Almost Paradise - Old Times

Setting up events for the season finale, “Old Times” features Alex (Christian Kane) looking into a murder at the Villegas Casino after both Ann (Max Collins) and the local authorities asked him to stay away from this case. Alex traces the unusual style of the murder back to that of a longtime assassin who he links to an elderly hotel guest (Kim Knuckey) and his wife (Carolyn Bock). What he doesn’t realize is the elderly couple are stringing him along and that he, not Ann, is their target. Alex’s interactions with the couple, while honestly liking the pair but attempting to pump them for information, are the highlights of the episode.

Ahsoka - Dreams and Madness

The penultimate episode of Ahsoka confirms the show’s purpose as a prequel and filler to the “real story” Disney will no doubt get around to eventually. It’s also important to note that, as in the case of many episodes of the series, there are absolutely no consequences for any characters in this episode. What “Part Seven” does offer is some Sabine (Natasha Liu Bordizzo) and Ezra Bridger (Eman Esfandi), who apparently has gotten less adept with the Force since we saw him last, time together with her being more than a bit coy about how she managed to reach him, Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson) making to the other galaxy and eventually to the planet for a reunion, and Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen) using the resources as his disposal to stall the Jedi providing more time for his escape.

The Irrational - Pilot

The Irrational is the latest entry in the long line of police consultant procedurals with college professor Alec Mercer (Jesse L. Martin) helping the FBI, and his ex-wife (Maahra Hill), on cases the first of which is a former soldier confessing to the murder of his ex-girlfriend (Soma Chhaya) who Alec is convinced is innocent. The setup takes elements from various detective and consultant shows over the years, who often explains to others (and the audience) what he sees that they are missing, while also  including a dark personal mystery which haunts out genius professor and will likely be the thread woven in over the course of the series.
