I’ve got to say, that cliffhanger at the end of episode six was pretty good. I mean, it’s nowhere near as scream-inducing as the cliffhanger at the end of Mark of Athena, and the cliffhanger ending of episode six of Dead Boy Detectives still holds the title of Most Epic Cliffhanger of All Time (fun fact, it also involves a giant spider). I’d say it’s about par with the cliffhanger ending of Two Towers—the hero is alive, but taken by the enemy. Hm, maybe I should say it’s a really good ending instead of saying it’s a good cliffhanger, because it doesn’t really feel like a cliffhanger, it feels like a good episode break.

Book review, I kinda expected the character to be based off H Quinn from Suicide Squad with her being psycho and the clown paint it does kinda fit a little ~

Honestly, it's a good read in my opinion, cliffhanger ending with happy ending being ambiguous. ~

The real villain here, I can't despise him totally despite the fact he does very fucked up things because there's a certain level of masterfulness in being such a skilled mastermind to orchestra everything but what makes them good is the same thing that makes them inhuman, because they (the ultimate viilan mastermind character) would never truly love someone or if they did they have potential to screw it all up unless they become just a little more human to make the relationship work long term. ~

If you like alysum horror novels where horrible things occur, violence and killers than you'd probably like this book too ~

These are the shows that gave us great setups, big questions, and just enough hope to make the cancellation hurt extra hard. Because apparently some networks looked at gold and said, no thanks.

Unfinished Sci-Fi Series That Deserve Closure

The Lincoln Lawyer

The Lincoln Lawyer - Ted Humphrey & David E. Kelley

Season One

I was immediately hooked on this show. The characters are great, and the lead is likable and interesting.

It is an interesting start to a series with our lead, Mickey Haller, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (Widows & Murder on the Orient Express), being handed the keys to a law firm after the owner is murdered.

This setup allows for a meta-plot: the big murder trial with Trevor. As well as many smaller cases scattered throughout.

The smaller cases allow us to meet the rest of the cast as well as inform the wider plot. It is a great backdrop for a series to work around.

Having his ex-wives as key characters in the series is great, as through them we see different aspects of his personality that we wouldn't otherwise see.

The main plot line plays with an interesting concept: you hate the accused, but they have set it up to make it look like he is innocent. There is a further big bad beyond that, the head judge of the courts pulling the strings, which is really scary.

The way all the cases weave and intertwine in the story is what makes this series superb. The characters are fun to watch in action. It's an easy and fun watch.
