I watched:

LUCIFER: With Pecker now broken off, LUCIFER is trying to get things
back to normal. Unfortunately, he goes about this the wrong way and
tries to relive the past. Will he ever learn? Meanwhile, Charlotte has
her past catch up with her as well and this time around she plans to
correct her mistakes. Meanwhile, Cain is scared of Amenadiel so he
still works to get Maz to help him...now in his quest to kill Amenadiel!
Luckly for her, she left a clue behind under his couch. The case of
the week with a #MeToo inducing baseball player was good background for
this episode and the end result was the best hour this series has put
forth this season.

iZOMBIE: The brain of the week comes from a former guest star in ther
form of a crooked cop. Even as this show has gone overboard this season
with the personalities completely overtaking Liv, they chickened out and
tossed in a scene of Liv acting completely normal as she jumped on her
boyfriend's back and rode him off to the bedroom. I guess they figured
that fans weren't ready for her to have a male personality in that
moment...even if they did sneak in a bit of that concept later in the
episode. Meanwhile, Major is assigned to find out who the new Renegade
is and kill them...and he manages the first part in short order.
Meanwhile, Ravi's new daughter (why would Ravi be in charge of her
instead of Liv?) wants to check off her bucket list before she kicks the
bucket. Meanwhile, a coyote is caught and lies to Chase Graves and
implicakes a local, well known, preacher. From there, we see that not
only is Chase Graves losing it personally, he may be losing some of his
followers as well. Good episode.

DEAR WHITE PEOPLE: I finished up the season of this show...another very
good season worth watching. Episode #8 and #9 were the best of the
bunch, which might be meaningful in that they took up slightly different
subject matter. The search for the biggest internet troll pays off
(good choice of baddie), but I'm not so sure the search for the person
who burned down the white dorm/house really did. Meanwhile, the search
for secret societies paid off a bit in that one was found...but is that
the same one connected to the Hotep fool? Tessa Thompson (WESTWORLD,
ANNIHILATION) shows up in a guest role playing, more or less, a more
successful version of Stacey Dash.

Before game night, I watched:

THE WILD WILD WEST:
"The Night of the Burning Diamond". Whiler assigned to protecting a
Serbian diamond exhibit, the diamonds are stolen out from under
their noses. It turns out they were stolen by a man who made an
elixor from burnt diamonds that makes him move too fast to be seen,
a la that ep of Star Trek or The Flash. I kinda liked that they
tried to make it "scientific" but I sure hope his ulitmate goal was
worh far more than that of the diamonds he burned. I am also
skeptical that burning up from moving too fast would leave no trace
of a corpse.

The ending was strong - I'm not sure the rest of the episode was.

I don't see how this season doesn't end with an all-out war (among
multiple factions!) at this point.

I hope these guys have a decent finale written, because if The C-Wub is
going to renew "The 100", it makes it significantly less likely that
they're also going to renew this show... :|

> What did you watch?

In addition to the above two shows, I also watched:

The Arrangement (recorded) - "Trust" (ep. #2.9; directed by Jonathan Frakes!!).
This may be the most subtly "good" show I'm watching right now. But
this penultimate episode of season #2 had a lot of really good stuff -
the scene where Megan and Kyle ambush Terence (and DeAnn) at the
rehersal dinner about leaving IHM was all kinds of awesome.
Unfortunately, things go off-track soon after. Megan is assuming that
Kyle is the one who "betrayed" them, but I'm wondering if it was
actually Shaun. Meanwhile, Kyle does successfully spring Zach from
IHM's clutches, and he promptly appears to leave town.
The last scene of this episode was a disappointment though. Let's
hope they rebound and give us a season finale every bit as good as
season #1's was...


Recorded for later: Nothing! - Monday's still suck right now... :/

There was still a lot of stupid from LUCIFER until near the end, but the
Cain/Maz stuff was good as was pretty much everything concerning
Charlotte this episode.

Yep. If nothing else, there needs to be a culling of all the religious
folks since those nutters are a huge danger to society.

Agreed. At this point, the only thing iZOMBIE still has going for it is
that CW is adding an extra night of programming next fall. At this
point, though, the best chances for iZOMBIE may lie is a final season on
some outlet I don't get.(think Audience network or Hulu).

I'm confused why does Cain want his mark back now???

Happy to see good news for Amenadiel!

Agreed. I really didn't think they'd croak that character, but then,
they've been dead before. If it hadn't ended the way it did, it would
have mostly rated as 'boring' except for the Maze stuff.

You didn't mention Alexa Doig.

Nor did you ask what I watched. :(

But Ob did earlier, so ...

Some trash gossip show called DAILY MAIL. Their first shocking
revelation was that Leonardo DeCrapio was caught - caught mind you -
giving his girlfriend a hug at the airport!!! Their second shocking
revelation was a Playboy Playmate's best friend revealing that the first
Playmate had had sex with Donald Trump, which they were both single and
dating! Gasp!! The second Playmate, the one telling the tale, looked
to be in her 80s and not holding up well. I checked and she's ... 51.
Madre de Dios!

STUPIDGIRL
OMG this was painful to watch. Written by Jessica Queller, who'd we'd
previously established as one of the show's very worst writers (and
that's saying something) from her previous atrocities on this show.

So, somehow Reign (or her Goddess) has arranged an unscheduled solar
eclipse. I'm not sure how she did this except by knocking the Moon out
of orbit, which should provide it's own set of problems. The last time
I saw this bit was the 1980 Flash Gordon, but there it was the planet
Mongo and it was being played for laughs. Anyway, somehow they've moved
the Moon millions of miles without anybody noticing, but it's going to
take a few hours to do the last 2000 miles (at which point they seem to
be assuming it will stop) to create a total eclipse over National City.

It turns out this is *bad* because Queller is so stupid she thinks
Supergirl is completely powerless under a total eclipse *and* it's just
like flicking off a light switch. So how come she has powers at night?
Or indoors!?!?!? And why don't they supercharge her with the DEO's
yellow sun tanning bed? Also, the total eclipse is also in place over
Reign's Fortress of Muditude, far away in a desert, and possibly not
even in our reality. Idiots.

Meanwhile we finally find out how Lena has been holding Reign in that
glass cage - she's invented Kryptonite. Well, gee, that's just swell,
but they'd already established Kryptonite doesn't WORK against Reign.
And how come it didn't deter either of the other WorldKillers for an
instant?

Anyway the girls go into some dream dimension and constantly tell each
other stuff they can't possibly know. Endlessly.

They manage to kill two of the three WorldKillers, irrevocably changing
the next thousand years (why does the Legion think this is a desirable
outcome? What makes them think they'll even still exist!?). But Reign
just gets their powers, and, now that she's like the most powerful being
imaginable, she only has to do one more thing, and that's kill her
daughter. Sigh.

I can't wait for the Legion arc to be over with so I can bail on this
horrid crapfest again.

Yeah, that's a problem, isn't it? He's stealing and destroying diamonds
to ... give him power to be rich. Hmmm.

It would probably leave a pile of ash, but I'm not sure you'd suspect
that that used to be a person.

Still this is one of my favorite eps. Note that Arti finally has

Amenadiel scared him about how short his life now is so he is trying to
get his immortality back.

It really makes zero sense since God isn't likely to *reward* him for
being bad by giving him what he wants.

> Happy to see good news for Amenadiel!

Yep...and apparently he was right that God was treating him the same way
souls in Hell are treated: self inflicted wounds. Of course, the
ramifications of that are that immoral people go to heaven because they
won't feel guilty about what they have done. God works in mysterious ways.

I really want to get to this, but I think I'll probably try to go
through my backlog of Grownish first. They're almost the same show. I
have the season saved up on my DVR and want to try and clear out a show
or two before my staycation ends.

Billions - "Not You, Mr. Drake." - Chuck and Axe team up to beat the
system. We already knew Axe was amoral at best. But Chuck framing an
innocent man was a bridge too far for me. I will be happy to see his
former teammates go after him and hopefully take him down.


Timeless - "The Day Reagan Was Shot" - Not worth discussing. 2 more
hours then it's finally over.

Yeah, but Caine spent such a long time as an immortal trying to die
it's really hard for me to imagine him wanting to get his immortality
back so quickly. He knows just exactly how it feels to see everyone he
knows die and even cities that he knows die over time. That doesn't
change just because he's been mortal for a few days.

This is probably like the National Enquirer setup where Trump actually

I agree. The 180 was pure plot contrivance...I guess to show us that
Cain is just as petty/bratty as LUCIFER when it comes to losing.

No reason at all as far as we know. He tried to show her the Devil face
once, but suffered some sort of performance anxiety and hasn't had the

Every time I watch one of these, I keep thinking, "Oh, Anim8r must have

Yeah, and the moment the Evil Fortress collapsed, the eclipse ended,
which means the moon must have snapped instantly back to its normal
place, which wouldn't throw the oceans across the continents or rip the
earth apart with massive gravity tidal forces or anything.

Maybe he is still worried about that whole 'humans faced with the

showing her his wings really help him in his quest to get her to believe

She would be convinced that he isn't human, sure, but would she be
convinced that he is the Devil? He still takes quite a bit of pride in
seeing himself as not part of dad's airforce.

2 hour finale.

I don't like wishing for the cancellation of shows since others clearly
get some enjoyment out of them. But lets just say, if this show never
comes back, I won't miss it...

On Monday May 7 I watched:

BLINDSPOT: Fix My Present Havoc; City Folks Under Wraps
I seemed to have missed quite a few episodes of shows due to Cable outages.
Here i missed the first of the above, & had to resort to 7Plus which would
be the equal of IVIEW except for the compulsory ads.
The 2nd one was successfully recorded.
Grade B for both episodes.

SUPERGIRL / 3x17 / Trinity

[Still reeling after learning about Lena’s secret, Supergirl asks
Guardian for a favor that could alter his relationship with Lena
forever. Meanwhile, with all three Worldkillers united, Supergirl and
the team brace for an epic battle.]

Sam spends a lot of time with Julia/Purity, who I couldn't stop thinking
looks a lot like ARROW's Curtis after a mishap at an estrogen factory.
Supergirl, Alex and Lena eventually find Sam and Julia. Later, all hell
breaks loose as Team Supergirl gets into a huge winner-take-all brawl
with Team Reign. Reign beats Supergirl again one-on-one AGAIN, but
Purity and Pestilence end up taking each other out because...budget
cuts? a fondness for anticlimactic plot developments? the writers care
even less than I do? So I guess we'll get one more round of Supergirl
versus Reign before it's all said and done. I'm kinda hope that Reign
gets the sweep.

In other news, I'm pretty sure that someone actually decided that Lena
doesn't have any more kryptonite since there wasn't any at her one lab.
Because she couldn't stash it someplace else, I guess. Like at home. Or
at one of the thousand other labs that a company like L-Corp would have
scattered around the world. Or a safety deposit box at the bank. I'm
also pretty sure that someone relocated the moon in the sky to create an
eclipse and then said that a temperature drop of 50 degrees or more
should be expected, but that stuff was too deeply stupid even for this
show, so I must have imagined it. I certainly didn't want to go back to
double-check.

Grade: C-

iZOMBIE / 4x10 / Yipee Ki Brain, Motherscratcher

[When Liv consumes the brain of a vice detective who doesn’t play by the
rules, her newfound recklessness gets her into trouble. Meanwhile, Major
is coming really close to discovering Liv’s secret.]

The brain-of-the-week once again has little to offer to the any of the
various ongoing plots. Blaine's dad finally appears again in this one,
making an example of Blaine's abusive childhood nanny. On the human
smuggling front, one of Liv's Renegade team is caught by
Fillmore-Graves; to protect a lot of secrets, Liv eventually turns him
into a zombie at his request. Major eventually figures out that Liv is
Renegade 2.0. And on the Isobel front, Ravi promises her mother that he
will look out for the girl, so he splits his time between his doc side
working to find a cure for her and his big brother/surrogate dad side
wanting to protect her virtue after she expresses regret over all of the
things that her premature death will deprive her of. For her part, she
seems to enjoy torturing him (in a good way) by feeding into his worst
fears. And lastly, Clive was off doing things that had me thinking that
he was on zombie brains himself.

And in a great meta moment, Ravi critiques an in-show zombie show and
says, "Oh, no. It's the crap episode of Zombie High where it's clear the
show ran out of money, so everything cool happens off-screen, and the
characters just talk about it afterwards." And immediately afterwards,
Clive relates a story to Liv about his recent activities -- activities
that take place off-screen.

Grade: B-

THE CROSSING / 1x06 / LKA

[Jude is forced to confront his past when he travels back to Oakland to
seek assistance from a former colleague. Meanwhile, Caleb reaches out to
Marshall after noticing heightened security around the camp; and Sophie
experiences an unexpected setback with her plan to help Reece reunite
with her daughter.]

I could do without all of the Jude backstory since if I wanted to watch
a hybrid family drama/cop show, I'd watch a hybrid family drama/cop
show. Stick to the present and let Jude find out who's dirty and I'm
all-in for that approach. And speaking of the present, the bearded camp
weasel continues to be a weasel, but at least he gets some pain this
time around. And Sophie's heart condition conveniently flares up after
being completely unnoticeable in the past until Reece pointed out
something that only she could have noticed. And Reece herself continues
to be awesome. We don't see anything of Emma again this week, but the
episode ends with Lindauer in the custody of Jude and Deputy Skeevy, so
that's a pretty significant development.

Grade: B-

You're right. "50 degrees, maybe more"
I guess I thought even Jessica Queller couldn't be stupid enough to
think the temperature drops more than 50 degrees during an eclipse. If
she was thinking Celsius ... no, that's worse. I just asked Siri, and
she said "up to 28 degrees F" That really wasn't hard to fact check.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the only time I've seen Lucifer try
to show his devil face and fail was when he tried to show it to Chloe,
and whenever he's near Chloe his powers and abilities don't work. Has
he tried showing his devil face to anyone else since then?

As near as we can tell, he cannot show his Devil face anymore because he

wings again.

The show paid some lip service where LUCIFER explained to Amenadiel ( I
think) that he no longer has any ability to do the Devil's face.

Oh, good idea! But anyway he does have wings so I still don't know why he said he couldn't show Chloe he was the devil. Yes I saw you said that maybe she would think he was a regular angel so maybe that's why he didn't but at least she would know he wasn't human so that's a start. Also too bad that Amen. is gone (I'm really going to miss him!) but Linda saw Luci's devil face and she could tell Chloe the truth. Also Maze could tell Chloe except then Chloe would find out who Maze really is. Well I hope SOMETHING happens next week.

And was there any reason why Supergirl couldn't just, you know, fly
someplace outside of the eclipse zone if she was worried about her
powers being zapped? This is reminding me of HEROES and how the writers
there seemed to think that an eclipse would affect the entire world.

Yes, the eclipse was apparently worldwide, as it also happened on the
exact same time schedule in the Fortress of Muditude. From the other
things said here, I have no doubt that Jessica Queller is just that
stupid.

[LENA] That eclipse was like someone grabbed on the moon and pulled.
The Earth and the Moon turn on an axis, and no amount of technology can
change that.
That's because this isn't technology.
- You should be in the med bay.
- Fine.
This is older than science.
- Please don't say "magic.
" - Dark magic.

So, whatever ritual the Worldkillers are doing, it's creating the
eclipse.
The world can't live without sunlight.
Nothing can, including Supergirl.
How long have we got? - Two hours until totality.
- Then what? Temperature drops 50 degrees, maybe more.

[CHUCKLES] The fortress is gone, like it was never there.
Stone turned to sand.
And Reign is gone, too, she's untraceable.
You know that eclipse ended as soon as the fortress was destroyed.



It hurts just to read.

So we can look forward to Supergirl randomly falling out of the sky as
she flys around the city?

Are you trying to make us believe that if we told you that started
happening on the show you _wouldn't_ watch just to see it yourself? ;)

Hey, speaking of which, why the fuck is Barry so stupid he stopped
vibrating his face in front of Stardoe?

Didn't she insist on knowing his identity? If so, then that blur trick
wouldn't have satisfied her.

No. She recognizes him because he doesn't bother to blur his face any
more:

Just that thing Why do you still have it on? My

It helps me protect my identity.

No.
It's doing a terrible job.

- What? -

Yes, you see, that stoic jawline, patrician profile.
You're so obviously the speedster I tried to procure from the warden.
May he RIP.
- Come on.

- I'm doing it.

- Hello, handsome.

- Hello.

To think I had The Flash in my grasp.
What a pretty penny I could have gotten for that sale.

Ah, yes. Apparently he was putting too much trust in the headgear to
disguise himself. It's interesting that she's the first one to see
through it. Not that his voice and height and the skinny frame should
also be clues, or anything.

And the fact that she's seen civilian him as a speedster, but it never
occurred to her that that speedster was Da Flash ...

Yeah, when someone says "I have a speedster," how many possibilities are
there, really? Young black guy, young white girl, young white guy, old
white guy. Not a tough call.
