“Real is just a matter of perception.”
I didn’t post this week because I actually did my homework, and then I had Fall Break. So, recaps of the recaps…
Chuck – “Chuck vs the Cubic Z”
- Steve Austin and Nicole Richie were back in this episode, and Sarah and Chuck were having relationship issues. Basically, Sarah was afraid Chuck was going to want to go too fast into the relationship. Nicole Richie kept pushing this issue, even after she, Sarah, and Chuck had to start running away from Steve Austin. Also, Big Mike came back, helped Morgan, and became assistant manager.
- Best line = “Fire emergency override. Where is it? Or you die.” – Casey
Castle – “Under the Gun”
- This was a really good episode too in which we learned a little about Beckett’s past by meeting her mentor. Obviously, he turned out to be a bad guy, looking for treasure. And that was pretty much what the mystery was – looking for treasure AKA the reason the bad guys killed the victim. Castle was dealing with Alexis wanting a moped-thing as well. Brian Krause (Leo from Charmed) showed up as a priest who might have killed the victim, except he didn’t. 
- Best line = “It’s making me doubt my own genius.” – Castle
Glee – “Grilled Cheesus”
- I knew I was going to have issues with this episode when I found out what it was about. Kurt’s dad has a heart attack, and everyone starts going on about religion and how awesome it is. Kurt is basically like screw you all, and I loved that so much. Except it didn’t really last (per se), which made me sad. And obviously, his dad woke up at the end. I love Sue’s plot though. I guess if you’re religious, this episode wasn’t bad. I just wasn’t overtly thrilled past “Only the Good Die Young,” which was in the first five minutes. Except for ”I Want to Hold Your Hand,” which was absolutely beautiful.
Bones – “The Maggots in the Meathead”
- This episode was way better than I expected. I still cringed every time Brennan did something relative to Jersey Shore, but essentially, the logic behind it was okay. It’s just they made Brennan seem stupid because she didn’t know the difference between a documentary and a reality TV show. With Brennan’s IQ, I’m pretty sure she’d be able to figure that out, guys. Plus, when did Brennan get a TV?
Fringe – “The Plateau”
- I LOVE THIS SEASON. It’s official. This episode was back in the other universe with real Olivia who thinks she’s Fauxlivia. We got to see the other team’s dynamic while they worked a case about a guy, Milo, who (with the help of smart drugs) was able to predict a whole bunch of things by playing out scenarios in his head to a satisfactory outcome. He was killing the people that were trying to take him off the drugs, but when Olivia and Charlie caught up to him, Olivia defied Milo’s predictions because she didn’t know the protocol. Then, to make the episode even more awesome, there was a scene with Olivia and Peter, and it was the best thing ever. Don’t believe me? Here’s a video. See for yourself.
The Mentalist – “The Blood on His Hands”
- Finally a Red John/dealing with Kristina Frye’s kidnapping episode! Except not really. Jane, Lisbon, and the team investigated that one cult place again while other people dealt with Kristina’s kidnapping. Until the end of the episode when THEY FOUND KRISTINA. Except Red John did something to her, and now she thinks she’s dead. It was awesome (and sad).
Smallville – “Supergirl”
- Apparently I watched this episode because I hate myself. In it, Kara showed back up, was awesome and Supergirl, and made Clark look like a total loser. Clark failed to fly, and it was hilarious. Also, Lois randomly showed up from Africa, and then she proceeded to put on random costume after random costume (including a dominatrix outfit) to help Clark/get at Gordon Godfrey (So, apparently, Cat Grant’s plot was important after all). Gordon was infected by Darkseid three weeks ago, and because of this, his eyes would randomly go black like a demon’s and/or someone who was Brainiac infected. Speaking of Brainiac, next week is episode 200, and he’ll be back. I’m not expecting much, though, especially since Lois seems to think it’s her class reunion too. (Remind me why they seem to REALLY want her to be Chloe again?)
Supernatural – “The Third Man”
- CAS CAME BACK. Can you tell I was excited? Dean and Sam were investigating this plague thing, which was caused by the Staff of Moses, or part of it. They figured out where the thing was once Cas (with Sam’s permission) hurt this little kid to figure out which angel had taken his soul. It turns out the angel was Balthazar (also Newton on Fringe), who Cas had a history with (AKA Cas thought he was dead). Raphael followed them to get the staff in order to win Heaven’s Civil War (or something to that effect), but Sam, Dean, Cas, and Balthazar beat Raphael and his men. Sam and Dean had a moment at the end where they talked about hell, but nothing really came of it. Basically, Sam is evil or something because he went to hell and came back and is now sleeping with hookers.
- Best line(s) = “We can rule Moses out as a suspect.” – Cas
-Sam: “Were you racing me?”
Dean: “No. I was kicking your ass.”
Because I went on Fall Break, I didn’t get to watch Community or HIMYM yet, but I did see Top Chef: Just Desserts. It was crazy. Just insane. Ridiculously crazy insane.
