Summer Premieres 2017: Orphan Black
The premiere was crazy! When we left our clones they were in peril. When we came back to them they were in peril. And now, they are still in peril. Cosima is off on this cult-like island, Sarah has been tranquilized by Rachel, Alison got kidnapped, and Helena literally has a stick in her babies! But, it's not just the clones who are in peril! Art has this new, super shady partner, and Mrs. S and Kira are MIA! Everyone is still backed into a corner and I have no idea how they'll get out.
Look, I have no clue what to expect or what to predict for this final season. My hope is that we'll finally get some answers with Kira. We all know that she has these telekinetic type powers with the sestras. I just want to know why and how. And that kind of sucks because that might mean she'll be a lab rat and have a bunch of tests run on her. (Wouldn't it be crazy if Rachel finds out just how special Kira is and tries to clone her instead of herself?!) Also, I want Helena's babies to be okay and for the rest of the clones to have satisfying endings.
Do you guys have any predictions on the season or thoughts on the premiere?

2017 Summer Premiere: Still Star Crossed
It was a little difficult figuring out what to say about this show because it left me in such awe after the premiere. (Good thing I usually wait until after the second episode to write my review.)
This show is amazing! I haven't seen anything like this since Brandy and Whitney's Cinderella. Seeing diversity like this on my screen is magnificent! I don't even care if it doesn't make sense how these people could be related to each other. And the best part is seeing two beautiful, dark skin, Black women, sisters on screen who are smart, important, and loved. That means so much to me!
I also love how grand this show is. The costumes and the setting are epic. I'm also obsessed with the cinematography!
Now let's talk about these characters like they're real for a second.
I am totally okay with this Rosaline, Benvolio, Escalus love triangle. Well, except for the fact that Escalus seems to be turning into pure trash. But, I think that he is spending too much time trying to please everyone. His sister wants him to be this strong leader and show that strength. His dad wants him to do whatever he can to have peace in Verona. Rosaline just wants him to be with her. He has so many people in his ear that his thoughts and wants are being drowned out. Hopefully he'll realize this before it's too late.
Isabella definitely has some secret agenda going on. She's planning something and I can't wait to see what it is. Right now she and Escalus are giving me serious Azula and Zuko vibes.
Also, I can't to see what Lady Capulet does when she finds out the truth about Juliet's death. She'll probably kill the friar because those Capulet's are ruthless!
Are you guys watching? What do you think of the show?
