“I’m not worried about Maze. I’m worried about Canada.”

Lucifer - Mr. and Mrs. Mazikeen Smith TV review

Feeling a bit restless, and taking advice from Lucifer (Tom Ellis), Mazikeen (Lesley-Ann Brandt) heads to Canada after the most dangerous bounty she can find. After terrorizing Canada for a few days, Maze catches up with Ben Rivers (Chris McKenna) only to discover he’s more illusive, albeit less murderous, than she’s been led to believe which only makes the chase more spirited… but not in the way Lucifer had intended.

Once Upon a Time - A Pirate's Life TV review

Emma (Jennifer Morrison) returns for flashbacks of Henry‘s (Andrew J. West) adventures in an episode that gives us two different Captain Hooks (Colin O’Donoghue) and reveals the one trapped in Hyperion Heights may not be the one viewers have gotten to know over the show’s previous seasons. Meanwhile, back in the real world, Rogers (O’Donoghue) is tested by his partner as Henry’s appearances make Victoria Belfry (Gabrielle Anwar) increasingly uncomfortable.

“I thought this would be a little more reverential, less angel wing dumpster fire.”

Lucifer - The One with the Baby Carrot TV review

While Lucifer (Tom Ellis) and Chloe (Lauren German) investigate the murder of a comedian whose jokes were stolen by one of his colleagues, the show continues to lay the groundwork of the mysterious Sinnerman. Despite the lack of evidence that the mystery man even exists, Lieutenant Marcus Pierce (Tom Welling) confides in Lucifer that he’s had run-ins with the Sinnerman before and warns him off continuing down a dangerous path. While I still think there’s a 50/50 chance Pierce will be revealed to be the devil doppelganger at some point this season, making him and ally of Lucifer is an interesting path to go down. Either way, I’m curious to see where the pair’s secret investigation takes them.

Once Upon a Time - Hyperion Heights television review

Set years after the Sixth Season finale, Once Upon a Time returns by plagiarizing itself as a young girl named Lucy (Alison Fernandez) shows up on the doorstep of an adult Henry (Andrew J. West) claiming that Cinderella (Dania Ramirez) is her mother, Henry is her father, and an entire city of fairy tale characters is in danger. The Seventh Season premiere, missing a good chunk of the show’s core cast, is a lukewarm reboot for the show lacking the magic of the original. Not only are Emma, Snow White, Prince Charming, and others missing, but even the town of Storybrooke has been replaced with a Seattle borough known as Hyperion Heights.

Lucifer - They're Back, Aren't They? TV review

Season Three begins with a twist. While the cliffhanger of Lucifer‘s (Tom Ellis) kidnapping at the end of Season Two is central to the plot of the season premiere, it’s not what we expect. Lucifer returns after two days in the desert to find that no one missed him. Chloe (Lauren German) just assumed he flaked again and doesn’t put much credence in his story. The discovery of a murdered man buried in the desert does help convince the detective that there is a case, although Lucifer has other problems to deal with as well besides his partner’s distrust.
