How to Get Away With Murder 3x02 Top Five



I feel like this is about to be my favorite season of How to Get Away With Murder.  Why? Because it's only the second episode of the season and i've had multiple OMG moments.  Peter Nowalk and the team are already writing the hell out of this season!


5. Asher

How can you not love him?! 

Do I really need a reason? The comments. The dancing. Its nice to see him back to basics after his crazy/strange storyline last season.  And this Asher and Michaela friends with benefits thing brings much needed entertainment to an otherwise edge of your seat show.

4. Keating Five aka Mystery Inc



I LOVE that they're trying to figure out who is after Annalise but here's the issue.  They always find themselves in trouble and I think that the scooby gang going after this person is what leads to a burning house and dead body.

3. Laurel and Wes

I just want them to kiss again.....

I used to get brother and sister vibes from them but after that kiss last season....I think we all know where this is heading and I'm actually excited for it. I'm a sucker for a good romance.

2. Connor said what...??



He told someone that he killed a guy.  AFTER TWO SEASONS OF BEING QUIET YOU DECIDE OH YEAH TODAYS THE DAY? I don't care what the reason was. It was stupid. Also....yeah I'm not upset about the Connor/Oliver split.  We know its temporary and even if it isn't they make each other boring.  I feel like this relationship needs drama to thrive.

1.) Bonnie!

Don't look shocked Bon Bon it surprised me too. 

Never ever thought that she would be number one on my list but I very much enjoyed Bon Bon this episode. She showed that she can still get stuff done even when there's not much for her to do story wise. Bonnie, Annalise, and Laurel teaming up to track down Frank? Yeah that's going to be fantastic.  Making Laurel call her dad? I really can't wait for next week.

Who ISN'T under the sheet: Annalise, Oliver (which makes me lean even more toward one of the Keating Five)

Once Upon A Time Rants & Raves: The Savior 6x01



Nothing feels better than sitting down for the first show of a new season. Once Upon A Time is back and I actually have a really good feeling about this season! We're back in Storybrooke and there are a lot of new players in town so lets jump right in! SPOILERS BELOW. 


Rave: Mr. Hyde



I love everything about him. He honestly just doesn't care and we haven't seen that in a while.  I may be a little biased since I was a fan of Sam Witwer's run on Smallville but the way he plays Hyde is going to bring a completely new dynamic to Once. 


Rave: Snow and Regina

Quickly becoming my favorite duo

The conversation that they had a the end of the episode had me hanging on every word.  It's honestly a conversation I've been waiting for them to have since Neverland.  We actually get verbal acknowledgement of their mother/daughter relationship in a positive way.  Snow credits her hope and faith to Regina and in turn the former queen of evil recognizes her new found faith.  Bonus Rave: Is it just me or does anyone else notice that Lana Parrilla is playing Regina a little differently? I'm all for it! Without the evil part of her its almost as if this Regina is a completely new character. 


Rant: Our Trusting Heroes


Why, after everything that they have been through, are our heroes so trusting?!  Snow and Charming in the woods speaking to the people from the Land of Untold Stories.  How do you know they're actually good people?  Emma speaking to Mr. Hyde.  We know he's evil! Why are you taking him at his word? STOP DOING THIS. 

Rant/Rave: Zelena in Regina's house. 

I'll hold my grudge until the very end


This honestly could've brought us so many quotable moments.  They would've been great. However, as a proud Evil Regal I absolutely refuse to forgive and forget. Rave: Parrilla and Rebecca Mader play against each other so well. I love watching scenes with them. Rant: Zelena impersonated Robin's dead wife and got pregnant just to rub it in Regina's face.  I'm still bitter about it. 

Rave: Saviors! 

Love seeing season once characters! They still exist! 


Not only is there more than one savior but apparently they're all doomed.  Why is this a rave? Cause I love when Once gives us a problem to solve. Going to the underworld to save Hook is a mission. Operation Cobra? That's problem solving! And it looks like our main problem is not only how do we save Emma but how do we prevent Emma from losing her mind. Cue Archie!!! 

Rave of the Night: BELLE IS DONE WITH RUMPLE!!!! Hopefully it sticks this time....

Rant of the Night: Literally 2.5 seconds worth of Evil Queen. 

 
First thought: Apple Martini.....its probably poison.

Geek Moment of the Week: 



Anytime Belle wears the yellow dress its a moment.  Anytime Belle is in the yellow dress and they're playing that beautiful instrumental version of Beauty and the Beast its a moment.

How to Get Away With Murder Season 3 Premiere



My soul wasn't ready for How to Get Away With Murder. My body wasn't ready to be slayed Thursday after Thursday but its that time of year again. New school year. New class. New murder. The season premiere clearly stated that things were going to be a little different this season and I'm all for it.  A show with a format like HTGAWM can easily become dated and boring but the few things that were changed seemed to give the show new life. As usual with a Shondaland show I'm going to list my top five moments from this episode.  SPOILERS BELOW.


5.) New Hair for Everyone!

  
Laurel: Season 1 vs Season 3

I love that the show is actually changing things up with how the characters look! It's something small but new hair styles on some of the characters shows that time has passed and things are changing with the characters themselves. Something as tiny as a style change can add to character growth.

Annalise: Season 1 vs Season 3



4.) Annalise is being nice....?



She's being genuinely nice to the Keating 5 and Bon Bon in the flashbacks! It's nice to see a different side to her. Perhaps it was the Annalise we would have gotten had they not killed her husband but I'm digging the attitude change. It makes her much more likable person and it's nice to see how easily Viola Davis can switch between the different versions of the character.

3.) Nate.

Not from season 3 but you get the point


They'll find any reason to get his shirt off.  I'm here for it.

2.) Frank...

RIP Beard. You've been good to us. 


I don't get what Frank is up to. I don't think he killed Wes' Dad.  I think that would be too easy.  I think he'll do anything for Annalise even if she doesn't realize that it's what needs to be done.  I think he loves Laurel.  I'm excited to see where his storyline goes this season.  I'm extremely upset that he shaved his beard....it was my favorite character.

1.) The Last Two Minutes



There's a body.  Annalise is screaming NOOOOO in the middle of the street.  The house is on fire.  My guess is that this season someone is after them and it's not going to be the Keating Five trying to cover up a murder (finally).  It looks like every week we will find out one person who is alive.  I've already seen many guesses that the body is Frank or BonBon but again I think its too easy.  I think it's one of the Keating Five. It's Shondaland.  No one is safe.  We'll have to watch week to week to find out who is safe.
