While it might not have been the strongest of Legacies four seasons, the final season does pay off on the promise introduced in The Originals with the death of Hope (Danielle Rose Russell) and the rebirth of the Tribrid who kills Malivore, and Landon (Aria Shahghasemi), and unlocks the final third of her powers when she comes back as a vampire. Most of the season plays on the fallout of Hope’s reemergence who returns without her humanity becoming a dangerous frenemy to the school for most of the season.

The Umbrella Academy – Wedding at the End of the World

  • Title: The Umbrella Academy – Wedding at the End of the World
  • IMDb: link

In the calm prior to the final two episodes of the season, with nearly the entire world swallowed up by nothingness, Luther (Tom Hopper) and Sloane (Genesis Rodriguez) decide to get married. The episode offers us a bachelor party, the wedding and reception, and a nice family moment that even Ben (Justin H. Min) gets let into. We also see Allison (Emmy Raver-Lampman) remain a bitch and refuse to reconcile with Viktor (Elliot Page), and a drunken Five (Aidan Gallagher) gets a glimpse of something which will impact the final two episodes of the season, the journey into the Hotel Oblivion, and beyond. Aside from the fact the all reality is ending, it’s a fun and lighthearted episode, although dark times aren’t far away.

NCIS: Hawai’i – Primal Fear

/ / Television Reviews
  • Title: NCIS: Hawai’i – Primal Fear
  • IMDb: link

A couple weeks too early for Halloween, “Primal Fear” offers a search for a serial killer who scares his victims to death after spiking their adrenaline and causing a coronary. The less-than-scary visage of the killer (i.e. random guy in a Halloween mask) doesn’t help sell the premise nor does the rather obvious suspect who is immediately identifiable as the likely killer after showing up on-screen. The episode also sees the return of Coast Guard Special Agent Neil Pike (Mark Gessner) and delivers on the breadcrumbs with Tennant (Vanessa Lachey) meeting his son’s older girlfriend (Sierra Swartz) leading to concerns she decides not the share.
