hawaiifiveo213smallLast week’s Hawaii Five-0 was great, especially for Kono fans. Five-0 was hunting down at criminal who’d never been seen. When Kono was left at the hospital guarding the prisoner/informant/witness, we found out that the female shooting victim was actually the bad guy. She began chasing Kono and the prisoner/informant/witness (who’d been shot in the stomach) around the hospital. Kono put him in the laundry room, where he hid in a big laundry tub, as she tried to lead the woman away from him. There was a huge fight when the woman caught up with her, and Kono finally put her down by grabbing the paddles and shocked her—which sent her flying away from the gurney and into the wall. It was awesome. At the beginning of the episode, Kono had admitted to Adam that his ties to his family’s business bothered her, even though he was trying to make it all legitimate. In the end, after the fight with the bad guy/girl, she went to him, interrupting his meeting, and told him she loved him and wanted to be his wife. Cue the feels! It was great. I love her and Adam, and it’s nice to see a stable relationship on that show, where no one dies or leaves!

On tonight’s episode, “E ‘Imi pono (Searching for the Truth),” when a journalist is killed, Five-0 must use his past reporting to hunt down a presumed dead Congolese warlord who is alive and well living on Oahu. Also, as Valentine’s Day approaches, Danny overreacts when Grace’s texts to a boy start accidently coming up on his cell phone. Barkhad Adbi guest stars as the Congolese warlord.

Watch Danny overreact to his little girl growing up tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing 12 Monkeys, Grimm, King of the Nerds, Love Lust or Run, & Blue Bloods.

janethevirgin29smallLast week on Jane the Virgin, Jane got a job writing for The Passions of Santos but quickly discovered her first assignment was to write her father’s death scene. Rogelio’s assistant had manipulated events in order to make Rogelio look bad so he could become the new star of the show. Meanwhile, Petra faked her own murder in order to trick her mother into revealing that she could walk. And Rose was revealed (to us) as Sin Rostro as she murdered Emilio, burying him alive in fresh cement.

Will Michael and the others also discover Rose’s secret? What will Rafael do when he discovers his father is dead? Has Petra buried the hatchet with Milos now that she knows her mother was actually the target of his acid? What will Rogelio do now—Santos must have an evil twin or identical cousin they could write into the show, right?! Or is he headed to Hollywood to try to make it on the big screen? I hope Rogelio sticks around because he is my favorite character!

On tonight’s episode, “Chapter Thirteen,” Jane learns the baby’s sex, but a medical issue arises and may interfere with Jane’s graduation. Meanwhile, Alba refuses to tell Xo about something she finds too embarrassing to discuss; and Michael believes he’s uncovered Sin Rostro’s real identity.

To see if a medical issue does indeed interfere with Jane’s graduation, tune in to The CW at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Castle, Gotham, Sleepy Hollow, Jane the Virgin, Chasing Life, and Better Call Saul.

bettercallsaul28smallTonight is the first half of the 2-night premiere of the new AMC series Better Call Saul. The show is a prequel to Breaking Bad, set 6 years prior, and follows the exploits of courtroom lawyer Jimmy McGill as he (d)evolves into the sleazy Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk). Working alongside Jimmy is “fixer” Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks), another character Breaking Bad viewers will be familiar with. The series also stars Michael McKean (Family Tree), Rhea Seehorn (Franklin & Bash, Whitney), Patrick Fabian (Working Class), and Michael Mando (Orphan Black).

When I first heard about this series, and it was rumored to be a sitcom, I was really scared, However, once it was announced that it was going to be a drama, I have been really looking forward to revisiting the world of Saul Goodman. I’m also excited that Mike will be on the sho. He was one of my favorite Breaking Bad characters, and it will be fun to see how he and Saul butt heads — no-nonsense meets all-nonsense! The series has already been picked up for a second season, so tonight is just the first of many cases we’ll Saul Goodman take on.

On tonight’s 75-minute episode, “Uno,” Jimmy McGill is working his magic in the courtroom when unexpected inspiration leads him to an unconventional pursuit of potential clients.

See what inspires Jimmy tonight on AMC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, The Simpsons, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Family Guy, Bob’s Burgers, Worst Cooks in America, The Walking Dead, Taking Dead, Togetherness, Looking, Shameless, Episodes, and Mike Tyson Mysteries.

Tonight, NBC kicks off the new spy thriller, Allegiance. Rookie CIA analyst Alex O’Connor (Gavin Stenhouse) is sent from DC to New York City to assess an SBR (formerly KGB) asset who wants to defect to the US. However, Alex doesn’t know that his parents, Katya (Hope Davis, The Newsroom) and Mark (Scott Cohen, Necessary Roughness), and sister Natalie (Margarita Levieva, Revenge) are part of a Russian sleeper cell. The O’Connors’ handler Victor (Morgan Spector, Person of Interest, Boardwalk Empire) demands that they recruit their son as a spy before his investigation uncovers the SBR’s darkest secrets. However, Katya doesn’t want to lose any more of her children to the Russians. The series also stars Kenneth Choi (Sons of Anarchy, Ironside) as Alex’s mentor.

One can’t help but compare this show to The Americans. While they do share some similarities, they are still very different shows, and this one takes place in the present. I really enjoyed tonight’s premiere and am looking forward to seeing how this story unfolds. Can the O’Connors prevent the rest of their children from being drafted into the SBR? Will Alex discover the truth about his family? And if so, would he choose family or country?

Meet the new spy family tonight on NBC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording The Big Bang Theory, Elementary, Grey’s Anatomy, How to Get Away With Murder, The Blacklist, Backstrom, Archer, Wizard Wars, and Fortitude.

sleepyhollow22smallAfter last week, I think it’s safe to say that Sleepy Hollow is finally getting its groove back. Abby and Ichabod have been on a weird path for a bit, but last week they finally got their issues off their chests and started working together like they used to. It all started with karaoke, followed by working together to track down the creepy vampire-like creature that was forcing Holly to work with her again. Turns out the creature was his aunt who raised him, but she’d undergone a ceremony to turn her into this immortal beast. She lured him in with a story about wanting to steal an artifact to help her become human again, when in reality she just wanted to get it to turn Holly into an immortal creature too. Thankfully, Abby and Ichabod managed to save the day with the help of Jenny and their impeccable team work. It was nice not to see a lot of Katrina this week, although when we did see her it was watching her do a spell on Frank. That spell was to prove he was indeed himself, but when he hugged his wife, the reflection in the window didn’t show him—weird. I’m very excited to see where this season is going to go next.

On tonight’s episode, “Spellcaster,” a warlock who triggered the Salem witch trials escapes purgatory; Henry tries to find his identity.

To see the havoc the warlock causes, tune in to FOX at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching Gotham, Eye Candy, 2 Broke Girls, NCIS: LA, Jane the Virgin, The Originals, Mike & Molly, and Ellen’s Design Challenge.
