Weekly Update: 3rd week of October 2018

Hello – hello my little faces and have a lovely Sunday. I hope that you had an awesome week, that you are all well and happy and that you watched a lot of episodes… Let’s see what I watched this week.

THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS

Charmed ( 1×01 ) ** new series **
The reboot that I was waiting for is finally here. As a fan of the original show, I wasn’t sure for my feelings when the news, about the reboot, was out. Then they cast Madeleine Mantock, who plays Macy Vaughn, and I said to myself that I will give it a try, only for her! So, long story short… I just watched it and it wasn’t that bad after all. The effects were decent, the three girls were really good in their roles and they had chemistry as well. I’m not so sure if I like Harry’s character or not yet but we’ll see. Their mother told them, after all, to not trust him… The “ice demon” from the episode wasn’t scary at all though, the “dog demon” on the other had it was!! The episode was a little too much man-hating ( please fix that, feminism isn’t about hating men ) but all the other stuff kinda like them.

Titans (1×01 ) ** new series ** 
What a great episode!! It was dark, brutal and full of beautiful characters. Every single one of them with their problems, their insecurities and with the need to prove themselves. I really liked Raven’s backstory, with her mom to try to be supportive of her daughter’s situation, even she had no idea what’s going on, and we even saw a guy that never talk to her at school defended her on a bully ( well done writers… well done! ). Dear Starfire, stop being so beautiful and badass at the same time because it’s really hard for the rest of us to follow… thank you. And now about my gorgeous, angry baby, Dick ( aka Robin ). I feel so in love with him… ( fight me on that ). And his line “Fuck Batman”… so hot!… I definitely can’t wait for the next episode ( and the whole season to be exact ).

Arrow ( 7×01 ) ** season premiere **
Let me hug my #Olicity ( Oliver x Felicity ) babies!! That was a hell of a premiere!! No, really. I totally loved it! After the end of season 6 when Oliver went to prison to save his family and friends we see him still there, five months later bitten up every day from the criminals that he had put behind the bars and always stay law so he can go back to his family… maybe. On the other hand, William and Felicity are on FBI’s witnesses protection program. Felicity working as a waitress on her whole pink hair and face piercings glory ( I’m in love, yes ) until one day Diaz ( I hate this guy ) finds them and almost kills her. She fought back though and went back to Star City tired of hiding. The scene that she had with Oliver in prison broke our poor hearts ( admit it, people ). Meanwhile, a new Green Arrow appears in Star City and Dinah, as the new police captain, is trying to capture him and has a disagreement with Rene because he believes that maybe the new guy wants to help. Through the episode, we a see a young man, on his early thirties, to travels to Lian Yu in order to find someone and we find out in the last scene of the episode ( thank God for that ) that he is William! ( yeap, Oliver’s son ) and he went there to find Roy ( on his whole Arsenal’s suit glory ). As you may figure out this season we will not have flashbacks but a lot ( as Beth, the new head writer, said ) flashforward scenes. Now, can the new Green Arrow be the future William? I can’t see why not…

I also watched: Doctor Who ( 11×02 ), Downtone Abby ( 3×08 – 4×01 ), The walking dead ( 9×02 ), Supergirl ( 4×01 ), The gifted ( 2×04 ), This is us ( 3×04 ), Hawaii five-0 ( 9×03 ), The flash ( 5×02 ), A discovery of witches ( 1×05 ), Riverdale ( 3×02 ), Criminal Minds ( 14×03 ), Supernatural ( 14×02 ), Blindspot ( 4×01 ), MacGyver ( 3×03 ), Black Lightning ( 2×01 & 2×02 ).
