Time Gets Away From Me
Which leaves me with less time to do posts, but I wanted to do the rest of the week in recap form before the new week starts. Nothing was really worthy of me doing a full recap (except for Community), so I’m just going to touch on everything.
Bones – “The Couple in the Cave”
- I honestly don’t pay that much attention to this show anymore because if I did, I would get SO UPSET. They did write Brennan much better this week, not that the people online recognize that they’ve been writing her poorly. Gah. Other than that, I actually really liked Hannah. She was pretty awesome, and she makes Booth happy. As much as I want Booth and Brennan to get together, Brennan said no, guys. Booth isn’t Chase (apparently), and he needed to move on (for now). I also figured out how the killer was simply because he was in so much of the episode.
Fringe – “The Box”
- This episode got a little slow in the middle, but overall, it was really good. There was a good moment between Peter and Walter, even if it was really sad. Fauxlivia is AWESOME. (Not as much as our Olivia but whatever.) I’m upset at the people who have been hating on her and on Peter. I just love them all. I’m liking this alt-universe/our universe thing they’ve got going on, and I thought it was really cool that Walter inherited Massive Dynamic. It just feels dangerous. Plus, I appreciated the Fauxlivia/Peter moments (even if I wish it was Olivia/Peter).
The Mentalist – “Cackle-Bladder Blood”
- The episode was a typical Mentalist episode, except we dealt with Jane’s brother-in-law. Also, Lisbon had a cute encounter with an elephant, and Van Pelt got all dressed up to help Jane. I liked it better than last week’s, but next week? Is supposed to be a continuation of the kidnapping plot! I’m excited.
Smallville – “Shield”
- I’m not sure I actually want to talk about this episode. I liked Cat Grant well enough, and her scenes with Oliver were okay, as were Tess’s scenes. Things I didn’t like: EVERYTHING ELSE. I should have known I wasn’t going to like the episode when Allison Mack wasn’t in the credits. I was upset about the Chlollie, Clark’s lack of reaction, Lois’s random non-plot in Egypt (thought she was going to Kenya?), and Tess’s stand-in impression of Chloe. I’m probably not going to watch this week’s, but I have to watch the 200th episode. Gah. Then, I’ll probably skip everything until “Luthor,” then until AM comes back, or maybe I’ll watch some scenes online.
Supernatural – “Two and a Half Men”
- It wasn’t that this was a bad episode. It just wasn’t that great, probably because it was a lot of filler. Dean with the baby was SO ADORABLE, and I was amused that the baby turned black. I missed parts of the shapeshifter plot, I guess, because I got really confused in the middle of the episode. But why did they take the baby to the Campbells? Sam’s idea. He’s evil (I want him to be evil so bad.), and the Campbells are not to be trusted. Ben and Lisa both annoyed me this episode, but Dean with the Impala at the end made up for EVERYTHING else. EVERYTHING.
HIMYM – “Cleaning House”
- The beginning of this episode was a little slow, but the end was adorable. I liked that Barney decided he was black, and I was glad Wayne Brady guest-starred again. The scene between Barney and his mom was the best thing ever. I loved it. Jennifer Morrison shows up on October 18th, and I am SO EXCITED.
Community – “Accounting for Lawyers”
- This episode was funny, not as funny as the premiere though. Jeff saw some lawyer friend of his, and he went back to lawyer-world for a little bit. Annie knew this lawyer through her Narcotics Anonymous meetings though, and he was the one who turned Jeff in. The gang all went to the lawyer party to “save” Jeff (I think?). Abed, Annie, and Troy had the best adventure ever while trying to get evidence, and by the end of the episode, Jeff realized he wanted to hang out with everyone who cared. It was a cute moment.
Also of note: Gabby won Scream Queens! I was really excited about this. Seth still isn’t going on Top Chef: Just Desserts, which sucks, and JJ left Criminal Minds.
I haven’t watched the episode yet, but I’m going to. JJ is my second favorite character (after Reid), and I’m sad to see her go. Like I was sad when Cameron left House and Chloe left Smallville.
All my characters are leaving. It’s so depressing.
That’s all for this week. Tomorrow begins a new week with a new Chuck and Castle!
