I would first like to admit that when I saw the title of the episode, I laughed and began to sing “The Climb” by Miley Cyrus. Everybody now… “It’s the climbbbbbbbbbbbbbb”.
So, without further ado, I shall just go straight into my recap train and ride away into the snowy plains and up The Wall. God, that’s so lame.
Ain’t this late? Yes, it is! Because I spent quite a while applying for a job. The perks of being a 20-something in this world. I say “world” because all 20-somethings in this world are probably feeling the same way as me and not just 20-somethings in Singapore. Except if your name is Chris Colfer and Darren Criss, of course. Those two can make me feel bad about myself sometimes. Let’s see how Chris and Darren ruined my life: Darren is 26 years old and he went from being a YouTube star singing Disney songs in his room with his guitar and playing Harry Potter in a parody to being an actor in Glee, which you may hate but it’s a popular show anyway, and now acting in a feature film with Kristen Wiig and Annette Bening and was in a Broadway show called “How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying”. Chris Colfer, meanwhile, auditioned for the role of Artie on Glee but instead got a new role written just for him and then he just decided to make me feel more incompetent by being named one of Time‘s most influential person in 2011, won the Golden Globes and nominated in several others like Emmy and SAG, is New York Times‘ No. 1 bestselling author of The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell and Struck By Lightning, which he also produced and wrote as a film, and he’s only turning 23 years old this year! To top it all off, these two just decided to ruin myself more by being hot individually and together as a couple (on a TV show). Do you feel bad about yourself now?
But I’m going way off-track here.
I’m supposed to recap the latest episode of Glee titled “Wonder-ful”. Like I said before, it’s going to be filled with many a Stevie Wonder songs and Kurt, Mercedes and Mike are back in McKinley High. And because Kurt is back in McKinley High, I’m going to start off my recap with New York side of the story. I always save the best for last *wink wink*
Come aboard my recap train. Choo-choo!
The last episode of Glee, we had an eyeful of Blaine’s butt but the latest episode of Game of Thrones raised the bar by having more naked butts and many other NSFW scenes. Some people who “ship” some of the characters would be happy with this episode – there are progresses in storylines and some surprises in store. I love the little flashback from Season 1 (Hey, Ned Stark!) and Season 2 that this episode has so I guessed there would be mentions of it in this episode.
So, onward with my recap…
I should curtsie first of all because in my previous Glee-related post, I guessed that this episode will involve a blackout and I was right! A round of applause for me. Thank you! Thank you!
There are many songs in this episode, which also means there are many storylines, which also means that I can’t remember what happened in the episode half the time. Unlike Game of Thrones – many characters, many different storylines but I could still remember what happened in an episode of the show without having to rewatch when I’m recapping. But Glee? No, I have to rewatch to recap, which is infuriating!
Anyway, on with the show, shall we?
I am so incredibly excited after watching this episode. The ending is so epic that I can’t wait to tell you the epicness of this episode!
And since I can’t wait any longer, here is my recap of the epicness that is “And Now His Watch Is Ended”.( I know it’s just the way they probably talk but goodness, I twitched a little at that title.)
I don’t know if it’s just me but everytime I see the words “sweet dreams”, I start singing Eurythmics’ “sweet dreams are made of thisssss who am I to disagreeeeeee”. Anyone? Just me? Okay. I shall be alone in my corner singing the song and waving my hands up in the air.
So, anyway, this episode of Glee is called “Sweet Dreams”, which is about dreams. What else would it be, right?
Onward to my recap…
Delayed recap of Game of Thrones is so delayed.
So this episode had no Bran and Rickon (Awww…) and no Joffrey (Awesome! I wouldn’t have the urge to punch the screen!). I love how the writers/creators of Game of Thrones somehow managed to juggle the many characters in the show and still retain continuity – something Glee needs to learn.
Anyway, onward and let’s do the walk of punishment (I am so funny, can’t you see?)
So, here we have it, folks. The last episode ever of Spartacus.
My tears have yet to be dried upon my cheeks as I’m writing this recap. The episode was a great way to end a beautiful journey and a great show. For those who know the history of Spartacus will know how this episode will end. Yes, the Third Servile War was real and so was Spartacus.
If you have not watched the episode, please do not read any further than this line because of major spoilers.
As mentioned in my post a few days ago when I reviewed the songs from Glee for the latest episode, there are only three songs in this episode, which means that there will be a plot in this episode! Gasp! Glee has a plot? Yes, Glee has a plot and I am surprised to say that I actually watched the whole episode and enjoyed it.
If you have not watched it and do not want to be spoiled, do not go any further than this.
Game of Thrones is probably the only show with opening credits that I will watch for. Hats off to whoever who did the opening credits. The song was great and the graphic changes as the plot goes along depending on what other places are added to the story. If you notice, this season, the graphics for Winterfell is on fire. Brilliant minds!
Anyway, I’m not here to talk about the opening credits of Game of Thrones. I’m here to recap the latest episode of the show.
Last week’s episode set off the pace for the rest of the season. We saw Daenerys trying to form an army, Tyrion had a chat with his dear father on his living conditions after he helped defeat Stannis’ forces last season, Robb Stark put his mother under house arrest while Jon Snow joined the Wildings.
