Scribbles about TV: First week of March 2015

Started out strong. Better Call Saul Marathonin with my mom. She falls asleep before most of the episodes... I have a hard time paying attention to some of the episodes... so we watched the first 3 episodes of it and tried to explain it to my sister who had little interest and doesn't like Breaking Bad.

Then I watched Secrets and Lies... which sucked. It really sucks its pretty bad. Its watchable, so I may continue watching it. Compared to The Slap its better but its still laughably awful and I think this isn't how crime investigations really work. Also I'm watching it now, the second episode is a little bit better than the pilot, but its still not good. I'm pretty sure the end is going to be the same as Gone Girl.

Ohhh and I half watched Once Upon a time. Ummm I don't think I watched the Winter Finale... I may not have watched the episode before that... I'm not sure. This is where Once looses me because I totally don't remember what happened and I feel like it isn't all that important because that villain is already dead or a good person again and everyone is happy or dead or something... but I still feel lost.  love Kristin Bauer Von Stratten though. She's a boss and a beautiful lady in general. I met her IRL... she's just radiant and amazing. Like you really cannot even tell how beautiful she looks in real life from how she looks on tv. She's gorgeous. And she was also the Man Hands Lady on Seinfeld, and I remember specifically looking at her hands and thinking that they were very dainty and beautiful. I forgot that was her when I met her, but still noticed her hands because they were really quite beautiful.

I watched a lot of the Parks and Rec episodes from all seasons pretty much. I watched something from Season 2 and then some episodes from last season and then some from season 3. Thats the amazing thing about this show I just want to watch them all all the time and I don't get sick. Such a good show. Love it.

I watched New Girl from last week and from this week I believe. Same with Mindy and Kroll Show. If I said I watched them last week, then I just watched the new episodes... I totally don't remember. They were pretty good though. I thought the blowout thing was funny on New Girl and Mindy was okay... not my favorite episode I guess. Idk I didn't really think it was laugh out loud funny or anything, but it was good.

Kroll show was good. I feel like I need to watch it again . I watched last weeks episode too and I liked the Pit Bull character. I was happy he did the Australian character from Comedy Bang Bang , I was sad that they didn't show any of his characters going to prison for 2 years.

I watched Seth Meyers and Jimmy Fallon this week. I watched some of The Daily Show and The Nightly Show... I will probably watch At Midnight too. They're good. I like Seth Meyers a lot.

Broad City! I watched it from last week and I will likely watch this weeks episode next. It was really good. Yes, this week had a good ep too! Cool! Lol.

I watched ABC's Wednesday night shows and their Thursday Shows. The Goldbergs and Blackish were funny. Greys was good. Scandal was really good, I'm glad they addressed Eric Garner, Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin in this episode, in a relatively objective way. You got to see the sides of everyone in the story and the struggle everyone was going through. American Crime is what I am watching currently and I really like it... I'm probably going to watch it again cause I'm missing stuff... but its good. Felicity Huffman is really good and so is Timothy Hutton and... yeah. I get Timothy Hutton and Ray Liota confused... for no reason at all. They aren't similar at all. I saw a movie with David Duchovney called Playing God that Timothy Hutton was in... and I guess I thought it would be better if Ray Liota was in it after seeing Goodfellas.

And I watched Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt which is amazing and I will have a full review on it in the near future.

I think that is everything. Here is a link for more detailed info about the three newer shows I watched this week, other than Kimmy Schmidt cause I wanted to give that a full review.So yeah!

Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
