Battles begin this Thursday: the docs battle for the hospital, Jason battles Ian for their own lives, and it’s Pearson/Specter vs. Hardman on Suits!
Grey’s Anatomy
The promos are such baloney! I was expecting the show to be all about Alex and Avery’s competition to be the new “face” of the hospital. Plus they made it sound like the guys were actually interested in the job!
Maybe there’d be some drama with Kepner’s emergency patient with no ER to go to, but there was a lot more to it, as usual. For one, Kepner gets a kiss with the EMT=win.
The docs band together to save her emergency victim and hide it from Alana and the potential investors. And Callie and Webber head to another hospital to check out what it really means for the hospital if they get bought out.
However, the big turning point is when Callie brings Arizona, Derek and Meredith up on the roof to discuss the sale of the hospital: not to fight it, but to buy it themselves with the money they won in the settlement.
I love this idea. I figured they’d at least invest to get the ER back, but a doctor-owned hospital? Like an employee-owned brewery? Brilliant. Promos are warning of a big thing again next week–let’s see if they can follow through.
Do No Harm
They lost me. The first episode was much better. Ian was a real villain. Now he’s just like a kid in a candy store. Buying expensive stuff. Dealing drugs. Poking the snake with a stick until it bites.
It was a little creepy with Ian showing up at Jason’s ex’s house, talking to her kid, but I got reminded a bit of the people on The Following, so at that point it felt like a copycat.
I’m giving it one more week, mainly because I was a little distracted and sleepy when I watched this week’s episode so my perception of it may have been a bit skewed, but if they don’t convince me this show must be seen every week in one more episode, it’s out.
Seriously, I almost watched Scandal instead of this show tonight. I’ve been keeping up with it on Hulu all season, and I actually like this season way better than the last one.
I think the storyline is much more interesting and the characters aren’t so jarring (archetypal/stereotypical? I’m not sure which one fits best, so you choose) as they were when they all first started. They’ve developed some facets and they’re gaining depth.
I have considered more than once adding it back into the line-up here, but because of my busy schedule, I’m not willing/able to do so just yet. Unless there’s another assassination attempt. Then I may have to on general principle.
Suits
Daniel Hardman is back, and no suprise, it’s getting ugly. Donna gives him a piece of her mind, plus a couple of slaps, but it’s not enough. Hardman is out for blood, and throughout the first half, it’s looking like he might get it. Maybe not as much as wants, but a couple flesh wounds’ worth, at least.
The good guys turn the tables on him just enough to make him squirm, but it’s hard to say whether their gamble will pay off in getting him silenced for good.
Rachel is working on her application to get into Harvard because she wants to come back to Pearson-Hardman when she graduates, and contrary to good sense, she doesn’t have a back-up. No Yale. No Princeton. No Columbia.
I’m interesting in seeing what happens if she does get in–will she leave the show for 3 years while her character attends law school in Massachusetts? (Side note: I think that’s the first I’ve ever typed Massachusetts at regular speed without any typos! Side note 2: Case in point, that second time typing it failed–missed the capital letter!)
Kind of funny that her leaving hadn’t occurred to Mike until the end of the episode. I saw it right off. Guess I’m two steps ahead of the guy with the photographic memory, so that’s something.
What I really want to see is for Jessica and Harvey to tear Hardman a new one. Make those embezzlement charges stick. But first, they have to get the affair recognized and have it be disparaging enough to throw out the wrongful termination lawsuit from Monica.
On another positive note, I am so grateful that USA recognized Gabriel Macht’s talent. The guy is intelligent, smooth, and funny as hell, and he was born to play Harvey Specter. Just had to get that out.
Harvey: Mike Ross went to see Monica Eton again.
Jessica: Goddamn kid. He’s another you.
And with that, we’re down to just two episodes left! These half-seasons fly by so quickly! On the plus side, the show’s been green lit for season 3 (this is technically season 2.5), so more eps to look forward to later this year!
Up next:
The Nashville recap is still on its way, though I’m not sure when yet. 1600 Penn and Elementary are on the to-watch list, too, so look for those soon!
