The Episode Review
The Raising Dion subplot has been a bit of a mystery to viewers. Why hasn’t Dion shown any interest in returning home? Is he still mad at Nicole for leaving him? Or is he just too busy with his music career? We don’t know and that’s why the episode didn’t quite work for us.
The show’s focus on romance overshadowed some of the other storylines this week. Esperanza’s singing has yet to produce any results, while Brayden was noticeably absent from the episode. This allowed for some uncomfortable scenes between Janelle and Fernando, as well as between Nicole and Tevin. ..
The show’s inconsistency makes it difficult to really enjoy it, which makes it less of a great experience overall.
The final fight is upon us now and the fate of the world is left hanging in the balance. Who will come out on top? ..
