At first I was puzzled at the level of costume devotion since they didn’t seem to be planning much but maybe handing out candy, but this is Cheryl, Queen of Extra so it actually made a kind of sense. Read more

“No, bitch, it’s your sister!” was the line of the episode if not the season. Perfect delivery- I laughed out loud when she said it. Read more

I do love how no-nonsense Toni is. Not just pressing Cheryl to rebury her brother, but breaking out the shovels and getting it done, which I did not expect. Read more

I’m calling it now, “no, bitch, it’s your sister” is the line reading of the season. Reinhart is the Patron Saint of Reactions. Though Vanessa Morgan is killing it right now, none of Cheryl’s nonsense would work at all without the heavy lifting of Toni’s arched brow. Read more

My god Thea is the best. Read more

For someone who was clearly done with the show about three seasons before she was written off, Willa Holland sure didn’t phone it in tonight. Her and Stephen Amell have always had great sibling chemistry, which made the Oliver/Thea brother-sister dynamic my favorite relationship on the show. Both of them did some of… Read more

I had no idea how much I missed Thea being done with everyone’s shit, but holy shit did I miss Thea being done with everyone’s shit. She was my personal TAMVP. Read more

This is why I love the CW. On any other network, I would have bailed on these shows, knowing they’d be cancelled with those ratings. But on the CW, Nancy Drew has the chance to grow and develop into the saucy Veronica Mars imitator that it clearly longs to be! And Batwoman can also keep batwomanin along. Read more

I will never forgive this show for teasing the idea of Edgar taking off in a rocket and not following through. We were so close to having a live-action Leader of the Movementarians. Read more

I was about to respond to this comment by saying that I liked Hush, but then I thought about it and I realized I only like the mummy detective look.

Were it not for dressing like a mummy detective

Kate and Nyssa I’m guessing would have some heat to it Read more

So we are definitely going to get a sequence of Alice doing something scary/ crazy set to Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit,” right? If so it could threaten to rival my previous favorite use of the song, on season 1 of Warehouse 13, when crazy Alice Liddell comes out of the cursed Looking Grass & terrorizes them Read more

Yeah, Hush is from the ground up a pretty lousy character. Read more

It’s hard to call it forgettable when it’s just come out so I just find it presumptive and again, unnecessary. Particularly when I personally think it was one of the better animated features of the year. Read more
