The Family Tv Series Review

An important show that deserved a second chance. There were some unnecessary story-lines that made the show less interesting. The idea of chipping sex offenders is game changing. I did feel that the two main ladies were a bit boring and not strong enough. At first, I was mad when ‘Adam’ turned out not to be The Warrens’ son. But then, four episodes later, they revealed that Ben is a boy who was held captive along with Adam, kidnapped much earlier than Adam. Only the ‘trying to understand a pedophile, and following a recovery of a sex crime victim’ parts were impressive. No one cared about the election or all the other drama.

This is how I rated the show each week.

1. 10
2. 9
3. 4
4. 4
5. 5.5
6. 7.5
7. 9
8. 10
9. 8
10. 10
11. 10
12. 8

Giving us a total of 95 points, divided by 12 episodes = 8.0

The show averaged at either 6 or 7 throughout the whole season, getting better with each episode since episode 6.

Some of the best episodes of the season included: the pilot; episode 8 – when the male cope figured it out and we thought he got himself killed; episode 10, when Hank waits the whole day and night at the police station with the evidence he uncovered; and episode 11 when the pedophile is investigated and we find out how exactly Hank got himself on the registry. Episode 10 is my most favorite.

Some of the most memorable moments and quotes of the series:

  • Neighborhood pedophile calling himself a ‘friendly neighborhood pedophile’
  • Hank mocking Claire saying ‘I hang out with sexual predators and we meet on Monday evenings and swap stories and play softball.’
  • ‘They say once you’ve left home, you can never go back.’- This sounds like that Miranda Lambert song that was featured in Fuller House’s first teaser
  • ‘That’s for Adam, he never got sweets down there.’
  • I was wearing these when he took me.
  • I need to touch the walls.
  • ‘I need back up. I found a metal door. It’s the Adam Warren investigation.’
    ‘I’m not the same person I was.’
    ‘So am I’
    ‘Yeah, but you have a good excuse.’
    ‘So do you.’
  • ‘I regret all those years complaining about Wifi being slow.’
  • ‘They should be chipped.’
  • ‘Do you think he’ll do it though? Take another one?’
    ‘The always do.’
  • ‘I got the results back, it’s not him.’
  • ‘Being alone changes you. Other voices dissappear until you can only hear your own.
  • Hank’s ‘Google me.’
  • ‘But my son had his appendix out when he was 5.’
  • ‘Adam? Ben?’
  • ‘Lucky for me, I was never alone.’
  • ‘He was there with him, for 10 years. He helped him, he knew him. He made Adam’s life bearable. Your son is dead.
  • ‘None of this makes me a kidnapper, at most it makes me a country song.’
  • ‘Just enough to build your trust, so it was confusing when he crossed the line.’
  • ‘We both know how this is gonna end for me. It’s not in a hug.
  • ‘Sex offenders registry. It’s a national database. You gotta do it yearly.’
  • ‘They notify your employer.’
  • ‘Because I watched your son too.’
  • ‘How do you know. That I’m gay?’
  • ‘I think I just came out to you.’
  • ‘I’ll spend the rest of my life wishing he was the one who got sick down there.’
  • ‘We’ll check if there’s any sex offenders in the area.’
    ‘There’s one.’
    ‘Really? How close?’
    ‘Close.’
  • ‘You would be sitting in the corner slitting your wrists.’
  • ‘Nice to be here’
    ‘Why is that?’
    ‘Irony.’
  • ‘The dirty inmates. That’s when they clean the dirty.’
  • ‘There was a boy 12 years ago when we used to live.’
  • ‘Monsters don’t remember names. Girl scouts do.’
  • ‘Do you think Adam would have liked this?’
  • ‘We lost a child.’
    ‘And you have two left.’
  • ‘Our lives are screwed.’
    ‘I googled it. When you’re younger, you bounce back, kids are plastic.’
  • ‘Why’d you go with him?’
    ‘He had a dog.’
    ‘I don’t care if he had an elephant!’
  • Ben finally telling the brother ‘That was Adam, I am Ben.’
  • ‘For 10 years he was kept there like an animal. It’s not his fault he became one.’
  • ‘It’s a desire that you know you shouldn’t have but you want it anyway.’
    ‘That’s rape.’
    ‘Wanting it doesn’t make you a monster. Taking it does.’
  • ‘It’s some other kid taken even before Adam was taken.’
  • The ending where we learn Adam’s fate – ‘You took my life, I’m coming to get it back.’

I  already miss The Family and I really wanted to see everyone’s reaction to the real Adam’s fate.

Time for reviews. Some of the last ones this year.

Greys 12.23

Meredith finally hooked up with the kiwi boy! Unfortunately Ellen said not to get our hopes up. Which I did, the minute he was introduced. No one else would ever be this suitable to be McDreamy 2.0. This episode gave me the awkward cringy feeling that Shonda may try to get Meredith and Alex together which is awful cause they’re basically brother and sister. And she already did that with Izzie and George and we remember how well that turned out. Owen sold Derek’s trailer without asking Meredith. And now he’s marrying Amelia one episode after they got engaged. In the meantime, Jo refused to marry Alex, and I am honestly not even bothering to guess why. I never liked Jo. Meredith told Amelia to stop being so confident and cocky and copying Derek, and I don’t even think that was unnecessary. After 12 years we finally got to see the exact way from the ORs to the gallery and it was satisfying after I lost the sense of what the hospital looks like after they introduced the enormous set of stairs a few episodes back.

Now you even have his confidence. Get your own life.
You’re hot, you’re smart, you’re funny.
You’re gonna be my best man.
Then hell, I say go for it.

8.5/10

The Good Wife 7.19

A funny episode. I have a feeling we’ll miss this show next year. Mondays will feel a lot empty without The Good Wife.

You will not embarrass my husband.
Your honor.
Your worship.
What?
Your worship.
Could you live in Canada?
We request asylum.
3 years.
Oh my god.

6/10

The Good Wife 7.21

Why did they destroy the whole floor at the very end of the show? Was that really necessary? Diane ruined her relationship with Kurt right before Alicia buried it completely. For a one-to-last episode it was extremely disappointing, but so was the series finale.

No I mean construction.
What construction?
They had the wrong floor.
We should expand to the 29th floor.
Kurt, I’m sorry.

4.5/10

Faking It 3.06

Why is everyone so sex crazed in this high school?

Stop fucking my mom.
Are you saying you would do her under different circumstances?
Hello boyfriend, you just got back from the gym?

3/10

The Family 1.08

Finally a great episode. So the girl who was sleeping with her brother on Private Practice is just as much of a psycho as her boyfriend?

We’ll check if there’s any sex offenders in the area.
There’s one.
Really?
How close?
Close.
You need a friendly neighborhood pedophile.
You would be sitting in the corner slitting your wrists.
Mom, why?
You’re my son.

10/10

The Family 1.10

How old are you?
19.
Nice to be here.
Why is that?
Irony.
The dirty inmates.
That’s when they clean the dirty.
What’s in the bag?
The rest of my life.
You’re gonna tell everyone that I id this.
He would have to admit that he had two kids down there.
There was a boy 12 years ago when we used to live.
Monsters don’t remember names. Girl scouts do.
Do you think Adam would have liked this?
We lost a child.
And you have two left.
I hang out with sexual predators and we meet on Monday evenings and swap stories and play softball.
Our lives are screwed.
I googled it. When you’re younger, you bounce back, kids are plastic.

10/10

The Family 1.12

This is exactly why you don’t watch shows at work, I missed the most important thing! And then read about it online! Spoilers ahead, do not continue if you don’t want to know how the whole series ends. I missed the part when the pedophile’s wife heard someone kicking in the shed and her finding Adam is still alive and getting him out of there! I thought they already got to Canada and she was shocked to see a shed next to the house, as she knew him kidnapping a boy would happen again. So I continue watching while working and then suddenly the pedophile lays shot in the woods, uhm what? And then at the very end Adam tells Ben he’s coming home. I missed the whole pedophile’s girlfriend/Adam alliance. The real Adam was in the shed the whole time. I am pissed. I need to watch the ending again.

I don’t care if he had an elephant.
That was Adam, I am Ben.
For 10 years he was ket there like an animal. It’s not his fault he became one.
It’s a desire that you know you shouldn’t have but you want it anyway.
That’s rape.
Wanting it doesn’t make you a monster. Taking it does.
It’s some other kid taken even before Adam was taken.
You took my life, I’m coming to get it back.

10/10

The Simpsons 27.20

Homer gave Lisa Annabelle the doll as a present. Witty and fun as the Simpsons go to France.

Chubby dude in a tiny car.
Stop speaking French.

4.5/10

The Simpsons 27.21

You forget most of that’s hair.
Barbara Streisand once forgot the words to a song and didn’t perform for 3 decades.
I’m kidding The Simpsons will never end.

2/10

The Catch 1.07

So Penny from Lost (‘Not Penny’s boat’) is now Alice’s therapist, that can’t end well. Still not into this show and couldn’t be more shocked that it got renewed.

Black dot means I need help but It’s dangerous to ask.
Tell her everything or you’re wasting your time.

I have decided to post today, as I don’t normally work on Mondays, but I will tomorrow, and then I won’t be able to post on Tuesday, and Wednesday just seems too far away, and I’ll be doing season reviews by then. How did you all like The Good Wife’s finale? What about Grandfathered?

The Middle 7.21

I have never seen a show or a film showing us the process of dorm lottery, and as I have never lived in a dorm, it felt not only exciting but informative. Meanwhile Frankie fought with an oblivious new neighbor who just happened to have extremely loud little kids. True story time, let me tell you how annoying some neighbor’s kids are. I went home for two weeks this summer and half the time, including when I was packing and leaving, my neighbor’s 18 year old daughter was blasting music to the point I could hear every word while walls shook. Imagine if I was in my senior year studying for the finals. Yeah. One time I was happy I was a little older. This episode I started liking Sue’s roommate, Lexie. Also the idea of Sue being friends and roommates with Lexie for the next 3 years is very soothing. If you found your crowd on your first year and stuck with them than you’re lucky!

I want a full size cookie.
I want a full size vodka.
Those stupid neighbor kids.
Our kids? They were inside on video games all day. We were good parents.
That old bat was all up in everybody’s business.
My grandma shuffles and she loves life.
I bet she told you to return the pan. What a pain.
I did what every adult would do, I snack out at 5 in the morning.
A lot of TV is actually good.
If they don’t speak Nickelodeon, they’re in trouble!
Yummy children!
That our flat screen would go great on this wall!
This is the post hangover, pre-drunk rush.
Are you all sleepy from your chronic fatigue?

8.5/10

The Middle 7.23

Even when they’re average, they’re still better than most comedy shows nowadays. There’s not many couples are ship more than Brick and Cindy.

Nothing better than kids coming home from college…Get this crap out of my doorway!
Sweet, dear, innocent Brick.
She’s in a ditch!
Mom’s really cute, someone would totally wanna kill her.
I can’t believe we found each other.
I love you.
I love you two.

6.5/10

Nashville 4.17

Oh, I’ll miss you and your wonderful songs I used to download every week.

Viewers need to call their local radio stations and request Will’s song.
You were really nice, you welcomed me in Nashville.
Second time I met you, I knew you’d have changed my life.

9/10

The Good Wife 7.20

Funniest episode this season, mainly because of Alicia’s mom and brother. Zach want to go to France to write his memoir, even though he’s 20. Those damn Florricks, always thinking they’re better than everyone. Clarissa will go to law school and Jackie tells Alicia they’re exactly same.

I’ve been thinking about writing.
What are you gonna write?
A memoir.
Drinking, I see?
So why law school?
It was gonna be our O.J.
And you still have a job?
Tell me why I should be a lawyer in three words or less.
You’re smart.
It’s his mistake. Let him make it.

10/10

Grandfathered 1.20

A year has passed since the pilot? Why the time jump? They should have saved this episode for the finale, well the happy parts.

It’s the woman Olivia Pope was based on.
That’s Kerry Washington’s character on Scandal.

6/10

Grandfathered 1.22

It ended, and badly too. Last scene of the show was Jimmy getting stood up by Sarah. They so didn’t expect it to end. Nonetheless, thank you Grandfathered, for keeping me company this year.

We’re grandparents.
1989. Very Taylor Swift.
You always return to classics.
Kept taking me to the airport.
She’s the one. She’s always been the one.
She’s the one I’m supposed to be with.

5/10

The Family 1.09

A solid show, sad to see it go. The pedophile pregnant wife may be almost as sicko as he is.

I’ll spend the rest of my life wishing he was the one who got sick down there.

8/10

When Calls The Heart 3.06

I doubt that I’ll ever be able to write anything good enough to be published.
I am tired of being tested.
Sometimes even the strongest people are so paralyzed by what happened that they’ll do anything to avoid taking the one risk that might change their lives.
Tell me you love those children as much as I do.

7.5/10

When Calls The Heart 3.07

To match my eyes? Something bloodshot?
That’s so dear of you to say.
Five kids?! But children are very noisy. And they come with diapers. Do you know what’s in those diapers.
Children?
The whole concept in general.
You have to pray about it?

5.5/10

Faking It 3.09

The show is ending and no one is surprised because of how truly bad it was this season.

We’re just a couple of friendly Aussies.
We’re just tourists from down under.
So you’re a lesbian now?
I’m sorry.
Don’t be, you saved me.

Castle was cancelled, at least they won’t have to kill Beckett off.

Nashville was cancelled too, after escaping death the last three years.

Grandfathered was cancelled.

The Family was cancelled after just one season! I know ratings were bad, but the show itself isn’t.

And The Catch was surprisingly renewed.

I’ve lost especially lot shows this year. It started with Downton Abbey, then The Good Wife, then it was announced Bones is ending next year, then Switched at Birth and now all these.

Reviews of this year’s seasons will be posted with my ratings the minute all the shows go on hiatus.

I’m picking out new shows to watch over summer. Sure I’m excited for Scream, but other than that there’s only Pretty Little Liars. Since you know, Orange is the New Black is a one day thing. I haven’t seen Grace and Frankie yet and I’m trying to figure out which shows to start this summer. I’m thinking Weeds, Awkward, The Goldbergs and catching up on Ray Donovan. I definitely want a few more as that’s the only way I can survive work. I tried watching Buffy, but I just wasn’t interested like the other 5 times I started watching it. Episode 2 and I was already unimpressed. I will probably watch something from Netflix, Rake, Miss Fishers Mysteries and we’ll see what else. I wanted to give Everwood a try but it was just as boring as Summerland. I will probably catch up on 90210, I stopped watching after season 3. I’m afraid I won’t find a new show and I’ll be stuck rewatching the 75 shows I’ve followed over the years.

Speaking of shows I’m not watching, I watched that episode of CSI:Cyber that had Spencer Locke in it and it was quite good. Spencer is the only ex-teen actress who’s career I’ve been following since Resident Evil 3 circa 2007, from project to project (she was amazing in Landmine Goes Click, a great rape-revenge horror). I gave the episode 8.5/10, but it did not convince me to start watching the show, it was just cancelled too.

Castle 8.18

I am starting with Castle this week, because as you saw above, it has been cancelled. This episode was actually fun. Some of them just are, as this is more of a comedy show than a crime series. It focuses around Aladin and Castle is all over Jin’s lamp. How did they even do research for this episode?

And had her beheaded so no other man can have her.
Story teller inside me.
He was a tomb rider.
He found Aladin’s lamp!
Don’t say that he wished for it.
I need to start making a wish list.
Can you make sure she gets the dibs on first rub?
Whatever clearly legal endevour you’re engaging in.
I really wish…
You did have the time to creep over to the lamp to rub the lamp, and wish upon the lamp.
Make belief time with Castle.
Your reality challenged husband.

10/10

Greys 12.21

Since when are there so many stairs? And since when is the hospital painted red? I really thought it was the court’s building, not the hospital! Shonda’s shows are always sex crazed, last episode was about Stephanie and her naughty sex life with the patient and this week everyone saw Owen’s package. I really hope Bailey doesn’t divorce Ben. Arizona is my favorite character since Meredith took Callie’s side.

Tucker had a fit.
Very PG, nothing like we saw this morning.
Did you hear about the fake leg? I’m probably not the best runner in a crisis.

8.5/10

Bates Motel 4.07

With my stepfather.
Have you been sleeping with him!?
Don’t embarrass yourself by lying to me.
If I’m near the person who makes me feel comfortable and whole and safe.
We’re gonna start with 3 sessions per week.
Alex please, please, please.
You brought me a big beautiful TV and I screwed it up.
Welcome home.
Thank you, mother.

7.5/10

Nashville 4.18

We’re saying goodbye to Nashville and this is what they show us? I know they booked Elton John for episode 4.20, but the story lines are just awful this season. Maddie is a brat, I can’t believe she got emancipated. Also little Daphne just lost a recording contract thanks to Maddie. I bet Rayna will make her wait till she’s 18 to sign her independently.

My song is on the radio! My song is on the damn radio!
Glen, tweet whatever you want from my account.
It only works cause we’re the exes.
And then you finally heard it and it doesn’t matter anymore?

5.5/10

The Middle 7.22

The Middle has 24 episodes this season? I’m impressed. It’s the most underrated comedy show out there, and it’s sad that so little people watch it. Season 7 was a challenge, since both Axl and Sue are out of high school, and let’s be honest there’s only so many things you can come up with to do in college. High school years were always fun, especially for Sue. But then when you think about it, Sue makes even college cool. I mean Axl’s story lines are always so boring, just what college years are for people. There’s always something happening with Sue, even though I feel like there could be even more.

Who even eats lettuce. A rabbit?
Wait we used to have a rabbit. Where’d that rabbit go?
I’m paying it forward, backward and sideway.
She said she forgot to set the DVR to record Castle.
Such a clever show.
If there’s anyone who belolngs is a country themed amusment park it’s you.
And you’ll be there with Brad.
How the hell am I failing my psych class?
You see the list? Scroll down till you get to Castle.

7.5/10

The Family 1.11

Only the ‘understanding a pedophile and a sex crime victim parts are good. No one cares about the election. In this episode the extremely annoying and slutty reporter found Ben’s biological mother, while Claire found out it was Ben who killed Adam.

None of this makes me a kidnapper, at most it makes me a country song.
Just enough to build your trust, so it was confusing when he crossed the line.
We both know how this is gonna end for me. It’s not in a hug.
Sex offenders registry. It’s a national database. You gotta do it yearly.
They notify your employer.
Because I watched your son too.
I know why you’ve been weird or depressed or whatever.
How do you know. That I’m gay?
I think I just came out to you.
Ben looked at the man who took my son and he let him go.
He didn’yt kill Adam. Ben did.
I’m Adam.
I’m Hank.
What was his name? Your little boy?
Ben.

10/10

Grandfathered 1.21

The show started off nicely, and now it’s a mess. I am only happy that Paget and John’s characters are getting together! And I Josh Peck is hilarious, check him out on Vine.

Oh my God, he looks like Glen Close.
He would have liked my family.
One of the guests is wearing a Tshirt that says Gremlins 2 now on VHS.

2.5/10

When Calls the Heart 3.05

I still haven’t seen the season finale and I only finished watching 3.07 this week. This just shows how uneventful this show is.

I always thought it would be easy to be a writer.
It’s much easier to think of yourself as a writer than it is to sit down and write.
The whole world will be my stage.
Every heroine needs an annoying neighbor.
You do know that moving pictures are silent?

4/10

Scandal 5.18

I just wrote about Landmine Goes Click being a good example of rape and revenge genre. In this episode we found out Jake’s father used to molest his sister, so Jake used Ronan’s training to avenge his sister.

What kind of a bout allows his sister to be raped?

3.5/10

Scandal 5.19

What happened to this show this season? I want the election already, and I want Mellie to win.

You can come work for me, little Abby.

4.5/10

The Simpsons 27.19

What a fun episode.

In America it’s pronpunced ‘job’.
Collect at every age.
As seen in this epiosde.
The most glorious sign. ‘Toilet’.
10 000 lace to see before you’re 10.
I’d never think there’s be something I’d want to stare longer than that car wereck on the way here
You’re 180?
That’s what my blood pressure says.
I can’t stand rich people.
Billioners retreat.
Let’s think about it quietly.
Jeez Flanders. You find God in everything.
Big Maggie.

10/10

The Catch 1.01

It’s a pretty boring show, and the only reason I’m still watching is who they cast as the leads. Mireille Enos and Peter Krause. My mom always says Lauren Graham’s boyfriend is so handsome, my dad says that’s Adam and I am happy to see Linden back on my screen.

He never looks at the camera.
He doesn’t ask for anything, so you give him everything.

5.5/10

The Catch 1.02

She paints over the edges.
A 75 year old man. He died the day we met.

3/10

The Catch 1.03

And your credit cards seem suspiciosly new.
I won’t come looking for you becuase I already found you.

7/10

The Catch 1.04

Getting worse with each episode.

It was real and I love you.

6/10

The Catch 1.05

Ben, my name is Ben. Benjamin Jones.

5.5/10

The Catch 1.06

2.5/10

Faking It 3.07

So awful I’m glad it’s only 20 minutes long.

Pretty sure go fuck yourself means we’re done talking.

0.5/10

Faking It 3.08

Why am I still watching this awful show? I keep complaining about it every week and yet I still watch it.

Just pick bisexual so we can have Christmas.

Even though I love Amy Brenneman and Brad Siberling (hello, Moonlight Mile!) I am not starting Heartbeat. The pilot felt like Grey’s wannabe and we remember how Melissa George’s character got kicked out of the program. It’s Sunday, my notebook is full of notes and reviews, so here we go.

Some great news to start off, Melissa McCarthy has joined Gilmore Girls revival! Sookie’s back!

Shameless 6.08

Missing Shameless already. I though the guy was a pedophile, but pregnant woman fetish is gross too. I’m glad Debbie is no longer with that psycho family. The foot massage was too much, shameless, but very unnecessary.

I need a scary looking black man.
Wish I’d gotten into this business a long time ago.
You were singing that gay song.
Indeed I was.
Frank Gallagher 35 years ago!
The fuck I am, Grannie Quinnie.
Frank Jr.
Why is a man in Indiana shitting his pants.

10/10

Shameless 6.09

I was so happy when I saw Mandy! But she’s an escort now and killed a man. Lip being shocked about her driving a jeep and Ian not telling him where Mandy works, so he can be proud of her was absolutely incredible, and one of my favorite scenes this season. What’s with the commune living though?

Are you going to support Debbie as she unschools her way through life?
I met him through my service, escort.
Maybe something that doesn’t involve feces.
My nephew watches it on youtube.
You know that just because we were born here doesn’t mean that we end up here.

The Middle 7.18

Frankie saying her parenting skills are better then Nancy’s was amazing! And when Mike realized Sue’s no longer a child, too! I want some caramel popcorn balls too! Sue’s 19teen.

He’s really good at what he does.

How To Get Away With Murder 2.14

It took me a while to watch the finale April 9th to be exact, and it was disappointing just like the whole season.

Eve’s’Did he hurt you?’ were the exact words Alex used 3 weeks later when he got 911 call from Maggie about Meredith on Greys.

Originally Mexico, I lived in Florida before law school.
We’re all bad people, that’s all we have in common.
What is this, a homeless shelter?
And then play us like little puppets.

Younger 2.09

Kelsey, I do get when an avocado post gets more likes than something more valuable, because for a long time, that was me. Also, in this episode a guy is *ing a sheep, so… um wtf?

More young creatives.
My avocado post got more likes.
She’s having an argument with an Uber driver about the ring.
It looks like I’m engaged to myself.

I think he shares an assistant with a bunch of other guys. (I bet he does)
I’m not some emo teen who just lost their virginity.
Either you tell her or I will.

5/10

Younger 2.11

I hated Chad, I’m glad he’s gone, but they haven’t pulled such tragic deaths on Sex and the City, so wtf?

I’m tired of skinny jeans, but you just take a deep breath and hang in there.
Liza Miller is your mom?
Oh please tell me you’re not her new boyfriend.
Ice T
You can tell everyone about me, I don’t care. She deserves to know who she’ll be spending the rest of her life with.

The Simpsons 27.17

‘Excellent’ episode.

Excellent.

Thirteen 1.01

What a great show! It makes living in the UK bearable. Everyone who watches SVU will love it! But why on Earth did they name the male lead Elliot. Come on, try not to look like SVU.

There’s never been am escaped captive in the UK.
There’s a girl. It could be Ivy.
Bastard bleached the place.
The DNA’s come back as Ivy’s.
A hand on my neck pulled me back into a van.
Everything has changed but us.

The Family 1.02

I was enjoying this show until it turned out it’s not Adam.

They say once you’ve left home, you can never go back.
That’s for Adam, he never got sweets down there.
I was wearing these when he took me.
I need to touch the walls.
I need back up. I found a metal door. It’s the Adam Warren investigation.
The suspect is here and he’s burning the evidence.
I’m not the same person I was

Yeah, but you have a good excuse.
So do you.

The Family 1.03

The idea of chipping sex offenders is game changing!

Once every 7 sleeps.
I regret all those years complaining about Wifi being slow.They should be chipped.
You can’t look at me, I’m your sister.

4/10

The Family 1.04

Second child went missing.
Is that him? Is that the men who took you?
He lost Adam so he found himself a new one.
Do you think he’ll do it though? Take another one?
The always do.

Pretty Little Liars 6.18

This half season is excruciating. I honestly have 5 episodes to watch and no desire to sdo so. I have also accidentally ruined the spring ending for myself – thanks TV Guide, so now I’m even less excited about watching them. I will try to watch them on Netflix when I’m off tomorrow.

Did they abort the baby? Or was it just a false alarm, I don’t remember at this point. What is wrong with being a cop? It’s a perfectly respectable job. I know that Toby did some one month long Mickey Mouse course, that would never pass as a cop course, but still, he’s a cop. Who needs college is they want to be a cop? Aria getting burned was just too predictable and fake. Makes me realize what everyone has been saying for the last two years at least, that this show has been on too long. I don’t know why I gave this episode so many points. I must have been tired.

There’s probably one of your beanies still in there.
Cause being with a cop is not good enough?

Hi guys, welcome back after Easter. My new 8 month old laptop died, which means I will have so much more time to post this week, as I won’t be busy watching films. Here are some reviews.

Greys 12.12

I am so happy they didnt kill Mer’s first patient. I was scared theoughout the whole episode that that was gonna happen. Her death would ruin the pilot we love so much. It would mess with the past and make us feel like there is no point in leaving since something we believed for 11 years now would have changed. There is no messing with the past. It’s our holy ground and I’m hlad Shonda gets it.

Someone said that. Wait that was me.
Guys, this room is full of dead people, show some respect.
She was my first patient.
They still let you be a doctor here?
She was a trainwreck.
So he thinks you should have been on that helicopter.
I work in peds. I figured it out.
You’re all grown up now.
So are you.
What happened to the other Dr Shepherd?
That’s a long story.

10/10

The Family 1.01

A new show from one of Shonda Rhimes’s writers about a boy who was kidnapped 10 years ago and his sudden reapearance.

Who are you?
I’m him.
They found that boy who was murdered 10 years ago.
The man is a sex offender.
Hi dad.
Hi, chief.
The man who was laying on top of me.
Why didnt you just run?
I did run. The first chance I got.
When was that?
Yesterday.
Maybe it was the decade of rape and torture.
Red dragon, he was breathing fire, right at me.
And all the other Adams who are still out there.
He doesn’t exist.

10/10

SVU 17.17

After 17 years at SVU Olivia got kicked out. What are you guys thinking of Olivia and Tucker?

There is no way that girl is 18.
Underage girls are being raped and trafficked.
They’re not cops, they’re rapists.
They forced me into a room and took turns raping me.
He’s raping 16 year olds while supposedly undercover.
So you don’t mention that you two are sleeping together.
He had everyone at SVU in kuffs.
I’m out. That is it. You’re dismissed.

10/10

The Middle 7.17

I still don’t understand why everyone has their wisdom teeth removed.

Think of it like Downton Abbey and I’m one of the basement people.
We fight this the way we fought that healthy snack thing.
This is the year of Sue 2.0.
You’re a Heck. Disapointment is your birth right.
Frab some napkins, we’re out of toilet paper.
Sue, are you crying?
Axl gave me a fork.
Sometimes you think you get an Elvis, but end up with an eagle. And thats okay. Eagles are great too.

5/10

Shameless 6.10

Weakest episode especially for a birth episode. Who else cried when they heard Debbie has named her daughter Frances?

Law, motherfucker.
I think I wanna be a cop.
And then I get a for asking me if I ever have been hospitalized.
Frances after her grandfather.
Frank?!

When Calls the Heart 3.01

As long as we’re no longer in Hamilton, I’m good.

I’m your new partner.

4/10

How to Get Away With Murder 2.13

Annalise’s gay ex-lover is the only reason the show is still watchable.

There’s not a day that I don’t lie to my clients.
Clients are some of the stupidest people you’ll meet.
Please tell me you just got fat.
Stop blaming me for your loneliness.
Call 911. There’s someone in Wes’s apartment.

8/10

Younger 2.12

What’s with a super weak finale?

You seem more fake now than when you were acting like you’re 26.

3/10

Grandfathered 1.19

This show certainly does not want to go out with a bang.

Cough syrup with codaine.
Replace it with pictures of handsome guys.
Movie selection process.
What’s the one thing none of them have?
A college degree.
