“Snowflake” is a compelling episode that leaves a lot to be resolved. While I think the Marvin/Bridget story line is over, I wonder if it really is. With Ray dumping Bridget’s bloody clothes in a dumpster, has he paved the way for the cops to find out the truth? And with Mickey paying Cherry (Jeryl Prescott Sales) to distract Boris (Nick Gracer), the marijuana shop security guard, as only she can do with that talented mouth of hers, does that mean he and Shorty (Steph DuVall) will go ahead with their planned robbery of the store? Will they both end up in jail? Also, will Bunchy’s problems with Patty and Clifford spell the end of their relationship? More importantly, will Bunchy ever be able to sustain a normal relationship with a woman? Perhaps the most important question I have is how will Bridget ever recuperate from last week’s devastation? I know time heals all wounds but still… And last but not least, will Ray and Abby ever be able to repair their marriage?

After a nine month hiatus, fans of the show will be delighted to learn how quickly the story lines hit the ground running from the opening episode.

The past year has been one of increasing anxiety for Sons of Anarchy (SOA) fans ever since series creator Kurt Sutter announced the show’s upcoming seventh season would be its final one. Considering last season’s finale, “A Mother’s Work,” upset many fans with the tragic death of Dr. Tara Knowles (Maggie Siff), will the final season’s premiere live up to fans’ expectations?

Falling Skies takes us on an epic journey throughout its two-hour season four finale. From dreams to reality, we aren’t quite sure what’s real or just a façade, but one thing is clear, the humans are willing to fight to the death to rid themselves of the Espheni.

As much as I want to see a continuation, even a small tidbit of where the strigoi SWAT team comes from in last week’s “For Services Rendered,” I can’t say I’m at all disappointed in what goes down in this week’s “Creatures of the Night.” If the title doesn’t clue you in, this episode explores how the newborn strigoi—a type of vampire, according to our resident strigoi guru Abraham (David Bradley)—behave when stalking their prey. I thought they were mindless, blood thirty creatures, but on the contrary, they are clever in how they corner their victims.

“The Gathering” does well to throw in a few action shots, dramatic moments, and heartfelt words to catch your attention. I don’t get all of the politics surrounding the pledging and whatnot, but I do enjoy the costumes, music, and set design.

“Sunny” does a good job of furthering everyone’s story lines—some ending and some continuing—as we near the end of season two of Ray Donovan. I’m not sorry Bridget’s first love is over; maybe now, she’ll stop lying and listen to her parents for a change. She certainly has her eyes opened for her, doesn’t she? Now that Kate knows Ray lied to her, it’s only a matter of time before she uncovers the truth. But will she be allowed to do that? The truth could cost some people very dearly if it ever comes to light. With Terry returning his paychecks to Harriet (Jayne Taini), will he and Frances (Brooke Smith) take off for Ireland? And as far as Abby and Ray are concerned, do you think they’re headed for divorce? Is that what Abby wants or has she perhaps taken her relationship with Jim a bit too far?

A Musical For Season 5? Throughout the press room round tables, I was able to speak with many of the main cast including Doug Jones (Cochise), Maxim Knight (Matt Mason), Drew Roy (Hal Mason), Sarah Carter (Maggie), Moon Bloodgood (Anne Glass), and Scarlett Byrne (Lexi). I also spoke with writer David Eick who gave us major insight into what’s coming in the final season.

But after an unsuccessful enrollment at a prestigious clowning school in Paris, the only job he can find is with the local rodeo.

If you were expecting a lot of fireworks in the season finale of Tyrant, you’ll be disappointed. There are no fireworks at all. For that matter, no one even raises their voice. I know writers Howard Gordon and Chris Keyser could have done a better job. The cliffhanger isn’t even a proper cliffhanger as we all know there’s no way Jamal is going to execute Barry. Unless, of course, Rayner wants off the show next season. All in all, as season finales go, “Gone Fishing” is a huge disappointment for me.

“Sleep Deprived” does a fair job of moving along the plot. My concern is the lack of time spent in the lab finding a cure, and the actual lottery itself. No one said it would be a fricking game show.

Just when it appears there may be some down time after the defeat of the mandragora, Witches of East End manages keep up the drama with some unexpected new characters with all too familiar faces. “Art of Darkness” sets up the next phase of danger for the Beauchamp family, making the threat of the mandragora bite size in comparison to the king size problem awaiting them courtesy of Frederick Beauchamp (Christian Cook).

Let’s address the ginormous elephant in the room – who the hell are those hooded men (for lack of a better term) who come charging their way through Joan Luss’ (Leslie Hope) house? Whoever you are, thank you for saving Neeva (Kim Roberts) and the Luss children, but what the heck are you? They’re like the Strigoi SWAT Team; they look like strigoi but aren’t mindless like the newbies wandering the streets. I’ve asked before and I’ll ask again – do these strigoi creatures become more civilized with time? Are they able to control their thirst like the enigmatic Thomas Eichorst (Richard Sammel)? I’m thoroughly intrigued and buckled in for the long haul!

“Drawing Straws” has a couple of Star Wars references. Like Pope telling Tom, “Sorry, I forgot your master plan – hijacking the Millennium Falcon out there and fly it to the moon.” While there are some similarities in the premise of Star Wars and Falling Skies, what Falling Skies does in this penultimate episode is remind you of the human spirit. But let’s play Devil’s advocate – what if the Espheni aren’t really evil aliens?

“The Way Out” opens with a touching scene, and ends with one filled with hope for our heroine. Who knows, maybe she’ll find her way out…

“Walk This Way” is Liev Schreiber’s first attempt at directing a TV show and outside of one scene, he does a fairly good job. I don’t particularly care for the way Schreiber shoots Ray stumbling down the stairs at the party. But, even though Schreiber succeeds as a director, unfortunately, “Walk This Way” doesn’t really do it for me.

Having just been fired, Louis (Rick Hoffman) approaches Harvey (Gabriel Macht) about taking some of his old clients to help him get back on his feet at a new firm. Harvey is open to the idea but Jessica (Gina Torres) isn’t. She enforces the partnership agreement Louis signed, thereby eliminating any chance of Louis being hired by another New York firm. With no clients of his own, could this be the end for Louis?
