Recap/Review – Crazy Ex-Girlfriend – 12/9/16

This week’s episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (titled: “Who’s the Cool Girl Josh Is Dating?”) showed the lengths Rebecca and Valencia would go to get what they wanted.

Recap:

Josh & Anna
Josh and Anna have been dating for a few weeks, and it seems all is going well. When they go to a hipster coffee joint, we learn that Josh is falling hard for Anna while she’s still debating her feelings for him. She appears to be perfect in every way.

Rebecca & Valencia
Rebecca, Valencia, and Heather are hanging out at their place with all eyes glued to their computer screens. Rebecca and Valencia pretend they aren’t cyber-stalking Josh, but when they see him kissing Anna in an Instagram photo, they both have similar strong reactions. Heather warns the girls that “curiosity killed the cat,” and they completely ignore her warning and decide to take their stalking to the streets after a song called “Research Me Obsessively,” sung by Brittany Snow AKA Anna.

Recap/Review – Crazy Ex-Girlfriend – 12/2/16

This week’s episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (titled: “Who Needs Josh When You Have a Girl Group?”) was about forcing relationships between lovers and friends.

Recap:

crazyexgirlfriendrecap123smallIn this week’s episode, we see a familiar face. Trent, Rebecca’s fake ex-boyfriend, has a plan to infiltrate Josh’s friend group so that he can get closer to Rebecca. And since Josh and his friends can’t get into the bar due to the extravagant cover charge, Trent decides to pay for a table (and everything else for the guys) to make a good impression. And even though Josh, White Josh, and Hector like that everything is free, they decide that Trent is too strange and leave him at the bar, alone. With a little help from a new acquaintance, Trent decides to go straight to Rebecca and profess his love for her.

A side note about Josh… He’s been on three dates with Anna and texts her constantly, much to the annoyance of his friends.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 11/28/16

supergirl1128smallTonight, The CW kicks off its epic four-night “Heroes v Aliens” crossover event, beginning with Supergirl. Last week, Mon-El had been abducted by Lillian Luthor, and when Kara tried to save him, she was confronted by the real Hank, who had been turned into a cyborg by CADMUS. In her efforts to save Mon-El, Kara lost her powers. Lillian utilized this opportunity to collect a sample of Kara’s blood and then took off, leaving Kara and Mon-El in their cells to die. However, Jeremiah Danvers made a surprise re-appearance just in time to rescue them. Meanwhile, Guardian was being blamed for evil happenings in the city, and James had to clear his alter-ego’s name; and J’onn discovered that M’gann was really a White Martian (the Green Martians have a longstanding feud with the White Martians) and that the blood she transfused into him will eventually transform him into a White Martian as well.

What does Lillian plan to do with Kara’s blood? How will becoming a White Martian change J’onn, and is it too late to stop the process? I’m really excited for this week’s massive 4-series crossover. These crossovers are the main reason why I’m still watching all of these series. In the past we’ve seen Supergirl interact with Barry, but that was in Earth 3, so I’m curious to see how her world will collide with the other series. I’m also interested in what this “Heroes v Aliens” title means, especially given that Kara is herself an alien. The action starts tonight and then continues the following three nights with The Flash, Arrow, and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow.

On tonight’s Supergirl midseason finale/crossover premiere, “Medusa,” a superhero crossover event begins with Barry Allen and Cisco Ramon from The Flash seeking Kara’s help with an alien invasion; at the same time, Eliza comes to town to celebrate Thanksgiving with her daughters, which seems like the perfect opportunity for Alex to come out to her mother. Meanwhile, Winn and James consider telling Kara the truth about the Guardian; and Kara wants to team up with Lena Luthor to combat a deadly virus unleashed by CADMUS.

Check out the start of the crossover event tonight on The CW at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Timeless, Gotham, Lucifer, Jane the Virgin, and People of Earth.

Recap/Review – Crazy Ex-Girlfriend – 11/18/16

This week’s episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (titled: “Why is Josh’s Ex-Girlfriend Eating Carbs?”) revolved around Rebecca wanting to have a friendship with Valencia when seeing how her life has changed after Josh.

Recap:

crazyexgirlfriendrecap1119smallRebecca and Heather are together once again at the top of the episode. Rebecca talks about Josh, and we realize that Heather has created a way to make a quick buck: every time Rebecca mentions Josh, she has to give her money. Rebecca tries to talk to Paula about Josh, but she’s busy with law school. Darryl and White Josh are at the firm when they discuss an event called Electric Mesa, where people come to “connect, refresh, heal.” Rebecca gets the idea to become friends with Valencia by going to this event, since they are both obviously still heartbroken.

Initially, Valencia turns Rebecca down, but then Rebecca tricks her by offering Dairy Queen. It doesn’t look like Rebecca’s plan is going to work until they both accidently take a drug called triceratops. They both experience very different hallucinations. Valencia’s is in a beautiful ballet with Josh that is emotional and heartbreaking, while Rebecca’s ballet has her dressed up as a triceratops while she attacks Josh.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 11/14/16

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!

scorpion1114smallLast week’s Scorpion was pretty fun. It was election day, and the FBI showed up and asked for Scorpion’s help…but Walter was forced to stay back (and keep an eye on Ralph) because his immigration status was under suspicion. Needless to say, he didn’t like that one bit. The rest of the team figured out that someone had hacked into and was screwing with the votes. In the end, Walt and Ralph escaped their FBI babysitter and helped the team figure out it was people from the Chinese embassy. With the US election in chaos and no president-elect called because of it, it would benefit the Chinese. Toby was great in this one, from his one-liners to how he took over the TV interview and helped talk down the Chinese.

On a personal note, things were all over the map for them all. It seems like Paige and Tim are getting closer (*gag*), so much so that he’s now introduced both her and Ralph to his parents. Ralph told Paige that her happiness is most important, so it’s fine with him if Tim becomes his stepfather, even though he wants Walter to be it instead. But with the rest of the team throwing relationship stats at her about meeting the parents being a precursor to an engagement, Paige seemed like she was freaking out a little. (Thank goodness. Maybe that relationship will be over soon!) And on a very sad note, Happy had to tell Toby that she wasn’t pregnant after all, that her blood test had been a false positive. She broke down, nearly destroying the awesome mechanical crib she’d built, telling him she was looking forward to waiting for her child after school, unlike when she grew up in the orphanage and had no one waiting for her. Toby promised her that they would have that family. She tried to tell Toby she wanted some alone time, but when he went to walk away, he shocked her by turning and getting down on one knee. Since the President of the United States had been so thankful that he’d gotten Walter’s citizenship approved, Happy was free and clear to say yes to the proposal, knowing she and Walt could get a divorce. So among the sadness was a happiness and relief for them both.

On tonight’s episode, “Sly and the Family Stone,” when Team Scorpion travels to Ireland for Megan’s one-year memorial, Walter discovers that a nearby lake’s natural disaster has created a poisonous cloud that could kill everyone in the village. Also, Cabe and Toby try to alleviate the tension between Tim and Walter.

See how Team Scorpion saves the village tonight on CBS at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Chopped, Kevin Can Wait, Man With a Plan, 2 Broke Girls, Cake Wars, & Conviction.
