DOA On TV The Rookie, Will Trent, Matlock, Jumanji : Welcome to the Jungle

 

The Rookie  Out Of Time

Nolan has to protect serial killer Glasser as part of a deal between the long suffering killer and the LAPD.   Tim gets his grandmother’s gaudy purple wedding ring from his mom to propose to Lucy with.  Wesley and former DA Del Monte get a disastrous first case as defense attorneys in their new law practice.  A bit of a filler episode.

 

Will Trent  Our Last Dance

The department says their goodbyes to Amanda, and Will desperately tries one last time to find his uncle.  Sad of course, but I'm still mad they killed Amanda off.

 

Matlock    Two Hour Finale Episodes:  Who Are You, and Matty Matlock

In the season two finale, it’s revealed that Senior has been faking his dementia.  Matty, Julian and Olympia try to figure out a way to prove Senior paid to have the Wellbrexa study removed, though he has had it put back in the files.

Never fear, Julian sacrifices himself by getting a bugged confession out of his father, which implicates all of the senior partners.  They are all arrested by episode's end, including Julian and Senior.

Matty and Olympia will be starting their own law firm, and Matty will continue to operate as Matty Matlock rather than under her real name.

The show won’t be on till mid-season next year, as the showrunner wanted more time to get a new mystery set up and to tie up all of the details from this season’s reveals.

 

Tossed in at the end of the week, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle with Dwayne Johnson, Karen Gillian, Jack Black and Kevin Hart as in game avatars of a set of teens who fall into the game while doing detention in the school basement.  Unexpectedly hilarious.  It’s just the sort of funny, feel good movie I needed this week.

DOA In The Garden End of Day 4/22/26

 

I didn't get the center vegetable garden done.  I thought I had best finish uncovering my perennial beds so they could get sun and rain and air.  Also, I am terrible about getting things potted up in a timely manner, so I potted up all but one of the annuals (a red petunia that didn't look so red when closed, but now fully open, it's really red.) How to work it's color into all of my pastels?

The picture I have for you tonight is the bulk of my Frog Corner frog collection.  Always charming!

Some unexpectedly cool night temps are coming over the next few days, so I'll need to bring my plants in at night to be sure they are doing ok.  It's a ritual at this time of year.  I'm hoping tomorrow's rain comes late, so I can get that veg garden.  If not, I'll wait a few days for the soil to dry out.

I love springtime.

DOA in the Garden 4/22/26 Start of the Day

 Uncovering the garden still, but the layout of the beds is what I want. I’m tackling the center veg bed today. Lots of raking out, using an edger for the Freeform border (for now), and after getting as many nasty tree roots out of the way as possible, I’ll use my new tiny tiller to make the bed really nice.

End of day pics later, I hope.

DOA On TV 4/19/26 The Rookie, Will Trent, High Potential, The Pitt

 

The Rookie  Survive the Streets

I don’t mind “documentary” type episodes where everyone is interviewed about an event.  This one however meandered far too much, and felt as if there was no real substance to the events.

 

Will Trent  The Blank Expanse of Nothing

Will’s attempt to put a tracker on Adelaide to save his uncle results in the death of Amanda, stabbed and left for dead on the street to find.  This one makes me so angry.  I love her character so much and every scene she is in.  To kill her off that way!  This isn’t the finale, and there’s no excuse for her “shocking death”.

 

High Potential  Family Tree

In the second season finale, a dead body in a hotel unravels things for Karadec and Lucia.  Wagner opts to meet a source alone to find out more about Roman’s disappearance.  He tricks Morgan into coming to the rendezvous at a little later time than the actual meeting, and she finds him on a park bench bleeding out and barely able to breathe. 

 

The Pitt 9 pm

In the second season finale for The Pitt, Robby manages to get in a few words with most of the staff who he should say goodbye to.  The episode ends completely up in the air as far as I’m concerned, with him soothing Baby Jane Doe, and himself.

One of the people he has a word with is Dr Hashimi who has revealed her seizures to him.  He’s completely angry with her for not revealing that to her employers, and tells her she shouldn’t be working in the ER or driving.  It’s a shouting match that ends well for no one.  At the end of the episode, though, she defiantly gets in her car after work to drive home.  She goes a few feet then breaks down crying.  There were two people walking in the parking ramp, and I thought man, she’s going to black out and hit those two.  I’ve watched a few interviews with the actress, though, and it was the thought of picking up her son and driving with him in her current state and the danger of that, that made her stop.

For Robbie, I hope he goes on his sabbatical, but is careful, so he can come back and be in a better state.  Better yet, I want him to adopt Baby Jane Doe, and take the time off to get settled in to being that dad he had always wished to be.  They should let me write this stuff.
