The CW’s season two episode four of Legacies found Hope teaming up with Josie to help Lizzie after she was possessed by an evil Japanese spirit, thanks to a resurrected samurai warrior. Lizzie was front and center for two more important storylines from episode four: MG convinced her that her new love interest (the sexy vampire, Sebastian) doesn’t exist, and by the end of the episode she woke from a dream and declared she remembers Hope Andrea Mikaelson!
Up next, season two episode five airing on November 14, 2019. Episode five, “Screw Endgame,” was directed by Barbara Brown from a script by Brett Matthews and Thomas Brandon.
Legacies stars Danielle Rose Russell as Hope Mikaelson, Jenny Boyd as Lizzie Saltzman, Kaylee Bryant as Josie Saltzman, and Quincy Fouse as MG. Aria Shahghasemi is Landon Kirby, Peyton Alex Smith is Rafael Waithe, and Matt Davis is Alaric Saltzman.
The “Screw Endgame” Plot – ‘80s DECADE DANCE — As the Salvatore School prepares for its upcoming ‘80s-themed decade dance, Hope (Russell) and Lizzie (Boyd) find themselves trapped inside a never-ending labyrinth with a monster on their trail. Meanwhile, Josie (Bryant) and Landon (Shahghasemi) decide whether or not to take their relationship to the next level.
Elsewhere, MG (Fouse) turns to Kaleb (guest star Chris Lee) for advice on what to do about Sebastian (guest star Thomas Doherty), while Rafael (Smith) struggles to adjust to his life back at the school.
The Season 2 Plot:
Last season, viewers were thrilled to tap into a whole new passion for The Vampire Diaries / The Originals universe, when the third installment in the franchise launched with Legacies. Set in the Salvatore Boarding School for the Young and Gifted, Legacies told the story of the next generation of supernatural beings as they learn what it means to be special in a world that may never understand. Typically a school for vampires like MG (Fouse), werewolves like Rafael (Smith) and witches like twins Lizzie (Boyd) and Josie Saltzman (Bryant), the kids and their beloved headmaster Dr. Alaric Saltzman (Davis) were stunned to come face to face with a series of monster and creatures they had only ever heard of in myth and lore. A dragon. A gargoyle. The Headless Horseman.
The evil behind the real-life resurrection of these formerly fictional beings proved to have a horrifying connection to the school’s newest student, Landon Kirby (Shahghasemi). This led his first and only love, Hope Mikaelson (Russell), the school’s shining star, to sacrifice her place at the school — and in the world — to protect Landon from a terrible fate.
Season two will show us a world without Hope Mikaelson and all the chaos that goes along with it. All the while, Hope will be trying to find her way back to the school she has learned to call home and the friends she has learned to love like family. It will be filled with new monsters and more romantic and emotional surprises than ever.

Details on Katy Keene:
Katy Keene follows the lives and loves of four iconic Archie Comics characters — fashion legend-to-be Katy Keene (Lucy Hale), singer/songwriter Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray), performer Jorge Lopez/Ginger (Jonny Beauchamp), and “It Girl” Pepper Smith (Julia Chan) — as they chase their twenty-something dreams in New York City…together.
Katy designs clothes for anyone she can, including her friend and roommate Josie, whose singing talent catches the attention of Alexander Cabot (Lucien Laviscount), a CEO who hopes to reboot the record label division of his father’s corporate empire. But Alexander’s dream of signing Josie to a recording contract meets resistance from Cabot Media’s powerful senior vice president Alexandra (Camille Hyde), who also happens to be his twin sister. Josie and Katy’s roommate Jorge works at his family’s bodega and has his eye on Broadway, but after a series of rejections, he hopes to take his drag performance career as Ginger to the next level.
The mysterious Pepper Smith plans to open her own version of Andy Warhol’s Factory. She has the connections, but no one seems to know where she got her money — or if she really has any at all. Katy struggles to manage the pressures of her day job at Lacy’s Department Store and her very demanding boss, Gloria (Katherine LaNasa), who is a legendary personal shopper. But Katy has the support of her longtime boyfriend, KO Kelly (Zane Holtz), who has his own dream of becoming a professional boxer.
As these aspiring artists take on the runway, the recording studio, Broadway, and the NYC social scene, they will find more than just a career in the big city — they’ll find long-lasting friendship.

NEW DRAMA SERIES
COUNCIL OF DADS – Family takes on a different meaning in this transformative and inspirational new drama when Scott Perry, a loving father of five, has his entire life’s plan thrown into upheaval by an unexpected health scare. He calls on a few of his most trusted friends to step in as back-up dads to help guide and support his growing family – just in case he ever can’t be there to do it himself.
There’s Anthony, Scott’s oldest and most loyal friend; Larry, his tough-love AA sponsee; and Oliver, his dedicated doctor and wife’s dearest friend. Together, they discover that there’s more to being a father than anyone could do alone – and more to being a family than they ever thought possible.
The cast includes Sarah Wayne Callies, Clive Standen, Tom Everett Scott, J. August Richards, Blue Chapman, Emjay Anthony, Michele Weaver, Thalia Tran, Steven Silver and Michael O’Neill.
LINCOLN RHYME: HUNT FOR THE BONE COLLECTOR – Inspired by the best-selling book, the enigmatic and notorious serial killer known only as “The Bone Collector” once terrified New York City … until he seemingly disappeared. Now, three years later, when an elaborate murder points to his return, it brings former NYPD detective and forensic genius Lincoln Rhyme out of retirement and back into the fold. Rhyme has a personal connection to the case – a trap set by the killer left him paralyzed – but this time he’s teaming up with Amelia Sachs, an intuitive young officer who’s got her own gift for profiling.
This unlikely detective duo will play a deadly new game of cat and mouse with the brilliant psychopath who brought them together. But how do you catch a killer who always seems to be one step ahead?
The cast includes Russell Hornsby, Arielle Kebbel, Brían F. O’Byrne, Tate Ellington, Courtney Grosbeck, Ramses Jimenez, Brooke Lyons, Roslyn Ruff and Michael Imperioli.
ZOEY’S EXTRAORDINARY PLAYLIST – If there’s a song in your heart, it will get in her head. Jane Levy stars in this high-concept drama as Zoey Clarke, a whip-smart computer coder forging her way in San Francisco. After an unusual event, Zoey, who always preferred podcasts over pop songs, suddenly starts to hear the innermost wants, thoughts and desires of the people around her – her family, co-workers and complete strangers – through popular songs.
At first, she questions her own sanity, but after getting some guidance from her musically adept neighbor, Mo, and making a breakthrough with her ailing father, Zoey soon realizes this unwanted curse may just be an incredibly wonderful gift as she connects with the world like never before.
The series stars Jane Levy, Skylar Astin, Alex Newell, John Clarence Stewart, with Peter Gallagher and Mary Steenburgen. Lauren Graham is special guest star.

Series star Chi McBride co-wrote CBS’s Hawaii Five-0 season 10 episode eight which features special guest star Metta World Peace. Matt Wheeler co-wrote and Carlos Bernard directed the episode titled “Ne’e aku, ne’e mai ke one o Punahoa” which is Hawaiian for “That way and this way shifts the sands of Punahoa.”
Episode eight will air on Friday, November 15, 2019 at 8pm ET/PT.
Guest stars include Nia Holloway, Marita De Lara, Jesse Johnson, Walker Haynes, Garret T. Sato, Can Bolay, and Poasa Aga. Ashley Kirk, Kainoa Li, Tyler Tanabe, Leia Bullock, Phil Chang, and Dean Hamer also guest star in episode eight.
Alex O’Loughlin leads the cast as Steve McGarrett. Scott Caan plays Danny “Danno” Williams, Ian Anthony Dale is Adam Noshimuri, Meaghan Rath is Tani Rey, and Jorge Garcia plays Jerry Ortega. Beulah Koale stars as Junior Reigns, Chi McBride is Captain Lou Grover, Katrina Law is Quinn Liu, Taylor Wily plays Kamekona, Dennis Chun is Sgt. Duke Lukela, and Kimee Balmilero plays Dr. Noelani Cunha.
The “Ne’e aku, ne’e mai ke one o Punahoa” Plot – Five-0 teams up with a DEA agent to search for a killer whose plane crashed in the jungle with $10 million worth of heroin on board. Also, Grover is thrilled when his niece Siobhan (guest star Nia Holloway) comes to try out for the University of Hawaii basketball team.
The Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:
“Hawaii Five-O is a contemporary take on the classic series about an elite federalized task force whose mission is to wipe out the crime that washes up on the islands’ sun-drenched beaches. Detective Steve McGarrett, a decorated Naval officer turned cop, returned to Oahu after Hawaii’s former governor persuaded him to head up the new team: his rules, no red tape and full blanket authority to hunt down the biggest “game” in town.
Joining McGarrett are Detective Danny “Danno” Williams, a relocated ex-New Jersey cop who is committed to keeping the islands safe for his children; Captain Lou Grover, who formerly headed Hawaii’s SWAT unit; Jerry Ortega, the islands’ local conspiracy theorist; Tani Rey, a bold, recent police academy graduate; Junior Reigns, a former SEAL who comes to McGarrett looking for a job, Adam Noshimuri, a friend with old ties to a deadly crime family and Quinn Liu, a former Staff Sergeant with Army CID who was recently demoted for insubordination.
Helping them is Kamekona, a local entrepreneur who has his pulse on the Island; Sgt. Duke Lukela, a trusted member of the HPD; and medical examiner Dr. Noelani Cunha. The state’s brash Five-0 unit, who may spar and jest among themselves, remain determined to eliminate the seedy elements from the 50th state.”
CBS’s Bull season four is taking a two week break and will return on Monday, November 18, 2019 at 10pm ET/PT with episode eight. Episode eight, “Safe and Sound,” was directed by Glenn Gordon Caron from a script by Pamela Wechsler.
Episode eight features guest stars Mercedes Ruehl, Sebastian Arcelus, Jack Gore, Alexie Gilmore, Ellen Adair, Robyn Rosario, Katt Masterson, CJ Adams, and Lawrence Winslow. Isabelle Phillips, Bob Juergens, Sheillagh Weymouth, K.C. Arora, and Robin S. Walker also guest star.
The cast is led by Michael Weatherly as Dr. Jason Bull, Freddy Rodriguez as Benny Colón, Geneva Carr as Marissa Morgan, Jamie Lee Kirchner as Danny James, Christopher Jackson as Chunk Palmer, and MacKenzie Meehan as Taylor Rentzel.
“Safe and Sound” Plot – Bull mounts the defense of an old college friend, Eric Crawford (Sebatian Arcelus), who is charged with negligent homicide after Eric’s youngest child kills his eldest with Eric’s handgun.
Bull Series Details, Courtesy of CBS:
Bull stars Michael Weatherly as Dr. Jason Bull in a drama inspired by the early career of Dr. Phil McGraw, the founder of one of the most prolific trial-consulting firms of all time. Brilliant, brash and charming, Dr. Bull is the ultimate puppet master as he combines psychology, human intuition and high-tech data to learn what makes jurors, attorneys, witnesses and the accused tick. His personal life proves harder to manage as he tries to live a healthier lifestyle following a heart attack and learns he is expecting a child with his ex-wife.
Bull employs an enviable team of experts at Trial Analysis Corporation to shape successful narratives down to the very last detail. This includes his quick-witted former brother-in-law, Benny Colón, a lawyer who acts as defense attorney in the company’s mock trials; Marissa Morgan, a neurolinguistics expert from the Department of Homeland Security who monitors shifting jury reactions in real-time for Bull; former NYPD detective Danny James, the firm’s tough but relatable investigator; Taylor Rentzel, a working mother and former colleague of Marissa’s who is an expert in coding and computer hacking; and Chunk Palmer, a former all-American lineman and stylist-turned-law student who helps clients prepare their look and testimony for trial.
In high-stakes trials, Bull’s combination of remarkable insight into human nature, three Ph.D.’s and a top-notch staff creates winning strategies that tip the scales of justice in his clients’ favor.
By this point, fans should be well aware that The CW’s Supernatural makes sure every action has a consequence even if it takes years for it to be apparent. Season 15 episode four, “Atomic Monsters,” should be the first of many episodes that build up to Chuck (Rob Benedict) and Sam’s (Jared Padalecki) supposed connection following their shared wound inflicted by the Equalizer’s bullet.
We start off with a rugged and refugee-like Dean (Jensen Ackles) heading into the Men of Letters bunker, which is in danger mode. Who does Dean find nearing his death? That would be his old pal Benny, the vampire he’d befriended in Purgatory. We don’t get to reacquaint ourselves with Benny, though, as his death comes about to reveal an evil Sam.
As it turns out, Sam’s given back into his thirst for demon blood, and the image of a devious Sam that Castiel saw in the season premiere is shown in full as Sam’s eyes turn jet black like a demon’s and who proceeds to snap Dean’s neck. Cut to the real Sam waking up, and it’s revealed that all of this was (hopefully) just a dream.
We then get some usual Winchester banter where Dean fools Sam into believing he’s eating veggie bacon when it’s actually just real bacon because, as Dean puts it, veggie bacon’s for hipsters. Dean then sees Sam’s still reeling from Rowena’s death and convinces him to accompany him for a case in Iowa.
There, Sam isn’t in his usual pro-fake FBI mode, as he gets mouthy toward a couple who believe their son not getting into Yale is worse than the girl who just got killed, telling them that the end of the world is actually the end of the world – not their son getting rejected from college.
Dean figures out they’re dealing with a vampire, but it appears as if this vamp isn’t following the usual rules. But Sam’s still too distracted by the people in the town’s lopsided view of what’s important. Regardless, he and Dean head over to their suspect, a cheerleader who seems to be the one to benefit from the victim’s death.
However, once they do confront her (and Sam already has intentions of killing her), we find out this girl wears braces, meaning there’s not exactly a chance her fangs would be hidden behind those teeth. Eventually, though, the boys track down who they believe is the killer: that potential Yale kid’s father.
Their theory pans out, too, as they arrive at his house to confront the man and he doesn’t deny it. Sam finds a girl bound in the family’s basement, only to have the mother point a gun at him. As it turns out, the dad was just vouching for his son who’s the real vampire here.
In a change from the norm, there’s no big fight scene to end proceedings, as the son admits to his crimes and convinces his parents to step down. Sam and Dean then head out with the boy, taking him deep into the woods where Dean decapitates him and ends the murders.
Later on, while Dean thinks what they went through was a win, Sam doesn’t see it that way. According to him, he still thinks as far back as Jessica’s death and the numerous others they’ve lost. Sam still doesn’t feel free from Chuck, and when he points out that they might have done the same as Yale kid’s parents had to protect Jack when he was alive, the rather uneasy silence between the brothers makes it clear they both have reservations over whether they’re really that selfless.
Over on the other story, we see the return of Becky (Emily Perkins) – you know, that crazy girl who was obsessed with Sam and once even dated Chuck. Well, Chuck seems to remember her, as he turns up at her house begging for Becky to hear him out. It’s shown that Becky’s gotten married over the last decade and is excited to have her husband and kids out of the house for a day so she can catch up on her work.
Becky’s shown to have made a business out of selling “Supernatural” merchandise and written her own fan fiction. She’s not impressed with Chuck’s attempts to feel sorry for him, though, as she wants to forget the times when she was completely cuckoo. When she does start feeling bad for him, Becky convinces Chuck to start writing again to fill that emptiness in him, only she doesn’t realize he wants to start writing right now.
Unfortunately, this new drive only fuels Chuck’s darkest tendencies as he reveals his first draft for the finale of “Supernatural,” something so horrifying that Becky wretches in fear after reading it. It’s here that Chuck confesses he’s actually God, and to prove it he disintegrates Becky’s family before doing the same to her. So, it appears that Chuck intends to have horrible things happen to our heroes, with some gruesome things to follow.
Overall, I enjoyed how Supernatural changed things up by adding some meaning to a general filler-style episode, with my biggest satisfaction coming from the tease of the return of Sam’s demon blood powers, which I think was written out with some mileage still in it.
I also liked that they finally showed the Winchesters did care somewhat for Jack since the show’s made it appear for quite a while as if they simply forgot what he meant to them. God’s plan was always going to be scary, and this was the right way to justify why he’d want to make the boys suffer.

The Season 1 Plot, Courtesy of CBS:
“Evil is a psychological mystery that examines the origins of evil along the dividing line between science and religion. The series focuses on a skeptical female psychologist who joins a priest-in-training and a carpenter as they investigate the Church’s backlog of unexplained mysteries, including supposed miracles, demonic possessions and hauntings. Their job is to assess if there’s a logical explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work.”

Series Details, Courtesy of CBS:
SEAL Team is a military drama that follows the professional and personal lives of the most elite unit of Navy SEALs as they train, plan and execute the most dangerous, high-stakes missions our country can ask of them.

His team includes his trusted confidant, Ray Perry, the longest-tenured operator with whom Jason shares an ingrained shorthand; Sonny Quinn, an exceptional, loyal soldier with a checkered past who still combats self-destructive tendencies; and Clay Spenser, a young, multilingual, second-generation SEAL with insatiable drive and dedication.
Vital to the team’s success are troop commander Lt. Cdr. Eric Blackburn, who serves as a leader and confidant both on and off the battlefield; CIA analyst Mandy Ellis, who has sacrificed everything in her drive to root out evil and take down terrorists; and Lisa Davis, a no-nonsense, take-charge logistics officer and unofficial den mother responsible for outfitting the team with the necessary gear for each mission.
Deployed on clandestine missions worldwide at a moment’s notice, and knowing the toll it takes on them and their families, this tight-knit SEAL team displays unwavering patriotism and fearless dedication even in the face of overwhelming odds.
