Legends of Tomorrow - Meat: The Legends television review

The search for the missing Sara Lance (Caity Lotz) continues as the Legends track an alien to 1950s San Bernadino in the hopes that Spooner (Lisseth Chavez) can communicate with it and lead the team back to their missing captain. There’s strong horror vibes in the creepy “Meat: The Legends,” without ever capturing that old 50ss sci-fi B-movie vibe, as the search for the alien leads the team to a local burger joint and the secret sauce which turns out to be made from the secretions of a giant alien wasp gestating in a cocoon.

MacGyver - Soft Touch television review

Throwback Tuesday takes us back to the original improvisational MacGyver (Richard Dean Anderson) armed only with genius-level intellect, a Swiss Army knife, and whatever he can cobble together to solve the problems of the week. “Soft Touch” offers the return of Penny Parker (Teri Hatcher) who MacGyver finds living in his apartment after bringing a Russian defector (Elya Baskin) to the United States. The trouble from episode comes not from those seeking the defector but instead an assassination plot which Penny unwittingly stumbles upon when starting her new job as a singing telegram girl (mostly due to the fact that every house in the suburbs looks exactly the same).
