My performance of the week ending 3/14/20 on TV goes to…

Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler on AMC’s Better Call Saul season 5.

The entire cast of Better Call Saul is extremely talented and it’s difficult to outshine the infamous scene stealer himself, Bob Odenkirk as Saul Goodman, but somehow Rhea Seehorn’s performance each week continues to move me. Kim Wexler is the heart of the show and she is always so brilliant and believable.

**Please note some spoilers are ahead if you are not caught up on the series.**

While Saul (formerly known as Jimmy) is known to cut through some red tape to make things happen, Kim always tries to do things by the book. Sure, she certainly has had some fantastic cons with Jimmy, but you truly empathize with her internal struggle to be taken seriously as a lawyer.

I honestly don’t know anyone who works harder and sometimes it takes a toll on her, but she is so driven to fight for things in the right way. However, Kim recognizes that following the book doesn’t always pay off even when she has gone through every possible scenario and detail. I actually get so annoyed with the team from Mesa Verde and how they treat Kim.

They take advantage of her and don’t see how valuable she truly is. In season 5, episodes 3 and 4, Kim tries to reason with a man who refuses to leave his home, which is on land owned by Mesa Verde. Kim stands her ground, but also gets a wake-up call when the man asks her about her own morals.

Kim does everything in her power to try and find another way, but when her ideas are dismissed, she starts to realize that perhaps she does need Jimmy/Saul to get some real justice.

Kim’s moral compass is what makes her such a likable character. We accept and know that Jimmy/Saul is going to entertain us with his schemes, but Kim wavers back and forth between what is actually right and wrong. Out of all the characters on the show, Kim is the one I relate to the most. She is so real and convincing and my heart goes out to her whenever something bad happens to her because she doesn’t deserve it.

What’s next for Kim Wexler? We’ll have to see how her team-up with Saul pans out, but I’m hoping that Kim can find her way and earn the respect and recognition that she deserves. I’m also wondering what’s next for Kim and Saul. I think that they are such an adorable couple and almost remind me of a modern day Bonnie and Clyde in the attorney world, but we also know that Kim is not mentioned or seen in the Breaking Bad series.

Was it a bad breakup or do they part on good terms? I’m not sure, but it’s clear that Saul needs Kim in his life. They both are conflicted in different ways and somehow bring out the best in one another. I’m hoping that with the series wrapping up next year, we will get some kind of concrete answers and closure for them.

Since we do flash forward to the future quite a bit, there is still hope for Saul to make things right with Kim, but I am also nervous about what actually split them up in the first place because it honestly breaks my heart even though I don’t know what actually happened.

Through it all, this series continues to be one of the best on television and Rhea Seehorn shines every single week with her incredible performances. Kim Wexler is one of the strongest female characters on television right now and she is an inspiration to women everywhere. Let’s just hope that she doesn’t get caught in the middle of another mess because she deserves the world and then some.

Stay tuned for a recognized performance on TV each week!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Fear the Walking Dead” season 5 episode 11: “You Made It Your Own”

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching AMC’s Fear the Walking Dead season 5 episode 11, I realized that sometimes the universe may be trying to tell us something, but perhaps we need to see it for ourselves in order for it to truly resonate with us. Whether it’s a moment of self-reflection or a meaningful message, just taking that moment means that we are still here. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet.

In last night’s episode, “You’re Still Here,” Alicia and Victor try to track down the person who painted the trees, but Alicia is not exactly sure what she is truly searching for. Meanwhile, Morgan and Al’s mission is interrupted when they run into Logan and his gang, as we start to learn more about his bigger plan. My top 5 moments from Fear the Walking Dead season 5 episode 11 are:

“I just know how I feel when I see those trees.”

In this episode, we catch up with Alicia and Victor. Alicia is still having trouble taking out walkers and she focuses her attention on tracking down the person who has been painting the messages on the trees. Victor asks Alicia what this is really going to do for her and Alicia is not exactly sure, but she recognizes that it is important.

Alicia says, “They see the world in a way I want to see it,” hoping that she can find the answers she is looking for by talking to this person. We know that Alicia’s encounter with the radioactive walker has traumatized her, but let’s hope that this mission can get her back on track because Victor is not always going to be around with perfect timing to help save her.

“You’re really gonna make me work for it, huh?”

Meanwhile, we also catch up with Morgan and Al in this episode. Morgan seems grateful for the distraction, but Al senses that something is up and tries to get Morgan to open up about it. Morgan initially tells Al that there is nothing to talk about, but this one-on-one talk is interrupted when Alicia calls them over the walkie for backup.

Later in the episode, Morgan does open up to Al and she reminds him that he can tell her about his wife and son. This is a huge step for Morgan and I am glad to see that he is finally willing to share something real and close to his heart with the people around him.

“What I’m doing is bigger than you.”

Is it though? Logan listens in on Alicia’s call out to Morgan and Al and shows up with the truck to get in Morgan’s way. Logan recognizes that they will not want to risk an innocent person’s life and asks him where the oil fields are. Morgan tries to ask Logan what he needs the gas for and we still don’t get a concrete answer here. Logan dances around the answer and tells him that he will be helping people, but not in a way Morgan would approve of…so what does that mean? Is Logan looking to blow something up? What is his real plan?

We still don’t know and at the end of the episode, Logan breaks into the vault, looking for Clayton’s journals, but is out of luck for now. Logan is getting a little bit too personal; however, as he taunts Morgan by telling him he couldn’t help his wife and son, which sparks some untapped anger within Morgan. Morgan is able to walk away from this, but Logan now has his tape, so it looks like he plans on using personal information about Morgan against him. How will this all play out? I’m not sure, but it doesn’t look like Logan is going away anytime soon.

“People are people.”

After having his own run-in with Logan in a previous episode, Wes is back and radios over to Alicia and Victor for help. Wes seems guarded, but does open up a little bit about his brother who died and Alicia attempts to form a connection with him. Wes reminds her that people are people and that they live in a world now where “we shoot, we kill.” Alicia tries to tell him that it doesn’t have to be this way, but is Wes truly ready to do what is right?

Wes is focused on getting back his manuscript, which is apparently good enough to die over so I’m intrigued, but when Alicia reads the very end, she discovers that Wes is the one who painted the trees. Will we see Wes again? I’m not sure, but I think that he is an interesting and unique character and I would like to see more of him.

“I’m not gonna find what I’m looking for from anybody else…”

Both Morgan and Alicia do a lot of self-reflecting in this episode. Al tells Morgan that “what we lost doesn’t define us” and suggests that maybe it’s about what we do. Meanwhile, Alicia takes a moment to paint her own tree and leaves the message: “No one’s gone until they’re gone,” which clearly touches Morgan.

It’s one thing to say something out loud, but when you see the words in front of you, they have the power to become something else. They inspire you and bring out something within you that perhaps you thought was lost a long time ago. They remind you that there is always the opportunity to do better and to start a new path.

At the very end of the episode, Alicia is able to kill a walker and tells Victor that she is good. I’m happy that she was able to find this strength within herself and I thought that the connection between her and Morgan was done beautifully, seamlessly connecting these two characters who are trying so hard to keep going. Let’s just hope that Logan doesn’t taint everything they have been trying to accomplish. Stay tuned!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Fear the Walking Dead” season 4 episode 16 season finale: “We’re Coming For You”

Happy Tuesday TV fans! After watching AMC’s Fear the Walking Dead season 4 episode 16 season finale, I think that John Dorie got it absolutely right when he says that “Some fish in this world you can’t catch no matter what you dangle in front of them.” So do you leave them be or do you keep trying, even though you know what the outcome might be? Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “…I Lose Myself,” we catch up with Al and witness her struggle to escape the walkers who are surrounding her at the parking garage at every corner. Meanwhile, Morgan makes the decision to go after Martha alone, promising his friends that he will catch up to them, but they are all in for a threat that no one saw coming. My top 5 moments from Fear the Walking Dead season 4 episode 16 season finale are:

“I want you to give him a message.”

In the beginning of the episode, Al is surrounded by walkers and ends up in a parking garage near the hospital. Al tries to get a message to Morgan and the others over the Walkie, but is not able to get through to them. Martha catches up to Al; however, and unleashes poor zombie Jimbo on her, but Al is able to stop the immediate threat on her life. However, she hesitates when faced against Martha, who knocks her out. Martha later tells Al that she thinks she is strong and that she watched her tape. She uses Al as a message for Morgan and includes a tape of her very own for him. Even though Al is strong, she does still hold on to her humanity, which is the main reason why she hesitated when it came to eliminating Martha. Luckily Al is all right for now, but that was a close call for sure. Great to have you back Al!

“Leave them be.”

John Dorie gives Morgan some really strong advice about what to do about Martha, but Morgan insists on trying anyway. During the entire season, I have been very touched by the strong friendship between John and Morgan. John later radios out to Morgan that he is the strongest person he knows, remembering that he was there when Morgan was at his breaking point. John may be the first person who really got through to Morgan after he left Alexandria and has become a strong motivator for him now. John is a true believer and even though his own faith has been tested, he stays true to his positivism, which is infectious to everyone around him…in a good way.

“Have you seen the movie selection here?”

John and June finally have a moment together when they are browsing the shelves at the truck stop. This gives June a sense of nostalgia and John teasingly comments that the movie selection is a bit lacking, however. June finally opens up to John and lets her guard down, explaining that she was afraid that he would realize that she wasn’t who he thought she was. John touches our hearts and souls when he says, “I know you. Doesn’t take a whole day to recognize sunshine.” As corny as it may sound, it is so true to who John Dorie is and you can’t help but smile here and cheer when these two finally embrace and share a passionate kiss. It’s about time you two!

“You either kill me or I kill you.”

After watching Martha’s message, Morgan decides to go after her alone. Morgan explains that he understands Martha because he used to be her. He further reveals that she thinks killing is the only way, which is something that still haunts Morgan now. Martha is severely injured and Morgan offers to help her. He finds her at mile marker 54, lying next to her husband’s grave and Martha does open up to Morgan about her husband in the police car. Martha reveals just a sliver of hope here, but she refuses to let Morgan make her be weak. When Morgan tries to hand her the medicine, she attacks him and the car is run off the road. Martha has been given so many chances, but Morgan is still not able to end her life. Even after being badly injured himself, he tells himself that he has to keep going, especially when he learns that Martha has poisoned his friends by putting antifreeze in the drinking water. Morgan comes very close to killing Martha, but spots the reflection of “I lose people…I lose myself,” written on his forehead. Even though it was not Martha’s intention, this actually saved her life, as it was a reminder to Morgan about who he was before and who he can still be now. Morgan chooses life and desperately tries to make it to his friends on foot before it’s too late.

“Hang in there. We’re coming for you.”

Morgan finally gets through to his friends over the Walkie and June reveals that they need ethanol to counteract the antifreeze poisoning. Luckily there is a truck filled with it right outside. Seems simple enough, right? Well we know that nothing comes easy on Fear TWD. The group does a fantastic job of distracting the walkers and making it to the truck and Al unleashes her fury on the horde by opening fire on them. Unfortunately, the truck begins leaking out the ethanol they need and it looks like all hope is lost. Just when it seems like they are all running out of time for good, Morgan heroically shows up with Jim’s old beer truck, ready to help save his friends. Sarah comments that Jimbo has saved their lives twice now. Morgan eliminated walker Jimbo back at the police car, but hopefully he can rest in peace knowing that he truly did save his friends. In a heartwarming moment, Victor also opens up to Alicia and is happy to finally have a new drinking partner, realizing that Madison would want it to be this way. Morgan does ultimately head back to check on Martha and discovers her bloody arm hanging from the cuff. Walker Martha is stumbling down the street and Morgan eliminates her as a threat once and for all. So long Martha. I can’t say that we’ll miss you. Everyone is ready to head off to Virginia, but Morgan decides that he doesn’t want to go there anymore and takes them to the Denim Factor that “Polar Bear,” otherwise known as Clayton, used. Morgan explains that no one is being forced to stay, but that they can truly do something great here. Alicia adds that they can build this into something more and that’s how you help people, truly trying to reestablish her mother’s vision. They decide to start with the tapes and find people out there who need their help, allowing Clayton’s work to continue on, holding on to the hope that there is still good in the world. Even though it seems like they are surrounded by death and despair, Morgan and the others have learned the importance of helping others and that it does matter. At the end of the episode, Morgan tells anyone who may be listening, “Hang in there. We’re coming for you,” hopefully sparking the belief in anyone who may have lost their way. The season finale ends on a positive note, rather than a major cliffhanger, which was actually refreshing. The whole concept of helping others has been present during season 4 and this was the perfect way to honor that and inspire hope in fans everywhere that Morgan Jones and the rest of the group will continue to try and bring some life back into the world…one box at a time. Stay tuned!

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own theories and thoughts on Fear the Walking Dead in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Once Upon a Time” season 7 episode 21: “We Don’t Negotiate with Villains”

After watching ABC’s Once Upon a Time season 7 episode 21 last night, Henry talks about the importance of finding one’s happy ending the right way. Unfortunately not everyone shares this belief, which we quickly learn during the first half of the series finale. While sometimes patience, hope, and good deeds can be enough to fulfill our days, some characters are not able to overcome the overwhelming sense of defeat and loneliness within them. Perhaps we all have the potential to become a villain, only we surround ourselves with people we love and things that make us happy to remind us to stay on a good path. It’s hard not to be sympathetic to those who wander off the path, however, which can lead to darkness. While these villains may not realize the damage that they are causing before it’s too late, it’s up to the heroes still existing to fight for good to prevail. And it’s also important to know when to ask for help, as none of us are in this alone. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet. In last night’s episode, “Homecoming,” wish Rumple pays Henry a visit and offers him a deal. Meanwhile, Rogers/Nook promises Tilly/Alice that he will find a way for their own curse to be broken, Tiana/Sabine has doubts about her purpose, and Rumple takes on the greatest enemy he will ever face…himself. My top 5 moments from Once Upon a Time season 7 episode 21 are:

Wish Rumple threatens Henry.

Just as the curse is broken and everyone’s memory is restored, it seems like our happy ending is right around the corner. Only there is one more test that everyone must face in order to obtain it. Henry is beyond happy to be reunited with his wife, Ella and his daughter, Lucy, but wish Rumple takes advantage of his love for them and traps them in the wish realm. He threatens Henry and explains that he will destroy his family unless he retrieves the Dark One’s dagger and brings it to him. Henry finds reinforcements when he goes to Regina, Rumple, and Nook for help. Regina reminds him that “we don’t negotiate with villains” and talks about the importance of sticking by your family and protecting it no matter what. They decide to go into the wish realm to save Ella and Lucy, using Alice’s cracked looking glass as a portal. While they do not really know what to expect on the other side of the portal, they are ready to face whatever or whoever gets in their way, including some familiar faces.

Old friends and enemies return.

In wish realm, Henry and the others come across several familiar faces that will have OUAT fans everywhere cheering. While the end of the show is near, it’s important that we look back on all of our past friends and enemies who have shaped the show and made it what it is today. While Nook gets some help from our old friend, Ariel, other not so friendly faces are lurking behind the corner. Peter Pan warns them as soon as they get to wish realm and Cruella holds on to her fur coat, but not her hair color unfortunately, as Henry later strips the black from her hair, which is the ink he needs for the Author’s Pen. While we know more familiar faces will be surfacing in next week’s series finale, these characters are not to be forgotten, as they provide us with a reminder and a sense of nostalgia of the earlier days of Once Upon a Time.

Rumple vs Rumple.

Rumple decides to have a talk with himself. He explains that he doesn’t want to force the dagger on an innocent and is happy to hand it over to him. He thinks that wish Rumple could be the loophole he has been searching for all along. But is he really ready to make a deal with his darker self? Rumple explains that the one enemy he can never defeat is himself and is ready to get the happy ending he has been searching for. However, Rumple has a trick up his sleeve, as he uses the squid ink Ariel gave them to trap him. Rumple is ready to defeat his alter-ego, but Regina walks in and wish Rumple escapes. While we know it can’t be that easy to defeat wish Rumple, it’s important that our Rumple is taking the necessary steps to finally do the right thing after repeating his mistakes over and over. Rumple truly loves Belle but is willing to sacrifice reuniting with her if it means saving his family. This transformation reminds us that it’s never too late to do the right thing and that having people in our lives who support us can make all the difference.

“None of my wishes came true.”

Like our version of Rumple, wish Rumple has not revealed his true intentions up front. We learn that he has another agenda and it involves Henry. Henry’s emotions are running high, as he is worried about the safety of his family, clouding his good judgment in the process. He makes the rash decision to obtain the Author’s Pen and is warned by the author to use it to record, but not create. Wish Rumple has been after the Author’s Pen this entire time and uses wish realm Henry as his instrument of destruction. Even though our version of Henry turned down Rumple’s deal, wish realm Henry never had a single wish come true and is broken from this. He is desperate enough to make a deal with wish Rumple and to rewrite history. We know this can be extremely dangerous and it’s up to our favorite heroes to put a stop to this before all of their stories are rewritten. After all, words are very powerful, but the intent behind them is what gives them their true meaning.

Tilly and Margot are ready to save the day.

Tilly/Alice gets a pain within her and recognizes immediately that something has gone terribly wrong. She and Margot/Robin go to Tiana for help. Tiana has been having doubts about her new role as a queen, but puts this aside when she stands in front of her people and asks them for help. Her words are inspiring and remind us that you don’t always have to possess magic in order to make a difference. Tiana’s words are enough and a magic bean is turned over to help Tilly and Margot get to their friends to save the day. Only they need to make a quick stop first to get some help from some friends. Next stop Storybrooke! I am beyond excited for the conclusion of the series finale next week, especially since some of our favorite characters will be returning. While it’s bitter sweet to see the ending finally arrive, I cannot wait to see how it all unfolds. How about you? Stay tuned!

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Once Upon a Time in the comments section below. Happy viewing!

Ranking the top 5 Most Fashionable Female Characters on TV: “Fashion is art and culture and history and everything I love combined!”

Happy Friday TV fans! The weekend is almost here and these drastic changes in weather here in New York have brought out all sorts of clothing changes. Heavy coats were swapped out for chic leather jackets, giving each one of us the chance to shine on our own runway. Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl got it right when she said “fashion is art and culture and history and everything I love combined.”

Whether you are channeling a certain era in time or embracing a new trend you spotted in a magazine, fashion is all about expression and creation. You can change up your style with each new outfit, depending on your mood or destination, which makes it so truly wonderful. For today, I am going to be looking at female TV characters with some serious style. Whether they are trying to rule the world…or their high school or looking for an escape from the mundane world of suburbia, these ladies are beyond well-dressed. They’ve become my inspiration when plotting my own next ensemble.

My top 5 most fashionable female characters on TV are:

Veronica Lodge from Riverdale.

I’ve been quite impressed with the fashion on Riverdale. Every character really embraces it and is not afraid to try out new trends, but I have to give the top spot from the show to Miss Veronica Lodge. When she arrives from the big city, she brings her expensive wardrobe with her and is not afraid to show it off. Veronica truly has an Audrey Hepburn inspired look, carefully completing each ensemble with simple but classic accessories, such as her pearl necklace. Veronica always looks flawless and ready for anything. It’s no wonder she is able to stand up to her parents and the other adults in this town. She’s dressing the part and means business.

Emily Thorne from Revenge.

You can’t help not rooting for Emily on her quest for revenge against the Grayson family who she believes is responsible for the downfall of her father. Emily takes on her new identity and plans to step into the elite world of the Hamptons, Long Island. You would never doubt for a second that she doesn’t belong, as she makes an entrance with poise and confidence. Emily’s wardrobe is beyond beautiful. She tends to favor reds and floral patterns, typically leaving her long blonde hair down in soft waves, giving her a certain Veronica Lake vibe. Emily even challenges the notorious Victoria Grayson without batting an eyelash. Even her casual wardrobe screams The Hamptons, embracing simple cardigans and nautical sweaters with fitted jeans. No matter where the social event is, Emily Thorne is there to make a statement and her wardrobe absolutely helps her accomplish this.

Gabrielle Solis from Desperate Housewives.

When ex-model, Gabrielle moves to Wisteria Lane with her rich husband, Carlos, she has traded in her runway days for the quiet life of suburbia. However, that doesn’t mean Gabrielle is about to sacrifice her wardrobe in the process. Even though most of the other women on the block dress casual and simple, Gabrielle looks fabulous in brightly colored ensembles. Even when she does her Yoga, she has on brightly colored matching velour sweats. Gabrielle’s dresses are her trademark, however. She absolutely adores anything that is couture. In a hilarious moment on the show, Gabrielle’s entire walk-in closet is destroyed by a horrible leak in the ceiling and her screams of distress are absolutely sympathetic. When Gabrielle begins dating her second husband, Victor, she seems to have more fun going through his ex-wife’s closet, even borrowing a few outfits. Unfortunately for Gabrielle, the ex spots her in the outfit and Gabrielle is forced to strip in the bathroom and hand over the goods. Luckily, Gabrielle can pull off any outfit…or lack of one in this case, so she was in the clear.

Buffy Summers from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

I was a teenager myself when watching Buffy and I have to say that she was my inspiration for my own style. I remember trying to find the perfect prom dress that looked like hers because I adored it that much. Whether Buffy was rocking a pair of cute leather boots with a short dress or skirt or wearing one of her beautiful statement coats, she always looked fierce while defeating the many threats in Sunnydale. While she was great at accessorizing, perhaps her best accessory was her cross-bow which really went with every outfit. Later in the series, Buffy traded out many of her short dresses for cute leather pants and soft sweaters, embracing hoop earrings and cute hairstyles. No matter what outfit she wore, she always looked comfortable and cute, which is sometimes really hard to do! Either way, Buffy still remains an absolute influence on my own fashion and style.

Some honorable mentions before revealing my number one pick are:

Hanna Marin from “Pretty Little Liars”
Cheryl Blossom from “Riverdale”
Serena van der Woodsen from “Gossip Girl”
Olivia Pope from “Scandal”
Victoria Grayson from “Revenge”
Aria Montgomery from “Pretty Little Liars”
Felicity Smoak from “Arrow”
Joan Watson from “Elementary”

Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl.

So if the quote at the beginning didn’t give me away, my number one pick for most fashionable female TV character has to be awarded to Blair Waldorf. The Queen B herself, Blair embodies fashion and style. Her number one accessory is always her headband, which basically represents a crown, but she wears it so well. Blair, like Veronica Lodge, has an Audrey Hepburn vibe going on, but takes it to an entirely new level. Whether she is rocking a preppy outfit with knee-socks or a breathtaking gown, Blair plans every single detail of her outfit. Her endless amounts of coats are to die for and her handbags are elegant and the perfect pop of color. I’m sure fans around the world (including me) would love to go through her closet just to be that close to a work of art that will never go out of style. Blair’s love for fashion is absolutely apparent and even when she is scolding her minions; it’s hard not to root for her because she looks absolutely fabulous in every scene.

I hope you enjoyed the list and please feel free to post your thoughts and comments below on some of your picks for the most fashionable female TV characters. Happy viewing!
