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

This week’s episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (titled: “When Will Josh and His Friend Leave Me Alone?”) packed an emotional punch in many ways, and we were able to get a few more musical numbers to round it out!

Recap:

crazyexgirlfriendrecap1112smallThis episode picks up at the airport at the scene of last week’s cliffhanger. Rebecca confronts Greg and asks why he is leaving. He tells her he’s going to Emory. He was unable to say good-bye to her because then he’d never leave. They tell each other they loved the other, but then Greg recaps their relationship with a song titled, “It Was a Sh*t Show” and then leaves for good.

Paula tries to comfort a depressed Rebecca while dealing with her secret that she is pregnant. She and Scott have a discussion, and he tells her that she has options. Paula immediately refuses and really starts to believe her dream of becoming a lawyer is over.

While Rebecca is attempting to heal, she is visited by “memory spirits” in the corporeal forms of Greg and Josh. She wants them to go away, but they can’t since the memories of them are all over the house. And by memories, they mean sex memories. They jump into an energetic song and dance number titled, “We Tapped That A**”. Rebecca then attempts to torch all the items that remind her of the guys, effectively burning down her apartment. She then turns to Heather for comfort and a place to stay. And we learn that Heather lives with her parents!

Recap/Review – Crazy Ex-Girlfriend – 11/4/16

Yesterday was a new episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, titled “All Signs Point To Josh… Or Is It Josh’s Friend?” As always, I enjoyed it, so check out my recap/review now!

Recap:

crazyexgfrecap114smallIn the beginning of this episode, we find Rebecca and Josh in bed together, then Greg shows up with a pizza. (What?!) They invite Greg into bed with them, and they seem cozy together. They’re all in agreement that being in a relationship together is a fabulous idea.

While this seems ridiculous…it is! The scenario is actually Rebecca questioning a thrupple she found on Craiglist, who are in a polyamorous relationship. She thinks that her relationship with Josh and Greg is like theirs. They explain to her that their relationship isn’t a “default” option for Rebecca’s inability to choose between the two men in her life. They tell her she’s in a love triangle.

Rebecca breaks into a Marilyn Monroe-esque song about love triangles entitled, “The Math of Love Triangles.” In the song, a group of men dressed like professors attempt to explain the geometric part of “love triangle” quite unsuccessfully, and by the end of the number, Rebecca hasn’t learned much about her predicament.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 10/21/16

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!

crazyexgirlfriend1021smallTonight, The CW’s musical comedy, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, returns for its second season. When the first season left off, Paula was extremely disappointed that Rebecca had lied to her about sleeping with Greg – especially with everything she had done to help Rebecca try to win over Josh. Rebecca asked Greg to go with her to Josh’s sister’s wedding (ignoring the fact that she had been uninvited). At the wedding, Josh told Rebecca she looked beautiful but then warned her about Greg’s dark side. Greg’s insecurity and his plentiful drinking at the wedding caused him to misread some glances between Rebecca and Josh, and he thought Rebecca was planning to break up with him. Josh went home to sleep it off. Meanwhile Valencia tried to pressure Josh to propose at the wedding, but when she realized he was still into Rebecca, she called it quits. Outside, Josh confessed his love for Rebecca, and they finally kissed. Rebecca was so happy that she accidentally dropped her guard and told Josh the stalkery truth about her move to West Covina – and he looked totally freaked out.

Will Josh still feel the same about Rebecca now that he knows the truth? How will Greg react when he hears about Rebecca kissing (and possibly sleeping with) Josh? Who will Rebecca choose? And will Paula ever forgive Rebecca? I’m sure her getting together with Josh would surely help in that matter! I’m looking forward to another fun-filled season of wacky antics and witty songs.

On tonight’s premiere, “Where Is Josh’s Friend?” Rebecca is convinced that Josh is in love with her, and Greg is nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Paula comes to terms with what drove her obsession with Rebecca’s love life; and Darryl and White Josh try to navigate their new relationship.

Find out what’s happening with Rebecca’s love life tonight on The CW at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Black Mirror, MacGyver, Hamilton’s America, Z Nation, Van Helsing, and Quarry.

tbbt1017smallLast week on The Big Bang Theory, Amy’s apartment flooded, and Penny suggested she and Leonard stay in her apartment while Amy moves into Sheldon and Leonard’s apartment with Sheldon. It took some convincing – where Leonard told him he could count it as a scientific experiment – but Sheldon finally agreed, although he decided that, to be in neutral territory, he and Amy would stay in Penny’s apartment instead. After words of wisdom from their friends and a proposal from Amy that all sex stays off the table (much to Sheldon’s relief), they (temporarily) moved in together. Of course, it wasn’t that easy. Sheldon had to put up with Amy coughing up phlegm in the bathroom while brushing her teeth, and in no surprise, Sheldon was kind of a bear to live with… He snores – bad – and ended up sleep-pushing Amy off the bed. The next day, Sheldon said he’d slept like a baby, while Amy was ready to quit, but they traded barbs and burns back and forth, which actually turned them on. So silly!

And can we talk about how weird Raj is? LOL He went with Howard and Bernie to her OB-GYN appointment, which was strange enough, but then he made a comment about how perfect Bernie’s cervix is, which took it over-the-top weird. Annnnnnd he’s the only one of the three who knows the sex of the baby because his father’s a gynecologist and he saw the sex on the ultrasound. LMAO

On tonight’s episode, “The Hot Tub Contamination,” Leonard and Penny must separate a quarreling Sheldon and Amy when their cohabitation does not go as planned, and Sheldon threatens to break off their relationship when Amy refuses to adhere to the bathroom schedule. Also, Howard and Bernadette find unexpected guests at their house when they decide to stay home from a planned vacation.

Find out who the unexpected guests are tonight on CBS at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Cake Wars, Kevin Can Wait, 2 Broke Girls, Halloween Baking Championship, Scorpion, & Conviction.

legendsoftomorrow1013smallTonight, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow returns for its second season on The CW. As the first season came to a close, the group finally managed to put an end to Vandal Savage’s evil plan to conquer the world by killing him simultaneously in three different time periods – Mick and Ray took him out in 1958; Sara, Jax, and Professor Stein in 1975; and Carter, Hunter, and Kendra in 2021. However, even with Savage gone, there was still an explosive meteor to contend with, and so Hunter used the Waverider to fly the meteor into the sun but miraculously managed to survive himself. As the team reconvened in 2016, Kendra and Carter decided to head off on their own to give their relationship a go. But soon after they left, a second Waverider crashed down in front of the team, and out stepped Rex Tyler (Patrick J. Adams), who warned the group that they will die if they get back on board.

Who is this mystery man, how did he get a Waverider, and how does he know the future? Will the group heed his warning or just head off again on another mission? I’m looking forward to seeing what time-traveling adventures await the group this season, though I hope the writers don’t try to stretch out a single story over the entire season like last year. I would love to see several different arcs and villains over the course of this second season.

On tonight’s premiere, “Out of Time,” Dr. Nate Heywood, an unconventional historian, makes a shocking discovery. Nate then seeks out Oliver Queen for help to find the scattered Legends. Once reunited, they try to protect Albert Einstein from being kidnapped before the Nazis destroy New York City with a nuclear bomb. Meanwhile, Ray notices that Sara has a mission of her own, which leads them both to face her nemesis, Damien Darhk.

Check out the season premiere tonight on The CW at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Grey’s Anatomy, Superstore, The Good Place, The Blacklist, Pitch, 60 Days In, and Falling Water.
