Overview As people start getting attached to Carter, she finds herself making some feel pushed away. Perhaps for good reason. Review (with Spoilers) There is such an odd complexity to this show, if just because like Switched at Birth on ABC Family, there are very few people who you can see rooting for, and justifying…
Overview Lose a daughter, find a stranger Review (with Spoilers) As you can imagine, finding a Skins alumni on a new show is a big deal. Especially when it was one of the actors who played one of your favorite characters. So imagine MTV, who really are improving with the shows they green light, hiring…
Overview As David Whele pushes to create a power struggle in Vega, Alex takes a walk down memory lane Review (with Spoilers) Even after watching Legion I still am sort of iffy on this show, but don’t necessarily think it is bad. It sort of reminds me of the odd sci-fi shows of the late…
Overview As word of Alex being the chosen one gets downplayed by the big names in Vega, Gabriel seems to be the only one to take this reveal seriously. Review (with Spoilers) At this point I think angels are basically being used, as well as a concept of god taking a vacation, in a slightly…
Overview A reminder that all demons were once angels. Review (with Spoilers) I should probably begin by saying I did not watch Legion prior to seeing this, but will likely soon so I have a full grasp on what is happening. For, as of the pilot, I am finding this show a tad bit odd…
Overview Welcome to the end of an era, and the start of something likely less stable. Review (with Spoilers) After so many beloved characters dying this season, it makes even the series changing one which comes in the finale something which you hunch your shoulders at. But, with us getting in touch with most of…
Overview After “A Whole Other Hole” you may have wanted Rosa’s backstory, well here it is. Review (with Spoilers) Because Rosa has always been the sick one in the background during the first season, I never took much note of her. She was just there like an extra. This episode though made her become one…
Overview The season finale mostly gives you what you expect to happen, with little to no surprises. Review (with Spoilers) 13 episodes over one weekend. The backstories of Taystee, Poussey, Vee, Suzzane, Red, Rosa and Gloria, as well as others who really weren’t that interesting. But, even with Sophia being largely absent, these women really…
Overview We’ve almost reached the end of the line and if there is one thing that should be noted in this episode: Never, ever, trust Vee. Review (with Spoilers) As you can tell by now, Vee pretty much took whatever significance Sophia had, among others, and damn near stole the season. Arguably she is only…
Overview When people don’t show humility, bad things happen. Which even when you pray, sometimes can’t be avoided. Review (with Spoilers) If you recall season 1, the reason why the girls all came together, despite racial differences, was because Mendez was such a bully that he had to go. But, one thing they couldn’t do…
Overview With a 2nd Piper episode comes a rehash on her relationship with Alex, but luckily the episode is saved by Red and Vee’s continuing issues. Review (with Spoilers) I can honestly say that if it wasn’t for Vee and Red’s little back and forth, and all the people they bring into their drama, this…
Overview Another episode which may feature one character, Red in particular, but Vee finds some way to make sure she shares the spotlight. Review (with Spoilers) With Mendez’s return you probably expect him to cause a lot of BS, but in fact it is Bennett that causes issues. But, for the most part, the focus…
Overview Black Cindy is the focus of the episode, as is Red’s resurgence and Vee’s new booming business. Review (with Spoilers) In “Comic Sans” there is a strong focus on everyone trying to find some way to cope and deal with their situation the best they can. For some, like Cindy, it is with laughter;…
Overview With the focus being on Valentine’s Day and Poussey, we witness love and its complications. Review (with Spoilers) With many prisoners leaving lovers behind, it makes Valentine’s day a bit of an awful holiday. But while the prisoners surely hate the day, so do the staff as well. They feel just as much prisoners…
Overview As racial divides worsen, so does the overall condition of the prison. Review (with Spoilers) I am 5 episodes into this marathon and still haven’t gotten bored. Though I must admit I find it so odd how Sophia has been virtually absent on the show, especially considering Laverne Cox’s profile probably benefitted the most…
Overview We discover the truth about Christopher as Red seeks to reestablish herself, as does Vee. Review (with Spoilers) I don’t know why I don’t remember season 1 having this format of which it features one specific character as everything else goes on. Be it because the featured characters of season 1 appealed more to…
Overview An explanation on why Suzanne (Crazy Eyes) has such a thing for Piper, as well as us seeing Vee become the mother to all the Black girls. Review (with Spoilers) Seemingly with Lorraine Touissant joining the show, she isn’t going to be treated as just a guest star. As of this episode she pretty…
Overview Imagine you just hit 24, survived your dad passing on, finally am getting somewhere with your career and personal life, and then find out you have cancer. Review (with Spoilers) When it comes to ABC Family you can always expect diversity. Whether it is a program featuring deaf teenagers, those who were in the…
Overview We move from focusing on Piper to Taystee and get to see her life before prison. Review (with Spoilers) After a rather dull episode watching Piper go through her usual fish out of water issues, we are back with the old crew and catching up. Though, for the most part, the focus is on…
Overview With 95% of season 1’s cast nowhere to be seen, we are stuck with Piper, Alex, and the type of characters which bring 0 interest. Review (with Spoilers) To me, if you never saw the first season and wanted to see what the hype was all about, this episode would make you think this…
Overview The Wildlings, and allies, have made it to the wall and for the entire episode we are left wondering who is going to die. Review (with Spoilers) Though people die damn near every episode of Game of Thrones, it is rare that it is because of a full on faction vs. faction battle. But…
Overview In another emotionally draining episode, we get quite a performance from many of the actors, as we mark another character’s death. Review (with Spoilers) I love and hate this show. I love it because the characters all have such potential, and sometimes it is realized, but I hate this show since anyone is eligible…
Overview Despite all Jenna has been going through, her future seems to have gotten a bit brighter with the prospect of college.
Overview In a school where you have to stand out to fit in, two girls decide the best way to stand out is to be lesbians. Review (with Spoilers) As MTV continues to try to harness the sometimes raunchy, and often unfiltered, personas of their reality TV stars into scripted series, thus comes Faking It….
Overview New alliances are formed, others strengthened, but being this is Game of Thrones there is always someone willing, and ready, to backstab. Review (with Spoilers) As we creep further and further toward the finale, you are left wondering if The Purple Wedding will be the sole big event of the season. Well, from what…
Overview Despite senior status, some old issues from sophomore, and junior, year still haunt Jenna.
Overview After two or three somber episodes, we get a taste of what made this show popular, and promises of resurgence. Review (with Spoilers) I find it unfortunate, as a fan, that when the show opts to develop characters, further storylines, and actually focus on something besides sex and violence, I get a tad bored…
Overview In a rather mundane episode, politics are a bigger focus than battle. But just to keep those with a bloodlust interested, there is one decent one to satisfy ye. Review (with Spoilers) I’m not fully sure, due to my memory, whether past season of Game of Thrones were more exciting, or if just the…
Overview If you think Jenna didn’t suffer enough from her rebellion period, well think again. Review (with Spoilers) Awkward returns and everyone is feeling senior anxiety. The pressure of going to college is upon everyone, Tamara is freaking herself out trying to keep her life to some strict schedule, and Jenna is just trying to…
Overview The show finally decides to live up to its name. Review (with Spoilers) Call this episode a last minute fix for the ho-hum nature of Twisted has just gotten violently shook up, and while some parts of the shakeup admittedly feels a little forced, and sort of campy, perhaps it can be retooled so…
Overview As things cool down after Joffrey’s wedding, many are ready to build up to the next big event. Review (with Spoilers) Seemingly, despite the various media articles about last week’s rape scene, there isn’t much sign that what we may perceive as rape, will be treated as rape. Besides that, there isn’t anything big…
Overview With Joffrey’s death, and many on their way to claim the throne, there becomes a question of whether peace will ever enter Westeros and stay? Trigger Warning(s): Rape Scene Review (with Spoilers) Unlike the Red Wedding, and the death of Eddard Stark, there isn’t a large amount of tears and people wandering about over…
Overview With the war for King’s Landing, seemingly, over, all eyes are on the wedding. Review (with Spoilers) This is the type of episode which makes you want to read the books, just so you can be ahead of the game. And though, supposedly, the writers are going to twist things to keep those who…
Overview The show returns with many having distrust in each other, with most of it naturally warranted. Review (with Spoilers) Eventually I do plan to read the books, because so much happens in just one episode, that it is hard to even fathom what may have been cut out. That aside, most of the favorites…
Overview Get to know the girls of Girls United. Trigger Warning(s): Various conversations about such things as cutting, rape and other issues. Review (with Spoilers) Being that one of the most interesting aspects of the second half of the first season is the girls of Girls United, it is hard to not take interest in this…
Overview And so, it comes to an end. Review (with Spoilers) The 7 wonders are performed with very little in the way of outside distractions. Well, with the exception of a visit from Stevie Nicks singing before the competition. But, despite the crowning of a new supreme, there are remnants of the old one still…
Overview It may not be Christmas at Downton, but with Rose’s Ball being the focus the only difference really is an exchange of presents. But, as with all things Rose, drama is all around. Review (with Spoilers) It has only been a few months since the last episode, and it is one month before this…
As Jenna is asked who she wants to be, she looks around her and finds the answer.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
