Lol Diana was actually my pick not too long ago. Faye would have been too obvious. But Diana beeped on my radar. It explained the hatred that Charles had for John it seemed even more personal than witch business. It also explained why Diana is the one whose book of shadows held dark magic info too. She was my pick. I knew they wanted us to think it was Faye and I wanted it to be Melissa but I figured it was Diana. Great episode though
I was expecting hollie or elyse to go. I'd have rather seen hollie go. She did better last night but overall has been inconsistent. Colton did have a rough night. Both performances were weak. Didn't expect nor think that he should have gone home though. I think speaking to his sister who still holds resentment for him making it and her not making it was a kiss of death.lol
I actually didn't have the urge to fast forward through most of the two hours so that's a plus. Hollie did a great job with Adele, although my love for that song would cloud my judgment. The second song. Not so much. Think she might be one of the people going home. She continues to lack presence. Coltons gaga sucked. It had me longing for David cook and Adam Lambert because they were the kings of wicked awesome arrangements and covers of songs. I didn't like the second one either honestly. Elise poor girl just isn't standing a chance here. I thought her no one was pitchy and off key but I still live that texture of her voice.I was excited that she would sing gaye but it was uncomfortable. Skylar was good the first time loathed the second one. For some reason her putting a country twang on everything is annoying. Josh was great both times. Jess was just ok. Philip. Damn that WAS sexy. I loved that version better than the original. Liked his second one too.
I agree with the review. Completely. The entire senior thing has been confusing for a while. I was under the impression from the beginning of this season that Puck, Rachel, Quinn, Finn, and Kurt were the seniors. Now its everyone? After seasons of focusing and sort of developing characters like Rachel, Finn, and Kurt while somehow making room for newbie Blaine they still neglected Mercedes, Tina, Mike etc. And now they'll be gone before we ever got the chance to know them. Stuff is sort of being wrapped in a pretty bow but we've been deprived of so much that its not nearly as satisfying as it should be. Samcedes action made me smile but the random character descriptions of her were off.same with Santana...just yes. I actually loved this episode but I concur with this review in its entirety.
-Sloan is pure unadulterated entertainment, so anything with him.
- hopefully all of them. Because they choose not to give us much on April asks Avery in regards to that its easy for some to assume they fail. It would be most entertaining if despite all that mer somehow fails.
- essentially he wasn't but it frustrates me quite often that they all deliberately choose to not take mark seriously at all. It borders on being disrespectful and it happens frequently. It could have been done tactfully.
- I kind if hope so. They've been thru so much already. But they have to forgive each other. Unlike most fans I believe they're both victims in their marriage. They hurt each other and its beyond infidelity and abortion. On the other hand they both deserve better than what they're getting right now. I don't see Owen as a bad person no more then Christina. I understand them both so I hope ut doesn't become a skewed thing as their other stories have been where no matter what Owen does he becomes the pariah of his peers and fans. I hats that.
I'm enjoying it. I accept the fact that I'll have to suspend belief on many things. I agree with pretty much all of thus. I like the fast and witty dialogue. I appreciate the fact that they toned down the delusions of grandeur and cheesy lines. I hope all the cases don't end up interconnected and linking with the president either. I'm also very eager to delve into the team 's pasts. I was instantly intrigued by how protective of Olivia Huck is. He's already a man of few words so he's very mysterious and has me very curious. I thought it was a strong episode. I liked the pilot too but I could see them find their footing a bit more in this episode.
My jaw dropped in that wtf way. What was that?! I mean in the end it essentially doesn't matter but I surely would have expected hollie to go home. She should have gone home. Should have been in the bottom three.
James ...oh brother. I love all types but that song had me popping Advil and the blond hair doesn't suit him. Jennifer was great. And again thank the heavens for Jimmy. He provides the constructive criticism that the judges lack. I miss Simon.
Nice review! And congratulations on the baby? Unless you were kidding then you can ignore. Skylar was kind of pitchy. I thoroughly enjoyed colton and his rendition better then the original. Jessica was fantastic. Joshua was good but didn't like the song choice same for Phillip. Poor hollie was just not good.she was trying too hard. Elyse chose a great song and fell flat. I love when she and Philip duet. Same with josh and jess but I hate skylar and colton duets where they sing a song that suits her and he looks uncomfortable the whole time. Kind of wish they'd mix and match a bit more. Top performances for me were Jessica, colton, and Joshua
I thought this was another spectacular episode. I'm not typically catty but I can't help but wonder if those saying Shemar is a bad actor only there for his looks or that Morgan is a pointless character are just delusional. Shemar has quite the resume and is an underrated actor who has done great work. Morgan is one of the most complex characters on the show who unfortunately spends most if the series taking the backseat to the likes of hotch and Reid (whom I adore). I loved the emotional aspect of the episode and that hotch backed him unlike his hesitance before. All the girls were on fire including jj who falls flat for me and Emily who I barely tolerate. I thought the profiling was interesting as they tried to suss out various reasons as to why his cousin was behaving that way. I have to say Morgan was due for some focus and this and Foundation haven't disappointed. Great review :)
And josh was sweet and erratic and all over. Ray suddenly became a villain and nora was all confusing. It just left me confused and not nearly as interested as I wanted to be. The highlight was seeing josh hug sally. That physical barrier always gets to me and I love how intimate they all manage to get regardless of that. It was great seeing those two connect.. the heart of this show is in those moments when they cross paths and interact with each other. There wasn't enough of that especially for the finale. Overall it seemed a bit lackluster compared to other episodes this seasons.
I think you write pretty fair reviews, although on occasion your bias for josh comes through :) I agree with all if this. I recorded and found myself checking to see how much was left about every five minutes. The Siren thing annoyed me. I never bought that he was so irrevocably in love with her but I never understood his love beyond guilt for the red head either.I too was waiting for suren to stake her mom. When she got staked instead I was too frustrated to care . Sally's story seemed to be a setup for next season I guess. I didn't understand her plan for going to limbo and when she shredded herself and pleaded for yge boys I sighed. She's flawed and I know they care about her but they never think about her when their consumed in their own stuff. It sucks.
I didn't notice much about the episode because I was too distracted with the 8th wonder of the world that is the breathrakingly gorgeous and supremely talented Matt Bomer. And the irony that Blaine of all people felt robbed of attention. I thought it was solid.
I was starting to believe that Paul was alive as well. I don't think he has Michael. I think he, like her, is searching for him too. I'm not even sure that he's a traitor or bad. Rogue with a different agenda perhaps...or maybe tar that realizationt that the agency isn't what its cracked up to be and ended up on the other end of their wrath.
This review pretty much summed up my sentiments exactly. This show is amazing. Even the things you could nitpick about seem to work. All the characters have come into their own in the course od the season and I live the chemistry amongst them. And yes the music is awesome. The badassness of Reese never gets old.
Great review. I loved the show. It's fast paced, witty, and intriguing. They nailed each and every character instantly. Giving us just enough of their personality to help distinguish them from one another and set the tone of relationships but not enough where the mystery is gone for them all. Its hard for most shows to do that in a pilot. The cast has instant chemistry. It makes up for losing Justice, Injustice, and Lie to Me but still has its own edge. I loved the sense of urgency and focus on an obscure field like crisis management. The case with sully took me on an emotional ride. I lived Olivia, Stephan, Harrison, and Abby had me the moment she uttered her first lines. Also I'm so happy and its so great that Kerry Washington is the first black female in thirty years to be the lead on a network non cable show. And the fact that it hadn't dawned on me until later means that it stands on its own without that being an issue. But had to give kudos.
He had a nice run. I love the kid qbd I think he's super talented. I just don't think this competition was a right fit for him. He'll definitely get somewhere though. That I don't doubt. The kid has chops and a couple of genres of music that he nestles perfectly in. Indie/neo soul. He'll kill it there. Hollie has got to go. I forget about her until they show her and she has no presence. At least the others stand out. I think Elise will be soon to follow. I get the feeling she's tired of being there and she's not mainstream enough for this completion which sucks. I always love that she and Phillip and colton don't compromise who they are. In some ways if they win it'll tarnish their authenticity. Thank God for Jimmy. The only person who says it as it is. I wish he'd judge.
I loved this episode. Josh really moved me and even though I questioned both the wonky timeline and injured Julia sitting there it was still an emotional punch when it was revealed that she was dead. I felt bad for sally and was bored with aidan. I want to see the friendship in the forefront after all this pain and suffering amongst them.
I loved this week's theme. It was the best so far and for the most part everyone was good. I think in this day and age where most of the youth have gone retro it isn't forced to have them sing 80's music.
I thought deandre was great.he totally pulls off debarge with ease.no he won't win.this competition isn't designed for someone like him to win.and he does in fact have the quality of Maxwell, benet., and deangelo, maybe some robin but not timberlake. Philip takes me someplace special when he sings. He was great. Joshua was great as well. I agree this time with Jessica. Up tempo destroys her she should stick to ballads.her and josh were great. Colton and Elise were ok but not great.a pity because I like them. Hollie is forgettable and skylar was good but still wildly overrated.
I don't think its fair to call the reviewer racist. It's unfounded, unsupported,and not even the issue. I don't think she is and honestly it 's an insult to actual and real race issues. I think she's biased, bordering on incapable of giving an objective review, and perhaps prejudicial in that she cant impartially critique contestants who fall outside the genres of music she personally enjoys. But not racist. I think commenters here are under the impression that some objectivity is a prerequisite for reviewing, but in actuality she reviews like most fans of the show with an unmistakable streak of bias. Go figure. I think if her sardonic tone that often laces each review didn't come across as rude, insulting, and irritating rather than humorous and fun no one would actually think twice about her reviews and what she says in them. I read them to chuckle personally. Occasionally enjoy the few kernels of truth and read the other comments. I don't expect objectivity or impartiality anymore. You'd be less annoyed if you adjust to that. She does offer up consistency though. Consistent reviewing and grading. Philip will always get a 4 or 5. DeAndre a 1. Jessica a 3. Regardless. If she's anything she's consistent.
- I like the cute moments so Kate checking out the Scotsman package was fun. Agree about the girls though. Lanie tends to be underused sometimes and its hard to remember they're friends.
-yes because I love them but no because it flowed nicely without them.
-yes on both accounts.
-no.
- frustrated. But I get it...sort of.
I too missed reading a great review on last week's episode. Which was a truly spectacular episode, one of the best of the season.
I thought it was just me who thought of Edward Cullen when watching the unsub. The resemblence and mannerisms were uncanny. That was just a weird and creepy episode! It was strong though and kudos to the Goob. Hotch kicking Burt was great and I don't think there us too little of him since they focus on him and Reid more then anyone. There was a bit of them jumping to conclusions without adequate explainations.
