Roswell Season 2


The second part of Max and Liz's love story involves Liz's insecurities about getting in the way between the destined love between Max and Tess even though Max assures her that his heart only beats for her. This causes a rift between Tess and the rest of the gang, as she always feels unwanted. Right when Liz finally starts to believe that Max will deny his destiny of being with Tess, the "Future Max" appears to Liz claiming that they must find a way to get Max to fall out of love with her in order to save the future and the lives of everyone they know. This leads to a relationship between Max and Tess, even though Liz still has hope that she and Max will one day be together.

The second season introduces the Skins, another alien race from Antar who have been searching for the alien hybrids since they hatched. Their mission is to locate and turn them over to Kivar, who is now king of Antar. It is revealed that Liz's new boss, Congresswoman Whitaker, is a Skin and her brother Nicholas is the leader of the Skins. Along with a renegade Skin Courtney, a Crashdown Café waitress, who believes that Michael, not Max, should have been in charge of Antar, the group travels to the town where Congresswoman Whitaker is from and discover that the entire town is inhabited by Skins and that they are ready for the "Harvest". Skins unlike "The Royal Four" do not have a mix of alien and human DNA. In order to survive Earth's climate they create husks (fake bodies) which last around 50 years. Skins are so called because once their husks start to reach the end of their shelf lives they shed their skin.

Nasedo, the shape shifter who was protecting the teens as well as acting as a father to Tess, is killed by Congresswoman Whitaker at the beginning of the season. As Tess has nowhere to go, she moves in with Sheriff Valenti and his son Kyle. Shortly after, the "pod squad" destroys the Harvest. It is revealed during the "Harvest" that Isabel was named Vilandra on Antar. Vilandra was in love with Kivar, Max's enemy and rival, and she betrayed her family in favor of Kivar. This haunts Isabel so much that it creates a rift between her and Max when they find out that another set of clones of the Royal Four were created. The clones, known as the "dupes", are exact copies of Michael, Max, Isabel and Tess, only they grew up in the sewers of New York City. Their names are Rath (Michael's clone), Zan (Max's clone), Vilandra (aka Lonnie, Isabel's clone), and Ava (Tess's clone).

Rath, Vilandra, and Ava come to Roswell after killing Zan to convince Max to return with them and represent the family at a summit meeting of the families of the five warring planets. Max and Tess go with Rath and Vilandra to New York, while Ava stays in Roswell because she is haunted by the death of Zan. Nicholas returns as a voice for Kivar, and it is revealed that the owner of the UFO museum, Brody Davis was used by an alien many times to communicate on Earth, acting as a puppet, explaining why he believes he was abducted by aliens although he has no memories of the incident. Rath and Vilandra tell Tess and Max that if they give Kivar the Granolith[clarification needed] they can go home to Antar. Max remembers what Liz told him before he left—that "the Granolith could be dangerous if in the wrong hands" and turns down Kivar's deal. Lonnie betrays the others when she meets Nicholas in secret to discuss her desire to return to Antar, as she remembers more about her past life and wants it back, regardless of whether Kivar gets the Granolith. Nicholas tells her that can be arranged as long as Max is dead. The assassination attempt fails and Rath and Lonnie "disappear". Ava, still in Roswell, goes to live a "normal" life and is also not mentioned again; however, she does reveal to Liz that since Max healed her and brought her back she has "changed" and will be different from now on.

For most of the second season, Alex is on a trip to Sweden. However, shortly after coming back and getting Isabel to see him as something more than a friend, he dies in a car accident. The death of Alex has a dramatic effect on Liz, as she is devastated by the loss of her best friend. She finds a photo with Alex's head missing, causing her to suspect that Alex was murdered. Her investigations lead her into trouble with Max and the others when she accuses an alien of killing Alex. Through her investigation, she discovers that Alex never went to Sweden and that he had actually been to Las Cruces College. Just before she boards a flight to Sweden, Liz gets a phone call by which she discovers that a picture of a building seen behind Alex in the photo was in fact torn down before, thus making it impossible for Alex to have taken the picture in front of the building during the time period he was said to have been there. She goes with Maria and Michael and they find out that Alex had been working on the translation of the Destiny book. Even though they find the translation, they are unable to discover the identity of Alex's killer. It is first believed that the women in his pictures from Sweden may be an alien and the one responsible for Alex's death. However, Liz figures outs that the girl that Alex was with, is human thus she could not have been responsible. It is later revealed that the killer is Tess.

Max impregnates Tess while Liz investigates Alex's death. At the end of the season, Max and the others decide to leave Earth after Tess tells Max that their son is dying due to the Earth's atmosphere. Everyone has 24 hours to say their goodbyes. Max and Liz make a last ditch effort to find Alex's killer. Isabel dances with Alex's spirit at his grave. Tess calls Jim Valenti "Dad", and Michael and Maria make love for the first time. As the aliens are about to leave, Kyle remembers how Alex died and Michael decides at the last minute to stay on Earth with Maria. He has found a new home, and, much to everyone's surprise, it's not in outer space. As Michael exits the Granolith, Liz rushes in to tell Max that Tess was the one who killed Alex. Tess reveals the reason she had to brainwash Alex to get him to translate the book. Nasedo and Tess made a deal with Kivar: Tess can return home safely as long as she's carrying Max's child, but she must turn over Max, Isabel, and Michael to Kivar. Max lets Tess go and the gang watches as Tess leaves Earth via the Granolith. Maria realizes that Michael stayed for her. Max tells Liz that he loves her, and that now he must save his son.

Roswell Season 1


Liz, Maria, and Alex are high school students and best friends residing in Roswell, New Mexico. While waitressing at her parents' restaurant, the Crashdown Café, Liz witnesses an argument between two customers and is accidentally shot. Max rushes to her side and heals the wound simply by placing his hand over it, bringing her back to life. Liz later discovers a silver hand print on her stomach. During a biology class experiment the next day, Liz sneaks a sample of Max's saliva and examines it under a microscope, discovering that Max's cells look nothing like human cells. She confronts Max, who then admits that he, his sister Isabel and their friend Michael are aliens whose spaceship crashed at Roswell in 1947. Max divulges that he saved her life because he has strong feelings for Liz. She is immediately drawn to him, even though she is dating the sheriff's son Kyle Valenti.

Liz is initially sworn to secrecy, but she soon tells Maria and later Alex the truth. The group of six reluctantly become friends as they struggle to protect the alien trio from mysterious government agents, curious UFO seekers and Sheriff Valenti, who is suspicious of them. Michael and Maria engage in a heated romantic relationship, though they continue to always bicker, with Maria sometimes terming Michael as "the worst boyfriend ever". Meanwhile, Alex develops a crush on Isabel, but because of Isabel's wariness, they have a hard time getting off the ground. Early on, it is revealed that the aliens had emerged from incubation pods long after their spaceship crashed. They were able to survive as they were not yet born. When they hatched from the pods in 1989, they emerged as human six year olds.

Toward the end of the season, they learn of another alien named Nasedo, who is a shape shifter. He has a violent, murderous past and nearly causes Max's demise at the hands of a vengeful alien hunter who had lost his wife and unborn child to Nasedo. The gang initially believes that Tess, the new kid in town, is Nasedo as she seems to have a strange effect on Max, but it is revealed that she is a fourth alien hybrid just like them. However, unlike them, she possesses knowledge of their past lives and the concept of their supposed destiny.

At the end of the season, it is learned that Max, Isabel, Michael and Tess are clones of the Royal Four of Antar and that Max is the king, Isabel his sister, Michael his second in command and Tess is Max's wife. The four learn that they are alien-human hybrids: their alien DNA was mixed with human DNA in order for them to assume human form. Their mission is to one day go back to their home planet Antar and retake the throne from Kivar, Max's enemy. As a result of this revelation, Liz distances herself from Max, as she believes that she can't get in the way of Max's destiny.

Prison Break Season 2


The second season begins eight hours after the escape, focusing mainly on the escapees. Series creator Paul Scheuring describes the second season as "The Fugitive times eight" and likens it to the "second half of The Great Escape".[14] The fugitives split up and journey to locations across the country with the authorities close behind them as they each pursue their individual goals. Brad Bellick (Wade Williams) gets fired from the prison where he worked as a guard and chases after the inmates himself for the reward money. Several of the escapees reunite in search of a large cache of money buried long ago by another prisoner. Federal agent Alexander Mahone (William Fichtner) is assigned to track down and capture the eight fugitives, but is revealed to be working for The Company, which wants all eight men dead. When Sara discovers her dead father, Governor Frank Tancredi, she meets with Michael, remaining with him as the brothers try to bring down the current President, a Company member. To ensure the brothers' safety, Sara allows herself to be arrested and faces trial. During the trial, the testimony of former Secret Service agent Paul Kellerman, who used to work for the Company-controlled President, exonerates Lincoln and Sara. Several of the escapees are killed or recaptured, but the brothers make it to Panama. Michael, T-Bag and Mahone are arrested by the Panamanian authorities and are imprisoned at the Penitenciaría Federal de Sona where they find Bellick who had also been arrested.

Gilmore Girls Season 2

We're finally back in Stars Hollow, and it's not a moment too soon. The big question on our mind is, "When and where will Lorelai get married?" But she's not even sure yet if she's going to do it. Rory has all sorts of suggestions, and Lorelai is quick to point out that there's no use in fantasizing about a wedding that might never happen.

Rory goes to visit Lane, who's totally upset because she's being sent to Korea to visit her cousins, and her parents only bought her a one-way ticket. Her folks won't tell Lane when she's coming back. Rory tries to calm her friend down. Maybe there's a perfectly reasonable explanation why Lane has a one-way ticket. But then again, it is Lane's Mom, and we all know how crazy she is.

Meanwhile, Lorelai is at the newsstand contemplating a purchase of a bride magazine. Will she really buy one? She lets herself peruse through one and has the hint of a smile on her face. Rory sneaks up on her, and Lorelai tries to deny she's got wedding gowns on the brain. Then, Patty arrives just in time and is convinced Lorelai is really going to do it. But has she told Luke yet? She hasn't, and Patty thinks he'll be devastated. In fact, the whole town thinks Luke will be devastated.

HOUSE M.D (Season 4)


Latest season!!!

During the first three seasons, House's Department of Diagnostic Medicine consists of three other doctors: Eric Foreman, Allison Cameron, and Robert Chase.[55] At the end of the third season, Foreman announces his resignation, telling House, "I don't want to turn into you."[c] Soon after, in the season three finale, House fires Chase saying that he has either learned everything he can, or he has not learned anything at all.[39] Cameron subsequently resigns, having developed a soft spot for Chase.[39][74] This leaves House without a team for the season four premiere.[75]

At the end of the fourth season premiere, House considers forty new doctors for the Department of Diagnostic Medicine, assigning them all numbers from one to forty.[40][76][77] Early episodes of season four focus on cases that House uses to narrow the forty applicants down to three new employees.[40] He makes a reality TV-style game out of it using diagnostic cases as contests.

SuperNatural Season 2




The show follows brothers Sam Winchester and Dean Winchester, played by Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles respectively, who travel across the country in a black 1967 Chevy Impala investigating and combating paranormal events and other unexplained occurrences, many of them based on American urban legends and folklore, as well as classic supernatural creatures such as vampires, werewolves, and ghosts.

Eric Kripke, the show's creator, cites Neil Gaiman's The Sandman and American Gods as influences on Supernatural, along with American Werewolf in London and Joseph Campbell's The Hero's Journey.[5]

The plot of the show has evolved over time, beginning initially with Sam and Dean looking for their father throughout most of Season One. Once they find him, the show becomes about killing Azazel, the yellow-eyed demon responsible for the death of their mother. This is accomplished, but not until after Azazel's plans are completed and a door to Hell is opened, although only momentarily, releasing a horde of demons into the world. This event also sees the death of Sam, who is subsequently resurrected by Dean selling his soul at the end of Season Two. In Season Three, the plot of the show focuses on trying to save Dean from his deal. Along the way, they meet a demon named Ruby, who has an interest in Sam and claims to be able to help save Dean, as well as Bela Talbot, an "acquirer" and seller of occult objects who is constantly a thorn in their side. The brothers eventually manage to track down the demon who holds Dean's contract, a powerhouse named Lilith who also wants Sam dead. However, Sam and Ruby ultimately fail to save Dean, who, as of the end of Season Three, is in Hell.

Ghost Whisperer (season 2)



Ghost Whisperer is an episodic series that follows the life of Melinda Gordon, a young woman who has the ability to see and communicate with the dead. Each episode deals with one or more ghosts seeking Melinda's help in relaying a message or completing a task that will put the spirit to rest, and allow them to "cross over" into The Light, a metaphor presented by the show as its conception of Heaven. Crossing over is when a spirit leaves earth and goes to heaven.

Despite the episodic structure of the show, plot lines that span two or three episodes (normally during season openers and finishers) develop and progress throughout the rest of the season. The first season arc introduced the show's first antagonist, Romano, a negative entity in a black hat, who attempted to do the exact opposite of Melinda and gather earthbound souls and bring them to the Dark Side. The story climaxed in the season finale when a plane crashed in Grandview, and Melinda and Romano both attempted to sway the souls to the Light, and staying on earth, respectively. Her Best Friend Andrea Marino was killed in the plane crash and, in a story that would carry over to the second season, was being swayed by Romano to stay earthbound.

In the second season, two new characters (Delia Banks and Professor Rick Payne) are introduced, both of whom, by season's end, come to learn of Melinda's power and become survivors that ghosts want messages passed to through Melinda. The second season arc revolves around the thinning "veil" between the living and the dead, evident in certain situations in second season episodes. By the end of the season, a second Ghost Whisperer was introduced. His arrival in Grandview sets the final events of a disastrous prophecy in motion, and the strengthening of the dark side over the Light.

The beginning of each episode normally revolves around Melinda first encountering the ghost(s) that will be crossed over in the episode. In their normally brief appearances, Melinda collects clues she later researches. After gaining a significant piece of information that drives the episode's plot further, the ghost(s) normally open up to her, and tell her how it is she can help them find peace. Often, the messages the ghosts want Melinda to pass are confusing and as a result, she is normally met with questions and scepticism by those she is trying to give the message to the families, friends and lovers of the ghosts. By the end of each episode, Melinda is usually able to complete her task and cross the ghost(s) from the respective episode over.

Heroes Season 2



Volume Two: Generations

Season two began in the United States on the NBC network and in Canada on the CTV network on September 24, 2007 but featured only 11 out of the planned 24 episodes, due to the WGA writers' strike. The show aired on Mondays at 9:00pm[23] and consisted of the second volume in the series, titled "Generations", taking place during March 2007.[24] Season two ended with its finale on December 3, 2007.[25] Season 2 aired in the UK on the BBC Two network on Thursdays at 9:00pm, from April 24, 2008, until July 3, 2008. As British television lacks peak seasons and repeat seasons, new shows regularly appear throughout the year. [26] As with the first Season, all BBC screenings were in digital widescreen with no commercial interruptions or on-screen network logos. As with Season 1, every new episode in Season 2 was simulcast in high definition on BBC HD followed immediately by the next episode on BBC Three(excluding the final episode), and each episode was repeated on other days of the week and at weekends to enable viewer catch-up and to attract new viewers.

The second season begins four months after the events of Kirby Plaza. Peter Petrelli, Matt Parkman, Nathan Petrelli, and Sylar have all survived the events of the season one finale, and are trying to return to ordinary lives despite their extraordinary abilities, with the exception of Sylar, who is on a quest to regain the use of his abilities. The main plot arc of "Generations" deals with the Company and its research on the Shanti virus. This research is explored through the Company's founders, whose identities are revealed, as well as through the effects of various strains of the virus on The Haitian, Niki Sanders, Sylar, and others. An amnesiac Peter Petrelli observes the potential devastation of the virus in a future New York City. The "heroes" ultimately come together in an attempt to stop the release of a deadly strain of the virus and avert a global pandemic.

Interwoven with the main plot are several secondary plots. These include Nathan Petrelli's recovery following the events at Kirby Plaza; the journey of new characters Maya and Alejandro from Honduras to the United States, and their interaction with a powerless Sylar; Claire and Noah Bennet and their family adapting to a new life in southern California; Claire's relationship with her boyfriend West; Monica Dawson discovering her powers in New Orleans, with the help of her cousin Micah; Matt Parkman's reunion with his estranged father, leading to discovery of new abilities; the Company's manipulation of Mohinder Suresh; Ando Masahashi trying to piece together what happened to Hiro Nakamura; and Hiro's journey to Feudal Japan, where he meets his childhood hero, Takezo Kensei.

Heroes Season 1



Volume One: Genesis


Season began in the United States on the NBC network and in Canada on the CTV network on September 23, 2006 and featured 23 episodes. Season one consisted of the first 'volume' (episode), known as "Genesis."[19] The series went on hiatus twice; first from December 4, 2006 to January 22, 2007,[20] and again from March 5 to April 23, 2007,[21] with the season finale airing on May 21, 2007.[22] The action goes from October 2, 2006 to November 8, 2006. The first season began in the UK on February 19, 2007 initially only on the subscription TV channel Sci Fi UK, but all 23 episodes were soon repeated on a main over-the-air network, the commercial-free BBC Two network on Wednesdays at 9:00pm, from July 25, 2007, to December 5, 2007, sometimes with two episodes shown back-to-back on the same evening. All episodes on BBC Two were broadcast in digital widescreen and without commercial interruption or on-screen network logos and were followed immediately by Heroes Unmasked, a 15-minute behind-the-scenes documentary. They were also simulcast in High Definition on the new commercial-free BBC HD channel, with a special early screening of the following week's episode scheduled immediately after it on BBC Three. The whole Season was shown without hiatus and there were repeats of every episode across BBC networks throughout the Season, during British prime time (usually referred to in the UK as 'peak time'), late evenings and at weekends, both to attract new viewers and to ensure that current viewers had the widest possible choice of viewing times. The BBC also screened a special Catch-Up Weekend to enable viewing of all previous episodes in a marathon session from morning until night, and repeated the whole Season again during the Christmas period. A special BBC Two network logo was created which was a derivation of the Heroes' Earth graphic, and was used throughout the Season, and numerous mini-trails for Heroes appeared between other BBC shows before and during the entire Season 1 screening, and soon became part of the network's identity.

The series begins as a seemingly ordinary group of people gradually become aware that they have special abilities. Events illustrate their reactions to these powers, and how the discovery affects their personal and professional lives. At the same time, several ordinary individuals are investigating the origins and extent of these abilities. Mohinder Suresh, a geneticist, continues his late father's research into the biological source of the change, while Noah Bennet represents a secret organization known only as the "Company".

While coping, each of the characters is drawn—willingly or not—into the Company's conspiracy to control superpowered people, and into a race to stop an explosion from destroying New York City, which would kill millions of its inhabitants. Throughout the season, the predatory stalkings of the serial killer Sylar and continued manipulations from casino-owner and mobster Mr. Linderman affect the characters directly and indirectly. Several characters' individual stories culminated in a climactic meeting of the characters at Kirby Plaza in New York. These stories included Peter Petrelli's abilities, Nathan's campaign for Congress, Claire Bennet's search for her biological parents, Hiro Nakamura's adventurous journeys, Niki Sanders' multiple personalities, and Isaac Mendez's precognitive visions.
