Weekly Update: 3rd week of September 2018

Hello – hello my little faces and have a lovely Sunday. The hiatus from Hell it’s finally over and I’m here to start one of my favourite columns once again. I hope that you guys had an awesome summer but now it’s time to return back to our reality. Series premieres are back, the chilly weather as well and I couldn’t be happier. But enough with all of that… Let’s see what I watched this week.

The Originals ( 5×11, 5×12 & 5×13 ) ** series finale **
Those three last episodes were really nice. My favourite girl Freya married her loved one, Keelin, and together, with the help of Vincent will start a family. We saw that Hope was dying and how desperate Klaus was to save her. We even saw that Hayley was fine on the other side with the whole pack and she was just waiting for Elijah to go there ( crying until the end of the world ). Rebekah, finally, accepted Marcel’s proposal and the two of them will get married at some point. But, the greatest thing that Klaus did for his sister was that he asked Caroline when Elena dies to take the cure and give it to Rebekah so she can finally live as a human. Something that she wants for centuries. In the end, Klaus with the help of the Saltzman twins transferred The Darkness from Hope to Klaus. Klaus’ plan after that was to kill himself because that’s the only way to destroy The Darkness and keep everyone safe. The last scene, where Elijah tells his brother that he decided to die as well, broke my heart. They ended it up killing each other and that was it… boom. The end. I’d like to see Elijah reunite with Hayley but well, at least that’s where he went after he died… Right?

Poldark ( 4×07 & 4×08 ) ** season finale **
Well, you know that I adore this series but nothing really shocking happened. Only two things and one really good. Ross killed some guy ( I don’t even remember his name ) because this guy fall Demelza and he wanted her to be his mistress ( dude… like my sister said, “you’re not Hugh”… get over yourself ). This guy took it very badly when she threw him out of her house and he caused Ross to a duel. Long story short, Ross killed him ( bye bye asshole ). The second thing was Elizabeth’s death!! Yeah, people, she’s dead! She died when she drunk a medicine in order to give birth a little earlier ( again ) and convince George that Valentine is his son and not Ross’ ( well… ) and that happened again to give birth earlier. In the end though, even if she gave birth to a healthy little girl, she died.d Now, the good one is that FINALLY my adorable cutie pies, Drake and Morwenna got married!!

Fear the walking dead ( 4×09 – 4×14 )
Nothing really important happened unless that we saw season’s bad guy, a woman who believes that everyone that is on a group of people or takes food from the boxes that Morgan and the others leave on the road is weak and she turns them into zombies. ( psycho much?? ) The other thing is that one of the new characters, Jim Brauer, is my boy Aaron Stanford who played “James Cole” on 12 monkeys. ( thank you, Lord ). And, because I was probably a really bad person in my previous life, he got bitten.! I mean, WHY? Although ( well, not in my wildest dreams ) if the writers of the show are smart, will have made Jim have immunity to zombies’ bite! I don’t wanna see my boy Jim die.

A discovery of witches ( 1×01 ) ** series premiere **
New series people! If you like vampires and witches will probably like this one. It’s in our century, and vampires are mortal enemies with witches. Everyone wants to find an ancient book of magic, everyone except Diana Bishop ( Teresa Palmer ), a witch who refuses to use her powers since her parents murdered. On the other hand, the vampire Matthew Clairmont ( Matthew Goode ) starts to follow Diana everywhere because he believes that she is the key to their survivor. Until the end of the episode that he takes a really good breath of her sents and he can’t control himself. He wants to bite her… badly. ( well, truth be told that reminded me of Twilight but whatever )

The walking dead ( 7×05 – 7×16 ) ** season finale **
Maggie with Sasha is with Jesus and that asshole Gregory. It’s really clear that Jesus wants Maggie to become their new leader ( hell to the yeah! ). Sasha asked him to find where is Negan’s house and he hinds on their tracks but he is not alone. Carl had the same idea as well. I really hoped that the Camp that Tara found would become a part of the show and friends with our heroes but the women there were too traumatized by “The Saviors” and Negan to trust anyone. Carl went and tried to kill Negan but surprise – surprise, he didn’t make it. Negan returned Carl back to Alexandria and he spent his day “babysitting” Judith ( no one touches our princess dude ). Jesus saved Daryl ( finally ). We lost Spencer ( he was an ass but still ) and Olivia, just because Negan wanted to know who made the bullet which Rosita tried to kill him. At least, that was the reason for Rick to “wake up” and team up with Maggie and the others to bring him down. Dear King Ezekiel, why you don’t want to start a war with Negan?? Gabriel took some stuff and weapons and left ( I think that he has a plan though ) and the others went to find him. There, they made a deal with the group of people that, as we learn after, took Gabriel by force. Negan asked Eugene to help him with a situation with the walkers and Eugene’s answer amazed him. Although that smile that Eugene gave to the camera went he left from Negan’s side made me think that he has a plan to destroy them from the inside… ( you smart boy ) or he is indeed “Negan” ( we’ll see ). Rick and Michonne ( aren’t adorable together? ) found guns but the leader of the group that I told you before said to them that they aren’t enough ( really lady? ). Rosita and Sasha take the decision to go and kill Negan and the result of that is for Sasha to be imprisoned. Tasa tells the truth to the others about the Oceanside (? not sure that this is the name ) and they went to take the weapons. Eugene being an ass, sorry, being “Negan” tells Sasha to join them but when she asked him to help her kill herself he gave her one of the pills that he made. Back to Alexandria, Rosita informs the others about Sasha and a visitor. Dwight wants to help them ( I hope that he’s telling the truth ). Well, Dwight really wanted to help them but that bitch that Rick made the deal with her betrayed them. Sasha killed herself and a l m o s t took Negan with her. Ezekiel and Maggie, both with armed people, came to the rescue and Alexandria didn’t fall today. ( what a great season!! )

The walking dead ( season 8 ) ** season finale **
So, the war began. And we have the chance to see an older Rick, living happily with Carl, Judith and Michonne ( Marilita is really confused here ). Negan is still alive ( God help me ) and now Gabriel is trapped with him. So… we lost most of Ezekiel’s people and Shiva ( crying forever ). Rick went back to Jadis ( that bitch that betrayed them ) but she locked him on a container ( without clothes ), what the Hell lady? At the same time, Maggie keeps Negan’s men in a prison that they made in Hilltop. Carl on the other hand, not listening to his father, helps out a guy who introduced himself as Siddiq and wants to bring him with him in Alexandria ( you better be a nice person, do you hear me, young man? ). Rick escaped and Jadis agreed to join them, but at the same time Tara and Daryl with Morgan and some other, let the zombies go into Negan’s building and eat everyone ( not a smart move people… ). Well… The Saviors got out ( surprise – surprise ) but it was Eugene’s help and not Daryl and Tara’s plan. That had as a result for The Kingdom, Hilltop and Alexandria to fall. Especially in Alexandria, they destroy it completely. Carl offered himself to Negan but he didn’t accept. He bought time for his people to find shelter though. Dwight helped Daryl and the others to kill some Saviors but one of them escaped so he can’t go back. Ezekiel saved his people by staying behind and lock The Saviors inside the Kingdom. The most depressing thing ever happened. We saw that Carl had bitten by a walker ( my poor little hero ) and he died after he said his goodbyes to his family ( I cried so damn much ). Carol with Morgan saved Ezekiel and Daryl lead their people to find shelter to Hilltop. Dwight saves them when Negan’s people almost find them ( this over here people is a great character development ) and having no choice returns back to Negan. Gabriel and the doctor, after Eugene let them go, get captured again and doc kills himself ( what an idiot ). Everyone else made it to Hilltop and telling them the news about Alexandria and Carl. Maggie decides to let the prisoners in pairs out in order to help them with everything to have been done on the fields or everywhere else. Negan on the other hand, orders Eugene to make bullets, lots of them, and gives him Alexandria making him leader there ( for real now, I have no idea what’s going on with this guy. If I was he, I would make bullets and I’d give to Rick everything ). Well, first of all, let’s talk about how idiot is Simon. Negan is a dick, we all know that ( Jeffrey Dean Morgan we love you man ) but he has a plan and it works ( most of the times ). But Simon? Simon is a total ass who just want to kill everyone that he doesn’t like. In other news, Maggie made a deal with a woman who gave her a book full of instructions to build windmills and stuff like that ( I’m gonna cry from happiness, but who the hell is she? ) the same time that Rick and Negan fight each other and Rick burns Lucille in front of him ( oh boy ) but well, you know Lucille. She’s fine. Do you remember Jadis? Well, she came back and took Negan ( oops ). The Saviors went to Hilltop with their weapons infected and every person that they cut turned in the middle of the night. They lost a lot of people but I think that was the price for Maggie to start thinking differently. Rick, after he read Carl’s letter, start having second thoughts about the whole situation. Simon with some other people want to kill Negan but Dwight tells him the truth because he knows that Simon is worst than him. He uses Gabriel to send a map with Negan’s plan back to Hilltop but this plan is only a trap because Negan knows that he is not on his side anymore. Michonne reads Carl’s letter, in which he asks him to make peace with his dad, to Negan but he refuses to hear any of Carl’s advice. The same time Eugene, who escapes from Rozita and Daryl, takes Negan’s orders to make bullets. Lots of them! ( Come on Eugene, it’s not too late to help your friends ). What a finale! I hoped that Eugene will help them, in the end, I was so damn right! That boy destroyed the Saviors (well done dude, well done ). Rick almost killed Negan but he asked Siddiq ( who he is a doctor ) to save his life. Maggie with some others pissed off but decided to let it pass for now until to be ready and strong again. The season finale left with everyone starting over, even Negan, ( I hope that he has a window to his sell to watching outside the others thrive ) and starting exchanging things.

Before you go, I wanna ask you for a huge “sorry and thank you” if you read the whole post because it’s really long. Well, in my defence, I had to catch up on 1.5 seasons of the walking dead so… And something else, I want to say a huge thank you to my friend Evi from Series Division ( give her a like and a subscribe people ) because I was texting her all the time my fangirling reactions for the episodes and she didn’t block me. ( friendship goals people ).

In summer I finished Gilmore Girls ( I’m working on a blog post ), I started Castle Rock and also I started a marathon on Heroes.

I also watched: The Punisher ( 1×10 – 1×13 ), A discovery of witches ( 1×02 ).

  1. Μόλις έβαζα να δω ” a discovery of witches ” και είδα το post σου, διάβασα και τώρα έχω καποιον ένα ενδιασμό! Ας δω λοιπόν αλλο ένα επεισόδιο από Grace & Frankie και θα αποφασίσω αργότερα!

    1. Η αλήθεια είναι ότι και το δεύτερο που είδα ήταν λίγο χλιαρό… αλλά από το trailer του τρίτου επεισοδίου όμως ένιωσα ένα vibe ότι φτιάχνει.

      1. καλά θ’αφήσω να βγουν 4-5 και θα τα δω μαζεμένα, για να δω τι παίζει!!! αλλιώς i’ll take it of my calendar και δεν έγινε και τπτ!! χα0χ0α μια λιγότερη!

        1. χαχαχαχα καλά ναι… εγώ για τον Goode την βλέπω έτσι και αλλιώς. Απλά ελπίζω να φτιάξει γιατί έχει δυνατότητες.
