Season Six Episode 15 Miguel

This episode is about Miguel and his life over the years. You get to see how Miguel came to America; and what his went through from childhood to adulthood.

Miguel’s father decides to move the family to America. He tells them things will be better for them here. At first the family seems nervous but eventually everyone gets use to their new home in a new country. They show Miguel as a child playing baseball and learning how to speak English.

Then it is fast forwarded to Miguel waking up every morning to be the first person Rebecca sees when she wakes up. He insist on taking care of her in every way. That means helping her out of bed, preparing her meals and making sure her medicine is sorted. The kids have hired a nurse to do these things, but Miguel is very adamant about doing it himself.

Eventually, Miguel is no longer physically about to take care of Rebecca alone; and the kids insist on him letting the nurse do her job. He is still the first person Rebecca sees; but with help he is not doing everything alone. His health is deteriorating and is in his final days.

You will enjoy this episode. I honestly always saw Miguel as someone who tried to take Jack’s place. Now you get to know who Miguel really is and to understand the decisions he has made throughout his life.

Season One, Episode One

I came across this show and started watching it. What a thriller with all kinds of twist and turns. The show is based off fairy tales in a not so expected way. It covers Hansel and Greta, Three Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood. The show is based in NYC centered around completely different life events that are tied together by circumstances.

Two brothers, Tucker and Mitch are planning to rob a jewelry store in the middle of a police protest. Tucker is not thrilled about doing it; but can use the money since his job as a bartender at a club is not giving him the cash he needs to pay off some debt. Mitch has a partner that has set up the entire job inside the jewelry store. Mitch needs the money too along with their partner.

Gabe and his sibling Hanna are reunited after an accident. Gabe and his roommate Billy are invited to a private party after their shift is over at the club they both dance at. Things get out of hand and the host ends up dead. Billy flees the scene leaving Gabe to pick up the pieces. Gabe calls Hannah for help.

Teen Kayla has moved to NYC with her Dad leaving California behind. Dad, Tim, moves in his mother’s home with Kayla. Kayla starts her new high school and meets friends she starts hanging out with.

They attend a police protest, but Beth changes her mind and takes Jordan to look at rings in a jewelry store. Bank robbers come in, holds the store up. Things go bad for the couple.

Season Six Episode 11

This episode goes into more detail about how young Jack got the scar on his forehead.

The Pearsons are having a big anniversary party for Rebecca and Miguel. The event was held at Kate and Toby’s house. Toby has this big green grill and is proud to be cooking on it. Kate and Toby are having their daily stabs at each other while trying to host this party.

During some of the scenes, Kate is teaching young Jack how to go the park making make him feel more independent. It’s amazing how she is teaching young Jack how to walk with his stick while singing a song; and how young Jack is to listen to the sounds around him while walking freely. They go the the park every Saturday; and young Jack has learned the way with little help. Toby is a mess watching him cross traffic knowing that young Jack is a blind child. Kate on the other hand is teaching young Jack independence. What a great skill to teach young Jack.

There is a ceiling leak during the party and a plumber has to be called. In the middle on the focus of the ceiling getting fixed; young Jack gets out of the house and walks to the park by himself. It was so scary to watch, but he made it. Once young Jack gets to the park, he encounters unfamiliar territory and falls down, bumping his head.

Everyone at the house realize that young Jack is gone and they start looking for him. He’s not in the house. Rebecca notices that his boots are gone and that young Jack has gone to the park. She rushes to the park and found young Jack laying on the ground hurt. Kate and Toby rushes young Jack to the hospital for medical treatment to patched up his forehead. This does not go without blame between Kate and Toby.

The episode also focuses on Kevin coming to the reality that Madison has moved on without him. He founds out the Elijah will be proposing to Madison and somehow he feels left out. Well, Kevin, you are left out. You didn’t want to marry Madison on your wedding day; and now she has moved on. Kevin finally manages to stay calm with Madison being happy without him. Madison still considers Kevin as a friend.

This episode unfolds a lot of history and what the future will look like. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Season Six Episode Nine

Big 3 Trilogy – Randall

This trilogy was the best one ever. You can see the Randall was always a protector, but he really stepped up after their father died. He has always been so serious, but I imagined he thought he had to be stronger than the others.

Randall takes this road trip with his Mother; and he will never forget it. Rebecca even explained why she did not pick him to be her guardian. Rebecca knew that Randall would stop everything to take care of her. Rebecca remembered every special memory of Randall as a child which made Randall feel good.

I always thought Rebecca felt guilty for keeping Randall from William, but this episode shows that she really loves Randall. Rebecca insisted on making new memories with Randall by making stops on the way to Boston.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did. Even though in the past Randall found his birth mother, you know that Rebecca is number one.

Season Six Episode Eight

Big 3 Trilogy – Kevin

This episode is mainly about Kevin. I think Kevin was a little selfish as a kid. He was always whinning about something. Even when he became a young adult; he seems to always have these problems.

I like this Kevin now; not the younger Kevin. He is insecure but is now at least trying to be more considerate of others. Even though he is a movie star, he has not idea what he wants to do with his life.

Him taking those twins on the plane for a trip to the cabin was a brave move. He had a time on the plane with them and everyone was looking at him with the dirty look. His trip back on the plane was a lot better; and he was getting smiles from the passengers.

In my opinion, Kevin is looking for the love he lost. He wants the family life he had when his Dad was alive. Hopefully, in this final season, he will find love again. Who will he end up with?

Season Six Episode Eight

Big 3 Trilogy – Kate

This episode was nothing like I expected. Kate finally goes to San Francisco where Toby works. Toby is very excited and planned their entire weekend. Kate on the other hand does not seem happy to go; and she has this negative energy.

Toby wants his family to move there and he has looked at a house and everything. Kate is not pleased about that.; she gives him a hard time. They go to his boss’s house for a party and she is not happy about that. Kate finds out that Toby does not tell her about a job offer he had back in LA and she gets very upset. That news just sent her over the edge.

In my opinion, I think she is being just a little irritated. She is not able to look at the big picture. He did plan their future life without consulting her, but she has to realize he loves his job and is not leaving it. All I can think of is that she does not want to move; and expecting him to eventually find a job closer to home. I think she is also jealous because Toby has lost all this weight; and she feels left behind. I know from the previews that they end up breaking up; not sure who will ask first. Kate just seems to always want her way and not willing to compromise when it really matters. What do you think?

New show on Netflix.

It’s about Laura who is running from her past. Her daughter, Andy gets caught up in the middle and is determined to find out what her mother is hiding. It’s only one season and it doesn’t look like there will be a season two.

Laura has lived with her past for what seems like a lifetime. Andy turns 30 years old and her world is turned upside down from there. Laura sends Andy away for her protection but that’s not good enough for Andy. Andy goes on this mission to trace steps needed to help her survive and also learn the truth.

At the end, Laura comes out on top; and regains the life she left behind. This is a quick binge watch, but it will keep your attention.

Season Six Episode Seven

This episode is special and it will make you emotional. The family is celebrating Thanksgiving at the cabin and everything goes.

Randall is very emotional because he thinks this is the last Thanksgiving for his mother. He wants his kids to bond with their grandmother. He is taking all these pictures trying to catch all the memories he can. Beth eventually has to take the phone from him at the request of Rebecca.

Kevin is happy to have everyone there because he wants to show everyone his plans for the new cabin. He gets into it with Miguel who is only trying to help. Kevin is playing a guitar the entire time and getting on everyone’s nerves.

Kate is having a time with Toby. They are fighting the entire time and finally have to sit down to address the problem. Everyone is feeling uncomfortable.

Rebecca has plans to talk to all her kids to let them know her plans. She finally sits the kids down for a heart to heart talk. It’s very touching. She is very direct and picks a point of contact for her care as needed. I wasn’t surprised who she picked but you may be.

The show should start getting good now; and I can’t wait to see what will happen.

Season Two

This season starts out slow but ends with a bang!!

Kendall is trying to smooth things over with Logan but is doing drugs again. Kendall is trying to also recovering from all the drama he caused in season one. Kendall is willing to do anything his father ask him to do because of the tragedy he caused.

Shiv and Tom leave their honeymoon early to help deal with the controversy with one of the star anchors on their news outlet. Shiv is at the moment still working in politics, but is starting to focus on joining her siblings at the company.

Roman is still very immature. He is my least favorite character on the show. I don’t even think he needs to be working at Waystar Royco. Not much to say about him. Logan seems to listens to all the comments Roman’s make. Roman just seems so insecure with a chip on his shoulder.

Logan trying to buy a new television station. He and the family go for the weekend to the home of the seller’s where they have to be on their best behavior. All is going well they think the weekend went well. Later in the episode, the seller pulls out of the deal.

Logan is also trying to keep his company active; and will have to sacrifice one of his children to go to jail for him. He chooses Kendall. Kendall agrees to be the sacrifice but later turns on his father.

This show is a spend off from The Good Wife. Diane is getting ready for retirement but it is put on hold. All her money has been lost and she can no longer stop working. She can no longer stay at the law firm she has helped build so she gets an offer to go to a different firm; and takes the deal.

The new law firm she goes to is predominantly black owned. Diane has no problem with that because she has worked welled with one of the partners in the past. The female partner and the new firm is not happy to have her around.

Diane goes through a lot of changes this year and is ready to take on her new start at this law firm. She truly believes in the law and about to help everyone that comes through the office doors.

There are five season to the show so sit back and enjoy.
