We watch a lot of TV and movies! So yeah, we’re fangirling over a lot of things! Each week we come together to highlight all the feels they give us throughout the week. On these Fangirlish Feels of the Week, there are five categories and many thoughts! Ready?
Here we go!
Best Scene of the Week
CATHERINE MISSAL, SPENCER HOUSE
Aracelis: I feel like it has to be Bree and Wrigley at the end of Tell Me Lies Season 3 Episode 6. I think we were all waiting for that moment, and when it finally happened I genuinely don’t think I’ll be able to move on, which is why it’s definitely the best scene of the week for me. The lighting, the constant looks throughout the episode, and the emotional buildup made it impossible to top (and I watch a lot of TV!). Even though I don’t love the cheater trope, they just fit so well together and I honestly didn’t expect to feel this way at the beginning of the season. Wrigley showing up for her without invalidating her feelings, even after their arguments — was everything. I was waiting for that scene all episode, and it did not disappoint.
Rachel: The locked room scene from this week’s High Potential. First, there was the Morgadec ship content, which I’ll DEFINITELY discuss more in a minute. Also, it was a tense depiction of a panic attack, especially for someone with Morgan’s singular mind. Kaitlin Olsen was fantastic at conveying this. The editing was outstanding as well.
Jasmine: I agree with Aracelis. That kiss between Bree and Wrigley on Tell Me Lies Season 3 Episode 6 was definitely the best moment of the Week. I love the way the show built up to that moment over each episode. They had that friend chemistry first. But then we all started to feel something a bit more was happening. It didn’t feel like a rushed or forced moment either. It was perfect and worth the wait.
Ship of the Week
Rachel: Morgan and Karadec from High Potential!!!! This week’s episode was a shipper’s dream. The hug during Morgan’s panic attack was perfection. I mean, the back rub???!?! COME ON! But there was more! The way Karadec looked at Morgan during Oz’s eulogy for his dad spoke volumes. (You’re at a memorial, calm yourself, sir.) Then, Karadec told Morgan that if he ever freaks out, “of all the people in my life, you’ll know what to do.” ALL THE PEOPLE IN HIS LIFE???!? His ex Lucia JUST re-entered the picture and the writers give us all this??? I don’t care how slow a burn this ship is, Morgadec is happening and this week made it undeniable.
Jasmine: I mean I guess I already said it but Bree and Wrigley from Tell Me Lies. I seriously did not have me shipping them in 2026 on my Bingo card. The two of them are just so sweet and cute together. And honestly they make sense as a couple.
Raquel: I totally agree with what Rachel said about Morgadec! So I second everything she said and I’d add Chenford to the mix. We didn’t see much of them on ABC‘s The Rookie this week, but their playful banter, Tim’s wide smile… How can you not love them? This Tim who smiles so broadly and speaks so sweetly and tenderly to Lucy is the same Tim who never allowed himself to feel too much or get carried away. And I really like seeing how much he’s grown. He melts around Lucy like a sugar cube in coffee, and that’s really cute.
Best Performance of the Week
Raquel: Kaitlin Olson in High Potential. The way she so accurately recreated a panic attack, and how a neurodivergent person would react to that situation, was brilliant. It made me feel it.
Jasmine: Anita making the decision to cut her hair off before losing it to chemo on Beyond the Gates. Tamara Tunie delivers every week but the scenes with her in front of the mirror cutting her hair as tears fell, was so emotional. She chose at that moment to take the power cancer was trying to take from her. I love that her daughter Dani (Karla Mosley) was with her too. Because she has the BRCA gene which makes her susceptible to cancer, this was their moment to support each other.
Moment that Annoyed Us This Week
Raquel: Bailey’s selfishness and the way she doesn’t care about Nolan’s feelings or opinions is appalling. In this week’s The Rookie, she’s trying to manipulate Nolan into giving in to yet another of her whims, and to top it all off, she’s playing the victim. Nolan deserves better.
Jasmine: Everyone playing that dumb Paranoia drinking game Tegan suggested on Tell Me Lies Season 3 Episode 6. They all know games ESPECIALLY ones where alcohol is involved are a very bad idea. Pippa even said so! The fact that Tegan was upset because the “questions were lame” was so irritating. And as usual the game stopped being fun when the questions became way too personal.
Aracelis: Okay, I know I mentioned Rob’s alliance with Colton was hurting him as a Traitor, but truly Candice throwing Rob’s name out there made things way too easy for him!! Even though Rob voting out Lisa was strategic, they were already suspicious of her and getting her voted out helped their game, and Candice just had to ruin it. I will say Rob was never loyal to them and honestly he’s playing a good game since it’s called The Traitors, haha! But they could have easily won together and didn’t, and I was excited about that, but nonetheless annoyed!
