Kung Fu – Beginning

The season finale, and possibly series finale, of Kung Fu wraps up Xiao’s (Jennifer Khoe) storyline. It’s a fine, if not all that memorable, ending to a lackluster season. Not knowing if the show will be renewed for another season, the episode ends with extended epilogues for all characters wrapping up various loose threads and putting Nicky (Olivia Liang) on the road walking into the sunset in an homage to the original Kung Fu series. Should the show return, it could mean another return home for Nicky to once again reset back to the status quo or a “Beginning” of something new.

Moon Knight #21

Following up on the attacks on Moon Knight‘s former friends and associates, Moon Knight #21 focuses more on his current sidekicks than our main character as Reese and Soldier head out dancing at a club one night only to find themselves fighting for their lives against an angry mob turned crazed by a yet-not-disclosed sound weapon from a not-yet-disclosed super-villain working for a not-yet-disclosed mastermind targeting Moon Knight and his friends.

NCIS: Hawai’i – Family Ties

We get a couple of storylines in “Family Ties.” The first involves NCIS investigating a list of burglaries and pranks which they trace back to a smart but troubled teen. They aren’t the only one after him as one of his targets is out for revenge as well. The bizarre nature of the crimes provides some fun early on. The series of events also allows for the return of both Boom Boom (Sharif Atkins) and Bam Bam (Cher Alvarez) who both continue having fun at Kai‘s (Alex Tarrant) expense.

Star Wars: The Bad Batch – The Outpost

“The Outpost” becomes the second episode of the season to focus on Crosshair (Dee Bradley Baker) rather than the Bad Batch as we catch up with the former member of the squad and his struggles working for the Empire which is increasingly uninterested in clone soldiers. Sent to an out-of-the-way Imperial depo, it doesn’t take long for Crosshairs to grow impatient with the racist Lieutenant Nolan (Crispin Freeman) who treats the clones as out-of-date equipment he’s stuck with using. Crosshairs manages to make a friend on his journey, but that will be short-lived given the suicide mission they are both sent on (and denied medical attention after making it back). The episode is far from subtle, but gets the general idea across, if a bit hamfistedly, while suggesting there may be a path of redemption for Crosshairs.
