On DOOL (Wed's ep), Constantine discovers that his "Pawn" card is
missing, and nearly loses it. But dumb Maggie offers to marry the bum,
to keep him 'in country'. [roll] (Constantine = JACKPOT!!) Meanwhile,
dumb Paulina busts out of the hospital, to rescue Chanel (which she does
- disappointingly, no Clyde is involved...), but Paulina irradiates
everyone in so doing!!

On GH (Tues' ep), basically nothing important happened at all. Though it
was revealed that Sonny and Brick did indeed have Agent John/Jagger
Cates roughed up. Meanwhile, Trina forces Josslyn and Dex to talk - they
look to be well on their way to getting back together.

 I watched SURVIVOR where they had one of the wildest Tribal Councils.
They had a plan going in but Q threw that out by volunteering to be
voted out because he felt like the likely target shouldn't have been
targeted. Which ended up with yet another surprising vote that was a
blind side of the player being voted out.
 

What in the world was up with that council?!?  I was half asleep by the end, but didn't they vote out the original target?
I also have to say deciding who to vote out based on how they play "hide and seek" is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.

 In addition I watched an older animated flick JUSTICE LEAGUE VS TEEN
TITANS. In this film we have Trigon again trying to escape and rejoin
with Raven. In this film he manages to get influence on Earth and use
that to take over members of the Justice League. Things go badly until
they go better.
 

I have several animated DC films waiting to be watched.  Normally I would watch them as soon as I got them, but I've developed a bit of a backlog.

What did you watch?

I watched:
Shōgun (FX) - "Chapter Nine: Crimson Sky" - Penultimate episode.  This was an excellent episode.  I especially loved the sequence when Mariko tries to leave.  "Kill him for me."  "It was an honor to die for you." Next week better be an hour long all out battle or else!  That and Blackthorne better finally get to sale his ship in battle!
Fallout (Amazon Prime) - "The Radio" and "The Beginning" - Last two episodes of the season.  As best I can tell, they answered all the questions raised during the season.  They explained the truth behind the vaults, what (and who) caused the apocalypse, how some people are walking around hundreds of years after the war, and more.  It is really refreshing to have a series wrap up all the mysteries by the end of the season while leaving plenty of room for more stories next season.
