Hello everyone and welcome back! Let's dive right in shall we?
Okay so look I'm not always the hugest fan of sitcoms cause something about them just lacks stakes and I tend to find their humor is not for me or that the whole episodic nature of them prevents me from caring about the characters but I wanted to check this one out cause of Emily Osment and Gregg Sulkin who are two Disney actors that I've adored since I was younger. I even watched and enjoyed Emily's last sitcom Young & Hungry (even if the last season kinda fell apart for me) so I dived in not sure what I would find. The pilot was rough I have to admit cause it went really hard on the stereotypes that each character was embodying but as the season went on the characters all mellowed and started to feel like real people rather than caractures so I was definitely recommend at least waiting until episode 3 before you choose whether to drop it or not. Yes there were some episodes that were a bit boring given the nature of a sitcom but on the whole I really enjoyed every one of the wacky adventures our cast went on. I even fell in love with Chelsea and Grant and their chemistry though I did think their interest in each other started off a bit fast cause if these two already have feelings in season 1 then we're clearly in for the long haul in terms of the will they/won't they dating and breakup relationship carousel that sitcoms are known for. Having said that I totally called the cliffhanger of the season and I'm really left wondering if there will be more!
Stargirl Season 2 Episode 10
As much as hate the nonsense with Courtney and Mike mistrusting Barbara and Pat now for "their lies" this show still slays me every week with how good it is!! Shade showed up again and told our heroes that the only way to stop Eclipso is to fix the Black Diamond but he lied and actually said that in order to return his shade powers to him and instead fixing the Diamond brought Eclipso to them and Courtney was sucked into the Shadowland. I'm assuming that she's going to meet up with Cindy and the original Dr Midnite who are also there and then eventually they'll return. I also really liked seeing Jenny again though her whole side plot with her brother really feels like it could be a backdoor pilot cause I know Berlanti wants to make a Green Lantern show and what if this it that? Honestly I'm not that thrilled about it cause I wanted a show with more aliens and a focus on the Lantern Core instead of a singular Earthly Green Lantern cause god knows we have enough of the same old same old superhero stuff and I wanted something different!
For some reason I went into this episode thinking it was supposed to be the finale so I was a bit surprised to find out that it's actually the penultimate and I'm still not sure what I'm supposed to be feeling or how. Dick was thrown into the Lazarus Pit and he's come back supposedly a new person or whatever and it literally just took him asking Jason to help him for Jason to be like yeah okay I'll be good again therefore I will never not be bitter at how this show ruined Jason though like the show I have a pretty short attention span so maybe by the time next season comes around I'll be like murderer who? Rachel is also continuously making me laugh with how she still feels like she's not back yet with how zen she is and uninterested in anything that's happening in Gotham. Like maybe it's the actress struggling to act next to Gar who's emoting his butt off but it's hilarious to see them be complete opposites in the same scene. Donna is also reminding me why I don't love this version of her with how she tries to force her opinions on others though Tim wanting to be Robin is so hamfisted that I'm just rolling my eyes. It also looks like Connor is becoming more like Lex with how he refused to listen to what Blackfire wanted and destroyed her ship in order to keep her with him though really why he thinks she'll forgive him for this is up in the air. I'm assuming that next week being the finale that obviously we'll defeat Crane and maybe the Titans will return to California though I'm not sure if any of the cast will be changing.
