Top 10 TV episodes I reviewed

I've been wanting to do a list like this since I did my top 10 books and manga I reviewed. I would like to note that I only allowed two episodes per series to make this list because I wanted the list to have some variety.

1. The Fades(1.04): This episode was just really interesting since it had the main character be pretty much dead for most of the episode but he was also kind of like a ghost so he could see everything that was going on this episode. I also really liked all the plot development with the fades that occurred in this episode and I believe that this is the first episode were we learn about who John is and I've always thought of him as a great character. I just overall really loved this episode but I feel that this episode and the next episode are pretty much tied.
2. The Fades(1.05): I love this episode because I felt like a lot of things happened in this episode and I liked that by the end of the episode pretty much everyone knows about what's going on. I also liked that there were quite a few character moments as well.
3. Vampire Diaries:1912(3.16): I loved this episode because it mostly focused on Damon and Stefan's relationship with each other in both the past and the present and it had little or nothing to do with Elena for once. I also just loved that Damon felt like Damon in this episode because I felt like for most of season 3 he was just trying to be who Elena wanted him to be but in this episode he didn't care about her opinion at all. I also found the twist at the end of the episode with Alaric to be very surprising and interesting.
4. Teen Wolf: Frenemy(2.06): I just pretty much loved this episode from start to finish and I love how the plot pretty just kept moving during this episode. I also found that there were quite a few character and relationship moments I loved as well but mostly I can just remember loving the episode as a whole.
5. Teen Wolf: Fury(2.10): I loved this episode because took place in a very small amount of time and revealed a lot about the Kanima and also why Matt wanted the swim team dead. I also thought it was kind of one of those episodes that pretty much set up the last two episodes of the season.
6. Revenge:Duress(1.11): I was just really entertained by Tyler completely loosing it and just generally acting insane. I just remember completely loving this episode but I'll admit that it's been awhile since I've seen it.
7. Vampire Diaries: Before Sunset(3.21):The second to the last episode of the season for the second season in a row is one of the best episodes in my opinion. I love this episode because it sets itself up for great season finale(although the season finale actually wasn't all that good) and it basically the plot moved forward a lot in this episode. I also really loved the scene where Klaus tries to get invited into the Gilbert house by doing things such as ripping apart of a fence and throwing them into the house or coming up to the house with a newspaper that's on fire, this scene is ridiculous but it's also my favorite scene of the season.
8. Revenge: Destiny(2.01): The season two premiere of Revenge was great with the plot still being interesting and there were plenty of scenes between Emily and Nolan which is my favorite relationship on the show to watch. I also loved that the show was able to make me believe that Victoria was dead for half an episode and I loved almost every plot this episode.
9. Grimm: Woman in Black(1.22): This was just I really good season finale and I love that it had like two or three cliffhangers because it just made that much more excited for the season 2 premiere which was great by the way.
10. Merlin: The Darkest Hour(4.01-.02): I thought it was a good story to set up the season although I find it a bit strange that show decided to skip over a whole year but I guess the show just likes to do that. I liked the overall plot of this episode and I especially loved all the interactions between Merlin and Arthur but I almost always love all their scenes together. I also loved that Merlin was able to talk to Lancelot about his magic throughout this episode because I just liked that Merlin had a friend that he could be honest with. I also liked that in this episode there were parts that showed that Morgana still had emotions and wasn't just some villain which alot of other episodes seem to have a problem portraying this.

There's a lot of other episodes I loved and reviewed and I'm not exactly sure of the order of this list so don't be surprised if my top episodes of 2012 list looks a lot different than this list.

TV Review: The Fades(1.05)

                                                             The Fades(1.05)Review
  • In this episode the fades are everywhere and can't be told apart from living people. I really liked the horror movie like atmosphere this episode had.
  • I really liked the relationship between John and Natalie in this episode and Natalie's character in general I'm sad that she's gone for good.
  • I'm not surprised that turning Sarah into a fade isn't going to turn out well.
  • I liked that in this episode pretty much everyone now knows something weird is going on and I'm glad they were told to leave town.
  • I liked the scene were Paul talks to his old therapist and I liked how he talked about his fear changing.
  • In liked the scene towards the end of the episode between Mac and Anna.
  • I find it interesting that Paul is the only that can kill the fades but I like that he doesn't want to just kill everyone but instead find a way to reopen accession.
  • I'm worried about Mac being kidnapped by Neil.
  • I really like John as a villain because he's very calm, creepy and intelligent and I like that he has a clear motive. I also like how John compared himself with Paul.
  • This episode or the one before it is my favorite so far.
Please tell me your thoughts on the episode.

TV Review:The Fades(1.04)

                                                            The Fades(1.04)Review
  • I thought it was really sad how Paul had to just watch everyone and I was mad when Neil refused to tell Mac that Paul said it wasn't his fault.
  • I was really intrigued by John and find him to be very scary with the whole eating human flesh even when he's in human form and that he's immortal.
  • I was angry when I found out that the angelics refused to help rebuild the acsenion ladder even though the fades begged them to.
  • I feel bad for the fades not only not being able to touch the rest of the world but also having to age as well.
  • I understood why Paul would lead John to the angelics but it didn't surprise me that things end really badly.
  • I really liked the friendship between mac and Paul in this episode because it was easy to tell how much the two of them really cared for each other.
  • I'm glad that in the end Paul didn't die and I liked that Anna was willing to take part in the spell even though that's not what ended up saving him in the end.
  • I felt that all the acting was really good in this episode.
  • I felt that this is the best episode so far.
Please tell me your thoughts on the episode.

TV Review: The Fades(1.03)

                                                             The Fades(1.03)Review
  • I thought it was really weird that Paul grew wings when he was mastrubating.
  • I was sad that everyone forgot Mac's birthday but I'm glad Paul tried to make up for it the next day.
  • I felt bad for Paul when his sister was insulting him and I was weirded out that he was able to zip her mouth shut some how, I thought it was weird that his sister only reaction was to call him a freak.
  • I found it interesting that there's alot more angelics then we orignally thought there were and it's interesting that their all gathering together now.
  • It was interesting to see that Paul is now able to get vision while he's awake and they give him seizures.
  • I'm a little worry that Paul may die and I really hope doesn't.
  • I'm interested in the man from Paul's vision who awoke from that sack thing at the end of the episode. Also I was happy to see Joe Dempise in something again I know him from playing Chris on Skins and Will from that one episode of Merlin.
Please tell me your thoughts on the episode.

TV Review:The Fades(1.02)

                                                                           The Fades(1.02)Review
  • I really enjoyed Mac giving a recap at the beginning of the episode.
  • I found it really disturbing that the fades eat people alive in order to be able to touch.
  • I was glad to see Paul struggle with trying to say goodbye and in the end I like that he choose to try and live two separate lives.
  • I continue to love the random conversations and the friendship between Paul and Mac.
  • I liked that we got to learn more about Mac and his home life.
  • I find it interesting that Paul seems to be able to heal things at certain times and I wonder what makes him so special.
  • I also continue to like relationship between Paul and Jay.
  • I felt bad for Sara having to watch her husband with someone else but I wonder if she's going to be important to the overall plot.
  • I was worried about Neil towards the end of the episode but it appears he has lived through the attack.
Please tell me your thoughts on this episode.

TV Review: The Fades(1.01)

                                                                  The Fades(1.01)Review
  • I found the whole idea of the show to be really interesting especially the part were the fades are just dead people who didn’t ascend but there neither good nor bad just dead. I’m interested in finding out what the creatures that attack at the began and end of the episode is and why it’s different then the other fades.
  • I really liked the friendship between Paul and Mac. I enjoy there conversations like when Mac keeps talking about Paul’s problems in movie terms and when Paul talks about who he wants to write his life story.
  • I really liked the character of Paul and I liked the way he came to terms with seeing the dead and possibly the future. I also felt really bad for him in the scene with his therapist when says he just wants to not see things.
  • I liked the scene between Paul and his sister’s friend were they talk about being different.
  • For some reason I like Paul’s sister who comes off as a dumb bitch but maybe that’s why I find her entertaining also she’s played by Lilly Loveless who I know from Skins.
  • I liked that there’s already a group of people with the sight who are fighting the fades and I’m glad that the one guy seems like he’s going to be a mentor for Paul.
  • I’m curious as to why Sara was unable to cross over and I wonder what kind of role she’s going to play since she’s already dead.
Please tell me your thoughts.
