Most of our beloved series have come to a finale, leaving us to ponder what's more to come this fall. As we come to what I would like to call as 'dry spell', we take a look back on these following series, which can be considered as the creme de la creme of the season.
#10. Bones
Best Character: It's tie between Bones and Booth. This season, we've seen them taking further step on their relationship where they openly admit their attraction toward each other. Eventhough some obstacles come in form of one blonde reporter called Hannah, we all know that Bones and Booth is the endgame and damn we are right!
Best Episode: The Blackout in Bllizard. Bones and Booth stuck in an elevator while the rest of the team are off solving the case with a suspect that suffers from a plague. Intriguing huh?
Score Card: For starter, this season starts off with slow progression, but spikes in the end. A B- would reflect the season well.
#9 Gossip Girl
Best Character: It's as predictable as Twilight in MTV Movie Award. Blair Waldorf taking home this honor. Between everything that has been going on, every girls want some Waldorf in her. However, next season, Blair needs to keep up by knowing that her real happy ending is not in Monacco, it's somewhere in New York, specifically one person named Chuck Bass.
Best Episode: The Witches of Bushwick. Blair and Chuck back together for a moment to cherish, Serena hits rock bottom, and Katie Cassidy is pure evil. CLASSIC GOSSIP GIRL!
Score Card: B for Blair Waldorf and of course all of the stuffs that have been going on.
#8 The Vampire Diaries
Best Character: Enough said, the show won't survive if wasn't for this character. Damon Salvatore is the heart and soul of Vampire Diaries because everything that comes out from his mouth send us through the roof.
Best Episode: The Last Day. It's one of the moment we remember that yes, Vampire Diaries is like Twilight, it perfects itself with sappy romances but hey that's what we want right? #sarcasm
Score Card: B As much as we love this show, yes, we have to admit that season 1 is so much better compared with this one. However, this show still deserves some recognition for some grungy jaw dropping moments
#7 The Good Wife
Best Character: Alicia Florrick. She has come a long way from being that scorned woman in the podium. Aside from Margulies' calm and content manner, Alicia Florrick carries different element of a modern renowned woman with her own path to walk on. It will be very interesting to see whether the 'good wife' side is still there after that game changing finale which tested Alicia's own identity.
Another shoo in for best character? Eli Gold, simply put this character is all you want and ever want with its cunning, sharp tongued demeanor, he's the heart and soul of the Florrick's campaign.
Best Episode:
Foreign Affairs. The much excitement generated storyline about Peter's campaign harbor at this episode. Gut wrenching performance by Margulies that will easily be Emmy worth moment.
Score card: For its complexity and smart storyline completed with graceful casts, would have to give this series a B+ for this season.
#6. How I Met Your Mother
Best Character: Barney Stinson. For one simple reason, BEING AWESOME!
Best Episode: Subway Wars. Hilarious race of craziness in order to name who's the most 'New Yorker'. CLASSIC!
Score Card: Possible B+ for its ups and downs (funny times and serious times)
#5. Glee
Best Character: This season, I would have to pick newcomer Blaine as the life raft of Glee. His vocal stuns the audiences, his charm got us wrapped around his finger, and of course, he's the nicest boyfriend you can possibly ask! If only..he swings both ways!
Another one to pick up the win, guest star Holly Holiday delivers strong pitches with sexy moves. Gwyneth Paltrow proves she is a force to reckoned with
Best Episode: The Sue Sylvester Shuffle, there said it! Thriller/Off With Your Heads cause it's a night to remember!
Score Card: B+ for some of the most jaw dropping melody, dances, and moves!
#4 Modern Family
Best Character: Phil Dunphy. He makes us laugh every episode, I mean who paints his van with his racy family picture, jumps in front of his daughter's moving van, and even sprays a salesman with sample perfume? It's that crazy that you can not even believe it.
Best Episode: Unplugged. The craziest episode where the Dunphy does one of their silly contest by not using electronic stuffs. That can only mean one thing, hilarious that will shake your stomach to the core.
Score Card: For Phil Dunphy's antique, Gloria's still heavy accent, and Luke's adorable expression, A- will do
#3. Body of Proof
Best Character: Megan Hunt. Dana Delany can do no wrong, in my book she's always right; that's what shows in her character. Megan Hunt is sarcastic, ambitious, and headstrong, something we woman have in us. More than that, she's a layer of complication, between ambition and reality. For her portrayal, I figure Delany deserves a nomination for Emmy this year.
Best Episode: With 9 episode this season, it's very hard not to question, why this series is not aired in the beginning of the season (not in the mid season) because we deserve more of them. Judging from the following episode, the Pilot still holds the key to the pivotal development in this series. When it comes back next season, we're hoping to uncover more layer of Megan, and possibly a new romance for this lonely doctor.
Score Card: A solid A for Delany's performance, fresh storyline, and witty remarks by the writers.
#2 Nikita
Best Character: Nikita. She's an epitome of kickass beauty with brain to complete. Maggie Q portrays Nikita with such complexity that we feel so left behind with every moment without her. The twisted plot is brilliant, and heads up all for Nikita's role on it. Vulnerability, tough edge, and everything wrap into one. If only this was not CW, she would have received multiple awards for it!
Best Episode: Covenants. This is what happens when an action movie plot is given to a TV series. Multiple gut wrenching scenes, vulnerable moments, and everything with the word kick ass clashing together.
Score Card: A solid A is given for the twisted plot, outstanding casts, and smoking romance between Nikita and Michael! :)
#1 Castle
Best Character: Richard Castle. Boyish charm, genius mind, and of course attentive behavior. What can we ask more? Hmm, maybe Beckett should've answered that one.
Best Episode: Knockdown. An open wound is opened, once again as new facts regarding Beckett mother's murder resurfaced.
Score Card: Every episode is entertaining as ever, so yes, I will not hesitate for an A+ If you are protesting, see the finale and you will understand why.
As for you, what's your favorite for this season?
