Pretty Little Liars - Playtime television review

Pretty Little Liars returns for its final stretch of episodes with “Playtime” which deals mainly from the fallout of the season’s mid-season finale which puts both Spencer (Troian Bellisario) and Toby (Keegan Allen) in the hospital, leaves Aria (Lucy Hale) unsure of her relationship with Ezra‘s (Ian Harding), answers some questions about the truth of Mary Drake‘s (Andrea Parker) statements concerning one of the Liars, and confirms that neither Noel Kahn‘s (Brant Daugherty) nor Jenna Marshall (Tammin Sursok) is A.D. There’s quite a bit of drama in “Playtime,” but other than setting up A.D.’s final gambit (which involves an overly elaborate game board to dish out rewards and punishment) the Liars spend the majority of the episode dealing with their own drama rather than that caused by their unknown adversary.

Hawaii Five-0 - Waimaka 'ele'ele television review

While the episode’s backstory allows the show to work in Adam‘s (Ian Anthony Dale) current job, and his discovery of a bone at construction gives him reason to suspect that human remains may have been buried there, the episode’s main focus involves a group of former soldiers turned bank robbers whose latest score causes the death of a Pearl Harbor veteran on the way home with his granddaughter (Lexi Atkins). Dylan Bruno becomes the latest Numb3rs alumni to make an appearance on the show as the leader of the robbers who have deeply personal reasons for their crimes and have no intention of being scared off by Five-0.

The Blacklist: Redemption - Whitehall television review

The Blacklist: Redemption wraps up its First Season with a two-part episode. We open with Scottie (Famke Janssen) confronting her son about his true identity… and then breaking any potential trust between the pair by having him tortured and chased around the city, cementing whose side he’ll choose throughout the events of the finale. Putting all cards on the table, Howard (Terry O’Quinn) reveals himself to the world forcing a board meeting and providing Tom (Ryan Eggold) and Nez (Tawny Cypress), who like Tom chooses Mr. Hargraves over Mrs. Hargraves, the necessary distraction to sneak into Halcyon and smuggle out Richard Whitehall (Clarke Peters). The episode features a couple of cameos from The Blacklist including Liz (Megan Boone) and Harold (Harry Lennix), but the main focus remains Tom and his choice to help Howard stop his mother.
