We’ve got questions, and you’ve (maybe) got answers! With another week of TV gone by, we’re lobbing queries left and right about dozens of shows including Evil, Legends of Tomorrow, Chucky and Survivor!
1 | How could S.W.A.T.‘s Hondo show up and tell the others, “Let’s get back to work” if Deacon had just left Hicks’ office and there was zero indication Hondo would ever get his job back?
2 | Did Evil assemble the most random assortment of guests for David’s ordination party? And after nothing happened between David and Kristen following their conversation about how things would have been different if they’d met earlier, were you surprised to get a kiss so soon? Lastly, was it funny that Kristen told the kids to “watch Netflix for a few hours” when that’s a Paramount+ competitor?
3 | Would The Walking Dead: World Beyond‘s CRM soldiers really not have heard Iris and Felix dispatching empties a few feet away — regardless of whether they fell when re-killed? And was literally putting a piece of paper over Iris’ code books the most surefire way for that Perimeter dude to hide them from the CRM?
4 | Did it feel weird to have a Chesapeake Shores episode without Abby, especially given Mick’s accident?
5 | In Scenes From a Marriage, did you feel like the line Jessica Chastain’s Mira says from the original movie was clever, or cloying?
6 | Is The Equalizer‘s Delilah McCall more, less, or equally annoying than Scott McCall was in the original series?
7 | Dear The Voice: Could you please reserve a red swivel chair for the insightful and funny Kristin Chenoweth next season?
8 | On NCIS, were you surprised that Gibbs’ exit didn’t involve him buying that beater of a boat at the marina? Or do you reckon he will be refurbishing it when (if?) the show ever checks back in on him?
9 | Shouldn’t NCIS: Hawai’i‘s Tennant have brought along a sat phone (hey, maybe Vance can get her one!) when chasing baddies into a remote mountain range?
10 | Was seeing The Good Doctor‘s Morgan finally let one rip in front of new boyfriend Park one of the week’s funniest TV moments?
11 | We know Dancing With the Stars had to promote Disney’s recent Cruella film (starring Emma Stone), but seriously: Not even a single photo of Glenn Close as the iconic villain during Amanda Kloots’ rehearsal package?
12 | Is La Brea glossing over some things, like where the random hodgepodge of food stuffs came from (a sunken C-store?), and how Eve changed from khakis to jeans? Also, wasn’t Josh awfully spry for someone who almost died just a day ago and has possibly half-haphazard stitches in his abdomen?
13 | When Stargirl flashes back to “Decades Ago,” are Pat and Sylvester supposed to be, what, in their late 20s at most? Should the show do a bit more (anything) to “de-age” Luke Wilson and Joel McHale?
14 | Fans of The Resident and Gilmore Girls, how bummed were you that Matt Czuchry didn’t share scenes with guest star Gregg Henry, who played Logan Huntzberger’s father on the WB/CW series?
15 | Which McKinley Freeman appearance pleased you more Tuesday night: his turn as Nova’s neighbor on Queen Sugar or as Nikki’s father on Our Kind of People?
16 | Even though she said she didn’t remember, how did Jake’s neighbor come into possession of Chucky? And how do you think the returning characters (Tiffany, Andy, Kyle and Nica) will fit into this new madness?
17 | Is it just us, or is Dopesick‘s Michael Stuhlbarg giving Joaquin Phoenix Joker vibes as Richard Sackler?
18 | Is anyone on Survivor 41 getting as big of a winner’s edit as Shan right now? And be honest: How hard did Danny and the Luvu tribe tug at your heartstrings when Heather broke down in tears after the reward challenge?
19 | Would you have preferred for The Conners to give Dan and Louise a less chaotic wedding? As selfish as Darlene can be, at what point does Ben accept some of the responsibility for the implosion of their relationship? And TVLine reader “Patty’ asks: How did they fix those oversized bridesmaid dresses?
20 | Could Legends of Tomorrow‘s Zari give Project Runway contestants a run for their money in terms of sewing speed? Is it far too obvious that the Legends themselves wind up blowing up the Waverider in 1925 after somehow returning to the future? And how come the wreckage looked as if the time-ship was made of concrete?
21 | On The Sinner, are you already more invested in Percy’s story after one episode than you ever were in Jamie’s? And do we have to take everything Ambrose sees on his own with a grain of salt now that we know he’s seeing things that aren’t there?
22 | We know that Sistas‘ Sabrina and Jacobi aren’t a thing anymore, but are you half expecting him to swoop in and save her and Maurice from Q and his robber friends at the bank? We know he can knock dudes out with one punch, right?
23 | Why would Titans‘ Jason — of all recently resurrected people! — be agog that Dick came back from the dead? Also, which character drops the best F-bombs, and why did you say Donna?
24 | In One of Us Is Lying Episode 6 (SPOILER ALERT!), the other students are all watching as the Murder Club is dancing, but then once Bronwyn and Nate start making out in the middle of the dance floor, they’re no longer interested?
25 | Were you tickled that two of CBS’ Ghosts apparently will have a Will They/Won’t They thing going on?
26 | If B Positive‘s Mr. Knudsen had nearly $50 million to his name, couldn’t he have afforded a nicer retirement home than Valley Hills? If anything, wouldn’t he have had private home care and a personal driver to take him to and from appointments?
27 | Did any Grey’s Anatomy viewer buy that the teen whose Internet girlfriend was rushed to the ER would know the code to unlock her phone? And can Addison please stay on the show? Pretty please?
28 | Would this week’s Law & Order: SVU victim really have said she thought about reporting her rape “to SVU” instead of just “to the police”?
29 | How worried does it make you every time Law & Order: Organized Crime‘s Stabler, who’s supposed to be deep undercover with an Albanian drug ring, swings by his apartment to chat with his family? Aren’t the odds pretty good that somebody nefarious is keeping tabs on him? And on an unrelated note: Where can we get our hands on the dress that Bell wore to the party? It was 🔥.
Hit the comments with your answers — and any other Qs you care to share!
8 — Gibbs has definitely already purchased that old trawler
12 — I always click off my BS detector before watching La Brea
8 – I agree. Gibbs has definitely bought that old boat. He said he didn’t have another boat in him but he meant starting from scratch, obviously.😉
#17: I saw the commercials and assumed it WAS Joaquin Phoenix, so…
Gibbs definitely once he finished fishing, will purchase that boat, and fix it up. And who knows, it might end up in Washington LOL one day before the end of the season. But the way he was glancing at it, and with his handy ways. He definitely will purchase it and fix it up. To keep himself busy.
……and he is going to become a good, but not verbose, friend with the fisherman whose daughter was murdered and gave him the gun.
23) I hate to break it to you, but characters–like people–aren’t always perfectly logical in highly emotional, crisis moments of their lives. Shocking, I know, because Jason’s been so Vulcan-like for his whole run on the show
Yes, my first thought was that the Legends from later in the season blew up the Waverider. Probably they stop whoever was going to blow it up and then realize the ship has to blow up for whatever reason and so they do it themselves. Hope it is something else as I hate to be right after just one episode.
Likely major problems would occur if they had left on the ship so decided to divert the team on a new timeline.
20. I don’t think that is necessarily so obvious as I my mind actually more went to that the Time Bureau, even the one that Nate worked for, still wasn’t big fans of the Legends and also there was still the muttering that the Waverider, well, Rip stole it in the first place.
12. I don’t know how spry you would call sitting in a lawn chair or kneeling next to a person performing surgery. But also, they had generally raided most vehicles, but I wouldn’t be surprised if a food truck or a corner store fell through too during the sink hole. But mostly the stuff they were rationing off are stuff you could find in cars. Like candy bars, goldfish crackers, etcetera. They are just missing some younger parents who were probably on their way to pick up little kids who are more apt to have that stuff. I didn’t notice Eve’s clothing change.
Regarding Legends, my immediate thought when the Legends appeared to be stranded in 1925 was, did anyone of them see “Back to the Future, Part III”? Mail the Time Bureau a letter through Western Union or something similar (for specified future delivery date and location), get back to the ranch, and wait a minute for someone from the Time Bureau to extract the team, or not (if there’s a timeline disruption issue involved). At least they’d have gotten a possible quick and easy solution out of the way.
I think that will occur to them because it sounds like the next couple episodes have a bit of Back to the Future about them, but that could be the way the Time Bureau discovers a time where the ship is empty and they wouldn’t be killing anyone. Just stranding them and risking them coming into their jurisdiction. Well, and that also, Matt Ryan’s new role kind of sounds like a version of Doc Brown.
13. I’ve been saying this the whole season. Didn’t the first episode say 50s? When Midnighters daughter dies?
“Decades Ago”
If anyone could identify the model and years of the cars from the scene with McNider’s daughter in the season premiere, that might help narrow things down.
Yeah, I mean not having the budget for the full MCU/Irishman de-aging? Sure. Not even doing a little old school make up magic and maybe a wig or something more than “in a Stripsey shirt?” Seems weird, lazy, and cheap. We did manage to portray people at different ages before there was a computer to fix all of it. That’s not breaking Stargirl’s budget.
Even though I actually enjoyed this week’s SVU, I thought there was alot of lazy writing throughout the episode. The victim saying “SVU” instead of “police”, and also the courtroom scene with Carisi. Two of his objections were him saying “your honor” and another being a hand flick, both of which were sustained by the judge!
20. Question about Legends – When is last season going to be Netflix?
Typically 8 days after the season finale airs.
The stargirl thing is easy if you read the comics. The star spangled kid/skyman and stripesy had an adventure with their other team, the seven soldiers of victory, which involved them being lost in time for a while and then re_ emerging in the present day. The shining knight was also a member of the seven soldiers.
Not all of us read the comics. The show should be understandable to us.
I’m pretty certain there are plans to bring in the seven soldiers at some point in a future season. Last season, the shining knight left in search of the others. It was already alluded to last season that there was some sort of time travel
1) Hondo still has his job. He’s just not team leader anymore, but he’s still a member of SWAT. I’m guessing with Hondo back, Hicks will reactivate Team 2 with Deacon as leader.
.
Also, Hondo doesn’t know what’s going on because he hasn’t been responding, listening to messages, reading texts or email, etc. So he’s probably walking in assuming everything’s all hunky-dory.
.
8) Yeah, I expected a line about him buying the boat, or to ask the father if he knows the owner, etc. He’s definitely going to be working on it if we do see him again.
.
9) Yeah, you’d think she’d have a sat phone, or the guys who know the area and regularly go there would think to have one.
1. Exactly what I came to say. Honda had a job he has been on vacation after his demotion. The brass was just praying he wouldn’t return.
8- Gibbs is currently rebuilding that boat….
1. Massive eye roll for that, but it’s standard for TV.
6. I think less at the moment, Scott in the original was estranged from McCall initially though and was also older than Delilah.
20. My biggest takeaway from LoT this week was please please PLEASE introduce a quota for the number of times Sara and Ava say “Babe” each episode. As drinking game fodder goes it would be up there with Robin’s “but, ummm” on HIMYM.
6: More. Way more. And her hair is terrible!
.
10: No. I have never understood how anyone finds scatological “humor” funny.
.
27: No. And yes!
27 – I thought that was weird too and yes, Addison HAS to stay
I didn’t find it that weird. They think they are in love. People form close attachments with internet loves. Also they are young and in love. The password was probably his birthday.
8 – Betting that we’ll get the boat update at the same time we find out about what Gibbs does with the house.
13 – Guess that there wasn’t enough in the budget to do the de-aging, but was most definitely needed.
I bet he left instructions with Marcie (or a R/E agent) to sell it because I can’t see Gibbs using that sat phone.
At first I thought it was a future version of our Legends blowing up the Waverider, but now I’m leaning towards Gideon. Either way I think it’s kind of obvious because there’s not really many people it could be. I mean in reality in could be anyone but for it to be a good story it has to be the Legends themselves or Gideon.
The Equalizer: I think Delilah is more annoying than Scott was. Scott had a strained relationship with his dad, who had never been there during his childhood. Robin was there for her daughter as much as she could with working. She has way less reason to be so obnoxious to her mom than Scott had with his dad. Plus, Scott wasn’t in it that much, so we didn’t have to deal with it EVERY episode!! I’m really hoping they will calm Delilah’s brattiness now after last week’s episode. I like the young actress but I do NOT like the “bratty, obnoxious” child storyline. Especially in EVERY episode!!
25] Who cares?! They’re both dead, so no physical interaction, or at least no living product of that for the current resident to care for!
26] YES! Thank you!
18. Yes, I think Shan is getting the obvious winner’s edit, which is a shame because I don’t like her. And would be happy to never hear her “thinking tune” ever again. I had liked JD for the entertainment factor. Still don’t know enough about Luvu to have an opinion.
8- That old boat probably isn’t a dead issue.
10- I thought it was rather disgusting. Not funny at all.
Has anyone noticed how the personal story lines of The Resident’s Conrad Hawkins is similar to that of New Amsterdam’s Max Goodwin. Both had newly born babies whose mothers died in vehicle accidents
15. Surprised. Pleased. Watching closely to see what happens next.
13. I think Stargirl wants to use the same actors, it just doesn’t have the budget to de-age them in any way. The CGI technology costs millions and let’s face it, no amount of makeup is going to make Luke Wilson and Joel McHale look younger.
.
Or it’s possible they’re going to do their version of storyline where the JSA was trapped in limbo for decades. But that would lead to the question of how Pat has a teenage son.
13 – The lack of any attempt to de-age Pat and Starman for the flashbacks is annoying if understandable since they want to use the primary actors for the roles, but I keep hoping for a flashback of the original Star-Spangled Kid and a youthful Stripsey using actors of appropriate size and age. Pat was possibly barely out of his teens when he started working for the Pemberton’s and Sylvester about Mike’s age.
