Fall Finale Update: Supergirl

I have to be totally and completely honest. That fall finale was pretty meh. In fact, it didn't feel like a finale at all. I think it was because they promised an epic 4 night crossover and the last 30 seconds was the only crossover bit we got. (And they didn't really need to show that because they re-showed it on The Flash.) Also, the only bit of suspense they gave us was that bit with Mon-El at the end, and I don't really care about that. Mon-El has always seemed a little sketchy to me and this gives me even more of a reason not to trust him. I was expecting more of a cliffhanger so I could have a reason to come back. Right now the only thing keeping me is the promise of this Flash musical crossover. If that wasn't coming I would have no problem DVRing this show.

Now on to this half of the season. The only storyline that kept me watching was Alex's; everything else upset me. First, why did they make M'gann a white martian!? I was so excited about Miss Martian, and J'onn having someone to connect him back to his planet and maybe her joining the team, but no. They had to make her his worse enemy, and then they had her infect J'onn and turn him into a white martian. But that didn't last long at all, so it all just seemed like on big waste. Like, what was the point of doing all that if he was just going to get cured in 30 seconds?!
Second, why can't they let James be great? He falls in love with Kara and they get together only for that to be taken away in the premiere. Then he becomes the head of CatCo but he can't even lead his first meeting and when he finally takes control, we don't get to see him in that roll. Then they make him The Guardian but not without Winn telling him multiple times that he can't be a hero because he doesn't have powers. Even when he becomes The Guardian Winn can't stop telling him about how he can't do it. And we barely saw him as The Guardian. I mean they immediately framed him as a killer so he had to get over that before he could do anything more. And if he did do more we didn't see it. Like, why couldn't he come to LCorp and help in the finale? It definitely feels like he's getting sidelined this year. I doesn't feel like he's on team Supergirl right now and that needs to change.
Then we have Mon-El who I don't completely trust. It seems like they brought him in as a love interest for Kara, even though she said she needed time to figure out life as Kara. Was all that a lie so they could break her up with Jimmy or what? I guess we don't really know yet because it seems like Kara doesn't like Mon-El like that. But they left it so vague that it could go either way.

All I know is, the second half needs to pick up if they want to keep me tuning in each week. They haven't done enough to keep my attention yet. I really want to have a reason to watch this show each week but it's not looking good. I need the second half to have more James. I need more of a story with Papa Danvers and I need to know if he's okay or not. I need Cadmus to be a bigger big bad, especially now that Hank is Cyborg Superman and sporting the same face as J'onn. Also, will Superman come back when he finds out there's a cyborg version of himself out there? Lastly, get James back on team Supergirl. Let him tell everyone that he's The Guardian so he can help out more.
What are your thoughts so far?

Fall Finale Update: How to Get Away with Murder

The entire first half of the season we've been trying to figure out who was under that sheet and now we know. Wes is dead. And who killed him a mysery for the second half. I was more shocked then anything when I found this out. I really didn't think it was him. Like, he was crossed off my list long before the episode aired. This was mainly because they showed him at the police station and I thought that meant he was fine. I thought that it was Frank from the beginning. And after seeing how things were playing out, I though Frank would go through with killing himself and that they would decide to burn the house down instead of moving his body. (And there were so many awful things that happened in that house they were better off just burning the whole thing to the ground.) Now, obviously, there's a lot more that went on that we haven't seen yet. Plus, the big twist at the end was that Wes was dead before the fire. I have predicitions that I'll get to later.
The episode was a shocker and it answered one question while leaving us with many more, in true HTGAWM fashion. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time and there were a lot of WHAT's and OMG's said throughout.

Now I didn't have much of a problem with the first half of the season. I know a lot of people didn't like the Laurel/Wes and Asher/Michaela relationships, but (for some reason) I did. I also liked the growing relationship between Annalie and president Hargrove. The one person I didn't like was the ADA. I feel like her whole investigation is fueled by her jealousy towards Annalise. Like, she can't be her or beat her, no matter how hard she tries, so she's going to try to ruin her life. That really irked me.

Now for my predictions for the second half. I think it's very possible that the person who killed Wes and the person responsible for blowing up Annalise's house are two different people. I think Frank is definitely involved in all of it, though. He could have been so pissed at Annalise for the way she treated him that he killed the one person who she fought so hard to keep safe and then left him in that house like a gift for Annalise to find. And maybe he chickened out and blew up the house so she would never know. Or maybe he just knew that all the Keating 5 would be at the house, and since they hate him so much, he blew it up to kill all of them. Or maybe the guy Wes framed for killing his father killed Wes and left him at the house like "I know it was you who was behind this so this is what you get."
What theories do you have?

Fall Finale Update: Grey's Anatomy

I will start off by saying that I thought the fall finale was a good episode. Everything that happened was intense and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. The storyline with the apartment building manager was interesting, and so was everything that was going on with Alex, and Jo (finally) telling him the truth. It was so frustrating watching Alex decide to give up and take the plea deal, but I knew that they would end it right before he made his final decision. I do wish they showed us what he did because I just want to know. This has been going on for too long and it's time for them to go forward with a trial or not.

Now on to the first half of the season. I'm a little upset by it. I'm upset because they said they were focusing on the originals but everything that happened has been bad. Now we have Webber basically being demoted and Alex on the verge of losing his job forever. I wish there was some good thrown in there with the bad to balance it out.
Also, I don't think they spent enough time on everyone else. They spent a lot of time on everything surrounding Alex's trial, and Amelia and Owen's situation. And their situation was just a reincarnation of what happened with Owen and Cristina. (And why are they recycling that storyline?) I want to know what's happening with Jackson and April. Did she move out yet? Is she still dating? Is he dating? And what about the whole Mer, Maggie and Riggs situation? Is that over with or what? Plus, they let Leah come back, touched on it for an episode and then we barely saw her. I guess my hope is that they spend more time on the rest of the Grey Sloane crew when they come back.

I want that, and I also want to know more about Jo's past. Like, will her husband come back? And can she finally get a divorce? I also want this trial with Alex to be over. I don't want him to go to jail. My hope, and this will probably never happen but, I want Deluca to drop the charges. We all know that Alex did what he did because he was trying to protect Jo. He didn't know what was actually happening and they didn't know what he thought was happening. I know it sucks and Deluca could've lost his ability to be a doctor, but is he willing to take that away from someone else? I'm also interested to see what will come of this Webber situation. Bailey definitely didn't want to do it, but Catherine pushed her to. I can't wait to see how the rest of the board reacts. From Jackson's reaction, it looks like they have no clue what's really going on and I don't think they'll like Catherine and Bailey deciding to do this without talking with them first. And will Webber find out that Catherine is the one behind it all? How will he react to that? Well, we shall see January 19th.
What did you guys thing of the episode and the season so far?
