This has been delayed long enough, but now that I have access to a computer again, I can work on these once more. With TV Star in the books, this is officially the 1st assessment I am doing as a TV Star!
Season 4 is now under way and already we have had some big things happen, especially with Tisha and Adore. New characters have come into the fold, and most of them are bad news to our Veteran characters. Some people who we have been waiting to see the pasts to we finally got to see. But before we get into all THAT sappy shit, we must first still be sappy and say goodbye to those we lost in these 1st 3 episodes.
In Memorium:
A little something different is in order considering who died.
JourdanBabyXoXo - (Adore Laison - Fire Female) - EPISODE 11 - EPISODE 33 - Cause of death: Shot by unknown cloaked figure The reason I used this song to send Adore off as opposed to usual segment song is because of how the scene she was abandoned at the park played off. Adore had such a sad past that she couldn't be ignored anymore, but even though she died shortly afterward, I'm glad she finally got some recognition beforehand. In a sense, this made that scene in "The Fox and the Hound" so fitting for Adore here.
Final Words: "Adore, goodbye may seem forever, but there you'll always be."
(Arlene Giles - Shadow Female) - EPISODE 12 - We only got to see a glimpse of Arlene or her brother so far, but I still love Arlene to death. She did not take that kid's shit at the circus, so Arlene has effectively become the quintessential antihero of this series. I think she still has a lot of plot left to go, and even if she does lose her brother, if anyone can cope with loss, it's her.
(Carlisle Giles - Energy Male) - EPISODE 21 - We only got to see him once so far this season, but with him being teacher to Arlene, his sister is finally coming around. With the right person, anyone can turn around, and for Arlene, he is that person. He's a bit harder to think of a plot for, but he's not impossible.
There is a song as how I think of their bonding :)
Hints - (Tisha Mai - Water Female) - EPISODE 1 - Ever since Tisha got shot, she's been in a state of decline, but this change was one that needed to be made. She got stale in Season 3 when her life was almost never in danger, but I hope Tisha can pull through this ordeal.
(Ivy Lange - Poison Female) - EPISODE 22 - So she was the one who shot Tisha. So basically... Hints shot herself and probably killed herself? That's kind of weird to talk about, but c'est la vie. I definitely think though that Ivy will be finished this season as a kinda first step to Katherine overthrowing Esdeath. There's a lot of Poison Descendants, and so far, none have been killed off. That is exactly why I putting Ivy down as a lock to die in Season 4. tkoj555 - (Wendy Mayweather - Shadow Female) - EPISODE 11 - Welp, Adore is gone, so how is this going to affect Wendy? I imagine she will either be right back where she started OR she grows a pair and makes the stand Adore couldn't.
(Trinity Holy - Holy Female) - EPISODE 31 - We only saw her in 1 episode so far, and so far, I don't care for her. She doesn't impress me much, but points for being a Youtuber! Dogon/ Macda27 - (Mac Anderson - Nature Male) - EPISODE 1 - The more I read Mac's scenes, the more I am convinced that this guy is the most stale person in the entirety of this series. I'm glad he's moved on, but to me, this only further cements what I believe to be inevitable: Mac will die soon, and he will die before Alexis or Sabrina does.
(Kate Anderson - Nature Female) - EPISODE 12 - Not that it says a whole lot, but I prefer Kate to her brother despite being desperate to have a cock inside her. I do agree with some people that Kate is acting desperate because she doesn't want to be alone, and I do hope she realizes that she doesn't need a lover to have that happen, BUT in terms of plot, this is the route I think Kate should go. She needs someone to call her own friend. She needs a companion. Fell6 (Jenni Valentine - Energy Female) - EPISODE 1 - All we saw of Jenni was in a dream, but I do hope we get to see her again. She's been a great character in her 3 seasons as a Main, so I hope in Season 4 she can finall figure out what it is she needs.
(Violet Summer - Magic Female) - EPISODE 12 - With Jenni gone, this actually good for Violet's sake. She finally is getting some spotlight and stepping up to the plate. This is the most relevant Violet has ever been, and I am glad she is being used for something productive i.e. helping Crimson teach her students. ForYouSelena - (Sabrina Del Rosa - Holy Female) - EPISODE 1 - She still hasn't gone into redemption phase yet, but I do think her fortune will mean that she will get over her feelings of jealousy and I think this could lead to Alexis getting her blessing with Mac. BUT, I think this will indirectly be a cause to Mac's death, and then if/once Tisha dies, Sabrina will sacrifice herself for Tisha when she sees that she has no one left to go to. I think Sabrina will come full circle this season, and then she will be done.
(Daniela Porter - Human) - EPISODE 32 - Like some other people, we've onl seen her once, and that was at the end of Episode 32 when she was accepted to work for Cas. I do think it is possible she could have an ulterior motive, but I am not entirel sure of this, and as such, she is still a giant question mark. Coolkat - (Chandler Park - Poison Female) - EPISODE 1 - It seems like Chandler's big plotline for Season 4 will be with Alison. Chandler is still that diverse character I have come to love and I think she still has some story arcs left to go. Originally, I had her down as a lock to be one of the most iconic deaths in the series to happen in Season 4, and she still could have that happen, but now I am not quite so sure. We'll see what happens to her, but I would be sad to lose Chandler. IceIceBaby - (Crimson Wilson - Fire Female) - EPISODE 2 - Like Sabrina, I think Crimson will come full circle this season. She bonded with Skai a little, but I can't help but feel that this will bite her in the ass given how little I trust Skai. Will Crimson make it out of Season 4 alive? Half of me thinks she will last one more season and half of me thinks she will be killed off in this season's finale. I don't imagine Crimson will make it to the series finale alive though. RyanAndrews - (Samuel Weeks - Air Male) - EPISODE 1 - I think this will be Samuel's final season. I'm calling that now. He's been in Tisha's basement as a prisoner, especially considering that because of him, Cas is on to the Descendants. Now think about who all has been prisoner before him. Out of Natalya, Edward, and Arlene, only Arlene is still alive, let alone even made it out of the season they were all freed. What this will mean is that once Samuel finally gets over John, I imagine he will get the Natalya treatment and die just after he gets his freedom again.
(Cali Parker - Poison Female) - EPISODE 33 - So she's the new person Evan is going to pork. Honestly, she may just be a whore who will come back to bite Evan in the ass. I mean, she called a "rebound woman"! Doesn't that raise a red flag, especially when noting that once she came into the scene, the first thing she did was grope Evan's pecker. _Ivyyy_445 - (Bailey Jaxxon - Human) - EPISODE 1 - Well, Bailey is in for a HELL of a season now that she has a bossy brother to deal with. BUT this is exactly why I think Bailey is the safest character in this cast right now! Her fortune stated her troubles were only just BEGINNING, meaning that it is a start of something else for Bailey that I think will roll over to a new story arc in Season 5.
(Henry Jaxxon - Human) - EPISODE 32 - This guy is going to be trouble in a huge manner for his sister. I imagine he will make it to the next season as well, but I think this season, he will be Bailey's villain, which could lead to him and Bailey disowning each other, and in turn, he will be spending next season in an attempt to win Bailey's companionship back. Topazisqueen - (Brittany Rose - Poison Female) - EPISODE 11 - Oh no. She is going back to who she was in Season 2. The girl I despised in Season 2 is going to resurface! I hope this is not the case and she gets a dose of reality in terms of her sister, but a part of me thinks that instead of her getting through to her sister in a positive outcome, I think she will meet a tragic doom in Season 4, which I will touch up more on when I get to her sister.
(Briana Rose - Poison Female) - EPISODE 31 - This girl as a whole reminds me of this song:
Please note that this is NOT a good thing! She is still a bitchy weirdo, but she does at least pull it off better than Brittany could ever dream of doing. But I think she is never going to get over herself, so I think she will be someone who side with Katherine once Esdeath is overthrown, using what will likely be Brittany's death as a motive to do so, possibly at the accidental hands of Wendy. KaseyHope101 - ("Ruthie" Margaritiana - Human) - EPISODE 12 - We finall got to see what made Ruthie how she is now. I do have trouble accepting that Death was near Moscow instead of somewhere in Siberia as she was supposed to eat a wolf in China, but that's just a minor detail in the grand scheme of things. But the fact she such a huge flashback episode in Episode 33 leads me to believe that she has come full circle alread, which means her inevitable death is all but certain, and I think it will be a huge, emotional scene for her to leave off on. Rawr121 - (Anthony Kuryente - Magic Male) - EPISODE 12 - The predictions of Crimson I imagine will also hold true with Anthony. He is being tricked into thinking Michael has changed from his past ways, but this could be the exact thing that will cause him to get into an emtional battle with his possibly treacherous brother that would result in Anthony's demise.
(Michael Kuryente - Fire Male) - EPISODE 31 - He kids! Pop quiz! How do you think Natala will live on even though she is dead? Is it A. flashback, B. Michael, or C. Both of the above! If you picked C, then congratulations! Ya think the same I do! Here's the thing. Michael is interesting to say the least. BUT I also think he is a fraud. He hasn't changed at all, I don't think. I think he will betray his brother, just like Samuel did last season, but this time, there likely won't be a leeway for Anthony anymore and he will perish. KatarinaDuCouteau - (Esdeath R.L. Quinn - Water Female) - EPISODE 22 - Last episode proved that Esdeath isn't an idiot. She knows Katherine is up to something, and she is desperate to keep rule. But I don't think she will last much longer. Esdeath has gotten a lot of blood on her hands, and that is what will lead Esdeath to her eventual downfall. She will too much spilled blood to deal with and it would overwhelm her. Esdeath is still likable as a villain, which I am glad for. QueenMichelle - (Alexis Ahore - Shadow Female) - EPISODE 21 - So she is Mac's new girl. Honestly, while I do agree that it is disgusting that Mac just moved on to Alexis, I also know that Sabrina did this to herself. Now it's Alexis who has Mac, so when I think about it, who can fault EITHER of them? But much like Sabrina, Malexis will not last. In fact, once she get Sabrina's blessing, that is when Alexis will lose Mac, and should both he and Sabrina lose Mac, this will send Alexis into a depression. But as it stands now, she's not my favorite and she lowkey disgusts me. Katherinee_ - (Katherine Montgomery - Shadow Female) - EPISODE 21 - I'm glad to see Katherine thinking. She knows what she needs to get done, and I think once we leave Season 4, Katherine will become the new big bad. Esdeath has had a lot of blood on her hands, which is something Katherine can almost certainly use to her advantage. I anticipate Katherine won't be just a pretty face for much longer.
(Alison Maddox - Human) - EPISODE 31 - Out of Katherine's characters, I prefer Alison. There's something about fortune tellers that intrigue more than a lot of other characters, though I wouldn't go as far as to say I'd prefer a fortune teller over something like a dragon when I read stories. I know a lot of people don't read the Eragon books, but Alison kind of reminds of that fortune teller lady from those books that I can't quite pinpoint the name of, except she didn't sleepwalk like Alison does. The symbol she bears intrigues me too because what if it's the same one Carlisle saw on Arlene last season in Episode 26? Needless to say that of all the newcomers, Alison is so far the one I like the most. Turkeylover - (Angel Devon - Holy Female) - EPISODE 22 - Angel is becoming a huge character that I almost wonder how she isn't a main. But then again, she hasn't had something of a plot to call her own like some other people, which is what I think makes a Main. I do like Angel, but I don't think she is going to last too much longer. Aerodynamics - (Evan Decker - Human) - EPISODE 21 - When he first came in Season 3, I liked who he was, but I was still watchful of him, sensing he would be trouble. Now that this was proven right in the Season 3 finale, he's been nothing but a scumbag since. Not only does he hate Kate for her powers, but now he is looking to move on from her. I can just imagine how he will react once he knows Cali ALSO has powers too. He can't stay away from the Descendants forever, and I imagine his new thoughts towards Kate will be like this song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elznTvx8l50
(Peyton Smith - Human) - EPISODE 31 - So he's basically the new Kate man in these parts, but the way I see it, I can imagine him being a villain to Kate that could be working with Cali, and I imagine that once this is revealed, Kate will finally learn her lesson. Possibly Evan too depending on what happens. Kelly2722 - (Tori Michaels - Shadow Female) - EPISODE 23 - Well Tori is certainly taking on that Mada grandchild role like a champ! But not much else can be said about her. In some ways, she is a huge under-the-radar wild card. Osiris - (Skai Lehman - Magic Female) - EPISODE 31 - By now, it's no secret. I do not trust that Skai is actually in it to side with the good guys. The amount of trust I have towards Skai is even less than me being able to throw the sun. At the end of Skai's scene with Crimson, Crimson notes there is something different about Skai, but who said that was a good thing? No one, that's who! So who's to say Skai isn't planning something behind the scenes, like possibly removing Crimson as a threat. I have my eyes on you, Skai! Blujay112 (Cas Westlock - Human) - EPISODE 32 - She's been in just one episode, but already she annoys me. That being said, she does give me Jonah Jameson vibes.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GodjfQ7uJp0 imprincearthur (Paulie Fraser - Holy Male) - He has not made an appearance yet, so he does not get assessed. I DO think he will become the first Holy Descendant we get to be villainous, but that's just going off speculation. Kaylee21 (Kodi Spencer - Poison Female) - EPISODE 31 - I don't care for her to be honest, but at the same time, I onl got to know her for all of 2 seconds thinks to Briana over there.
And that's all for this assessment. Those who are taking part in the series Strathford, please note that that could very well be the next blog series I assess though I haven't completely made up my mind about that yet, so do be on the lookout. I've made a few bold predictions in this assessment that I felt needed to be made for the sake of staving off making too many theories as well as reinforcing those I have made in the past.
As always, I hope you all enjoyed reading this as much as I did writing this up. It's a huge one, I know, but it feels right considering how long we've all waited. See you all next time!
LOVE THESE.
I pretty much agree with you on everything. Chandler I think is joining Tisha with "classic character" status. I worry for Crimson's fate as she has had almost every twist and turn we could imagine with her sub plot.
I love Arlene/Carlisle's storyline. Arlene still needs time to grow for when she can be able to stand on her own. Once she geta there, i think it all comes down to if Carlisle can continue on the plot or if he will die for her development. I love Cas and Alison's diverse personalities (Cas has tons of potential) im excited for Henry and Bailey's storyline as well.
I agree _ivyyy_445. Honestly, the whole development thing is actually why I think Bailey and Henry have nothing to fear in terms of surviving this season. lol And I love the storyline of my characters too, so yeah, anytime they're in, a smile's on my face. :)
Ah, there's one important detail I left out about Alexis that I think should worth mentioning. Having had sex with Mac, let's say both Mac and Sabrina die and Alexis is still alive coming into Season 5. While it's not the likeliest thing ever, could there be a chance that Mac got Alexis pregnant, making Alexis the first pregnancy of this series?
I feel that a series finale is coming eventually considering we're now upon the 4th season. I wonder how long the series can continue for until we eliminate every possible event imaginable. Going off of what you said Icarus_Mark, if infact Alexis did get pregnant I wonder if the possibility of a hybrid descendant being born and how it would affect future events. A Nature and a Shadow descendants gene's mixing could create something we've never seen before.
On the other hand I feel that the season is pushing towards the eventual deaths of characters such as Sabrina, Crimson and possibly Mac. Whether Aydanmac01 has an end goal or not I feel removing more of the S1 characters gives room for newer characters to enter the fold and take center stage as we've come accustomed to those from S1 and travelled with them mainly throughout the series.
Who says both can't happen at the same time (like Mac got Alexis pregnant now and then Mac is dead while Alexis is just finding out about her pregnancy or something along those lines)? :P
You think so like me. I think there will be a battle between Ivy and Katherine somewhere this season, but surely Kath won't die. But there might be a twist from our expectations in which Esdeath kills Katherine.
I pretty much agree with you on everything. Chandler I think is joining Tisha with "classic character" status. I worry for Crimson's fate as she has had almost every twist and turn we could imagine with her sub plot.
