  • Days of Our Lives Weekly Recap 3-31

    Orpheus finally reveals himself to Marlena and makes it clear that he’s looking forward to getting rid of both her and John. Marlena realizes he’s the one responsible for their current predicament, trying to trap John. Just as Orpheus is about to shoot her, Marlena blocks the shot and smacks him with a suitcase. At the facility, Steve, along with Paul and Andrew, also confirms that Orpheus is behind it all. Andrew returns to check on Marlena, not wanting to jeopardize his position with the ISA. Marlena shows him Orpheus and insists she’s heading to the facility herself. Meanwhile, under Andrew’s watch, Orpheus slips away. Back at the facility, Marlena, Paul, and Steve hear a gunshot. At first, they fear it’s John — but he’s still alive. They find a clue, prompting Paul to head back to the hotel. There, Orpheus pulls a gun on Andrew, but Paul arrives just in time and shoots him. Marlena calls Brady to tell him that John is alive. Jada and Shawn run into each other. Shawn admits he’s been keeping his distance and congratulates her on being reinstated. Jada shares that she has a last-ditch plan with the EJ case and goes to see Belle, who is still struggling with her feelings for EJ. Jada asks Belle to wear a wire to trap him. Belle is hesitant but ultimately agrees. Meanwhile, Rafe is at the DiMera mansion setting up surveillance. When EJ arrives, Rafe covers by saying he was checking in on Johnny. EJ informs him Johnny isn’t there and dismisses him. JJ and Shawn have a meaningful conversation about Julie, Doug, and eventually about Jada. Shawn downplays his feelings, insisting they’re just friends, and worries about the fallout if Rafe finds out. Jada and Belle return — Belle agrees to wear the wire. After Belle and JJ leave, Jada and Shawn talk about Stephanie and JJ, and Jada decides it’s time Rafe knows the truth. Shawn steps out, and Jada confesses everything to Rafe — including sleeping with Shawn and being deceived by Arnold posing as him. Rafe is in utter shock, devastated that she didn’t question whether it was really him. Belle meets EJ, who is pleased to see her at first, but soon becomes suspicious. He asks if she’s wearing a wire. The plan fails — EJ figures it out. Kristen visits Brady, and they have a surprisingly warm conversation about where they stand. Later, she confronts EJ, who explodes and demands she leave him alone. Kristen leaves and pulls out a gun. Ava reads the exposé on EJ. Johnny, waiting in Horton Town Square for Chanel, is convinced by her to get away for a while, but he insists on seeing his grandfather first. He needs to talk after learning his father sexually assaulted his mother. At the pub, he opens up to Roman, who defends Sami and hopes Johnny will understand her choices one day. Ava rushes out, barely acknowledging anyone. Meanwhile, Chanel visits EJ and confronts him with the emotional wreckage his actions have caused Johnny. Belle and Brady talk about EJ and her unresolved feelings. JJ and Shawn discuss Jada’s confession to Rafe. JJ says he’ll ask Gabi about it. Rafe later tells Gabi about Jada and Shawn. Gabi tries to help him understand how the situation happened, but Rafe is still angry and hurt, especially that Jada didn’t realize it wasn’t really him. Jada meets with Paulina to discuss her current situation and how EJ is ultimately responsible. JJ stops by the Hernandez house, but no one is home. EJ, alone at the DiMera mansion, speaks to Stefano’s portrait about how everyone hates him — listing off those who can’t stand him. At the same time, Johnny is seen taking a gun from the Brady Pub. Chanel grows increasingly worried. EJ is later shot. As he asks, “Why are you here?” the screen fades. Chad finds him bleeding and pleads with him to hold on. Kayla and Cat share a moment of conversation. At the hospital, EJ’s condition is touch-and-go. Chad is supported by Cat. Ava decides to leave Salem and informs Kate and Roman that she’s moving to Hong Kong with Tripp and Wendy. She thanks them for their kindness. After she departs, she throws away a gun. Meanwhile, Roman finds the gun missing at the pub and places it back in the safe. Chanel finally reunites with Johnny, who is cold and distant. When they hear about EJ’s condition, Johnny simply says EJ got what he deserved and leaves the room, leaving Chanel and Paulina stunned. Back at the DiMera mansion, JJ and the police investigate the crime scene. Kristen comes downstairs, claiming she didn’t hear the shot. JJ questions her. Shawn finds Jada drinking. She confides in him, feeling lost and alone. He invites her to stay with him and promises to take care of her. Gabi runs into Leo, who taunts her over not being upset about EJ. He threatens to quote her, but she reminds him it’s off the record — and that he’s lucky to be staying in her home. Rafe has a heart-to-heart with Javi, who tries to help him understand Jada and the impossible position she was in. As Chad sits by EJ’s side in the hospital, EJ suddenly takes a turn for the worse.

  • Bold and the Beautiful Weekly Recap 3-31

    Steffy and Finn are feeling a little handsy at the Cliff House as they continue to profess their love for one another. They acknowledge that Luna could have destroyed them, yet they remain together. Still, Steffy makes it clear that she wants justice for what Luna did to her. She presses Finn for his thoughts, but he admits he’s still processing everything. Steffy can’t believe that Sheila and Luna — his biological mother and daughter — nearly took her life. Finn vows to protect her and their family. Steffy insists he cannot forgive or accept Luna into their lives. Finn agrees. While Steffy knows he may feel a biological connection, she reminds him Luna is dangerous — unstable — and they cannot afford to let her in. Finn accepts this truth, and just as they share a passionate kiss, they’re interrupted by Taylor. The conversation shifts back to Luna being released from prison, with Bill’s assistance. Finn reflects on the trauma he’s endured at the hands of both Sheila and Luna. They begin to wonder: who will be their next target? Elsewhere, Deacon tells Sheila she’ll have to make a choice — Luna or him. He admits that if it had been anyone else, he might have come to terms with it. But Luna killed his friends, and for that, he cannot forgive her. Sheila pretends to agree but quickly contacts Luna in secret. Meanwhile, Luna continues her pursuit of Will, but he firmly shuts her down, reminding her of her crimes. After he leaves, Luna vows she won’t give up on him. She then visits Sheila, who comforts her, acknowledging that Deacon didn’t react the way she had hoped — but promises that they still have time to rebuild their bond. Sheila assures Luna she’ll take care of her. During their conversation, Luna confesses her growing obsession with Will. At Forrester, Electra confides in Ivy that Will wants to take their relationship to the next level. Electra admits she loves him but isn’t ready — and he’ll have to accept that. Later, Will shows up at the office and tells her about Luna’s advances. Electra is stunned and immediately goes to confront Luna. Sheila steps aside to let them hash it out. The confrontation escalates. The women exchange sharp words, and Electra even pushes Luna — warning her never to try anything again. She firmly tells Luna to stay away from Will and leave. Luna just smirks. Later, Luna shows up at Deacon’s apartment, where Electra makes it very clear: stay away from Will. As Luna watches Electra leave, Will looks at a photo of Electra on his phone, clearly torn, reflecting on his recent interaction with Luna. At Brooke’s home, Hope is still wallowing over no longer being at Forrester Creations. She vents to Brooke, expressing frustration over their strained relationship and everything she’s lost. Brooke believes time will help them heal. Hope, feeling isolated and unheard, insists she’s the only one suffering and storms out. Katie soon arrives, and Brooke fills her in. Brooke believes Hope won’t be able to move forward until she accepts her own faults. Katie agrees but says Hope will come around eventually. Still, Brooke worries — who will Hope turn to in the meantime? Hope ends up visiting her father, Deacon, who supports her through this rough patch — one she had a hand in creating. He assures her she can trust him, and he’ll always be there. At the Spencer mansion, Liam confronts Bill about Luna’s release and pardon — and the danger it poses to Steffy and Kelly. Heated words are exchanged, including jabs about Liam’s romantic indecision and how his mother once hid the truth about who his father was. Liam vents, saying he’s the only son who’s truly stood by Bill’s side. He even threatens to quit. Bill accepts and reminds Liam how he rose from a tech boy to a high-ranking position — and now, he wants him gone by the time he returns. But something’s wrong. Liam begins to feel faint. His face pales, and suddenly he collapses, hitting his head. He wakes up, bleeding, and stumbles outside — only to faint again. Back at Forrester, Steffy and Ridge discuss Luna and their desire to see her back in prison. Steffy informs her father that she told Liam, and Ridge is appalled. They reflect on Ridge’s role as a good father and husband. Steffy then heads to Bill’s house to confront him — only to find Liam unconscious outside. She immediately calls 911. Meanwhile, Finn and Kelly spend time together as they wait for Liam. Liam is rushed into the hospital — and flatlines.

  • 'Doctor Odyssey' Season 1 Episode 13 "Spring Break" Review

    It’s spring break on Ryan Murphy’s medical drama, Doctor Odyssey. Paris Jackson comes aboard the Odyssey as Vanessa, and some much-needed fun in the sun turns disastrous. Episode 13, titled “Spring Break,” begins with Vanessa and her friends, Victoria, and Veronica, expressing their excitement about having a summer adventure before entering their senior year and the real world.  Noah Beck and Anthony Turpel also join the Odyssey. Turpel’s character, Connor, is quite the flirt and Beck’s character, Steve, is the complete opposite, embarrassing himself around women. Connor, Vanessa, Victoria, and Veronica are all disgusted when Steve’s “Cruller loses its creme filling,” in the pool as Captain Massey puts it. We all know what that means and… yikes.  Max goes to talk to him and asks if this has ever happened before, which Steve admits it has. Max tells him that it sounds like he has a condition called Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder, also known as PGAD.  In Rosie’s room, she’s hosting a small meeting for her fellow crew members who struggled with alcohol abuse, especially during this week. They tell each other that they will get through it. When Avery gets some medicine for a cruiser, Hannah, who’s too busy studying for her LSAT to eat, Max tells her that she will be an amazing mom, which Tristan overhears. This may have led him to revert to his old ways because soon after he’s slinging tequila shots with the college cruisers.  Tristan isn’t the only one the college crowd wants a piece of. Vanessa, Victoria, and Veronica set their sights on Max when they see him jogging in his gray sweatpants. He tries to let them down gently after being invited to their room, but they walk away telling him that they’ll see him later tonight.  When Avery checks on Hannah, she doesn’t feel good, so Avery and Max look after her in the infirmary. They determine that her symptoms aren’t related to drinking or being intimate with people, so they decide to run more tests. Rosie checks on Tristan and tells him about her struggles with alcoholism while working on the Odyssey. She also tells him that she’s starting to notice the same patterns in him, but he completely denies it. He says he can stop drinking whenever he wants, and even throws away all his liquor bottles to show it. Rosie looks very concerned. Max pulls Steve aside and tells him that his blood tests came out clean and asks how much weight he lost. Steve lets him know that he had stopped taking his depression medication that caused him to gain the weight. According to Max, the Paroxetine medication may be the cause of his PGAD, and he’s going to prescribe a new medicine, Fluoxetine, that won’t cause weight gain. While in the middle of the ocean Vanessa, Veronica, and Victoria say their trip so far has been everything and they declare that they will have a four-way with “Doctor DILF.” Veronica calls Max into their room, saying that Victoria doesn’t feel well.  In the bathroom Vanessa sniffs cocaine and then immediately faints after coming out. Max tells the girls to call the infirmary, but chaos ensues when he gives her mouth-to-mouth. Max then passes out too. Avery comes in, stunned to see Max on the floor. The girls finally confess that Vanessa was taking cocaine, but Avery tells them that it’s actually fentanyl. Tristan comes in to help and gets Vanessa to wake up. Avery wasn’t having any luck, but she finally managed to wake Max up, leaving her incredibly happy and relieved.  Captain Massey alerts Avery, Max, and Tristan that the authorities have been made aware of the issue. Max tells Massey that he promised that the girls wouldn’t get in trouble if they came clean. Massey reluctantly agrees and tells him to get all the drugs off his ship immediately.  Avery takes care of Tristan when she sees him throwing up from all the drinking he was doing. She tells him that Max is feeling better and that they can handle everything while he’s resting. They hug, but Max interrupts them. Victoria is rushed into the infirmary with a severe case of sudden paralysis. Later she starts coughing up blood, causing Max to diagnose her with the bends. They get her to a hyperbaric chamber, and she feels much better and can walk again. Avery finally discovers Hannah’s condition, which is Hemochromatosis. Hannah confesses that her case is genetic. Avery suggests an unconventional approach from the 1700s, bloodletting, and encourages her to recognize that there’s more to life than just law school.  Adorably enough, Steve and Hannah start to connect in the pool and Steve’s PGAD is proven to be gone. It’s an interesting full circle moment.  In a heartfelt moment, the big three, Max, Tristan, and Avery, come together when Tristan gets vulnerable about his father struggling with alcohol abuse. He says that he swore he’d never be that type of man or father. Sean Teale puts on an amazing performance.  At the end of the tumultuous episode, Max and Avery reassure Tristan that they’re there to support him, and Tristan bravely attends one of Rosie’s meetings. He confesses that he may have a drinking problem.  Looks like next week the triangle between Max, Avery, and Tristan rears its head when Avery is finally able to take the paternity test. Who’s the daddy? Viewers will have to wait and see. Episode 14 will air April 10, 2025, on ABC. It will also stream on Hulu the next day.

  • Performer of the Week: Kelli Williams on 'Found'

    This week’s pick for performer of the week goes to Kelli Williams as Margaret Reed on NBC’s Found. From the pilot episode we have seen Margaret go through the emotions of losing her child Jamie and helping Gabi find missing people weekly by using her “superpower”. You need a read on a person, Margaret is the one to call. This season has seen her dealing with the revelation that Gabi has been lying to her and the team.  Spoiler alert if you do not know and somehow have been living under a rock but it was revealed that Gabi was keeping Mark-Paul Gosselaar’s character Sir locked up in her basement. He escaped and all hell broke loose. He is back in custody now taunting not just Gabi but Margaret as well. This week we got a back story into Margaret's life around the time her child first went missing and were able to see her decline.  Her husband left her and she could not be a mother to her other children. From the flashbacks to the present, Kelli Williams did an amazing job portraying Margaret’s struggle. Her defining moment standing up to the pure evil that is Sir was chef’s kiss. Even Sir was taken aback.  This season has been a rollercoaster of emotions and part of the reason that the show works is the relationship between Gabi and her friends. When Margaret was giving Gabi the cold shoulder, we could feel that as well as viewers. Kelli gives everything in this role. Her emotions are all over her face. She has the ability to make us love her, hate her and sympathize all at the same time. What she is doing with her current storyline with Jamie is impeccable. That is why this week she has earned The TV Cave’s Performer of the Week.

  • '9-1-1' Season 8 Episode 13 "Invisible" Recap

    I’m starting to have a love/hate relationship with ‘9-1-1’ and it is destressing me. I am so used to watching it weekly but I am finding this season to be my least favorite. I feel like since the show moved to ABC there has been a shift in the writing and not really for the best unfortunately. Even the look of the show feels different. Am I the only one feeling this way? Am I justified or trippin? This episode was Hen focused and I love Hen but she can be a bit dramatic at times. It is her birthday and everyone forgot except Athena and Eddie (who only remembered because they are Facebook friends). It was funny when he pointed that out to Buck who then in turn asked how old Eddie is. Do only old millennials still use Facebook and no one told me? Hen is feeling down because even Karen forgot her birthday. Your spouse and bestie forgetting I can understand, but making Buck clean your yard because he forgot, come on now. It was a bit much and her mother had to point that out.  ASKYLER BELL, DECLAN PRATT, AISHA HINDS, TRACIE THOMS (Disney/Ray Mickshaw) Hen being Hen got really involved with a patient of hers and the 118 rescued a couple of times. A man named Archie goes through the world being and feeling invisible. He got fired from his job and his fiancé cheated on him with his cousin (he found out while stuck under their pull out bed) then kicked him out and while living in his car it gets towed. Not to mention he gets crushed by a truck so he is just having a bad week. Hen gives him some words of encouragement and when he has had enough he twists her words and hijacks a bus accidentally stabbing a passenger.  The cops need someone to get on the bus and help and Hen volunteers of course. She is able to talk him down and save his life again when the police think he has another weapon. She learns a lesson in the process about her feelings of her birthday not being remembered. Meanwhile, Eddie down in Texas finally steps up and takes control over his relationship with his son Christopher. He tries to cook dinner, get basketball tickets to spend time with him but his parents are always in the way. There is a chess tournament over the weekend and Eddie’s dad wants to go making Eddie feel left out. After listening to Buck, Eddie shows up anyway and Christopher throws up under the pressure. He tells Eddie he hates chess and only plays to please his grandparents. Eddie finally decides that he is telling Christopher he is moving back with him instead of asking. Christopher is also happy that Eddie is stepping up and being his dad again. That solves one problem, so when is Eddie moving back to LA? The episode was kind of mid. The rescues were interesting enough but nothing about the episode as a whole stood out. What did you think? Drop a comment and remember to vote in our poll.

  • 'Pulse' Review: A Flatline in the World of Medical Dramas

    Pulse is Netflix’s answer to the medical dramas that are taking TV by storm. From new medical dramas like Brilliant Minds, Doc, Watson and The Pitt grabbing viewers attention, it was only a matter of time before Netflix got in on the action. Pulse is a 10 episode drama that centers on the doctors at a Level One Trauma hospital in Miami, Florida.  The series tries really hard to set itself apart from other shows that viewers will instantly compare it to like, you’ve guessed it, Grey’s Anatomy. The writers even go as far as to throw a line in there about a medical student that has watched too much Grey’s Anatomy. Thou doth protest too much, Pulse.  Look, I tried to give the show a fair shot and remove all knowledge of previous medical dramas and it did not help. There was nothing new or exciting about the series. There is a hurricane (its Miami so expected) that is causing the emergency room to be overwhelmed with patients and the main character, Danielle also known as Danny is a senior resident who is promoted to Chief Resident after filing a sexual harassment complaint against her boss Xander but she really does like him, it is all very confusing. Due to the power outage caused by the storm, it is all hands on deck and Xander is called back into work and the staff treat him like the boss over Danny. Danny is just not strong enough to lead the series.  PULSE. (L to R) Jessie T. Usher as Sam Elijah and Willa Fitzgerald as Danny Simms in Episode 102 of Pulse. Cr. Courtesy of Netflix © 2025 Danny and Xander’s boss and everyone’s boss is Natalie Cruz played by Justina Machado, who I love. Her character’s daughter is injured in a bus crash in the first episode and Danny does not tell her right away. Their dynamic while meant to be full of conflict and drama is a snooze.  The remaining characters also fall flat. No one is interesting enough for me to care. They also resemble the original Grey’s Anatomy interns. We have a British character named Tom who is very similar to Alex. The patient's problems, whether medical or otherwise, do not offer anything groundbreaking. While some seasoned actors are on the show, the acting from the not so seasoned actors bring their interactions down.  Overall, you can definitely skip Pulse. Let’s go back to the drawing board Netflix and get us a medical drama worth our time.

  • 'Mobland' Season 1 Episode 1 "Stick or Twist" Recap

    Long live Queen Helen Mirren. She is dominating Paramount+ with 1923 and now Mobland  which has gained 2.2 million viewers since the premiere dropped. She did not have many scenes in the pilot but the scenes she did have proved that she is the one to look out for in the Harrigan family. Pierce Bronson’s Conrad may be King, but Helen Mirren’s Maeve is definitely the Queen.   We open with Harry (Tom Hardy) having a meeting with two mob families who cannot apologize to each other. When he goes to update Conrad on the outcome of the meeting, Conrad tells him in not so many words how to handle it. Harry returns to deliver the good news and takes both families out. So, it is now noted should Harry be giving you good news and your name is not Harrigan, the news really is not good at all.   Harry is the enforcer and cleanup for the mob family. He is also a family man himself who is having marital problem with his wife Jan (Joanne Froggatt, Downton Abbey) but seems to have a strong relationship with his daughter. Jan wants to go to therapy but Harry is reluctant. The question that remains unanswered is if Jan knows what Harry does for a living. Jan has been doing therapy on her own unsuccessfully but met a friend (possible love interest). I am keeping my eye on those two. L-R Pierce Brosnan as Conrad Harrigan and Tom Hardy as Harry Da Souza in MOBLAND, episode 1, season 1, Streaming on Paramount+ 2025. Photo Credit: Luke Varley/Paramount+  The grandson of Conrad, Eddie has been hanging out with is friend Tommy who is the son of a rival mob family. When they are out Eddie stabs someone and returns home but Tommy never makes it back. Eddie is keeping quiet and now Tommy’s father Richie is out for blood. Harry takes care of the man Eddie stabbed by scaring him into keeping quiet but now a war is coming.   Conrad wants to take over the fentanyl in the city and Richie stands in his way. He sends his best friend and deal maker Archie out to handle things and later in the episode calls a family meeting with all the kids (one he clearly had with another woman and Maeve treats her like she doesn’t even exist) and Archie to discuss the next move. Before the meeting Maeve tells Conrad that Archie has betrayed him with Richie. Which goes back to an earlier scene in the episode where Maeve first sees Archie and said she thought he was dead. Conrad has a hard time believing it at first but when Maeve tells him to mention “the fire” watch his reaction. Conrad does just that and it confirms that Archie has been working with Richie. Conrad shoots him dead much to Maeve’s delight. Conrad is upset and does not want Maeve to touch him.   This dynamic is so interesting. Is Conrad even in charge or is Maeve the one pulling the strings? What did you think of the episode? Drop a comment and remember to vote in our poll.

  • 'Ghosts' Season 4 Episode 17 "His Girl Shiki" Recap

    Tonight’s episode of Ghosts finally gave our favorite dream creeper a chance at love. Sass has been getting cracked on a lot lately about being a virgin and Pete may just have the solution. He found another “roamer” ghost named Joan who is interested in meeting him. Could this finally be the moment? When Sass and Joan meet they hit it off after some awkward and hilarious first meeting small talk. Joan used to work as a screenplay writer at Paramount (nice work there network) in the 1920s. She blends in perfectly with the gang as she roasts Trevor and Sam on her book about Isaac. Sass lets it slip he is still hung up on Shiki and cannot really move on with Joan, especially knowing that the longer roamers roam they do not have to return to the place where they died.  The gang decide that they need to find out once and for all if Shiki has feelings for Sass and if not he can move on. Pete asks Shiki if she has feelings for Sass and once she finds out Sass left a dead deer for her family it changes her feelings for him. Sam and the ghosts decide its best not to tell Sass so he can move on Joan since he can never truly be with Shiki because they live on different properties.  Pictured (L-R): Brandon Scott Jones as Isaac, Rebecca Wisocky as Hetty, and Danielle Pinnock as Alberta.

His plan to have Alberta hold a concert and not show up does not exactly work out so when he reveals the truth to Alberta about how much it hurt him that she did not show up to his party she explains that she was a new ghost and was still processing what happened.

  • 'Found' Season 2 Episode 17 "Missing While Manipulated" Review

    What was that?! Talk about adrenaline rushing, edge of your seat tv. Were you right about Sir’s accomplice? Did you guess the reveal a few episodes ago? Episode 17 was a high-velocity, full throttle cascade of storylines that kept you locked in from scene to scene. Directed by Mark-Paul Gosselaar, the audience was taken on an intense journey filled with anxiety, fear, reveals, and hugs. Lots of hugs! I admit, I was worried for Gabi and Margaret. I didn’t know how the episode would unfold, but it continues to confirm FOUND is one of the leaders in primetime television. [SPOILERS]  After a brief hiatus, the show continues with the search for Jamie. As Gabi and Dhan search for clues in her basement, Margaret reaches out to Trent who tells her Jamie went to see Sir. As we know, Sir is only interested in one particular visitor, but we can see he enjoys poking the mama bear. At the prison, Margaret wants details about his conversation with Jamie but Sir likes to be in control during patient assessments. “You’re becoming unhinged aren’t you,” Sir says.  “...you were able to turn your back on Gabrielle without batting an eye…good and bad can coexist”. Frustrated, Margaret wants answers but Sir is tight-lipped until he gets what he wants. “I will tell you what you want to know if you bring Gabrielle to see me.” As Margaret and Trent leave the prison, they cross paths with Heather who still wants to repair their relationship. Trent tells her, “It’s not too late…just stop representing Sir”. Before Margaret leaves, her superpower kicks in and she notices something about Heather which many of us have been wondering about for a while - who is she? Margaret believes she is Sir’s sister, Lina. She has all the traits that fit and it explains why she would take his case. Gold star to everyone who guessed correctly. The case of the week was a feast filled with beautiful POV camera angles that drew you into the room. Monty Clark, a father who was released from prison, held Gabi and Margaret hostage at the M&A office. Furious for being separated from his family by Gabi, Monty requests her help by gunpoint to find his son. After having Gabi and Margaret chain the doors and turn off security cameras, he replays all the events that led to him being separated from his family.  With every wave of the gun, you can feel the anticipation and fear in the room. Mark-Paul’s eye for tight POV shots was a tone I was not expecting. The high-low pivots gave you a sense of what each character was seeing and feeling in those moments.  An energy current flowed between the performers in the conference room that allowed each person to showcase their strengths. There was also a nice parallel between Monty's desperation to find his son and Margaret running to Jamie when she hears him calling her name from outside. She has to go to him. She can’t fail him again, especially if he is calling for her. As Monty holds the gun towards Margaret to stop, Gabi steps in front of him. She is standing IN HIS space, trying to reason with him face-to-face. Extremely powerful scene. Outside of M&A, watching Jamie push past Dhan and Trent to get to Margaret pulled on all my heart strings. The fear and urgency to reach her caught me by surprise.  It’s during this moment we see that Jamie loves his mom! It was the reassurance the team and the audience needed to help confirm his identity. A glimmer of hope for their relationship seems brighter after that warm embrace between them.  With Gabi alone with Monty, she slowly builds his trust and they begin to work the case with the M&A team gathered at Zeke’s. After doing interviews with Monty’s ex-wife's family and friends, they were able to surmise Dahlia went to a clinic for help and had her friend watch Jalen. Monty was worried for Jalen’s safety because Dahlia needed postpartum care. To break away from her parents' manipulation, Dahlia sought help with the plan to eventually reconcile with Monty. The love of a father has been a constant story theme this season. Monty was desperate to protect his family, even though he didn’t go about it in the best way.  This case also showed how much Gabi has grown as an investigator and that her trauma is not everyone’s same journey.    As the episode comes to a close, Margaret visits Sir and lets her know she is not the one to mess with, especially when it comes to Gabi. “You know what my superpower is and from now on, it's trained on you,” Margaret said. “…I will make sure you never hurt Gabi again”. Throwing a card down before Margaret leaves, Sir said, “Don’t worry Margaret. The clouds will part eventually. Just give it a min”.    “Where did you hear that?” she asked.  Sir says it’s something Jamie’s mother always said. “I assumed it was from you….”  Sir is messy but what clue did he give Margaret? Does she know who took Jamie? Have we seen or met this person on screen? Let's see what unravels next week. Found airs Thursday night, stream next day on Peacock.

  • 'Grey's Anatomy' Season 21 Episode 13 "Don't You (Forget About Me)" Recap

    This week’s Grey’s Anatomy actually held my interest and attention. The storylines were interesting. Owen and Teddy who I usually find boring have spiced things up a level. Teddy and Bailey are away at a conference and of course who shows up - Cass. Things have been getting hot between these two (Teddy, not Bailey if that was not clear) with the whole will they/won’t they scenario. After Cass saves the day by fixing Bailey’s (who is noticing things going on but keeping quiet) presentation, Teddy in a moment alone with Cass, lets her know it's time for them to give into their mutual attraction. Only one problem - when it came down to it, Teddy was unable to “go all the way” with Cass. She felt like she was cheating on Owen and came to the realization that an open marriage is not the answer to her and Owen's marital problems. I wish someone told Owen this because he definitely went all the way with his crush, Nora missing Teddy’s goodnight, I love you text message. Yikes. Meanwhile, Lucas, feeling the weight of having to repeat his intern year has found motivation to seek advice on how to convince Catherine to let him move forward. Richard basically tells him he has not got a shot at all. It is like asking for water from the devil at this point. Good luck to you Lucas, we are all rooting for you. Jo has issues of her own this episode and not to do with Link (thank goodness). She finally let the cute Dr. Marcus know that just because she is pregnant with twins does not give him the right to try and walk all over her or steal her patients. Way to stand up for yourself girl. NIKO TERHO, AMY PIETZ, DREW DROEGE (Disney/Anne Marie Fox) Jules and Winston are hitting it off as mentor and mentee. What started off as a seemingly easy case was a prerequisite for something bigger and Jules is really shining. Speaking of shining however, Simone has been dubbed the star intern after last week and is on Amelia's service working on Blue’s girlfriend. Blue gets in her head before the surgery to not let Amelia push it and when Simone calls her out it causes an issue between them. Simone apologizes and she and Amelia are able to move forward.  Speaking of Blue, things really do not go his way when he finds out more information about Molly from her ex. In the end, Molly was only with Blue to get her memories back and the two decide to break up. Blue is feeling blue at the bar but his kind of friends are there to help him out. I’m glad this frees up Blue to find someone that will love him for him. No friction between Simone and Lucas which is a win. Overall, a decent episode.  What did you think?

  • 'The Pitt' Season 1 Episode 14 "8:00 P.M." Recap

    Finally some downtime from the chaos of the last few episodes dealing with the active shooter at PittFest. When I say downtime, I mean getting back to regular emergency room patients that are brought in. It was also nice to see some new faces from day shift come in again. Whittaker being the one to get Robby off the floor was such a great moment. Robby pushed him away after and that hurt a little but I got it. Really great acting again from Noah Wyle. We also got to meet Jake’s mother as Robby has been avoiding Jake. I know they are broken up and the situation did not call for it but the chemistry was not "chemming" at all. I definitely prefer him with Collins.  Noah Wyle, Gerran Howell Photograph by Warrick Page/Max Still so much tension with Langdon hanging around. Other doctors are starting to notice the beef as the two of them throw insults and jabs at each other. I just want her to scream out that he has been stealing drugs from the hospital. Turns out that the young boy that threatened his girl classmates was not the shooter. Dr. McKay had to eat some crow and be the one to tell him he has to stay for 72 hours. Of course he did not take that news well. The guest star actors on this show are just as great as the main cast. When he reunites with his mother there is another tense moment. This boy clearly needs some help. Robby says McKay made this mess by not listening to him and now she has to fix it. Victoria and Diaz may have a little something going on. He has been really nice to her and they have a moment where he makes sure she gets something to drink. Victoria blushes as Diaz knows her name. I am actually rooting for them now. It's super cute in a world where we are surrounded by death and heartache each hour.  Robby loses it on parents who do not believe in vaccines and their kids contracted measles. Their daughter got better but the son is in critical condition and the mother is not listening to medical advice. Interesting story considering the news recently. It was nice to see Robby eventually thank Whittaker for his help.  In the final moments of the episode, McKay is arrested after tampering with her ankle monitor last episode. Come on man, those cops and everyone in the city knows about the mass shooting. They could not give her a break? There is a way she has to get out of it right? What did you think of the episode?
