead body in the lake, so they headed to White Pine Bay to take care of things. The morning after Norman’s hearing, Emma went to see Norman at his cell but instantly recognized that Norma was currently running the show inside Norman’s body. Shortly after she left, Norman had another visitor, Romero, who forced his way to the cell at gunpoint and then proceeded to choke Norman. But he suddenly released him, demanding to see Norma’s body.

I was a bit weary going into this final season. With Norma dead, how were they going to keep the story going and keep things interesting? Boy was I proven wrong. This final season has probably been the best, most dramatic and exciting season of the series. I can’t wait to see how this all ends tonight. Will Romero be Norman’s next victim? How will he escape all these pending murder charges, and will Dylan and Emma also fall victim to this…psycho?

On tonight’s series finale, “The Cord,” Norman Bates comes home.

See how the series ends tonight on A&E at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Quantico, Gotham, APB, Supergirl, Jane the Virgin, Better Call Saul, Young & Hungry, Baby Daddy, and Angie Tribeca.

I’m getting nervous that Rosewood may not get renewed for another season, so I hope over the last few episodes of this one, we get closure on a lot of the story lines. One thing I’d like to see is Rosie and Villa finally realizing their feelings for each other before it’s too late. I’d also like to know what is going on with Villa’s brother, because his story about just watching people seemed a little fishy if you ask me.

Last week Villa, Rosie, and TMI went back to TMI’s hometown to solve the murder of her best friend and ex-boyfriend (before she was a lesbian of course). The case was solved, and it was nice to finally see some back story about her life before coming to work for Rosie. Also during this episode, we were waiting to find out if Slade was going to live after he suffered complications during the surgery to donate his kidney to Rosie. He lived!

On tonight’s episode, “Amparo & The American Dream,” Rosewood and Villa are pulled into the world of human trafficking to investigate the death of a school teacher, and a surprising insight into Slade’s past draws Rosie and Villa closer than ever before.

Find out what Slade has been hiding tonight on FOX at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching The Toy Box and Diners, Drive-ins & Dives .

Last week, Superstore took a week off, but tonight it returns for the first of the final three weeks of the season. In the last episode, Glenn brought all of his past and present foster kids to the store to take a family photo for wife Jerusha. Cheyenne offered to watch toddler Bobbie Sue but almost immediately lost sight of her. So Garrett and Dina helped build a baby trap out of a plastic container and a toilet plunger, with some black licorice for bait, and shockingly, it worked! Meanwhile, Mateo tricked some of the kids into doing his work for him, while he used them as a sounding board to deal with his breakup blues. And when Jonah made a connection with 25-year-old Kristen, Glenn asked Amy to take the fall as he tried to break them up.

This show has such a great ensemble of characters. No matter how they are paired up each week, there’s always so much chemistry and so many laughs. That said, I’m a little nervous about tonight’s episode, as it marks the return of Cheyenne’s fiancé, Bo, who was easily my least favorite part of the first season. I’m hoping that somehow having a new baby has mellowed him out a bit. I’m also interested to see how the whole Jonah and Amy “will they or won’t they” plays out in these final three episodes of the season… Will they build to some kind of cliffhanger in the season finale?

On tonight’s episode, “Spring Cleaning,” a “spring cleaning” day is initiated by Glenn, and Amy and Garrett snoop into abandoned photos during the cleanup. Also, Jonah tries to gain Glenn’s approval, and Cheyenne’s fiancé begins working at the store to make fast cash for their wedding.

See what Amy and Garrett find in the pictures tonight on NBC at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/recording The Catch, The Amazing Race, Powerless, The Blacklist, MasterChef: Junior, and Kicking & Screaming.

It’s been way too long (January 1!) since we last saw Brooklyn Nine-Nine, especially since they ended it on such a huge cliffhanger! Gina was hit by a bus! I’d actually forgotten that until I started watching the screener for this new episode. Then it hit me. (Doh. 😉 ) That was the episode that dealt with the prison break, where Amy and Jake were competing to see who could capture the most – the loser would then move into the winner’s apartment. Even though Jake won, he was very sweet (and honest! LOL) when he conceded that Amy’s place was better and he wanted to move in with her. It was a great moment for them and a fun episode overall…until Gina walked out and was hit by a bus!

Thankfully, the show is back tonight. I really missed it, and I was very happy with the new episode. We get an answer right off as to Gina’s fate (It’s a comedy. She’s a major character. Do you really think she’s going to die?!), and the episode as a whole is just as funny as always, especially because we see not only one character’s ex, but TWO!

On tonight’s episode, “The Audit,” with the crime rate lowered, Brooklyn will be shutting down one of its precincts – permanently. The Nine-Nine is confident they will be evaluated fairly, until the official auditor turns out to be Amy’s ex-boyfriend, Teddy (guest star Kyle Bornheimer). The whole squad then must band together to try to save the precinct. Jama Williamson also guest stars.

To see what Teddy decides about the Nine-Nine, tune in to FOX at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Chopped Junior, American Housewife, Prison Break, Trial & Error, Imaginary Mary, & Chopped.
