May 21st 2017’s Episode

Despite all of the odds against this show, it will be returning sometime next season. What do you know about that? Pretty cool, right? Guess that I won’t have to do any major changes to how this blog is updated. We’ll see if the show lasts beyond next season or not. I’m surprised it even lasted past this season. We’ll see what ends up happening. Guess there will be a long gap in posting between this post and the premiere of next season, especially since it is going to be on the midseason schedule and could be getting a long delayed, shafted, final season treatment like Person of Interest did. Networks are no longer so kind to shows that they don’t actually own.

Now for the next movie update which will go through everything I see before this blog gets posted. On Monday, I watched The Matrix. I replaced that with The Matrix: Reloaded. On Tuesday, I watched A Wrinkle in Time and replaced that with Thomas and the Magic Railroad.

Now during the summer, I have special ways of watching things that I do when I have enough extra time to watch movies. It isn’t exactly the summer yet, but I still had time for that. I’m just going to mention what is watched and what replaces it.

I watched Baby Boom and replaced that with the Aristocats. I watched Celtic Woman: A New Journey and replaced that with Celtic Woman: Song from the Heart. I watched Bend it Like Beckham and replaced it with Bambi.

Today’s episode is brought to you by ~3 minute delay. We begin with Sherlock writing some sort of note. He then meets up with Watson. Sherlock appears to be suffering from burnout, although Watson thinks that he might be using again. That’s why I could never risk becoming a druggie. You never know when they might relapse. There is more gang talk about Thin Boy. Can they throw in a white person into the gang to be less of a stereotype? Anyways, people, possibly police, but hopefully not, shoot some gang members dead.

The second act has the team investigating what looks like another gang shooting that killed all the people of SBK. Sherlock wants to be away for a while. He interrogates a priest who might be corrupt. What an original idea! He then gives a message to this priest who is working with SBK. Another person is talked to about the ongoing case. Sherlock talks more to this mystery woman who I’m really confused by. Who is she? Is she related like a person thought she might be? Sherlock then talks to a person from a rival gang who insists that the other side started everything. How convenient.

The third act has a terrified, kidnapped woman who delivers a message to a person. It seems that she is dead now. Sherlock offers more theories into what is going on. They interrogate a suspect and he finally reveals information. Sherlock wants to do anything to stop the fighting. Carmon’s roommate reveals more information about the case. She was a witness to the initial kidnapping and was too scared to help. They are looking for a person with possible tattoos. Sherlock and Watson learn more information about the case in question. Watson then has a major revelation with the case.

The fourth act has someone skeptical of the possible fact that Mr. Wilcox, the main SBK member, is the killer of Carmon (probable misspelling) and doesn’t want to trade immunity for the fact that he might have killed someone. It doesn’t seem that people are showing up for Shinwell’s memorial service. I hope that my funeral stuff is taken care of for when I pass. I don’t know if I should assume that it is taken care of or will be. I despise people who assume (or, at least when they say they do).

Sherlock seems to have a breakthrough with the case. Watson is upset that Sherlock wasn’t there for the service. They have it out with each other. Watson makes a possible deal with someone related to Mr. Wilcox, it seems. This is a long act. Sherlock talks more with the mystery woman who I’m still confused by. Is this a lover of some sort? Things are coming. She’s in a place that she set on fire that’s nearby to where he is. What is going on? Why is this show so weird?

The fifth act seems to have more evidence brought into the murder of Carmon. She fought back against her captor. Watson and Tommy bring in all the evidence they have against Mr. Wilcox and it appears that he is sent to jail. We then go back to Sherlock and the mystery woman. What happened with the fire? They kind of glossed over that, didn’t they? Once again I’m confused by this and the discussion that they are having. Wait, is this person real or did he somehow imagine her? They seem to imply that it is possible brain problems of his. The episode ends, making me glad that this show is renewed or we wouldn’t have any more information going for the episode.

I’m going to have one last, important paragraph in this post. Everything afterwards you can ignore. I have no idea yet when I’ll be back with more episodes. That’s because I have no idea when the next, new season will be. Hopefully, it doesn’t get the Person of Interest treatment, although I’d be surprised if the next season didn’t wind up being its last. This will be the last post for a while. I’ll either be back sometime after the season premiere or have a random post or two (or even more) between that time and now. I’m not yet sure if regular updates will be on Thursdays as they have before or not. Just wait until after the show returns and then you’ll know. Now, on to random crap!

Let’s finish the movie updates until this post is published. The next thing that I watched was Bean: the Movie. I replaced that with The Devil Wears Prada. I then watched Back to the Future and replaced that with Back to the Future Part 2. Next, I watched my grade school graduation DVD (which actually doesn’t have any of the graduation on it) and replaced it with my high school graduation DVD. After that, I watched Finding Dory with commentary and replaced that with The Emperor’s New Groove.

What I watched next was Titanic. I replaced that with National Treasure. I then watched Rush Hour. I replaced that with Rush Hour 2. Next I watched My Best Friend’s Wedding and replaced it with Jason Bourne. After that, I watched The Emperor’s New Groove and replaced it with Finding Nemo.

What I watched next was Power Rangers: The Ultimate Rangers. I replaced that with Pocahontas. I then watched Thomas and the Magic Railroad. I replaced that with Shrek. Next I watched Celtic Woman: Songs from the Heart and replaced that with Celtic Woman: Believe. After that, I watched The Aristocats and replaced that The Best Years of Our Lives.

Shows disappearing until midseason are a recurring problem that we see on CBS from time to time. It might not appear again until a drama is cancelled like Doubt was. It might finish airing in the winter, partly during the empty Survivor timeslot. It might not return until May when it could burn off. Those are some ideas or something else different could happen. Since we won’t know when Elementary is returning, enjoy the following video in the meantime.


Back to the movie updates: I watched American Dreamz and replaced that with Avatar. I then watched Rush Hour 2 and replaced that with a tape of a play recording I was in of The Wizard of Oz. That might be all the movie updates that I can fit in for this blog post. I wondered what to do with movie updates from this point forward. I thought of moving different updates to different blogs (as there are different movie lists) or telling you a huge, long update of movies for when the eventual return of the show is. I decided that I will actually tell you no more about these movie updates.



The above link is a blog that I still update every month with updates as to what the cast of the show is doing now. I also sometimes talk in the introduction of the blog about updates to the CBS schedule. That will be where you should check to see when this show is returning. This show is technically being replaced by Ten Days in the Valley although Madam Secretary is taking over its old timeslot. I have no idea when this show will be back and thus have no idea when this blog will be updated again. Sometime next season it will air its season premiere. Hopefully it won’t be as late as the summer, but it might be as long running dramas becoming midseason replacements on CBS typically get their swan song in the end. I don’t even know if I will be back here on Thursdays or not. But when the next new episode of this show airs, I’ll be back with it at some point. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
