Bates Motel review – 1×10: ‘Midnight’

May 21, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

It’s season finale time for A&E’s breakout drama, Bates Motel, a show we stopped covering early on. With the end of the season on hand, I figured I would check back in to see how the prequel finished up. Short version: calling this show a piece of garbage is a huge understatement.

The Vampire Diaries review – 4×23: ‘Graduation’

If there’s one thing that The Vampire Diaries does well, it’s season finales. And the episode to close out the fourth season is no exception: a dead witch, my beloved Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) brought back to life, a dead doppleganger, and a twist ending we never could have seen coming!

Arrow review – 1×23: ‘Sacrifice’

The Undertaking is upon us and destruction is guaranteed on the season finale of The CW’s Arrow. Can Oliver (Stephen Amell) and company defuse Malcolm Merlyn’s (John Barrowman) earthquake device before it levels the Glades? As if you even have to ask.

Revenge review – 2×21 / 2×22: ‘Truth – Part 1’ / ‘Truth – Part 2’

Last week the power went off across New York after the most gonzo episode of Revenge yet. So how does the two part finale – in which we knew someone major would die – fare in wrapping up a contentious second season?

Once Upon A Time review – 2×22: ‘And Straight On ‘Til Morning’

May 13, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

It’s season finale time on Once Upon A Time. The second half of the adventure focuses on Greg (Ethan Embry) and Tamara’s (Sonequa Martin-Green) plan to blow Storybrooke off the map. So why do we spend so much freaking time exploring Hook’s (Colin O’Donoghue) reformed bad boy pirate?

Part one of Once Upon A Time‘s two part season finale is upon us and not a moment too soon. After a problem plagued second season, will the finale rescue the show as its first season finale did?
