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 shows including The Rookie, Supergirl, Generation and Law & Order: SVU!
1 | Did it strike you as odd that HBO’s superb Tina Turner documentary featured footage of the music icon singing almost all of her biggest hits… with the exception of one, “Private Dancer”?
2 | Could anyone else not help but notice how Wynonna Earp‘s enviable mane got tamed over the course of this continuous scene, before Nicole entered the fog?
3 | After watching Carol struggle to make soup for the bulk of an episode of The Walking Dead, didn’t you kinda wish the show had released her makeshift recipe?
4 | If Men in Kilts has a second season, shouldn’t they find some sort of activity that will scare Sam Heughan the way abseiling nearly undid Graham McTavish?
5 | TVLine reader Natalie writes, “How many in the Blacklist/Equalizer fandom overlap had their heads explode when The Blacklist‘s Katarina Rostova (Laila Robbins) showed up on The Equalizer as the CIA director, only to be subject to … well, let’s just say it was one of Katerina’s big moves against Red?” And was it just us or was Dorian’s faked death too seamless on The Equalizer? Won’t the CIA and British and Chinese governments want photos or something?
6 | So, ABC touts one-season Castle alum Toks Olagundoye’s appearance on Nathan Fillion’s The Rookie, but Molly “Rick’s Daughter Alexis” Quinn just very quietly pops up…? Or did you relish the unexpected “Wait, is that…?” surprise?
7 | Is there any chance that Good Girls‘ Rio kept Fitzpatrick alive in order to use him as leverage later? And do you think the show will pull a Weeds and actually relocate the women next season?
7.5 | How did Black Mask remove Batwoman‘s comms without remove her cowl? Or did he politely replace her cowl after doing so? Maybe while never looking to see her face?
8 | Was “Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Two Monsters” really the best chyron that Today could think of for its interview with Kyle Chandler (aka Coach Taylor) about Godzilla vs. Kong?
9 | With all due respect to the likes of Kumail Nanjiani and Rupert Friend, is the Obi-Wan Kenobi series’ most intriguing casting Bonnie Piesse, from HBO’s NVIXM documentary The Vow, reprising her prequels role as Aunt Beru?
10 | By the time Kelsea Ballerini decided to call The Voice‘s Blake Shelton “Pops,” didn’t it seem like Kelly Clarkson’s sub had always been a member of the coaching panel?
11 | So… what does Maddox’s home life have to do with anything on Debris so far?
12 | What was the luckiest break for Snowpiercer‘s Layton and Ruth? That they discovered Javy’s lipstick message instantly, amid a sea of sewage? That the KO’d guard’s keys were on his person, and not, like, on his desk? Or that the jackboots in Wilford’s quarters didn’t smell their rank selves before they could get the jump on them?
13 | The producers of The Flash do know that This Is Us doesn’t air on The CW, right? (It got so many mentions!) Also, do the actresses playing Frost and Caitlin really need to social distance on set like this?
14 | Are we to believe that Supergirl‘s Nia heard a weak Brainy gasp “I love you” from 20 feet away and through a thick, radiation-containing layer of glass? And did anyone else feel completely lost during the first half of the premiere?
15 | Good Trouble viewers, who do you think Raj’s new mystery girlfriend is?
16 | Had you, too, been waiting for Chicago Med to explain the origins of Crockett Marcel’s name?
17 | Were you sad to see Big T go on The Challenge: Double Agents? And with one more male elimination in the cards, which player do you think will be chopped?
18 | If Riverdale‘s Hiram doesn’t want to be implicated in his evil schemes, should he maybe not put a big red countdown clock on his office desk to show when an explosion will go off, setting off an orchestrated prison break?
19 | Taking bets, Challenge: All Stars fans: Who’s going to get into the first fight, and who do you predict is going to win that $500K? Also, were you slightly underwhelmed by the All Stars’ performances on the first challenge?
20 | Will Generation‘s Chester be able to get past his feelings for guidance counselor Sam? Will Megan ever be able to understand her kids? And will Chester and Bo officially become a thing when the series returns?
21 | Was it just us, or did Grey’s Anatomy‘s Meredith kinda blow off Lexie — just moments into their sisterly reunion — when Mark showed up? Leaving Lexie to just smile and nod as Mer and Mark chatted? (Or is Lexie to blame, seeing as she apparently was more interested in flying a kite??)
22 | It seems like the Million Little Things friend group has gone quite a few episodes without any update from Delilah, right?
23 | Law & Order: SVU/Organized Crime viewers: What’s the over/under on when — if ever! — we’ll become privy to the contents of the letter Elliot wrote Olivia? And on Organized Crime (as several readers pointed out), wouldn’t Fin have been at Kathy’s funeral, as well?
24 | How funny was it to see Chris Chalk, who played Gotham‘s Lucius Fox, show up in Godzilla vs. Kong looking like Batwoman‘s Luke Fox?
25 | Who of authority would have cleared The Falcon and the Winter Soldier‘s Bucky Barnes — who’s already on a tight-ish government leash — to visit the man who has proven able to brainwash him to be a killing machine?
26 | After this Friday’s episode of For All Mankind, who else felt vindicated in their suspicions about Karen and Danny?
Hit the comments with your answers — and any other Qs you care to share!
17. I agree but just assumed that Delilah wasn’t able to be there because of Covid.
18. I REALLY want to read that letter that Elliott wrote. Fin would definitely been at the funeral but once again I blame Covid prodigals.
*protocols*
Damn I didn’t even get the numbers rights……………. I may as well just put myself to bed and start over tomorrow.
.
22. I agree but just assumed that Delilah wasn’t able to be there because of Covid. I’m not really missing her though.
.
23. I REALLY want to read that letter that Elliott wrote. Fin would definitely been at the funeral but once again I blame Covid protocols.
23. I thought the same thing. Or that they would explain it by Liv saying Fin wanted to be there but couldn’t make it. Although as a whole I’m not sure how I feel about OC yet
21. I guess it was the best they could do with Ellen and Eric actually being there together, and Chyler not actually there.
On The Flash, the same actress plays both Frost and Caitlin. Did someone new to watching this show do the reporting on it?
It was a joke…
+125 TVLine Power User points (no cash value) — Joker
The kind of sarcasm required to pull this joke off does not translate well into the written form. It just fell flat and “sounded” serious as a result.
It’s ok to admit you didn’t get the joke. No need to get defensive and lie. It’s the internet bud, it’s not a big deal.
6) I think the difference is recurring vs. one-off. Also I suspect there’s going to be some inappropriate teacher-student flirting going on.
.
9) You think the most ‘intriguing’ casting is somebody that’s already played the part? Uhhh… why? Who else would you expect as Aunt Beru? Or if it’s the fact that Aunt Beru is there at all, then why not include Joel Edgerton as Uncle Owen?
.
14) I haven’t watched yet, but… lip-reading’s a thing, and from the pic it looks like she could be able to *see* him say that.
#13, lol
#11 I assume he is working with Influx to find debris that can undo the damage he did to his son with his at fault car accident, no?
Or his wife is, yes. Good call.
7) Only if they re-locate to a beach in SoCal where they think they’re done with Rio only to meet his twin brother who works for the DEA.
24) Morgan Freeman would be so proud of his boys.
3. No, that’s what Binging with Babish is for.
6. Can only assume it was a deliberate surprise seeing as Toks is recurring but Molly would appear to be a one and done, plus all the fatherly advice Nolan was dishing out did seem to be a less than subtle nod.
7.5. Comic book adaptations are rarely concerned too much with those sorts of things, but Batwoman is particularly bad. E.g. the EMP that works on the comms ages after it takes out the island’s power, but also doesn’t affect Batwoman’s voice changer a few weeks ago.
Something that bothered me with this week’s episode of The Flash was if it was just Joe and Cecile in the house, why was the front door open then?
1. Haven’t watched it myself but maybe they had the same issue that the makers of the “Genius: Aretha” series had, with getting the rights. I really missed seeing “Aretha” have any snippet of “Respect” and “Natural Woman” among its featured songs. Same might have happened with the Tina Turner show.
1. There were some timeline issues throughout the songlists and events, but it didn´t bother me, because it was nice to see and hear Tina & Erwin again.
6. A little underwelming performance from Molly Quinn in an underdeveloped Script.
11. What does anything has to do with Debris in general. Such frustrating show.
11. I’m guessing that the debris will somehow heal his son.
.
12. Definitely the keys being accessible and that you could open the door from the inside.
.
22. Since she’s already said that she is stuck in France for weeks due to her father’s injury there doesn’t really need to be an update. But I haven’t missed her character in the slightest. I’d just like Charlie back to help motivate Eddie to get with the program.
Not sure why Bonnie Piesse playing Beru Lars is so intriguing. Yes, she was in a cult. But she got out and is now trying to move on, returning to acting and singing.
.
Good for her. And kudos to Lucasfilm for bringing her back.
13. It’s not about social distancing, but about the camera trick involved in having Danielle Panabaker stand next to herself.
–
14. Yeah, I don’t know how Nia could hear Brainy so well, but no I didn’t feel lost.
–
21. I think it’s probably because unlike Chyler Leigh, Eric Dane was actually there with Ellen Pompeo when they filmed the scene.
20. I’m glad Chester and the counselor thing seems to be done with the counselor doing the right thing. I think Bo and Chester will hookup only after they both have a bad night with someone else and Megan will continue to be a messy mother.
14. I thought it might have been because it had been so many months since the last new episode of Supergirl. Glad it wasn’t just me.
(I felt the same way during the season premier of The Flash, too.)
6. Had to go back and watch it again.. Without that bright Red hair, I didn’t recognize.. I guess it’s been a few years now so Molly has lost her teenage looks…
Can you TV Line sleuths find out why Megan Boone is no longer on The Blacklist?
I dont miss Megan Boone at all. I was never a big fan, but the writers have made Liz so unlikable it’s all I can do not to fast forward when she does show up. Let’s just have the show be about Red and his people and the Blacklist
So far I don’t like Supergirl this season; I realize it’s only been one episode but that one episode felt very disjointed. Hopefully future episodes will have better pacing and flow. I hope this is a good last season…
Shut up! I did NOT recognize Molly!
She looks so different!
My wife recognized Molly Quinn on The Rookie. I had to look it up on imdb because I couldn’t believe they didn’t advertise it
26. I really hated Karen and Danny having that moment. I totally get that people can be attracted in a healthy way to someone very different in age from themselves, but the very *idea* of being drawn to a boy of his age (I’m probably the same age as Karen is supposed to be) gives me the absolute creeps, and on top of that this particular pairing is so, so dark given their history.
14. Supergirl’s premiere really felt disjointed but I assume it was the producers combining parts of the last two episodes of the previous season together. That cliffhanger even felt season finale-ish and was probably a way to write off Melissa for a few episodes while on maternity leave.
23) COVID restrictions.
25) Like Bucky used his real name…
