This week’s episode is called “Compromising Positions” and well, a lot of people are caught in such a dilemma this week, most revolving around the law for Neal and Peter and some other things as well.
While Neal’s still on the quest to find Sam, Peter’s trying to fix a problem in the case of the week with some, nay, a lot of help from Sara and some pretty entertaining moments in a drama-filled episode.

“Then she began to weep bitterly, and said, ‘What can a poor girl like me do now?’ ”
Grimm surely has its hand on the nation’s pulse. As pundits are discussing “legitimate rape” and politicians think the words “forcible rape” should be included in our legislature – all a reminder of women’s continuing plight for equality in the “modern world” – Grimm decides to show us what men, who use that kind of language, really think of the female body: a vessel for baby-making. Forget the intelligence and ideas the uterus-carriers possess.
My goodness, if only uterus-carriers can talk…no, wait…we can…if only the “legitimate/forcible rape” morons are smart enough to speak “women.” Sorry, I’ll get off my soapbox. This Grimm episode surprisingly unleashed my growing frustration. Must be my crazy uterus talking!

As The Newsroom moved into its season finale, it finally got up to the speed it should have been for most of the season. Finally we got pay off on items like Jim and Maggie, if Will will be fired and the well overdue slap down with TMI.
The episode began with Will going on the air and talking about how American citizens must have a government-issued ID to vote, but not all citizens have driver’s licenses. But we quickly cut away to eight days before when Mac and his guard find Will coughing up blood in his bathroom. Seems he took too many anti-depressants, but was it on purpose? (Probably.)
For the first time, cameras are taken outside of the “Top Chef” kitchen and into the lives of Bravo Media’s most beloved former chef’testants in “Life After Top Chef,” premiering Wednesday, October 3 at 10 p.m., ET/PT. The show follows Richard Blais in Atlanta, Jen Carroll in Philadelphia, Spike Mendelsohn in D.C., and Fabio Viviani in Los Angeles as they reach milestones in both their personal lives and culinary careers, from opening their own restaurants to expanding franchises and establishing themselves as culinary leaders in the food world.
Richard Blais is a perfectionist with a relentless mind, and after losing Top Chef: Chicago season four, he came back with a vengeance and ultimately won Top Chef All Stars. Richard owns a successful four-star burger eatery with multiple locations and runs a creative culinary company that works with three and four-star restaurants. Following a failed attempt at his culinary dream, Richard wants to invest his winnings to finally succeed in opening a fine dining restaurant in Atlanta. Unfortunately, he struggles between his ambitions in the kitchen and being there for his family at home.
