scorpion323smallMy pick tonight is the new episode of Scorpion, which is back after having last week off. On the last new episode, the world was on the verge of WWIII if three Eastern European countries couldn’t come to a peace treaty. The leaders of each of the countries met in the US, and Scorpion was there to help hide the fact that those leaders weren’t still at home in their own countries. In the end, when one of the leaders was poisoned, Scorpion was able to not only figure out who did it and which snake’s venom they used, but after Walter forced a snakebite on himself, they were able to get the correct snake and fix an anti-venom for it. Both Walter and the foreign leader were saved, and the three leaders signed a peace treaty with no one being the wiser about how close it had come to war.

Highlights of the episode include Walter, Paige, and Happy stealing a taco truck, Happy kissing Toby, learning Cabe has a secret about the software Walter invented when he was a kid—he had more to do with the way it was used than Walter thinks, maybe?—and Walter nearly spilling to Paige as he was nearly delusional from the snake’s venom about the Valentine’s date he’d planned, as well as him arranging it so Paige wouldn’t miss her final for her college class. And how cute was it when he said he was proud of her?

On tonight’s episode, “Young Hearts Spark Fire,” while on a mission to save lost hikers, Team Scorpion’s helicopter crashes, igniting a massive wildfire that quickly closes in on them. Also, Sylvester must help their injured pilot who is unable to make it to safer ground.

See how the team makes it out of the flames tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing 2 Broke Girls, Mike & Molly, Food Fortunes, NCIS: LA, & Castle.

ncisla39smallIt’s been a couple of weeks since the last NCIS: LA, and it was kind of a sad one. Thapa — the Nepali soldier they’d worked with before who’d given Deeks advice that led to him back away from Kensi slightly — returned, intent on grabbing a woman contracted by the CIA, but when someone shot at them as they were facing off — nearly killing Sam — Thapa said it wasn’t his man, so suddenly they had to work together to figure out who wanted the woman dead…and if not her, then find who it was they’d been aiming for. The team figured out the woman the CIA was bringing into the US was spying for her country, rather than coming to the US for safety and to give them all the info they needed on the nukes her country had. There was a great ninja fight at the hospital, and in the end, Thapa was killed as he saved Sam. It turned out the gunman from the beginning of the episode had been aiming for him. I felt horrible for Deeks especially, because he honestly considered the man a friend (or as close to a friend as their positions would allow). On a good note, Thapa had given Deeks advice again about Kensi, and because of that, Kensi & Deeks ended the episode a little bit calmer than they’d started. (Although they started together in bed, and that’s never a bad thing! LOL) But things were touch-and-go with Sam for a while. Thankfully he was going to be okay.

On tonight’s episode, “Savoir Faire,” while the team investigates the death of one of three Afghanistan soldiers who are training in the U.S., they discover two other soldiers are missing and must find them before they’re forced to reveal classified military operations to their captors. Also, Sam is back to work but his team worries it may be too soon, and Callen realizes he has very little in common with his partner.

See more funny banter between Sam and Callen tonight on CBS at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing 2 Broke Girls, Mike & Molly, Scorpion, & Food Fortunes.

scorpion223smallI’m still really loving Scorpion—the characters and story lines are so much fun. Last time, Paige, Sylvester, Walter, & Cabe went undercover on a cruise ship—Paige & Sylvester as a couple and Walter & Cabe as their…well, baggage handler and trainer, basically—to find some rockets that were being transported and put some tracking on them. Unfortunately, things went sideways, and just when it looked dire, Sylvester stepped up and faced one of his major fears…and nearly paid for it with his life. In the end, of course, the good guys won. And it was Valentine’s Day, so Sylvester made a homemade valentine for Megan, while Walter hacked into one of the most popular, expensive restaurants to secure a reservation for him & Paige under the guise of a “work meeting.” Unfortunately, he met up with his ex on the cruise ship, and when she realized the feelings he had for Paige, she told him to make sure he was ready for a relationship before starting one with someone else, so he cancelled the dinner he had planned. It was pretty sad. On the other end of the spectrum, Happy and Toby have finally crossed some line in their relationship, and they held hands for a moment, when they took Ralph to give a special gift to the girl he has a crush on.

I’m glad they aren’t rushing the relationship between Paige & Walter, and that’s helped by the fact that Drew, Ralph’s father, is gone. Hopefully things will continue to progress and not stall!

On tonight’s episode, “Going South,” Team Scorpion heads to Mexico when a tech billionaire hires them to rescue his kidnapped daughter. Also, feelings are hurt after Walter gives an interview and fails to acknowledge the other members of the team. Camille Guaty guest stars.

Find out if the team can rescue the daughter tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing 2 Broke Girls, Kids Baking Championship, Mike & Molly, Ellen’s Design Challenge, NCIS: LA, & Castle.

Megan’s Choice

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.

janethevirgin119smallTonight, the delightful—and Golden Globe-winning—CW comedy Jane the Virgin returns from its hiatus. When we last left off, we discovered that Petra was not who she said she was and that she had assumed identity of a dead woman. Also, Michael discovered a secret passage in the hotel room, which led to an underground tunnel; Rogelio’s rival Esteban took home the Best Actor prize at the Paloma Awards; and Xo’s idol gave her some encouragement to pursue her dreams of becoming a pop star (however, she doesn’t know it was Rogelio who set this conversation up). But the biggest shocker was when supposedly wheelchair-bound Magda stood up and pushed Alba down the stairway.

Is Alba okay? Will the others discover the truth about Magda, and does Petra even know the truth about her mother’s condition? What is Madga’s ultimate plan—is she the one behind the Sin Rostro case? Will Michael ever solve that case, and what does this secret tunnel have to do with it? Will Xo and Rogelio get back together? This show moves a mile a minute, and each episode brings new, entertaining twists and turns!

On tonight’s episode, “Chapter Ten,” a hurricane hits town, forcing Jane to stay at the Marbella. Meanwhile, Rogelio comforts Xo when he learns about Alba’s condition; Rafael gets his old job back and must make a tough call regarding staff layoffs; and Michael tries to assist Alba quietly.

Find out what decision Raael makes and what the outcome in when Rogelio confronts Xo tonight on The CW at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Castle, Gotham, Sleepy Hollow, Chasing Life, Eye Candy, and The Venture Bros.
