3 big finales you probably missed

As most of you know this was a big week for TV. Most shows had their season finales. While I don't follow all TV shows I do like to watch season finales to see what big episodes are happening. This brought me to one show I do follow but rarely blog about and two shows that I don't follow closely but had HUGE season finales. Let's go through them shall we?

CASTLE
Wowie people. Now as most of you know I am a die hard NCIS fan but after seeing both finales this took my vote on the episode of the week poll. I mean I only began watching Castle because basically I'm in love with Nathan Fillion. The acting of pretty much everyone else kinda stunk. But then, something changed. Maybe I changed - oops - I mean I began to have a new appreciation for the show and many of it's characters. Stana Katic grew on me as did her hair. In the beginning she had some of the WORST hair styles I have ever seen but finally in season three it looks good. But the point is that the UST (unresolved sexual tension for the newbies) was really REALLY good. So this episode was monumental.

Background - We have Beckett's mother's murder that is at the heart of the show. Castle originally opened it back up for Beckett. Then she found out more and more leading to an epic kiss between the two.

Then this episode comes. People involved in the case are being killed off. Castle confronts Beckett and tells her to walk away, that the people she loves don't want her to die. He mentions her boyfriend Josh and her Dad. Then Beckett asks about Castle? What about him. He simply puts it that he doesn't want her to die because he's her partner and friend. Beckett questions if that is all. "I don't know what we are! We kiss and we don't talk about it. We almost die frozen in each others arms and we don't talk about it so no I have no Idea what we are!" Whew! I need a break from this amazingness! She sends him away telling her they are over. Ok so long story short their chief is involved in her mother's murder and the head bad guys go to kill him off. Castle protects Beckett pulling her away from the blood battle awaiting. At the funeral Beckett is giving her speech when she is shot point blank from far away. Castle runs to her and whispers that he loves her. Fade. to. black. Obviously she's not dead but from spoilers we know she was not wearing a vest, it was not set up, and it was very near to the heart. Intense baby!

BONES
I don't know if any of you know or care about bones in any way shape or form but if you know the initial story read on.

I'll keep this short and sweet. Bones and Booth are supposed to be together. This has been known from season 1 episode 1. But there has been a long rocky road. Their first kiss was under mistletoe in season three. Well no actually. On the season finale of season of season 5 we find out they actually kissed the first case they were on then had a huge blowout that threw them apart. Then Booth confessed his feelings for Bones in that same episode but Bones shoots him down. So he got a lovely girlfriend. Hannah - aka - the devil. Ok no she was very nice but the devil still. Then in Season 6 episode 9 Bones confesses her feelings for him but Booth shuts her down because he has Hannah. Bones cries and my heart shatters. Then in episode 13 Booth and Hannah break up because Hannah doesn't want marriage. Which brings us to the penultimate episode. A bunch of stuff happens in the middle but it doesn't really matter.

So one of the interns that works in the Smithsonian dies and it is taking a toll on everyone so Booth invites Bones to stay at his house. Just for safety ;) right. Well about 3am she comes in crying because of the intern dying and he holds her. Fade to black. We see nothing else. Until she comes talking to Angela. This was probably my favorite scene because Bones tells Angela that she climbed into bed with Booth right as Hodgins walks in. Angela screams at him to go away. He insists but Angela persists and he leaves. We never hear the conversation. So the finale.

Booth and Bones seem normal. The case involves a bowling alley so they have to go undercover as a couple. It is super cute. All is normal until . . . So Angela is pregnant and has her baby. After all the hugs and kisses Booth and Bones are walking home when Bones asks Booth how Angela and Hodgins are feeling. He says that it is exciting. They love eachother and it is a new venture. Then Brennan reveals that she is pregnant and Booth is the father! And that is it! Now many saw this coming because Emily Deschanel is pregnant in real life but it is still super exciting!!!! I was squeeling!

THE MENTALIST
Jane killed Red John. Yup it's true! Just like that. Ok well there is a little more to the story. So. The team knew that Red John had an accomplice and had 5 suspects. The head director, their personal director, Van Pelt's Fiance, I don't remember the other two but they were important people too They told each suspect that they had a witness hidden in a hotel room and they told each person a different floor so 205 305 405 505 and 605. Then they set up camera's in each of the rooms and waited. Eventually a person came in the room and she jumped and killed herself before they were able to catch her. But they knew the hotel room so they knew who it was. They set up the meet in a mall food court hoping Red John would also show. But. Here's the kicker. Right as the meet was supposed to happen Jane realizes something. The woman who came into the room had rope. She was going to swing down into the floor below and the room below was the room given to Van Pelt's fiance. AND the two were heading up to the location where the real witness was hidden right then.

So Jane calls Lisbon who of course doesn't answer. Finally she does right as she opens the door to Van Pelt and her fiance. Jane tells her and she turns around and gets shot. But she has a vest of course, still she's down. Fiance is holding a gun to Van Pelt and Lisbon throws a pillow at him then Van Pelt shoots and kills her own fiance. But this isn't over yet. So Lisbon is talking to Jane on the phone and Jane has her push redial on the Fiance's cell phone. A man sitting right next to Jane's table answers with a creepy voice and just says "Oh well you win some you lose some." This guy mind you is played by Bradley Whitford. He plays Carmen's dad on Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants AND Josh on The West Wing! What the heck right? So Jane goes over and asks him who he is and he responds, "I have many names but I'm most known as Red John." He has a gun on Jane. They talk and Red John says he thinks he is done killing and it is time to find a new way to give back. Jane promises to kill him no matter what. Red John stands up and starts to walk away. Jane begs him to stop with tears in his eyes. He asks how he knows he is really Red John. "Your wife smelled clean. You're daughter like sweat and strawberries and cream." I guess it was a children's shampoo. Jane is facing him then we hear 4 shots. The place goes insane people running everywhere. Red John falls to the ground. Jane simply calls for the check and sits down drinking tea. The cops come and Jane, still smiling, puts his hands on his head and that's it! THAT'S IT! Red John is dead, Jane's going to jail. What the heck!!!! I can't believe it! I'm freaking out! What will happen next season. Oh well.

So there are three epic finales that I loved. Post anymore that you saw and loved!
