Winter Premieres 2017: The Fosters

Now this is going to be one crazy season! Every single one of these kids are in some drama.
Jesus is in the hospital with swelling in his brain. On top of that, the police are questioning him like he was the only one at fault in the situation. Mariana's been caught and she had to get check out while at the hospital. Jude is still getting high and this time he broke onto someone's boat and almost got caught. Callie could be going back to jail and Brandon is still a hot mess! These kids are going to give one of their parents a heart attack from all the stress.

Here are some of my predictions. I have no idea what's going to happen to Jesus. Hopefully he'll be okay. Callie is getting herself into one huge mess. She has no idea that she committed a felony, and the detective on the case she's investigating hates Steph, so he's not going to treat her fairly at all! He'll probably let her go only if she drops this case or just send her to jail.
I know Brandon broke up with Courtney but that last night of passion might come back to haunt him. I'm really hoping he didn't get that girl pregnant, but I wouldn't be surprised if they have a scare.
Jude could get himself sent to some juvenile rehab or therapy because he is out of control. And Mariana could have some kind of health scare, but we'll see. She might need some therapy, too.
Well, whatever happens it's going to be a lot of drama and I can't wait to see it!

Winter Premieres 2017: Switched at Birth

Switched at Birth is back for it's final season and it's off to an interesting start. They are starting off some serious and some great storylines.
The girls are back from China and trying to get back to normal but that won't be too easy. Daphne can't take any classes or live in the dorms. Bay is dating Travis but there's still some drama between her and Emmett. Regina's taking college classes, J&K are both working at the school, and Toby is off being a father. The biggest shocker of the episode was that Emmett overdosed!
I think this was a good premiere. They did a great job setting up where everyone will go this year and I can't wait to see how they wrap up the series

This season is definitely going to be wild ride. Daphne is going to have to figure out what she's going to do. She's going to have some free time on her hands since she can't take any pre-med classes. I wonder if she'll get a job? Or get back into cooking. She hasn't done that in a while. Maybe they'll bring back her food truck?! Part of her time is going to be taken up by dealing with the aftermath of that costume party she went to. I mean, most of the backlash will be put on Mingo, but she was with him and it doesn't look like she has any idea why what he did was offensive so she'll get some backlash, too. I'm not surprised that this show is taking on cultural appropriation because they've tackled issues like this before. I'm sure (well more like hoping) that they'll handle it well.
The show is also tackling mental illness with Emmett. I'm really glad they're doing this, mainly because this is a serious issue that needs to be portrayed properly in the media and I think this is the show to do it.
We didn't see any of Toby this episode so I am very curious to see what's going on with him. From the looks of the promo, things look serious. I'm also interested in what will become of Emmett and Bay. Like I've said in the past, they need to be together or not and they need to figure it out soon.

So what did you guys think of the episode?

Winter Premieres 2017: Scandal

Scandal is back and it's election night! Here's the basics of what happened. Mellie lost, but Vargas got shot. So Fitz has to do his outbound presidential duty of putting his support behind either Cyrus or Mellie to actually be president. Liv is on the war path to find out who shot Vargas and when she confronts her dad and he says he didn't do it, so her next target is Cyrus. But she's on a time limit to prove it. She fails and Fitz announces his support for Cyrus. But in that very moment, Liv uncovers some evidence that makes Cyrus look guilty. And that was the episode.
For the first time in a long time I thoroughly enjoyed an episode of Scandal. There wasn't anything that happened that made me roll my eyes in annoyance. I think it has to do with the fact that the whole episode was so focused on election night that there wasn't anytime for side stories.

I am curious to see where this season goes. The main storyline is figuring out who shot [Vargas] but they can't spend all their time doing that. I mean, sure, it's going to take some time. I expect it to take quite a few episodes, but it won't take forever. So, what will happen next? This show is so hard to predict and I wish I had something, but I don't. I'll just be watching along with you, trying to figure it all out.

So, what did you think of the episode.
