As a person who enjoys good TV shows this is one! I don't enjoy the "sex" aspect of tv nowadays. I want to be intrigued by the storyline. The telling of how it started, why we are where we are, how we got to where we are. So many shows today start with a story then add sex thinking some viewers only enjoy the story when people are getting naked. No thank you.

Now we start where the movie ended. 14 years earlier a war happened. Picard tried to help only to be stripped of his title. Androids started the war and therefore wiped out. Data was deconstructed, but his "daughter" survived. The Ramulens sneaky people have a secret group lurking around and try to destroy the "copy".

Picard makes it his mission to help his dead friends daughter survive.

If you hate the "sex" aspect of shows, yet enjoy a good watch. Try it on.

I wanted so bad for Wesley and Fred to finally have the love that they deserve.

The boys try so hard to save her and yet, the un-succeed. It's a shame because I absolutely adored her.

However the thing that she becomes is even more impressive. I do wish they had a sixth season to see her truest potential arise. Alas she somewhat progressed in the coming comics.

I'm so over Gabby and Casey! Please stop putting them together, they don't match. There's no spark no sizzle only snooze! If your setting them up for a dramatic season finale (she's pregnant) just don't.

I'm happy that it worked out with Kidd, she's one of those that deserves more!

What's with the chick working with Severide? Her hair cut is awful, she looks like a boy. Last episode she asked about Casey being single only to place dreamy eyes on Kelley. He's with Kidd back off!

LOVED seeing Otis! I wish he didn't want to leave the show. He was an amazing asset to the Fire Team and I teared up watching up.

Watch until the end! You'll be...

I actually really enjoy this movie! Yes it's super corny and the plot is somewhat predictable, it has a feel good ending. The daughter is a spoiled latte, phone in hand and where are all the cute boys. The son is friendly and just wants what's best for the family. They get stranded on a drive to a hotel, in Nowhere Colorado. I'm from Colorado and wish this town existed. I'd rent a place and stay all December, well maybe the last two weeks of the year. Overall they understand that money and things aren't what counts. I applaud this.

After the season premiere I tried to see if this season would get better?!? NOPE!! I mean really Natalie LOCKS herself in a patient room and gives medicine to him without parental consent and the parents STAY at the hospital? If it were me I'd have taken my child to another hospital all together. Not mention the ethical standards to treat patients. She should have been fired and sent home at that point! Will makes unethical decisions to a patient and again nothing happens. The cancer storyline for the head nurse is horrible and I HATE it. The new "cowboy" Dr is a joke! This whole Chicago (all) PD, Med, and Fire are ridiculous I'm over all the Chicago's and most of this one of MED I'm done. Thanks but nope!!

In order to under to understand this movie, you'd have to have read or have an understanding of the books. The original author P. L Travers wrote Mary Poppins to be in fact a little pompous and harsh. She's a perfect person, from her beauty to her magic. Who wouldn't be pompous. The original movie (to which I absolutely LOVE) made Mary Poppins "cheery" which lead people to love her. As did I, however the author hated and I can't stress that enough hated the movie.. I think she felt that her character had been; in lack of a better term, dumbed down. Mary Poppins isn't a mother she's a nanny with a mission to help the Banks children through a tough time. Not to be mistaken as a fill in mother. Her harsh tone, and no take nonsense attitude is in fact what some children need, not all! But yes gasp some!

Emily Blunt (in my opinion) did a phenomenal I repeat phenomenal job at the character that P.L. Travers wrote. Right down to the facial expressions. While I agree with others some of the movie was plain and reminded a lot of the first movie. Father had children needing looking after, mother is working for women's rights (YES!!!) in come Mary Poppins, this movie follows the first. In the original I do wish the mother hadn't given up working for women's rights to take care of her children, but I don't have kids so I guess that says something. In this movie Michael (original boy grown up) has kids and his wife has passed away. This rendition follows the original; however instead of tidying up the nursery, they take a bath in order to clean themselves up and end up under the ocean with a musical number I've already forgotten. Instead of popping into a painting they end up strolling in a porcelain bowl with a horse and carriage on it with yet again a musical number that holds no candle to supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!! No "go to sleep", yet something about remembering their mother musical number was pretty nice way to some up that mother is with them in spirit. I think the roof top number will always be my favorite in the original however the lamp lighter number was fun and it made me remember why I do love Mary Poppins. The end was ok, it was nice to see Dick Van Dyke strut his stuff and let us all know he's still got it! Bonus to the captain and his cheery "time" cannon!

All in all, I did not hate this movie. I have to think P.L Travers would have loved Emily Blunts version of Mary Poppins.
