Naked and Afraid

Since the pandemic, finding something to watch on TV has been a struggle. Believe it or not, I’m watching this show. I’m on Season 10. I never have like reality shows, but this one caught my attention. Mostly because I miss “The Walking Dead’. No comparison, but the survival aspect reminds me of the show.

These two people out in the swamp, desert or even a beach is a show to watch. I didn’t want to try it but I have and can’t stop watching it. These people are doing something they are passionate about. All I can say is “they can have it!!”

Homeland

Season 8 – Final Season

This season started out the Carrie getting release as a Russian prisoner. The CIA put her in a psychiatric facility so they could test her and see if she had been compromised. I was interesting to see how Carrie is trying to get herself back together. She spend over seven months captured and I’m sure tortured.

As the episode continues, Saul wants to use Carrie for his bidding overseas. Carrie, in his mind, is the best and she is. He knows she will do what it takes to keep the country safe.

Carrie is struggling throughout a few episodes and as always, she has to do thing her way, which is what makes the show interesting. She goes off on her adventures and everyone is looking for her.

The best episode was the final one. Carrie is trying to get the black box that was as the crash site when the helicopter with down with very important people in them that died. The only way she can get it is to make a deal with the Russians. Carrie is trying to get Saul to give her information on who his Russian spy is and he would not do it. She is even told by Yevgeny that if she kills Saul, she could get the information; because Saul would have left something for her in his passing. Carrie is seriously thinking about doing it. She even drugs Saul to make him tell her but it does not work. She goes to Saul’s sisters house and even tells her that Saul is dead. Saul’s sister believes her, and Carrie gets the envelope left for her by Saul. She is that desperate to get Saul’s spy information. Carrie gets the name of the contact, which gets Russian spy killed later. After leaving Saul’s sister’s house, she goes off the Yevgeny.

Saul is rescued by his colleagues and he is very disappointed in Carrie. It fast forwards to Saul moving out of his house and is sister helping. He is contacted by a book store owner that he has a package. Saul being very suspicious goes to get the package. It’s a book. It’s a book written by Carrie. Saul scans the book and looks for a secret code and is delighted to see that Carrie has a message for him.

They show Carrie living in Russia. She is getting dressed for a concert with Yevgeny at her side; they have been living together now for two years. She is now a spy with Saul as her contact. In the end, Carrie is keeping her country safe.

The show is worth watching.

Criminal Minds

Season 6, Episode 21

I’m just watching random episodes now of show and this is one I found interesting.

The BAU group travels to San Diego to investigate a serial case of missing college girls. It starts off with a young lady walking to her apartment at night. Of course, it’s dark and a lot of places to hide. I was so relieved when she made it in her apartment and locked the door. She’s safe. She gets ready to take a shower and everything seems save. Then here comes some man climbing through one of her windows; now you would think it was locked too. He gets in and turns on some music in the living room, which of course she goes to investigate. The man is standing outside her bedroom door, grabs her. She fights back; runs into her bathroom. And he proceeds to stab her as she falls in the tub. Talk about mad; I was not happy. She was safe in her own apartment. Who knew he would climb through the window. Should she have checked the house out first; of course. She did notice the window and went to close it, but it was too late. Her roommate was out of town. How did the man know that. Comes to find out, he had been stalking her.

When the BAU group gets to San Diego, they investigate and found out that the man had somehow unlocked the window and got in. Comes to find out; there were other missing girls with similar features as hers.

Then the man goes on to talk other young girls. The next girl had been texting this same guy. He follows her to where she was babysitting for a young couple; and he was watching her through the patio door. Girls, close your blinds. Why are you sitting with the blinds open!! She hears the baby crying through the monitor, goes up stairs to check on the baby. Guess who is behind her, the man. He stabs her in front of the crying baby. Who does that, a crazy man. The couple finds the girl on the floor and calls the police. And guess what else? He feeds the crying baby after he kills the girl. They found a baby bottle on the dresser with blood prints. Crazy man!

At this point the man is out of control. The third girl he stalks, she is babysitting and is on the phone with her boyfriend. She hears a noise, tells her boyfriend not to hang on while she looks around. The alarm is set but the door is opened and the alarm goes off. She is scared, of course. It was the couple of the baby coming him early. She laughs and is relieved it is them. She says her goodbyes to them; the father walks her to the door; and soon as they open it guess who is at the door. The man. He comes in and stabs the girl and the father. What is going on? Did the father not fight back??

The BAU finally figures out who the man is. He is a young man with mental problems. He is choosing young girls that look like this step mother, who is angry with because he accuses her of his father’s death. His father dies of natural causes. Anyway, he’s mad at her. He goes to her house, confronts her and soon after the BAU shows up and shots him.

I mean, this is a lot to think about as young girls. Don’t be so quick to assume your surrounding are safe. Take that extra minute to look around. Try not to walk alone at night if necessary; and look around your apartment when you get home before you take your shoes and coat off. Just some suggestions. If you have time, watch the episode. It will give you chills.

Hello Everyone!!

It’s been a while since I have written anything about the tv shows I like. A lot of my shows have not returned and I haven’t had anything to write about.

With the new “Stay at Home” order in place, I will have lots of time to watch tv shows I normally will not watch; and I will be blogging about those.

Everyone stay safe and stay tune for blogs to come!!

Power

I watched the return to this episode after the holiday break and I must say, it was very disappointing. What just happened? You mean to tell me that Dre got killed for being stupid.

I was expecting the episode to start where it left off with Ghost getting shot, but they spend a entire episode on Dre; very disappointing. I really hope next week will be better.

Sorry dedicated fans, but they need to do better.

Give me your thoughts . . .
