अर्ज किया है.....

हर नजरसे उम्मीद मत कर ऐ दिल
प्यारसे देखना किसीकी आदतभी होती है

Supernatural S12, E03 and E03

Oh thank God! Sam was rescued at last. It was painful to watch that British chippy inflict horrendous physical and psychological pain on him. Dean and Castiel spectacularly failed to rise to the occasion though. Somehow I knew that mommy dearest would be the one to rescue Sammy. Way to go mom!

More cheer for women is in order, of course. Dear old Rowena did manage to dispatch Lucifer to God knows where. The vessel he was using had totally creeped me out. The guy looked like a horrible mishmash of Liz Hurley, Michael Jackson and the late Hindi movie actor Feroz Khan. Crowley and Castiel managed to reach the crime scene with same punctuality as shown by the Indian police force in countless Hindi movies.

I don't totally get what's going on with Dean and Sam's mom though. Sure, I understand that it would be a tough thing to get back to life after being dead for more than three decades. Where do you even begin to catch up? Plus your own kids are practically strangers to you. But running away is not an option and certainly not for any Winchester. Wonder why she chose that, especially given the fact that she narrowly escaped death twice. You would think someone returning from the Dead would value her life more. I must confess that when she said she isn't sure about being here (or something to that effect!), for a moment, I felt as if she is thinking of ending her life.

But in a way I am glad she is not around for the time being. I was beginning to fear that if she stuck around much longer, something might start brewing between her and Castiel. I am not too sure if angels can fall in love but who knows. :-)

It was cute to see Sam being very understanding about his mom's decision to be away for some time. His EQ is certainly a couple of notches higher than that of Dean.

Wonder if the writers have run out of ideas when it comes to the cases. The vengeful spirit and frozen hearts seems to have been covered in countless horror movies already. Hit the net guys. I am sure there are plenty of other ghosts, ghouls and other assorted creepies, just waiting in the wings to be discovered.

Elementary, Season 5

I had no idea Season 5 was upon us. I was watching an episode of Supernatural when I caught sight of the ads. Honestly though, I am not too impressed with the first two episodes and I won't bother with season 6 if Holmes continues to solve domestic cases. Can someone please drag him to MI6 so we can watch him apply his powers to solving cases of international intrigue?

Grey's Anatomy, Season 12 Finale

I missed the 23rd episode, thanks to the absolute inefficiency of the cable service provider. But the universe conspired to give me a chance to watch the repeat telecast of the Season Finale. And it was as tiring as the rest of this season. Very heavy on emotions, as the rest of this season.

There is something which I have been simply unable to fathom. How can two people who are in love with each other be so absolutely terrified of getting married? What is this commitment phobia that seems to be gripping more than one characters from this show? Amelia has it in droves. This is one character which has single-handedly been responsible for much of my headache as I watched this season. The woman is impossibly unstable. I would have called her scatter-brained, if it were not for her impeccable skills as a neuro-surgeon. But honestly, if I were her patient and been a witness to her indecisiveness in personal matters, I would absolutely forbid her from operating on any part of my body, let alone an important organ like brain. I feel sorry for Hunt. He deserves better. I will be very surprised if this marriage lasts till the end of the next season.

Jo is another one who seems incapable of making a decision when it comes to marriage. At least her reason for doing so was revealed in the last few moments of the finale. But I am not convinced. She can very well tell Alex about her past and I doubt if he will insist on her getting a divorce from her first husband, especially if it might result in putting her in danger. Sure, their marriage will be null and void if her first husband resurfaces but in the society where living together without getting married is not frowned upon, it certainly won't be an end of the world scenario. Then why complicate matters?

I am glad that April and her baby are fine. Also glad that Bailey and her husband seem to have worked things out between them. I am not sorry to see Torres leave. Arizona can now move on with her life.

As far as Meredith goes, I feel sory for Dr. Riggs. Here is one more indecisive, impulsive and more-than-slightly unbalanced lady.

All in all, I am glad and relieved that this roller-coaster season of emotions has finally come to an end. Hope the next season will focus more on medical aspects than the human side of things. Well, we will see next September, won't we?
