The Flash | Season 5 Episode 7 - "O Come, All Ye Thankful"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello guys!

So, here I am with the new The Flash rant.

This episode wasn't my favorite, I have to be honest. There was some cool moments in it and I liked the way they are approaching the Cicada story-line, but there wasn't anything that special that could make me love this episode so... This was just a good episode.

The episode actually began with the team going to the hospital where Cicada's niece is, trying to discover his identity. Actually, this is something that we get more into in the flashbacks but, for some reason, I didn't realize she was his nice. I always thought she was his daughter so this was a big revelation for me. Oh, and since we are already in that topic, yes, this episode had a lot of flashbacks of Cicada's past and how he got responsible for his niece.

This was actually something that, in a way, I kind of enjoyed because flashbacks isn't really a thing that The Flash does, and even less flashbacks about the main villain so... In that way, I liked it, but the actual story... It fell a little short for me. But let's roll with it.

After that moment in the hospital, the team actually have to deal with a new 'villain of the week', to which Barry and Nora run to stop a lightning disaster, ending with Barry getting struck and almost dying. Luckily, Nora is able to restart his heart, which as an huge relief, because I really got scared in that moment. I mean, I knew they wouldn't kill off Barry, not without saying something about Grant leaving the show (which wouldn't be The Flash anymore, to be honest) but you never know what the writers are thinking so... Anything can happen.

Then, after that incident in which Barry almost dies, Nora gets back to being the little brat that she is, telling Barry that one way to ensure he never disappears in the future is to quit being Flash now.

Moving on... The team ends up finding the person behind all the weather madness - Joss Mardon - the daughter of Mark Mardon, the Weather Wizard. Turns out Joss also has a similar staff that she used to control the weather, a staff with a piece with dark matter, just like the phone from the other episode.
As you can expect, the team goes to fight her, with Iris using a hologram to simulate Mardon (her father) being there, but Joss tries to kill him for being neglectful and that's when the plan goes to sh*t.
Post this, mad that they didn't bring her her father, Joss tries to attack an airport and creates a lightning tornado. Nora brings Barry Mardon's wand which Barry uses to absorb Joss' lightning and subdue her. And that's how the main events of the episode end.
My favorite part of the episode, though, was when Caitlin, Cisco and Sherloque choose not to join the West Allens for Thanksgiving and, suddenly, Killer Frost appears and gives them a piece of truth, which was pretty funny, in my opinion. (Also, Danielle Panabaker RTed my tweet but then she UN-RTed it, which was a bummer...)
Oh, and in the very end of the episode, the Team finally discovers Cicada's identity through the security cameras from the hospital! Seriously, this season have been a surprise with this new villain! Not only he's not a speedster (almost not even a meta) but they discovered his really identity pretty early in the season, which is something totally different so I'm really curious to see where this goes.
Post this, let me know all your thoughts and predictions for the next episode. Also, we are getting pretty close to the crossover! So excited!
Until then, I'll see you Friday with a new Supernatural rant!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Final Reckoning | Season 32 Episode 21 - "Final Reckoning Reunion, Part 1"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

So, here we are to spill all the beans about the latest season of The Challenge (or not).

I have to say that I was quite excited about this reunion. I don't normally care much for the reunion episodes, I just think they are a bit boring and don't really offer much, but this time there was so much drama and things going on between all the contestants that I was really curious how things were between all of them. Well, in reality, this was more of the same. Truth is this reunion (at least, this first part) just replayed some of the most dramatic events and didn't offer much more, but let's see what can we talk about.

The first thing mentioned in this episode was Ashley and Hunter winning and Ashley keeping the money to herself. This was expected because, although this wasn't something new, nor it wasn't expected, it's something that doesn't happen that often so, we needed to talk about this.

We learned that Hunter has already 'forgiven' Ashley and that Bananas' can't really blame her for taking the money. Apart from that, everyone seems to be pretty 'pissed' with her and I don't know if many of them are still friends with her (Amanda sure is, from what we've seen).

Then, we saw some minor dramas such as the Lavender Ladies thing, the thing between Shane and Da'Vonne, Natalie and Kayleigh's fight... More of the same.

Next topic was also more of the same - Kyle and his hook ups - but with this subject it looks like we reached an ending, with Cara Maria already over him, Kyle being 'okay' and clearly over all the girls that he slept with as well as the other girls being over him.

They also talked about the issue between Cory and Tony, which sent Cory and Devin home. It looks like this issue is also settled down though. The issue that isn't is the one between Devin and Bananas, and that's how the episode ends. We see Devin going at Bananas (as he usually does) and we can clearly see here the age difference and the maturity, because Devin keeps going at him and Bananas' just let's him talk and just answers him when Devin's rant is over. Anyway, in the very end of the episode Devin really goes to Bananas' to fight him or something and that's how the episode ends.

As you can see, this episode didn't add much to the whole 'story'. However, I do recommend you guys check out AfterBuzzTV's After Show of episode 20 where they had Marie as a guest and who spilled out a lot more stuff than they did in this reunion so, check it out!

Anyway, let me know all your thoughts and I'll see you later with the The Flash rant!

Love,

Daniela.

Arrow | Season 7 Episode 7 - "The Slabside Redemption"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

(Just a little side note, I'm sorry I'm posting this a bit late. I went to the Robin Hood movie anticipated showing and then I was watching The Flash live so... Yeah. Apologies made, let's get to the actual rant.)

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! This was an hell of an episode! Seriously, this must have been the best episode of the season so far! I might get a little ahead of myself but I loved it and I'm just going to say why I loved it! For starters, there was no bullsh*t story-lines. The went straight to the point, focusing on what really mattered at this point, which was Oliver and Diaz (basically), it also had amazing camera work, amazing fight scenes (probably the best ones of the whole series) and it gave us an amazing set up for the new villain of the season because, yes, we finally got rid of Diaz! I was getting so tired of him and the fact the we are finally done with him just makes me really happy, which is also one of the reasons why I loved this episode. Now that I said everything that I loved, let's get into what really happened in the episode.

So, as I said, this episode was all about Oliver and, because of that, it was all set in the prison, which was something that I liked, surprisingly. We begin the episode with Oliver revealing that he knows that Stanley manipulated him into framing Turner for Dunbar's murder, which makes then Oliver go to Turner and apologize. 

We then see the second main guy of this episode, Diaz, arriving to the prison but, as you can guess, having some guards in his palm and just getting free. But instead of just leaving, he decides to (kind of) man up and just face Oliver. So he visits Oliver and threatens to kill him and his family which drives Oliver mad forcing the guards to take him back to his cell. 

Knowing that Diaz is still loose inside the prison, Oliver breaks out of his cell and confronts security guards and escapes level one to go after Diaz.

Meanwhile, Diaz kills some guards, sets free some inmates and, as you can imagine, a lot goes to sh*t. 

Oliver's search for Diaz is then interrupted by Sampson and Brick who confront Oliver but that's when Turner appears and basically saves Oliver. Both of them, Oliver and Turner, start working on a plan to get help but, when Oliver tries to contact someone, Diaz taunts him saying that there's no way to contact anyone. This makes Oliver even more pissed off and that's when sh*t really goes down.

Diaz sets up some type of bomb that creates a fire, frees all the inmates and a riot just starts inside the prison.

In between all of this, while Oliver is trying to execute a plan to finally take down Diaz, Stanley kidnaps Oliver and that's when we really see Stanley's true colors and how crazy he is (like, seriously crazy). But, as you can expect, Oliver gets free and returns to Turner to keep going with the plan. And that's when the final showdown between Oliver and Diaz finally happens!

It's long waited but it was really worth it! Amazing camera work and just amazing stunts! So good! And yes, in the very end, Oliver stabs Diaz, while inside his cell, and just locks him up. I didn't really see if he died or if he's just gonna rot in there but, either way, I'm glad he's over! He was really getting on my nerves and, to be honest, Stanley looks like a more interesting villain so... Let's see.

Oh, and talking about Stanley... While this is happening, elsewhere in the prison, Stanley kills Brick and escapes. So, it's going to be interesting.

In the very end of the episode, Oliver is finally set free and we have the Olicity reunion that we've been waiting for (with Diggle in the mix, as well).

As I said before, this was an amazing episode! I can't really see anything wrong with it. And, I was kind of right. I said since the beginning that Oliver was going to be out by episode 6... It was in episode 7 but, I was close.

Anyway, I can't wait to see what the rest of the season brings and I truly hope they make Stanley the new villain because I'm really interested in knowing more about him. He looks just like really insane and not one of those bad guys that just want to rule the world so... Let's see.

Let me know all your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you tomorrow with new The Challenge and The Flash rants!

Love,

Daniela.

The Challenge: Final Reckoning | Season 32 Episode 20 - "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello people!

As promised here I am with the 'final' The Challenge rant (not really the final because there's still two Reunion episodes, but yeah...).

Was it just me or this episode was a really 'let down'?! I don't know, but I felt like this was really rushed and created basically no suspense. Right from the beginning you knew who weren't going to make it and then... There was not really a surprise in the end so... I don't know, I felt like this was a really poor finale and the final challenge was also pretty lame, in my opinion, one of the easiest. To me, it felt like they were getting tired of this season so they just wanted it to be over so they  came up with something last minute and this was what they manged.

So, right away, the first part of the final challenge was so lame. They just had to go down a ladder, from an helicopter and... that was it. That was the challenge. Of course there's some type of 'difficulty' in this but.. C'mon! It's the challenge! You should've came up with something better... Anyway, the next part might be harder...

Well... Yes and no. They had to run quite a bit, which is usual on The Challenge, and I like those type of endurance challenges but... It was only 3 miles and that's not that hard. My dad runs way more than that on a daily basis so... It's not that hard. At least, not for the challenge. Oh, but I forgot to tell you, there's also Grenades in this challenge, and the teams can use them at any point, but they can only use them once in only one team. So far, no team used them.

Next part of the challenge - standing on a thing. Once again, a The Challenge specialty that I quite enjoyed but, right away, Cara Maria and Marie fell from that thing and it was over for them. It was in that moment that I knew they weren't going to win. Because they were the first ones to fall, they got a 20 minute penalty so... Yeah, there was no way they were going to win. After them, a long time passed and it was because of a deal with Paulie and Natalie that Joss and Sylvia fell, followed right away by Ashley and Hunter, making Paulie and Natalie the ones without any time penalty (Ashley/Hunter got 2.5 and Joss/Sylvia 10, if I'm not mistaken).

After that, it was time for an eating challenge - probably the hardest. I can't remember that well this challenge, I just know that Ashley and Hunter decided to use their grenade on Sylvia and Joss, which left Sylvia really pissed because of all the Lavender Ladies thing, and in the end Hunter and Ashley won that round. 

And so, there was only two last challenges. Running to a cave (which, once again, wasn't that big of a run) and then walk on hot stones. In the first challenge, Joss and Sylvia decided to use the grenade on Ashley and Hunter and then, in the last challenge, Paulie and Natalie used the grenade on Joss and Sylvia, even though they made a deal with them, and Cara Maria and Marie didn't use their at all because they couldn't come to an agreement on the team to use it on. And that was it.

Right away we found out who was fourth place which wasn't that hard to guess - Cara Maria and Marie. It was already really good that they got this far but, unlike other Seasons, in this one only they first place gets money so... Getting to the final isn't that much this time. Then, 3rd place went to Paulie and Natalie. I don't really know what to say about them. Maybe just that Karma is a b*tch and they kind of got what they deserved. And so, it was between Joss and Sylvia, and Ashley and Hunter and, to be honest, even though I wanted Cara Maria and Marie to win, the truth is, Joss and Sylvia really deserved it, mainly Joss. He's a really put together guy and, if you think about it, he never created drama and he always did well on challenges so. I kind of wish they would've won but... No, Ashley and Hunter won... 

I got really pissed with that because they weren't even in the game from the beginning! They shouldn't even be there so it really pisses me off. But this wasn't the end. We still had to know who got the better time out of those two and if that person decides to share the money or not. And so, we find out that Ashley got the better time and right away I knew she wasn't going to split the money. And she didn't. I can't say I was surprised because I wasn't. Not only Ashley is really selfish, but she and Hunter hate each other so there was no way they were going to split the money. At least, not if the decision was on Ashley's hands, which it was. 

And yes... In the end Ashley got million dollars all for herself, Hunter got really pissed with her, as he should, Sylvia and Joss got really sad they, if it wasn't for that last grenade, they might have actually won and Cara Maria and Marie got back to being vendettas and hating each other.

I'm really curious to see what goes down in the Reunion because I really feel like there's so much tea to spill about this season!

So, let me know all your thoughts on this finale. Were you happy that Ashley and Hunter won? Did you agree with Ashley's decision? Tell me everything!

I'll see you guys in my next rant!

Love,

Daniela.

The Flash | Season 5 Episode 6 - "The Icicle Cometh"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello guys!

First of all, I'm sorry I took way too long with this update. I was just kind of sick this past two days and I just couldn't post. But now I'm feeling better so let's talk about this really exciting The Flash episode!

Although I was starting to get sick, I managed to watch this episode live and, like I said, I really enjoyed it! This had everything that I like on The Flash and, most of all, this brought character development to so many characters, which I appreciate!

So, this episode was basically all about Caitlin and her father. We start with Barry, Cisco and Caitlin going to Caitlin's father location and finding him, and then bringing him to Star Labs.

Meanwhile, we have two teams searching for Cicada - Ralph and Cecile, and Iris, Nora and Sherloque. The first team was my favorite, to be honest, but I'm a bit bias because I just love Ralph, even though, Cecile was really the one who stole the show with all her 'powers' and stuff. I really liked the story-line between those two in this episode.

Anyway, back in Star Labs, Caitlin decides to run some tests on her father, Thomas, but then decides that it's best to go for a walk and just try to reconnect. That's in that walk that Thomas faints and his arm starts turning into ice. Caitlin takes her father back to Star Labs where he reveals the origin of Caitlin's powers. After that, Cisco senses something fishy in all this so he teleports back to Thomas' base and finds out that Thomas isn't really Caitlin's father. As you can imagine, Caitlin doesn't believe it. That's until Thomas' alter ego "Icicle" takes over him , and that's when Caitlin finds out the truth.
Obviously, after that, Team Flash have to do something about him but it turns out harder then they thought. That's when Killer Frost returns and defeats Icicle. After that, it is also reveled that DeVoe used Brainstorm's powers and that they were the cause of Killer Frost's disappearance.
And well, in the very end, we see a bit of Cicada and we discover that he's injured and sick.
That was the episode.
It looks like really simple but sometimes simple is good. The truth is, there was actually four different things happening in this episode, but the main 'event' was Caitlin, her father and the return of Killer Frost, and that kept the story going. Also, we found out more about Cicada and Ralph and Cecile's hunt really turned into something and they already have a name so, they are pretty close to finding him, which is new, they never do it this soon so... I'm excited to see where this is going.
Until then, let me know all your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you in a minute with a new The Challenge rant (which I also owe you).
Love,
Daniela.

Arrow | Season 7 Episode 6 - "Due Process"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

Here I am, one more week, with a brand new Arrow rant - and what an episode!

This must have been the episode where I felt more compelled to the story and probably my favorite so far! I feel like everything in this episode was important, made sense to the story and, more important, kept it going, which is what I appreciate the most. I hate when episode are just basically 'fillers' and they don't add that much to the story, and this didn't have anything like that and for that I'm grateful! Oh, something else that I'm really grateful for, and I'm going to say this right away, We finally got Ricardo Diaz! It was about time! (I know that in the preview we see him breaking into the prison which kind of means that he didn't go there but anyway, what means is that we got him and I'm so happy for that).

Okay, now that I let out all of my excitement, let's talk, in depth, about all the stuff that I really enjoyed about this episode (which was everything, just so you know).

We saw in the very end of the last episode Diaz approaching Anatoly, and that's exactly how this episode begins. We see Anatoly being confronted and tortured by Diaz and we also learn that Diaz had killed all of the Bratva.

From that, we see Felicity and Black Siren finding where Diaz is and they waste no time going after him and later having Rene joining them. When they get to the place where Diaz was, they don't find him but instead, they find Anatoly, right before ARGUS comes in and finds all of them. That's when all of them get together (Felicity, Rene, Dinah, Diggle and Curtis) to investigate Bratva's slaughter.

The team discovers Diaz and the Longbow Hunters are planning to level the city with pipe bombs and so, as we can expect, they go and try to stop them, and that's when, with the help of the new Green Arrow (which now you can clearly see it's a woman) they manage to capture Diaz, but the Longbow Hunters get away.

While this is happening, Black Siren visits Oliver at Slabside who insists on helping Oliver in becoming a free man, even with Oliver rejecting her help. She later tries to get his sentence appealed in court but the judge denies it. That's when she decides to take measure into her own hands and tries to kill the judge. Luckily, Dinah appears and, having heard Black Siren's testimony and now believe she has changed, is able to persuade her not to kill the judge.

But these were not the only two things happening in this episode. Also while everyone handled their own problems, Oliver was also handling some in prison.

Turns out his new best friend, Stanley, gets sent to the hallway for being framed for murder, which Oliver starts investigating. Oliver finds out Turner was the suspect and is sent away and in return, Stanley is set free, only to leave Oliver wandering about Stanley's true intentions after Stanley inadvertently revealing that he knew it was Turner's knife that was used in the murder.

Then, after basically everything is over, Felicity visits Diaz at the SCPD and plans to shoot him, but that's when Black Siren appears and tells her that she made a trade with the FBI to free Oliver in exchange for Oliver's cooperation in Diaz' prosecution.

And, because what was left to make this episode even better where some flash-forward, which we got!

This time we see William, Roy, Dinah and Zoe pass several checkpoints set by Felicity (or so we think) while William and Roy learn that Felicity became a criminal, taking on her father's mantel as the Calculator. We also see that Felicity had hidden some plans for Star City to be leveled, just like what Diaz' was trying to do in present day.

The flash-forward got really confusing to me in this episode. I did enjoy them but I'm still waiting for a lot of answers. Apart from that, I loved everything in this episode. I loved to see the team all together again, I loved that there were no bullsh*t side story-line which, sometimes, is annoying, and, most of all, I liked that they finally got Diaz! Oh, and Stanley... I can see there's way more to him and I can wait for it all to be reveled.

But that's it for now! Great episode!

Let me know what you thought of the episode and what do think is going to happen? What is up with all the stuff in the flash-forwards? If you have any idea, let me know! Oh, and just a side note, it wasn't this time that Oliver got out of jail so... Maybe next episode? Let's see.

Until then...

Love,

Daniela.

Supernatural | Season 14 Episode 6 - "Optimism"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello people!

Here I am with a brand new Supernatural rant!

I had quite a lot of fun watching this episode. I really liked it! There were some parts that were kind odd, such as the whole thing with Sam and 'Charlie', but I think the Dean and Jack part of the episode made up for it and I'm really happy with how it turned out. Well, you couldn't expect otherwise because Richard Speight Jr. was, once again, the director of the episode and, once again, he made a masterpiece. I really enjoyed the music choices! The only thing though, and this is not Richard's fault, but there was no Cas, again, and I kind of miss him. But anyway, let's get deep into the episode.

The episode starts with some happy tunes but not so happy events, with a guy from McCook, Nebraska, being killed. Finding about this, Jack convinces Dean to work this case with him and so the fun begins!

Dean and Jack discover that the local librarian, Harper Sayles, has a bad history with men and suspect her to be cursed. In order to find more about this whole thing, Dean sets up Jack to kind of flirt with her and see what happens. That's when Dean gets attacked, not by Harper, but Vance, Harper's old boyfriend who is a zombie resurrected by Harper herself, a necromancer. She explains that this is kind of a 'game' that she does with a boyfriend and since he needs to eat human skin (or whatever) in the end, she basically 'gives' this boys for Vance to eat.

Well, in the end, Dean and Jack manage to kill Vance, but Harper escapes and develops an obsession with Jack (I kind of hope she comes back at some point in this season because I was kind of shipping her with Jack #sorrynotsorry).

At the same time, Sam is working a case with Charlie Bradbury in Memphis, Tennessee. The two determinate that they are dealing with some type of insect monster called Musca and kill it very easily. I don't really know what to say about this story-line apart from that the Musca was really gross and creepy. Kind of liked that.

Before I finish, I just need to mention that very end of the episode which set up a pretty big cliffhanger.

So, during the episode, Jack's strange cough persists and then, at the very end of the episode, Jack coughs up blood in front of Dean before suddenly collapsing, bleeding from his nose and mouth.

I seriously hope they don't kill off Jack because I love him! I know there are too many characters in the show right now, mainly because they just decided to bring a lot of the dead ones back, but if I had to choose, I would rather still have Jack and get rid of Mary and Bobby. I'm sorry, but they don't really add anything new to the story and, to be honest, when Mary got back, it looked like she was going to change a lot of things but... She just got really annoying and yeah... Don't kill Jack, please!

Anyway... Let me know all your thoughts and predictions and, this time, we are going to have to wait a little bit longer for a new Supernatural episode. In the mean time, I'll see you with new The Flash and Arrow rants!

Love,

Daniela.

American Horror Story: Apocalypse | Season 8 Episode 10 - "Apocalypse Then"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

Here we are with the final rant of American Horror Story: Apocalypse and, as you can expect, I have a whole lot of things to talk about.

Truth be told, I feel very weird about this episode. Not only I watched it in two parts (I had to leave for some time and then watch the rest) but I also feel like my thoughts are divided into three different sections - the first half of the episode I quite enjoyed (I mean, there was still parts from the past, but okay...), the middle part I didn't like, and the final part I thought it was nice. So, in summary, I just wish the middle part could have met the rest of the episode even though, if they did change it, at least, in the way I would like, the end would be totally different but yeah... Anyway...

The episode starts right away with more flashbacks and that made my hopes get instantly down. I was so sick of the flashbacks and was really hoping this would be all present day and seeing that right in the beginning... It didn't look good to me. I then made piece with it because we find out a lot of things such as how the witches got Mallory and Coco into Outpost 3 as well as made them forget about who they were and create new identities, so Mallory's powers could grow. The only issue I had with this was that Cordelia wasn't thinking about stopping the apocalypse, she just wanted to kill Michael. But okay...

Then we see then finding about Dinah's involvement in all of this and right after we also see Cordelia, Myrtle and Madison bury themselves in the swamp mud to survive the nuclear bombings.

And that's when we get back to Present day (finally!).

We see the Coven facing Michael Langdon and then that's when the nice things start to happen!

Dinah pledges allegiance to the Antichrist, but right away a newly regenerated Marie Laveau kills Dinah for her betrayal. I love Angela Basset so I was so stoked to see her back (even though I knew she was going to be in this episode).

Cordelia then destroys Mead while Madison shoots Langdon to buy time for Mallory to enact the time travel spell. Then, a big chain of events happen! Michael gets back to life while Madison is distracted and my favorite part of the whole episode was Michael blowing up with Madison's head! That was priceless! Not only I don't like Madison, but it was also pretty surprising, so loved it!

After killing Madison, Marie Laveau tries to do something but Michael rips out her heart, eats it and, when Coco tries to do something as well, he also kills her! And, while all of this is happening, Brock comes out of no where (I didn't even remember that he was still in the Outpost) and stabs Mallory, leaving her really weak and not able to do the time travel spell. That's what the most expected thing happens - Cordelia kills herself so Mallory can have her full power and do the spell.

And, the worst part of the episode happens.

Mallory performs the spell and returns to 2015, where she runs over a younger Langdon multiple times, killing him. 

Like, how could something like that happen?! I get that he was younger and so not as strong as in present day but... C'mon! He got shot like 20 times in the present day and he survived. How could he be run over and not to?! I got really pissed off with that because, besides loving Michael to death and wanting him to win, this was just quick and, in my opinion, poorly written.

Anyway... Mallory then, eventually, returns to the Coven house and, in a way, saves Queenie, Misty and Nan from their previous fates. 

This also messed me up a little because I thought she had to go back to 'present day' but no, she was still in 2015... I don't know.. It kind of makes sense but it kinda doesn't... All I know is that, the only thing that I enjoyed about this part was that she knew where Madison was but she chose to let her stay in her own hell. At least, for a little longer.

And, in the very end, we see what then happens in 2020 and we see Timothy and Emily (remember them?!) meet, marry and a son together, who later kills his nanny. Then, LaVey, Crowe and Mead visit them, saying that they are there to help them. And that's the end.

I kind of liked that ending because it was a good homage to the Murder House ending and it basically told us that, no matter what you do, a new Antichrist is going to be born - it's the prophecy, and I liked that as well.

My only issue was that it looked like they thought 'Oh, remember Timothy and Emily? We haven't done anything with them. Let's put them here.'. That's kind of what it looked like to me but remember, Michael chose them to be in the Outpost saying that they had special DNA so... Maybe be knew all along that they would create a new Antichrist... Who knows?!

I just know that, as expected, they really rushed the events in this episode and the deaths that happened, didn't really happen and that made them way less impactful. At least, in my opinion. I think it would be a much better ending if Michael won (maybe not killing all the witches) and they they stretched this story to the next season (which was what a lot of people wanted). That would be way better but, what can you do?!

Let me know how you feel about this ending. Where you rooting for Michael like I was or am I just that twisted? Tell me everything in the comments and I'll talk to you tomorrow!

Love,

Daniela.

The Flash | Season 5 Episode 5 - "All Doll'd Up"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello!

So, here I am, with the The Flash rant, just like I promised.

As you know, I watched this episode live and what a nice episode! I really enjoyed this one! It had some creepy stuff that I love, it had nice story-lines (even thought they didn't really touch on the Cicada problem) and it had nice character development not only for Nora, Iris and Barry, but mainly for characters that aren't that major! All things that I loved. Yes, there were some 'too cheesy' West-Allen moments, that I didn't like, but I know that's just me because I don't like West-Allen and basically everyone does. Anyway, let's get into all the details that made me love this episode!

The story in this episode is set two weeks later (almost just like in real life) and we see that there's still issues between Nora and Iris, with Nora not showing up for practice and then, when Nora and Barry have to stop two criminals, she just cuts the coms between herself and Iris.

As you can expect, Iris gets really frustrated and that's when Nora reveals that in the future, Iris is always giving her a hard time and never wants her to ask questions, mostly about Iris' past. And, as the spoiled brat the she is, Nora goes back to Joe and Cecile's house and that's when Cecile and her have some 'bonding' moments, with Cecile telling Nora stuff about Iris' life. (Oh, and I just wanted to point out that Nora acts like really childish for her age! I mean, she's supposed to be like 24/25 and she does some stuff that... It annoys me! At first it didn't, because I kind of could understand, since she have never met her father and such but now... even with Cecile.. damn! Anyway...).

After that, that's when we get introduced to this week's meta - Rag Doll.

Rag Doll must be the creepiest meta that The Flash ever had and, truth be told, I loved it!

First, we saw him stealing a necklace from a couple and then, the second time that he attacks, he targets an architect downtown and destroys his office, although Barry ends up saving him.

Post this, Iris and Barry start investigating this meta and that's not only when the cheesy West-Allen moments happen, but that's also when Barry gets captured by Rag Doll and held hostage on a rooftop with power dampening cuffs. Then, the most amazing moment in Flash's history happens! Ralph and Iris go to save Barry and then, when Rag Doll pushes Barry off the rooftop, Iris jumps off the building to remove Barry's cuffs so he can save them both. And then, in the end, Ralph swallows Rag Doll, which was something pretty funny, before becoming an airbag to land safely.

Meanwhile, Cisco and Caitlin investigate the latter's father and track him to a University office. This was a side story that I quite enjoyed not only because of all the mysteries that involve Caitlin's father and the Killer Frost identity, but also because in this episode we got to see more of Cisco and Caitlin's friendship, mainly through that part where Cisco got hurt while vibing and everything, and that was pretty cute.

Well, in the very end, Cisco commandeers DeVoe's satellites to try and find Caitlin's father's hideout, which he ends up finding.

I'm pretty stoked for next episode because it's going to be mainly about Caitlin and I'm loving that story-line. We are finally going to see her father and something tells me there's a lot to it so... I'm curious!

Let me know all your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you in my next rant!

Love,

Daniela.

The Challenge: Final Reckoning | Season 32 Episode 19 - "The Walking Dead"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello people!

So, today, I'm bringing you first the The Challenge rant! I know I said in my last rant that today I was going to post the The Flash one and I am. It's coming right after this one!

I have quite a lot to say about this episode of The Challenge! Not only this was the last episode before the final but it was also packed with challenges and eliminations and stuff and, for once, there wasn't any drama, which is huge (and which also made the episode pass by really quickly)! So, past that, let's get into it!

The episode started right away with a new challenge - the electric shocks challenge that we saw in the preview. What we didn't know about this challenge was that it was also a trivia challenge, which is my favorite! But unfortunately, because this took way more time than the previous trivia, we didn't get to see all the questions, which is really a bummer because I love to try and answer to all those questions. Anyway, the outcome of that was, once again, Sylvia and Joss winning.

Post that, we moved pretty quickly to nominations and, this time, we didn't see anyone's vote.

And, just like that, we are in Armageddon for another elimination.

I was really curious because I had no idea how this was going to go. It looked like no one was really targeting Bananas and Tony anymore but, at the same time, there was always that possibility... It was so confusing. But then, TJ said that only one team got the most votes and... It was Tony and Bananas.

Then, out of the people that voted for them, which were Joss/Sylvia and Natalie/Paulie, they could only go against the later so... That it was.

My hopes got really high when I saw what type of challenge it was - an eating challenge. But there were two parts to this challenge, and that was the big problem.

Tony didn't really have a problem with the eating (nor did Paulie, for that matter), but the second part was to have your arms in the air as long as possible and, to be honest, as soon as I saw that challenge I thought it was actually made for me. This might sound really weird but I spend a lot of time with my hand/arms in the air just because I like the feeling. I know, weird, but I thought I would be good at this challenge. But I would never be as good as Bananas or Natalie (at least, I don't think so) because they spent 5 hours with their hands in the air. 5 hours! Then, it was just up to who was willing to give up and... Bananas was the one to give up. I don't really know how I feel about that. He was so damn close to the final and to proving all this b*tches wrong and, for that, I'm a bit mad at him but then... 5 hours is a long time and I can't be mad because he really tried. And then, it's not like he never won or anything. Plus, he's going to be back for another season, for sure so... There's always next season.

And, with that, we move right to the Final. We don't really get to see anything of the final, just TJ explaining that, this time, they are going to get timed individually because, in the end, the person in the winning team with the best time is going to choose if she/he wants to share the money with their team mate or if they want to pull a Johnny Bananas and 'take the money and run'. And that was it.

Needless to say that now, that Bananas and Tony are gone, that I'm rooting for Cara Maria and Marie because, not only I like them better than anyone else, but they are the only girl/girl team and it would be huge if they won! Actually, from the preview, I have a big feeling that they might actually win because of the smile on Cara's face but... You never know.

So, let me know all your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you in a minute with that The Flash rant!

Love,

Daniela.

Arrow | Season 7 Episode 5 - "The Demon"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello people!

Here I am, in a brand new week, with a brand new Arrow rant.

I feel like I've been saying this a lot about basically all the series but, this arrow episode made me feel weird. Not in a bad way though, it just that a lot of people loved the episode and got so excited about it and, for me, it was just... okay. I mean, don't get me wrong, I liked the episode and basically all the story-lines in it were pretty interesting but for some odd reason it didn't got me that interested. I don't know, maybe it was just a day that I wasn't feeling the Arrow vibes. Anyway, let's get into specifics.

In this episode we finally got to really see "Level Two". I know a lot of people were disappointed last episode about what Level Two was. It looked like 'not that bad' but what we saw wasn't really Level Two. I mean, it was, but it was just Oliver's 'bedroom' (or something) and in this episode we saw the rest of Level Two, where inmates are kept in inhuman conditions and mostly experimented on.

In there, he finds Talia (she actually breaks into his 'room') and she tries to persuade him into helping her to get out of there. At first, Oliver refuses, but then, after seeing what really happens in Level Two (inmates dying because of the experiments) he teams up with her to plan an escape. This brought some of the coolest fight scenes in the episode (and maybe even in the season), which was actually one of the things that quite enjoyed about it. Anyway, after fighting all those guards and everything, Oliver decides not to escape himself to avoid having to spend the rest of his life as a fugitive. Also, Oliver pulls up 'a Felicity' and collects some evidence of what happened in level two, and so he asks Talia to deliver them to Felicity, which she does, thus causing the facility to be shut down and then Oliver is transferred back to level one.

Elsewhere, Curtis gets back on the field with Dig, and helps capturing an international terrorist.

I don't really know what else to say about this story-line. I thought this was really out of context and not really necessary for the show at all, but it was nice to see Curtis back on the field, plus, he always brings some light to the show so, that was fun.

And, the last story-line that I kind of enjoyed was Felicity, Black Siren and Dinah teaming up to find, 'the legal way', what is Level Two and what happens there because, after trying to visit Oliver in prison, she finds out, through he's new sidekick, that he's in Level Two. Oh, Felicity also tells him that she has a lead on Diaz and, for some reason, I feel like that was a mistake. I don't know why, but I feel like this new sidekick isn't really who he says he is so... 

Anyway, in the very end, Black Siren plans to use the evidence of Level Two to plead for Oliver's release which I believe is going to work out. I always had a feeling that Oliver would be out by episode 6 so... Let's see if I'm right.

Okay, I guess that is all for this episode!

Like I said, weird, but good. Now, I'm going to get ready for the new The Flash episode and feel free to come live tweet with me!

Love,

Daniela.

Supernatural | Season 14 Episode 5 - "Nightmare Logic"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

Here I am with the last rant of the week - Supernatural.

I have to say, I'm not quite sure of what to think about this episode. It was a nice episode, don't get me wrong, but it wasn't like amazing! There was quite a few stuff that I liked (mainly the ending, to be honest) but nothing really stood out to me so... I'm confused.

Anyway, the episode starts with Maggie who, while working on her first solo case, disappears. From her body camera, Sam and Dean learn that Maggie was hunting what appeared to be a ghoul, who might have caught her off guard. And this is what sets the whole episode.

While investigating, the Winchesters encounter their mother and Bobby Singer who are investigating the same case. The four discover the body of another hunter and weird manifestations that make them suspect that the owner of the house, who is comatose, is some type of psychic and that he's bending reality around them.

And then that's when my favorite part happens.

Sam does find Maggie in the attic of the house meanwhile Bobby and Mary fight Bobby's son (another weird manifestation) in the woods. And, while all of this is happening, Dean realizes that the home owner's nurse is a djinn, enhanced by Michael, and that he's do one 'creating' all this monsters.

Neil reveals that he was left as a trap for hunters by Michael and that are dozens of similar traps all over the place. Then, obviously, the djinn tries to attack Dean and that's when we see that, for some odd reason, Dean is immune to the djinn's powers and that's when Dean attacks him and kills him.

Finding this information (about all the traps that are spread around the globe) Sam and Dean spread the word warning other hunters while Bobby tells Mary, who has begun falling for him (as we predicted) how since he lost his son, hunting is all he's had and known. Post this, Mary and Bobby decide to take time off in order for Bobby to heal as well as find something else to live for.

I'm actually pretty happy with this. I haven't been loving Mary that much and I think there have been too many characters on the show right now so I think this is great so he can get back to focus on the brothers. Also, this is a great way to have Jack and Cas back, which we will, from what we've seen in the preview.

I really don't know what else to say about this episode so tell me all your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you next week with new rants!

Love,

Daniela.

American Horror Story: Apocalypse | Season 8 Episode 9 - "Fire and Reign"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello guys!

So, we are reaching the end of this season of American Horror Story.

For some odd reason, I thought it would have more than 10 episodes but, from the looks of it, and from what I've seen everyone talking about, the next episode is going to be the last one and... I don't know how I feel about it. The season started pretty strong and, the 6 first episodes were great (episode 5 not so much, but I'll let it split) but this last three... Sure this one was better then the previous one, but all of them have been pretty boring... I don't know what it is about this episodes that I'm not enjoying as much, but maybe I'm tired of flashbacks and I just want to get into the actual stuff. And that worries me because, if next episode is the last one, I'm almost 100% sure they are going to rush it and it will disappoint me. Sometimes is better to have low expectations, to be honest, but I feel like next episode won't live up to what was the beginning of the season. Let's hope not!

Anyway, like I said, this episode was better, mainly because we got answers to a lot of stuff, one of them being the witches and what happened to them. Right in the beginning of the episode we see Dinah helping Michael get inside the Coven house and just kill basically all of them, the ones not dead being Cordelia, Myrtle, Mallory, Misty, Coco and Madison. Of course Cordelia tries to get them back, but she can't, and that's when Madison reveals that Michael can erase the souls of people, making them 'non-existent'. 

The remaining girls take refuge in Misty's swamp-shack, where Myrtle tells them of an ancient spell that no witch has ever been able of casting, a spell that can undo past events, just like when Mallory not only cured that dear but also made him younger. And this is what set's everything. They think Mallory can bring some of the witches back to life by undoing what happened but first, in order to test Mallory's power, in a way that Michael won't know what they're doing (aka something that won't change the future), Myrtle asks Mallory to travel to Russia in 1918, and save Grand Duchess Anastasia Romanova, a secret witch.

Mallory's attempt to save Anastasia fails, though Myrtle notes that she is the first witch to successfully travel through time. 

Meanwhile, while the witches are trying to undo Michael's actions, we see more of what Michael have been doing. Not only he's pissed that he didn't get to kill all the witches, but he's still pretty lost on what to do and how to make the apocalypse happen, and that's when Mutt and Jeff come to action!

We see that they have been controlling Ms. Mead the whole time and they set up a meeting with Michael. In that meeting they inform Michael about The Cooperative (another piece of the puzzle). We learn that The Cooperative is, in fact, the Illuminati, which was a nice touch to this season, to be honest, my favorite thing about this episode, and they tell Michael that this organization is made up of world leaders and important people that sold their soul to Satan.

After that, Langdon meets with the Illuminati, informing them about the Outposts and begins to plan the end of the world.

I also should say that we also find out how Ms. Venable gets involved with the Cooperative - she was just 'referred to' by Mutt and Jeff.

So, we got basically all our answers in this episode so I bet next episode is going to be all present day again and, since it looks like it's going to be the last one, we are going to see a battle between the Witches and Michael. I still don't see how the witches are going to win against Michael, Mallory might be strong but I still don't see her winning against him and, to be fair, I hope Michael wins because that would be a pretty big twist! I don't know about you but I think it would be sick!

Anyway, let me know all your predictions for the Season Finale and I'll talk to you tomorrow!

Love,

Daniela.

The Challenge: Final Reckoning | Season 32 Episode 18 - "It's Always Sunny in South Africa"

Spoiler Alert!

(Once again, look at that photo of Bananas...Anyway...)

Hello everyone! Here I am, one more day, with a new The Challenge rant!

And you guys have no idea how happy I am with this episode! Not only it was the type of episodes that I like - with challenges non-stop and no drama - but also I loved the outcome of this eliminations.

Okay, I'm just going to say it - Bananas freaking won against Shane! F*ck, yeah! And this win was even better because it was a physical challenge! I already knew that it was going to be, because I saw some previews on The Challenge's twitter account, but you never know how this is going to end. Thankfully, it ended just the way I wanted (and that it should've ended) and Bananas/Tony won against Nelson/Shane, and by a lot! This was one of those types of eliminations that were 3 out of 5 and Bananas/Tony scored 3 right away, against 0 from Shane and Nelson, so this whole win was even better! I just can't stop saying how happy I am with this outcome so, before I keep on rambling about how much I like Bananas, let's move to the other team that also got back to game (but not for long) - Kam and Kayleigh. 

That's right, Kam and Kayleigh won against Brad and Kyle and worst of all was that Brad and Kyle were the ones to get the double cross so, therefore, the ones to choose which team they wanted to go against (aka the weakest team) and even with that advantage, they lost. I have to say, I was kind of rooting for them because, just like Bananas and Tony, Brad and Kyle were hated by basically everyone and, for some odd reason, I like those teams. But anyway, this just shows how bad they are because they lost against Shane and Nelson and now they also lost against Kam and Kayleigh and, not to be sexist or anything, but they lost against two girls! Yes, their challenge wasn't physical like Bananas' was, but still... 

Moving on... Surprisingly, there was no drama nor any 'break' between the eliminations and the next challenge, which I quite liked. 

This challenge was an endurance one that, it kind of looked like it was easy, but I guess it wasn't that easy because a lot of teams struggled. Anyway, we also find out that that challenge is another purge challenge and that the last teams is going home (because no more redemption house from now on), and that last team was Kam and Kayleigh. I'm actually okay with that... I don't care much for them and Kam sometimes was really annoying so, it was cool. The first place team though was Sylvia and Joss, which I didn't like... I hate all those Lavender Ladies and after what happened between Marie and Sylvia... I used to like Sylvia and dislike Marie but now I feel the other way around - I hate Sylvia and kind of like Marie. Well, at least Sylvia and Joss aren't like 'safe', they are just going to have an advantage for the next challenge (at least, that's what I understood).

And, yeah, I guess that's pretty much it for this episode. I'm quite happy with where this is going. I'm almost 100% sure that, if Bananas and Tony don't win the next challenge, they are going to go to elimination again but, let's be fair, unless it is another of those dumb challenges of building pyramids or some sh*t, they are going to win against any of those teams so, I'm confident. Plus, I know they can win an challenge! I have faith in my boys. I also predict that there's going to be three/four more episodes - the next one with a challenge and an elimination, the following two the final and the last episode the reunion.

Let me know your thoughts and what you think is going to happen in the next episodes! We are pretty close to the final so... Let's see how this all ends!

I'll see you guys in my next rant!

Love,

Daniela.

Arrow | Season 7 Episode 4 - "Level Two"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello people and welcome to a new Arrow rant!

For once, I was able to fully watch the episode live and not miss anything, so that was nice. I also got pretty surprised with this episode. At first, I wasn't sure about it, it looked a bit 'boring' in my opinion, but it soon got really interesting and, if I'm being honest, pretty dark.

There was a lot of new information in this episode and it set a pretty heavy tone for the rest of the season (and even for the next seasons, if it gets renewed), which is interesting and I'm actually pretty curious.

So, in this episode we had the return of the flash-forwards and, unlike last episode, this one didn't focus much on Oliver in prison, but it still had him, of course. Even though the flash-forwards were my favorites, I have to leave them for last because they brought a pretty big revelation so, I'll leave it for last. Now, let's talk about Felicity and Black Siren.

We saw in the trailer (and in some scenes in the CW YouTube channel) that Felicity and Black Siren were going to 'team up' in order to get some information from The Silencer. It was a pretty funny dynamic, but I still don't like Black Siren. I did like that Black Siren went in and tried to get information by force, which is something that Felicity wouldn't really do. I didn't like though was that they cut that part, which was a bit of a bummer. Also in that part of the story-line, we then see a 'soft side' from Black Siren. Still, it didn't made me like her more, but it was nice and she kind of made Felicity do something pretty clever, which got them closer to catching Diaz (I can't really wait for that to happen!).

The other story-line that wasn't really that strong in this episode was Oliver in prison. I have to say that I was pretty excited about him going to this 'Level Two' but it just looked like they kept torturing him for some odd reason that I didn't really understand! My prediction is that the guy that said he was a doctor or something is, in fact, The Demon and he's trying to get something out of Oliver. Like I said, I don't know what it is, I'm still pretty confused about the whole thing, but there's no way this guy is just a doctor.

Now, let's talk about the main topic of this episode - Rene/Dinah/the new GA.

There was this whole story of a new 'villain', those baddies of the week type of thing, not really that important, to be honest, it's only purpose was to change Dinah's opinion on the new Green Arrow as well as make her working with Rene, which thank god happened because I was really starting to get annoyed with Dinah. I love Juliana, but her character was started to make me angry so I'm really thankful that they changed her attitude by the end of this episode.

This whole story-line also raised a bunch of other questions but the one thing that I really enjoyed was when Dinah gave the 'Black Canary' pin to Zoe. I knew there was something up with that and we then find that out on the flash-forwards.

And since we are on the topic of flash-forwards, let's talk about those because they gave us a lot in this episode!

First of all, we see Roy and old William in Star City. Once again, we see Star City destroyed. We see them following a bunch of clues and that's when a Green Arrow appears, which than is revealed to be Dinah! That was already something huge, but it didn't stop here! We then see that Zoe took the mantel of Black Canary, which I actually enjoyed, but the big reveal came in the very end of the episode. William tells that it must be Felicity the one to make him follow all this clues and that's when Dinah reveals that Felicity is dead. Like what?! Felicity is going to die?! I sure don't want to see an Arrow without Felicity so, how are they going to fix that?! This isn't The Flash, where they can change the future and stuff. I mean, they can but... This is the thing that confuses me. I'm sure they won't kill off Felicity, at least, not right now... We might only get to see this Future in four/five seasons head, but even with that, I doubt they would kill her so my thought is that this Green Arrow that is in Star City in present time is someone from the future. At first, thought it was Roy, but that would be too obvious in my opinion. Him being William not only would also bee too obvious, but it would also mean that he time traveled, which I don't think Arrow would get into that but there's no other option, to be honest. So, it either is Roy, William or future Dinah. I'm still pretty confused so I can't say for sure but my bet is in one of those three.

I don't know what else to say about this episode. It got me really surprised and full of questions!

Let me know what you thought of the episode, what are your predictions... Do you have any idea who this new Green Arrow is? Tell me all your thoughts in the comments.

I'll see you guys tomorrow with a new The Challenge rant!

Love,

Daniela.

American Horror Story: Apocalypse | Season 8 Episode 8 - "Sojourn"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello people and here I am, finally, with the American Horror Story rant!

Unfortunately, I don't come with a good rant. This episode really let me don't and it was, for sure, the worst episode of the season.

Just like I predicted, this was another flashback episode (aka another filler) but a good one. This one focused only on Michael bringing back Ms. Mead and I just think they could've shortened that story-line and show a bit more of how the actual apocalypse happened because we still don't know that.

The episode actually started strong, with Michael finding the remains of the warlocks and Ms. Mead, and then being confronted by Cordelia, who informs him that Mead's soul is hidden by a spell.

After that, we see Michael lost on what he should do and goes to the forest in a way to contact his dad, Satan. Unsuccessfully, Langdon remains strong, but confused, and is led to an obscure Satanic church. At the church, he meets Madelyn, who brings him to her home and offers him food. At her house, Madelyn starts talking about how successful she became after selling her soul to Satan and how she and the remaining 'Satan lovers' are waiting for the Antichrist. To this, Langdon reveals that he is the Antichrist to which Madelyn takes him back to the church, revealing to everyone that he is the Antichrist and ending with everyone worshiping him.

Then, Michael reveals that he is still lost after not being able to talk to his dad and because of the loss of Ms. Mead. After finding out about this Madelyn takes Langdon to a robotics corporation, run by engineers Mutt and Jeff, played by Billy Eichner and Evan Peters, which was pretty funny and unexpected, really wasn't expecting to see Evan Peters in that role and with that funny wig.

It is also revealed that Ms. Venable worked for the corporation before the nuclear blast, and that Mutt Jeff were the ones that created the robotic version of Ms. Mead. And that's basically what happened in this episode.

Like I said, pretty underwhelming in my opinion. All of this just to show where Ms. Mead came from. Yes, it was surprising to find Ms. Venable in the corporation, and I'm curious to see how she became 'friends' with Ms. Mead and all that we know is happening in present day. The only good part of this episode, to be honest, was Cody Fern's performance which, as usual, was flawless!

Okay, that's it guys. 

Let me know what you thought of the episode and I'll see you tomorrow with a brand new Arrow rant!

Love,

Daniela.

Supernatural | Season 14 Episode 4 - "Mint Condition"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

I'm not even going to apologize again because you know the drill, so let's just jump right into the actual rant.

This was a nice little episode. It wasn't anything amazing because it didn't really kept the story going, but it was a good one because, not only it was a break from all the madness that have been happening in the past episode (and even seasons) but it was a nice nod to the old days, with only Sam and Dean, working by themselves on a case. I have to admit, I missed Castiel and Jack on this episode, and I was actually really looking forward to see Jack, without powers, working on a case, but I believe we will see that in the future, but this 'only the brothers' episode was a really good one because it really were only Sam and Dean that were in this episode (from the main/recurring cast, I mean), no Bobby, no Mary, anyone really and, surprisingly, I liked that!

Anyway... So, this episode was set in Halloween, which was nice (in case you didn't know, I love Halloween) and in which a toy attacks its owner, Stuart.

Sam and Dean go check it out and that's when both Stuart and Dean are attacked by an invisible figure with a chainsaw. After that 'encounter', Sam and Dean determine that they are dealing with the vengeful spirit of the comic shop owner, where Stuart works, because Stuart have been stealing stuff from the shop.

After that, the spirit possesses a life-size figure of Dean's favorite horror movie character, David Yeager, who attacks Dean in an hospital where he's keeping an eye on Stuart.

Well, as you can expect, Sam manages to destroy the ghost. And after that, while Dean and Sam are getting back to the bunker, Sam reveals the reason why he hates Halloween - a traumatic event in his childhood where he got embarrassed in an Halloween party in front of the girl that he liked.

This was a really random moment, and not really that important to the story, nor the episode, but it was something nice that they added. Plus, I feel like this 're-created' the bonding that there is between Sam and Dean, and I always love that.

And, that's it guys! Not a big big episode, but a nice one!

Let me know all your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you in my next rant (which I don't really know when that's going to be, sorry).

Love,

Daniela.

The Challenge: Final Reckoning | Season 32 Episode 17 - "Scandal"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

This is the longest I've been without posting my The Challenge and for that I apologize.

Well, I have to say, this episode was pretty ironic. Although it didn't have like my 'perfect ending', I still have my hopes up and I'm not giving up on my man Johnny Bananas. And, if you don't know what I'm talking about, yes, Bananas and Tony were the ones to go to elimination straight away. It was pretty obvious, in my opinion, and I've told you in my last The Challenge rant it was either going to be Bananas/Tony or Ashley/Hunter to go to the Redemption House because they were the only teams that we didn't see in the preview. So, when it came to Bananas and Tony choosing the Team to go against, I really believed they were going to choose Ashley and Hunter but, as soon as they picked Joss and Sylvia, I knew Bananas and Tony were going to be the ones to go to Redemption House.

I hate when people like Joss and Sylvia send people like Bananas home because it just shows that it really depends on the challenge and who's lucky in the end because there's no way they would win if it was a more physical stuff so I just hate that. The bright side is that not everything is lost and they went to the Redemption House, where they actually have a pretty good chance to, if they don't get the double-cross, to get picked. Well, we now know that won't be a factor in the next double-cross, to be honest, but I'll get into that in a minute.

After being sent to the Redemption House, Bananas starts steering the pot right away and tells Kayleigh that Nelson have been hanging out and cuddling and stuff with Natalie which, to be quite honest, isn't entirely a lie. Yes, from what we've seen, they didn't hook up or anything, and Bananas clearly made it look like they did, but they really did hang out all night and who knows if they didn't cuddle.

But, the thing is, the next challenge changed everything and it kind of 'ruined' Bananas' 'plan'.

The next challenge was a Purge challenge, like we saw in the preview, and basically everyone did bad! The only teams to actually get something done were Natalie/Paulie and Ashley/Hunter (surprisingly) but, in the end, Natalie and Paulie won the challenge so that was pretty nice! They aren't safe or anything because there won't be an elimination, but they are going to get an advantage for the next challenge. Oh, and I just need to say that it really pissed me off when Ashley said that the show was run now by the Redemption House people. Like, please! You came into the game halfway through so, stfu!

Anyway... In the end, Shane and Nelson were the ones to be sent to the Redemption House where no one likes them, and in a pretty ironic twist of events! 

The final thing that we saw was Kayleigh confronting Nelson about the Natalie thing and, of course, Bananas steering the pot. I'm really curious to see how this whole thing is going to end. Either way, I bet there's going to be an huge fight and Shane and Nelson are going to be even more hated then before.

Well, that's basically it. We then saw in the preview that next episode is going to be the last double-cross, no more Redemption House from now on, and everyone is going to be part of the elimination because two teams are coming back to the 'actual game', so it won't really matter who gets the double-cross because everyone is going to have shot. I'm actually fine with that, to be honest. Oh, and I think the double-cross is just to see who gets to pick who they want to go against. My sister and I have a theory that everyone that gets into the Redemption House last are the ones to get the double-cross so Shane and Nelson are probably going to get it. I don't really care, to be honest, because I think Bananas and Tony can beat basically anyone. The only team that I'm a bit more afraid of is Kyle and Brad but apart from them, I don't really care.

I'm going to keep rooting for Bananas and I do really hope he comes back and wins this whole thing just to show that the OGs are still alive and running! 

So, let me know your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you in my next rant (I don't know when that's going to be because I'm kind of busy right now).

Love,

Daniela.
