suits224smallLast week on Suits, the event that we’ve been building to over the last four and a half seasons finally kicked off: Mike’s trial for impersonating a lawyer. Harvey and Jessica had convinced Mike to do a practice mock trial in front of the firm, and the proceedings led to some intense moments between Harvey and Mike. However, the mock trial was interrupted by Anita Gibbs, who showed up to announce that she had gotten the trail date moved up. Meanwhile, Harvey’s plan to ship Sheila out of the country so she couldn’t testify backfired, and Gibbs threatened to go after him for witness tampering if Sheila didn’t return from Argentina. At the trial, Gibbs put Donna on the stand, and she was forced to plead the fifth so as to not incriminate herself, which didn’t look good for Mike. Harvey was able to score some points by convincing Mike’s former client Jimmy to testify that Mike went to Harvard with him (which was a total lie). Gibbs tried to convince the jury that Jimmy was perjuring himself, but did she do enough?

Things aren’t looking great for Mike – he needs to be able to testify but not end up on the stand himself. He wants to switch and represent himself, as this will allow him to not only achieve that but also help the jury see him as a lawyer. However, will he and Harvey be able to convince the judge to allow them to make this switch? Even so, do they have a chance at winning this case? Will Louis crumble under Gibbs’s pressure and make a deal with her in exchange for immunity? It’s amazing that a show can still be this tense and enjoyable five seasons in. I never thought we’d actually get to this case, but I’m so glad we have, because this has been really exciting to watch!

On tonight’s episode, “Tick Tock,” Louis considers Anita Gibbs’s offer to turn on his compatriots; Rachel advises Mike on how to win hearts and minds in the courtroom; Donna begs Harvey to not do anything rash, while Jessica thinks he should; and Harvey and Mike contemplate a new strategy.

Catch more of the trial of the year tonight on USA Network at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Survivor, Criminal Minds, The Middle, The Goldbergs, Modern Family, black-ish, Arrow, Supernatural, Young & Hungry, Baby Daddy, Man Seeking Woman, Face Off, Younger, and Teachers.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/27/16

suits127smallTonight, Suits returns for its fifth season winter premiere on USA Network. Last summer, things came to a head as there was a big power struggle at the firm. Jack had called for the partners to make a vote of no confidence to remove Jessica. Louis tried to figure out what Daniel was holding over Jack in order to coerce this move, but when Daniel got wind of this, he threatened that if Louis didn’t also vote along with Jack, he would have a client make a hostile takeover of Louis’s sister’s business and dismantle it. At the vote, Harvey showed that he had also been busy trying to find a solution, announcing that one of Daniel’s biggest clients had just dropped him. He then pleaded Jessica’s case, and she won by unanimous vote. Afterwards, Jessica tried to talk Harvey out of leaving the firm, but he insisted on sacrificing himself for everything that had happened. Meanwhile, Mike handed in his own resignation to Harvey. But as the two hugged it out, the police showed up at the office to arrest Mike for conspiracy to commit fraud.

Who turned Mike in? Will he somehow be able to get out of this? Will any of the others be indicted as well for their part in covering up Mike’s actions? And what will this mean for Pearson Specter Litt?

On tonight’s episode, “Blowback,” Jessica and Harvey must figure out how to defend Mike, despite knowing that he’s guilty of the crime he’s accused of committing. Leslie Hope guest stars.

See if Jessica and Harvey can get Mike off the hook tonight on USA Network at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Criminal Minds, Arrow, Supernatural, Man Seeking Woman, Face Off, Younger, and Teachers.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 6/24/15

Have you ever been at a loss as to what to watch? Too many shows to pick from? We’re here to give you our opinions on what we feel is worth watching. Check it out and then let us know in the comments below what you’re choosing for tonight!

Megan’s Choice #1

bullseyesmallI’ll be honest… The only reason I originally tuned in to Bullseye was to watch the always sexy Kellan Lutz, but my fiance and I absolutely love watching the insane challenges. This show is like Fear Factor without all the eating challenges, which I hated watching, so it’s a win-win. Last week, I loved watching them bounce down the hill in those giant balls. It was hilarious and looked fun — I would be a little freaked out about the water in there though, because knowing me, I’d probably choke on it. Overall, this show keeps me wanting more, and it’s easy television to relax to, so if you haven’t given it a chance, you most definitely should.

On tonight’s episode, “Defying Gravity,” the hosts welcome eight new contestants as they participate in the Drift Car, Defying Gravity, and Puppetmaster challenges, all of which involve using their bodies like human darts. At the end of the night, the contestant that comes out on top will go home with $50,000.

To see how this week’s contestants face the intense challenges, tune in to FOX at 9/8c.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 3/4/15

Jenny’s Choice

csicybersmallEveryone knows I love procedurals, so when I learned last season that there would be a new CSI spinoff, entitled CSI: Cyber, I was more than thrilled. I was even more excited when I learned that it would be headed up by Patricia Arquette, whom I adored on Medium. The show is inspired by real-life Cyber Psychologist Mary Aiken, and Patricia Arquette stars as Special Agent Avery Ryan, who heads the Cyber Crime Division of the FBI. The CCD solves cases that “start in the mind, live online and play out in the real world.” The rest of the cast is great too: James Van Der Beek, Peter MacNicol, Charley Koontz, Shad Moss, & Hayley Kiyoko. I especially love Peter MacNicol and James Van Der Beek, but the whole cast is fun to watch.

I’ve seen several episode, including tonight’s pilot, and I really enjoyed them. The cases are interesting, different, and fun. You get some of the CSI feel but combine that with Criminal Minds (especially the Garcia scenes, unsurprisingly).

On tonight’s episode, “Kidnapping 2.0,” Special Agent Avery Ryan and her team of FBI cyber analysts investigate a case of hacked baby monitors.

Check out the premiere tonight on CBS at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Melissa & Joey, The Goldbergs, Criminal Minds, Modern Family, Mystery Diners, black-ish, Wahlburgers, & Donnie Loves Jenny.
