geebsTV commentary:
The Magicians- Dammit! Why are there no gifsets of Alice being all crazy/horny from this ep that I can reblog? But what the hell, Julia? I get she and Quentin are having a row, but that seems kinda petty, helping Marina cast a spell on him like that. I mean, I guess she didn't know how bad the spell was going to be, but still. This show really is full of dicks. Though I guess she and Katie actually did feel bad in the end. Though interesting, Julia gets cast out for going against Marina, but in all that craziness, did Brakebills figure out Katie was a mole?
Also, we find out Marina is a former Brakesbill student. Turns out once you advance far enough, you're too powerful to have the memory erasure work. So, they take away your magic and put it into items. Though I wonder why they can't erase their memory after they've depowered them?
X-Files- That was weird. Since they didn't actually stop the Trash-golem thing before it completed its mission, was the only point to make Scully fret that she and Mulder's kid they gave up thinkin they threw him out like trash? And I guess I don't recall Scully's family life that well, but what the hell, none of her brothers could be bothered to see their mom on her freaking deathbed? What a bunch of dicks!
PLL- Interesting, I don't think this new A is as skilled or seemingly omniscient as the previous one. And the liars are older and tougher and wiser, but I think that's causing them to take risks they shouldn't be. I mean, from that text to Em, new A really seems to think the Liars know who the killer is, when they have no idea. But then yeah, not only do they boldly slip A a fake drive, Caleb loads it with a virus that crashes their computer.
But yeah, I wonder if Hanna knew that was going to happen. Because her mom is the one most at risk from this- I mean, the video footage doesn't prove anything other than Aria left for a few hours. But erasing the local copy and stealing the drive are actual crimes which can be traced to Ashley (yes, Hanna did the first part, but the cops can think Ashley did it all) I'm thinking there'll be a blow up between her and Spencer and Caleb over this. (Heh, there was a scene where she was taking her leave of them and they basically didn't really notice, and she was miffed that they didn't care she was leaving)
Also, someone, possibly A, engineered a fake text to Spencer and Toby's gf to both separately meet some reporter guy, but when they don't see him around and bump into each other, they decide to have lunch together and talk shop. Only Yvonne accidentally leaves her phone, which Spence takes. Caleb clones it so he'll have more to work with to figure out who sent those texts. But they have to know that will look pretty bad if its discovered. Indeed, when Spencer goes to return the phone, its Mona who picks it up for Yvonne, and is all, "I know you wouldn't consider doing anything improper with this phone" and Spencer asks if Mona engineered this all. But Mona says this isn't HS, she doesn't do that sort of thing anymore.
Of course, while Caleb is looking into Yvonne's phone, he gets into her mom's campaign system and finds some files on the Hastings, which he's tempted to look at. So again, that's prolly going to blow up in their faces and hurt Veronica's campaign.
Other stuff, Aria's parents are getting back together, and Byron claims that's why he's been so shifty, but Aria doesn't believe it. Also, the Liars find out the room Sara has been staying in is Charlotte's old room when she was in Radley. Team Sparia breaks in looking for Byron's golf club, and Aria finds an entrance to a secret lair in the closet.
iZombie- Heh, is it me, or have the threads gotten so entangled its getting confusing? Did Blaine really not know Peyton knew Liv? And did we know he used to work for Mr. Boss? But yikes, looks like a war is coming- Mr Boss sends three men, including his nephew, after Peyton's boss, whom Major had claimed wasn't a zombie to Vaughn. Baracus (WAIT, is that intentional, DA Baracus? Ha, I just noticed that!) ends up killing them and taking their heads to eat later. Which throws a huge monkey wrench in things for both Blaine and Major.
Major gets in trouble with Vaughn, and is vaguely threatened that if he's disloyal and not doing his job, he'll have to send his new ex-military security consultant to handle things, starting with Liv. Major says Baracus was the only one he let go, because he felt guilty because the guy was with his kid. Vaughn believes that for now, especially after Major helps Baracus fake his death and puts him in the cooler with his other "kills".
But, with Boss' guys getting slaughtered like that, he prolly thinks its the "new player" in town, who happens to be Blaine. And as such, thinks Blaine is the guy who murdered his nephew.
Getting back to Vaughn though, it is weird he trusts Major enough to do stuff on his own. Like he was crazy enough to murder someone halfway around the world due to a mean tweet. But yeah, Major can detect zombies, so instead of having Major hunt alone, why wouldn't he send his security man with him?
Teen Wolf- Heh, this whole time I thought Donovan was one of Theo's packmates, but I guess it was actually Josh? So, the gang manages to rescue Lydia, and hey she says, "Stiles saved me!" and giving him the heart eyes. So the Stydia shippers are thrilled.
Still no idea who the Beast is. Valack has been trying to get it out of Lydia (before she literally blew his head up with her screams). She says they checked everyone who had transplants. He says there's gotta be someone they missed, someone with two strains of DNA for some reason. As I said before, I'm curious who it is, they've been so mysterious it has to be someone we've seen. But I can't think of anyone off the top of my head who would have the mixed DNA.
