Jane the Virgin Chapter 26 recap: He’s the One

Jane and her bestie for life Lina have started to drift apart ever since Jane had Mateo. Now that Mateo runs Jane’s life, Jane can’t remember things like Lina’s birthday party, which  she promised to plan. Looks like this week’s episode of Jane the Virgin will show you how to keep your friends after having a baby. Jane still hasn’t told Rafael how she really feels ever since they kissed. When he texted her that he wanted to kiss her again “very badly,” she could only think of sending a wide-smiling emoji. I doubt that sent any clear message to […]

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 4 – I’m Going on a Date With Josh’s Friend!

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 4: “I’m Going on a Date With Josh’s Friend!” The CW, original airdate Mon. 11/2/15 (For all Crazy Ex recaps, click here.) In every episode, Rebecca finds an even odder way to try to wedge herself further into Josh’s life; this one is no exception as she and Paula are trying out their skateboarding skills at a skate park (they watched some skating tutorials on YouTube, but I’m not sure where they got the idea for their clothes, because they — especially Paula — look ridiculous). Not only does Josh take his nephew to the skate […]

Jane the Virgin Chapter 25 recap: Prerequisites and Co-parenting

Traditions in the Villanueva family are very important. That’s why, in this week’s episode of Jane the Virgin, everything needs to be in place for Mateo’s baptism. One small problem is that Rafael hasn’t spoken with Michael about being Mateo’s godfather since Jane revealed that she loved both of them. Rafael still seems okay with the plan, but we’ll have to see what Michael says. I don’t think Rafael heard much of what Jane said over the phone since he was in shock at the doctor revealing that Petra is indeed pregnant. Yikes! Since there’s no good news developing from […]

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 3 – I Hope Josh Comes to My Party!

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 3: “I Hope Josh Comes to My Party!” The CW, original airdate Mon. 10/26/15 (For all Crazy Ex recaps, click here.) The third episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend starts off with Rebecca, in crazy ex fashion, stuffing some chicken bones — or rather, an entire rotisserie chicken — down her garbage disposal. A concerned Josh shows up, in response to her phone call that there’s an emergency, and he’s brought White Josh with as a buffer, so Valencia can’t get mad that he’s with Rebecca. Rebecca is less than thrilled to see White Josh (she wants to be […]

Jane the Virgin Chapter 24 recap: Poor Sucker

This week on Jane the Virgin, Jane’s family learns about the ugly side of motherhood. Since Jane is so focused on being the perfect mother for her new baby, Mateo, she doesn’t mind skipping a few shower days … or weeks. That has to be one nasty stank! In order to politely suggest that Jane wash away her stench, Xo makes Jane take her two boyfriends out for lunch. Yeah, she’s still sorting out the whole ‘who do I love’ thing. As Petra is trying to keep calm during her weird fertility acupuncture session, Scott barges in to let her […]

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 2 – Josh’s Girlfriend Is Really Cool!

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 2: “Josh’s Girlfriend Is Really Cool!” The CW, original airdate Mon. 10/19/15 (For all Crazy Ex recaps, click here.) Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 2 aired tonight, and the series continues to crack me up. Tonight’s episode, “Josh’s Girlfriend Is Really Cool” in a nutshell: Rebecca meets (and desperately tries to befriend) Josh’s girlfriend, Valencia, and we gain a little more insight into Rebecca’s relationship with Paula. Greg’s still, for whatever reason, into Rebecca, and Rebecca’s still crazy funny. Side note: Before I dive into the recap, can I just say how happy I am to have a […]

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 1 – Josh Just Happens to Live Here!

Recap: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Episode 1: “Josh Just Happens to Live Here!” The CW, original airdate Mon. 10/12/15 (For all Crazy Ex recaps, click here.) The long-awaited CW hourlong musical comedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend premiered tonight, and in my humble opinion, it was fantastic. The show’s co-creator and star Rachel Bloom is hilarious — and I already can’t wait for next week. For those of you who missed the premiere and plan on watching it later, go no further in this blog, as I’m recapping the whole kit and caboodle. Spoilers abound! (But when you’re done watching, I beg you in my own […]

Jane the Virgin Chapter 23 recap: Jane the Miracle

So, who else is thrilled to welcome Jane the Virgin back for its second season? I could go on and on about how amazing Gina Rodriguez is, but that might get a bit embarrassing. So lets say that winning a Golden Globe for her role as Jane and the show being nominated for another Golden Globe for Best Television Series, Comedy or Musical is proof enough how wonderful this show is. We start off “Chapter Twenty-Three” where we left off last season: Sin Rostro took baby Mateo! When a nurse steps into Jane’s room to let her know she’s ready to take Mateo for his hearing test, Jane tells her that […]

Rachel Bloom Sparkles In The CW’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

There are two schools of people: those who wish that life could spontaneously erupt into a musical production number, and those who don’t. “And those people who don’t should all die in a fire,” deadpans Rachel Bloom, the star, co-creator and executive producer of The CW’s hilarious new comedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. In the series, Bloom’s character — you guessed it — launches into elaborate musical productions, including one where she soars above a crowd, riding a giant pretzel.

The Flash Season 2 premiere recap: “The Man Who Saved Central City”

As The Flash Season 2 kicked off (following a quick overview of what happened last season), we find it is 6 months after the Singularity, and we can assume that Barry (Grant Gustin), as The Flash, is, indeed, as the title of this episode indicates, The Man Who Saved Central City. We learn that the city is holding a Flash Day in honor of the hero who saved them, but as Barry has flashbacks throughout the episode, we learn at what cost it came, as Ronnie (Robbie Amell) and Eddie (Rick Cosnett) both appeared to perish during the battle to stop Wells […]
