WARNING: Contains Spoilers! 

This post contains my recap of The Vampire Diaries "Do Not Go Gentle" episode...

This is not a courtroom

In a homage to Law & Order, the study group investigate a crime when someone sabotages their science experiment. When they discover the perp, Annie plans on prosecuting them to the fullest extent of Greendale's Code of Conduct. 

Community has done it again! The NBC sitcom, which is currently in the bubble,  had another pop culture parody centered episode - in this case, Law and Order. "Basic Lupine and Urology" is just like the previous episodes of Community such "Modern Warfare" and "Pillows and Blankets" wherein the entire episode mocks another show or referenced some well known movies. 

Niki's Wrath

Maggie Q as NIKITA

The newest episode of NIKITA - 2x19 "Wrath" - proves why I love this spy drama from The CW. Before I give my comments about this amazing episode and the excellent performance of the actors especially Q's, here's a good synopsis from Laura Prudom of the Huffingtonpost.com:

Without revealing too much about the episode's twists, the plot concerns a man that Nikita brought down five years earlier, an arms dealer named Nicholas Brandt (Rick Ravanello), who has spent his time incarcerated sharpening the ax he has to grind against her. Nikita's former boss, Percy (Xander Berkeley), decides to spring Brandt from his Guantanamo-esque prison, offering him revenge against Nikita in exchange for a dangerous weapon. Naturally, after five years, Brandt has some fairly colorful ideas about how to get even with Nikita, but the brilliance of this episode is less in its concept and more in its execution.

Fans of the show all over the world, including me, have been campaigning for an Emmy nomination for Maggie Q eversince the first season of the show last year. After this episode, my heart flutters as my aspirations for a nomination for the actress erupted once again. Just a few weeks/months ago, I've posted that I am quite dissapointed with how the show is going - that it's becoming too complicated. Well, this episode reclaims everything I said before. "Wrath" proves why I love Nikita so much - the show and the character. We've seen another side of Nikita that we thought did not exist. Her "evil" side which she kept on telling herself that is already gone came back as this Brandt tortures her and makes her remember what she did to him before. 

I'm the Good Twin

It was all just a dream :(

The CW's RINGER, featuring Sarah Michelle Gellar, aired its season finale episode 2 days ago. The said show is currently "on a bubble" since its future is still in danger - whether the network would give it a second season. 

Brief synopsis: 

Bridget Kelly (Sarah Michelle Gellar) is a recovering drug addict and stripper in Wyoming. She is under the protection of FBI Agent Victor Machado (Nestor Carbonell), having agreed to testify against her employer, local crime boss Bodaway Macawi (Zahn McClarnon), whom she witnessed commit murder. Fearing that Macawi, who has already murdered several witnesses linking him to previous crimes, will also kill her, Bridget flees to New York to meet her estranged twin sister Siobhan (also played by Gellar).

Soon after arriving in New York, Siobhan, who had kept her sister's existence secret from her family, appears to commit suicide by jumping into the ocean. Bridget then assumes Siobhan's identity and tries to fit in among Siobhan's wealthy social circle, including Siobhan's husband Andrew (Ioan Gruffud), stepdaughter Juliet (Zoey Deutch), best friend Gemma (Tara Summers), and Gemma's husband Henry (Kristoffer Polaha) with whom Siobhan had been having an affair. The only one who knows that Bridget is passing as Siobhan is Bridget's Narcotics Anonymous sponsor Malcolm (Mike Colter). Bridget's life becomes more complicated as she discovers that her sister was hiding secrets of her own and that someone is trying to kill Siobhan as well. Little did Bridget know that her twin sister is still alive.

American Idol: Best Season So Far?

This season of American Idol is one of the show's best. The contestants are all amazing and talented. I haven't been interested in the show since season 5. It's already in the point wherein you just want to watch these kids compete and sing their hearts out every week, that will eventually lead to the Grand Finale on May.

Now that only 7 of them are left, here is my Top 4 Idols.

My AMERICAN IDOL is: *drumroll*

Saturday Night Fever

Saturday Night Live has been on air for almost 37 years, every Saturday night on NBC. On its current season, I just wanna point out an obvious line dividing the casts. Let's just call it the "Old Ones" and the "New Ones".

SNL: Sofia Vergara and One Direction

Sofia Vergara

One Direction

Saturday Night Live with host Modern Family's Sofia Vergara and musical guest One Direction is the season's one of the best episodes so far (alongside with Maya Rudolph's and Jimmy Fallon's episodes). Surprisingly, Vergara did an amazing job. Despite some minor mistakes and her thick accent, Sofia performed really well during the episode. Also, the musical guest - British pop group One Direction - performed two of their hit songs like pros. I can say that I'm a fan now! 

There are also quite a few parody "commercials" on the episode. One of which is the Almost Pizza that made me laugh so hard. Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader are my favorite combos in the show so everytime they have a sketch together, eventhough it is not that funny, they can still make it laughable.  

The "Just Friends" pants featuring Andy and Jason are also funny.

The Game of Too Many Kings + a Queen

April 1. The return of one of HBO's most successful series, the critically acclaimed Game of Thrones. The series is based on George R.R. Martin's books "A Song of Ice and Fire". This broad and complex series tells the story of different people of Westeros - a fictional country - fighting for the Iron Throne (to be the King of all seven kingdoms). Well, I guess that's the summary of GOT in one, very vague, sentence.

Season 2 started where its predecessor almost left off. 

 - In Kingslanding, and the one sitting in the Iron Throne - Joffrey Baratheon, the incest and secret son of Cersei and Jaime Lannister, but many people know him as the true heir of the throne since his "father" is the former king Robert Baratheon.

- In Dragonstone, we have Stannis Baratheon. The Rightful King (well, at least for me). Since Joffrey is not the true son of Robert, the former king's older brother must be the heir of the Iron Throne. 

- In the North, we have Robb Stark. After the beheading of his father - Lord Ned Stark - by Joffrey for "treason", Robb and the people of the North decided to be independent from the entire Westeros by forming their own kingdom. 

- In the... somewhere outside Westeros, we have Daenerys Targaryen, the mother of the Dragons, the last descendants of the Targaryens - the family in the Iron Throne before Robert became king. Her story is so complicated so I'm not gonna go to the details. Since she's a Targaryen, she believes that she must be sitting in the Iron Throne just like her ascendants. With the help of her 3 newly born dragons, and the people of her khalasar, she will rightfully claim what is hers.

- In Storm's End, we have Renly Baratheon - the youngest brother of Robert and Stannis. After the death of his brother Robert, he believes that he must be the king. Well.. he's stupid. 

-In Iron Islands, we have Balon Greyjoy. He's really not a major character so I can't say anything about him. We'll see in the next episodes.
