-Tory would have got herself fired eventually if that's all it takes for her to snap, not Amanda's fault. Seeing as she's been working at a new place every dang season, I'm guessing that's been the case. -Finally they acknowledge Miyagi saving Johnny and that's all it takes to shut him up. -Anthony is still... not the best kid, but obviously room for redemption considering he's in middle school and all, plus he doesn't want to go as far as the cronies he's grouped up with (peer pressure sucks). Pretty funny how he uses Miyagi-Do as a crutch to act cool while probably never haven thrown a punch in his life. Glad the actor's getting a chance to expand on the character after his glow up. -Johnny and Miyagi-Do don't mix much, but love how he's awakening the snake in Daniel. Hopefully not too much though. :P -Acknowledging the Larusso-Lawrence shippers LOL -The fight choreography definitely feels better this season, I can see it doing wonders for Sam with how fluid Daniel looked in that ass kicking. -Anoush is still hilarious and infinitely superior to Louie. -Y'know, it never crossed my mind that Shawn was Kenny's brother, works pretty nicely plotwise for him to be the gateway for Kenny to CK, as opposed to he himself joining. Great episode overall, think it might be the first one with no Miguel or Sam for that matter, whether it was because of COVID or just to cut down on plot points, I still enjoyed it tremendously. Already seeing massive payoff of Johnny and Daniel together, their rare dynamic together really elevated the show for me in past seasons, love to see more and more of it now.

Man, I held off watching for so long knowing it'd be the finale, but it was nice. Still could've been so much more, but I'm glad we got what we got. Someone go make a petition for Season 6!

Man, I really have to stop watching these while sleep deprived, didn't even realize Russell was the same guy Shade talked to earlier in the episode until after I finished. 😅 This was a fun one overall, nice to see Becca again, the girl talk between her and Angie was sweet. Glad they're committing to having Angie go through the lingering after effects of the shot. Personal stories with Shade always hit the right notes for me. Though as for the current Don subplot, eh, I can take it or leave it lol. I just caught up myself, was so caught up in having Maz back I didn't even realize the show seemingly waved away any hint of their previous relationship lol. Think that wanted to play up the dynamic between him and Danica more, which was pretty enjoyable in of itself, so I'm not complaining. Definitely would like him back for at least another episode or two before the season ends.

Don't really mind them ending the show on a high note, but there's definitely room for more stories and it's a shame we won't get to see them if the cast is so willing to create them. Wonder how much COVID messed things up for Global and if we'd be looking at a 6th season if not for it.

Fun opener, between this and Loki, man my Wednesdays are about to get crowded. Good to see the Liam subplot continue, I always feel like Priestley really excels in those scenes. Shame they couldn't find a way for Becca to be there for moral support. Hopefully the healing process (mentally) isn't rushed and they don't have things back to normal by next episode, some future callbacks to the finale would be nice as a reminder that things won't quite be the same. Edit: Oh, turns out next episode airs on Thursday, nice.

So, near brush with death for a main character? I think I know where this is going lol. Also, it's possible that Nora already boarded her flight when Angie got shot, lots of loose threads heading to next season.

😐

Yeah my bad, I watched it fresh in the morning off 4 hours of sleep, didn't even occur to me that no one actually died in the episode until your post lmao.

Well then, that's more like it. This one's definitely up there for me this season, love a good old murder mystery. Dynamic and banter between Danica and Shade was enjoyable as always, writers did a good job drawing out the tension (though I suspected fake Minister from the second she appeared lol), and we got to see the actual wedding as well. (Stares intensely at Blue Bloods) Other notes: -Paul Sun Hyung Lee! Always a pleasure seeing him act. -Zoe made me cringe internally every time she loudly asked if anyone was there. I'd probably do the same thing, but yeesh, I was just waiting for her to be taken hostage or something. -Writers really could not be any less subtle at this point with our two leads. Definitely gonna be drawn out at least another season or two though imo. -Not gonna watch the sneak peek for next week out of sheer anticipation, interested to see what the cliffhanger/hook will be for next season.

Caught this one late, but I thought it was a decent one overall. Case didn't quite have the usual hook for me, though having Becca involved again was nice. Maybe it was pacing, maybe the last couple episodes have spoiled me, but I won't complain too much lol. The singing portions lulled me into a trance at times. 😅

Pretty fun episode again, the case worked pretty well this time around, felt a lot more personal compared to some other ones this season. Glad they certainly made the most of Willow's character before her inevitable departure, she felt more alive to me than someone like Melanie lol. Kind of disappointed we didn't get a scene with her and Jules, but the role she got suited her well enough already, given that it didn't seem like she'd be a long term character. Additional notes: -Banter this episode was great, definitely got a chuckle or two out of me. -Wish we could have seen more of the party outside of Willow and Shade making pitches. -The fight scene was a welcome surprise, decent job on the choreography too. -Once again, a very on the nose comment near the end regarding our two leads, though I'm sure that'll be one of the potential cliffhangers they leave us with by the end of the season.

I actually enjoyed this one a lot, pretty good way to pick back up the season. Willow was fun, although slightly overplayed at times. Good pacing overall, and I enjoyed seeing Don interact with her as well. Seems like the writers made it not so subtly made it clear her and Shade won't be long term at the end though lol.

Welp, Global says it'll be airing at 10 PM now lmao.

IMDB just updated the Private Eyes page, says next episode will air January 7, so watching both ought to be manageable.

Well, that was a fun one, liked the callback to Angie's fear of heights, pretty nice way to wrap up this half of the season. Plot was interesting for the premise behind it. Feel like it was a missed opportunity not seeing Don hit the green, but guess they couldn't find a way to get Barry Flatman out there lol. Shade's latest conquest was enjoyable, could sense some chemistry behind it, but not sure if she's gonna appear past this episode. Though really, the only thing that really disappointed me in the end was that we never got to see Angie's friend talk to Nick Nurse. Honestly forgot he was even making a cameo, but a welcome surprise nonetheless.

Yeah, this is probably my favorite episode of the season, maybe aside from Conroy's appearance, things felt a lot more contained and grounded. Glad Becca showed up, it felt weird with her being absent for most of the season so far. The parent dynamic between her and Shade with Jules in the middle was fantastic as always. This case of the week was far more intriguing to me, and I have to admit it, I didn't really miss Zoe this time around. Liam fit so seamlessly, his bringing out Shade's overprotective parent side really made the episode for me. And me being in university myself may have also played a role in my enjoyment of it too lol. I honestly had no idea the episode aired late, I always watch it on the Global site the next morning. Edit: IIRC, this season has twelve episodes total, so I presume next week is just the mid-season finale.

Thought it was a decent episode, but idk, something just feels kinda off to me about this season. Maybe I just miss Maz lol. On a side note, Angie sure got around quick, huh? How the tables turn.

I think she's a new character, yeah.

Pretty good episode, we finally got to meet Danica's elusive girlfriend and whatnot, but the real news is, more of our favorite goofball Conroy next week, ay. Can't wait to see what goes wrong then lol. One thing that's surprised me so far is the lack of Becca this season. Thought for sure she'd play a role in the whole 'daughter' storyline, but that wrapped up prettty quickly. Perhaps sometime down the road then.

They're hinting at Shade and Everett getting together (for how long remains to be seen) extremely on the nose every episode, it's just a matter of when at this point. Ofc, this may end up just being misdirection since everyone expects the two leads to get together eventually. The 'daughter' episode brought back an old flame, but I'm willing to bet it won't last.

I think her character is meant to rub you the wrong way, at the end of the day, she's about producing results, no ifs about it. But who knows, maybe they'll expand on her character later this season since she seems to be sticking around for the ride. I don't think ION's bringing it back to the network anytime soon; they haven't even started airing Season 3 yet. Just speculation, but they may just be waiting for the series to conclude so they can air it as an all day marathon like they do with all their other shows. Maybe low ratings got to them?

WAIT NEW EPISODE TONIGHT, WHY DID I JUST FIND OUT NOW

It's just a tiny snippet, but the teaser trailer for S4 has been released on Global's website. If you're like me and starving for even the slightest hint of content with the show, you'll probably love this small scene. :) https://www.globaltv.com/shows/private-eyes/

GlobalTV has revealed Season 4 will begin airing in the fall:
