Librarians opening title 3-4The Librarians and the Self-Fulfilling Prophecy – Director: Dean Devlin/Writer: Tom MacRae

This one starts with Eve, Jacob, and Ezekiel waking up in a weird cave soaking wet and with no memory of how they got there, or why Cassandra is missing. (Although Ezekiel is sure he remembers pizza, so that’s something at least.) Their phones are fried and they meet a cleaning woman (Nina) who seems just as confused as they are. Eve has an hourglass, but has no idea where she got it or what it means. Continue reading “Librarians Reviews: Season 3, Episode 4”

But one guy (Barry) is bored out of his mind, so when a voice tells him to go into a restricted chamber, he obeys and finds a cool sarcophagus with a mummy in it.

The Librarians Season 2 Overview

Well, that’s it for Season 2 of The Librarians. The structure was a bit different from the first season, with Prospero turning out to be more of a motivator than a recurring villain. The team was forced to search for artifacts and shut down possible sources of power, but only really confronted Prospero at the beginning and end of the season. Continue reading “The Librarians Season 2 Overview”

Librarians opening title 2-10The Librarians and the Final Curtain – Director: Marc Roskin/Writers: John Rogers, Paul Guyot

This one continues directly from last episode, with supercharged ley lines in the sky disrupting the internet and the world’s power supplies. Flynn likens it to the Carrington Event of 1859, when solar flares disrupted telegraphy all over the world … except this is a magical Carrington Event, so it will wipe out all technology.

This one starts at a top secret DARPA research lab where a team (one of whom is playing a first-person shooter video game when he’s supposed to be working) has put together a computer using an unknown material that lets the computer work faster than any before it … basically a shortcut to quantum computing. During a demonstration for a bigwig general, the core overloads and everyone tries to evacuate. Continue reading “Librarians Reviews: Season 2, Episode 8”

Librarians opening title 2-7The Librarians and the Image of Image – Director: Emile Levisetti/Writer: Paul Guyot

This one starts in London, where Jacob and Cassandra are hanging out after doing some research to find Prospero. Outside a club called Effigy, a jauntily-dressed dude crosses the street and gets hit by a car, but it doesn’t affect him at all. Instead, a girl who just came out of the club goes flying twenty feet through the air. Jacob catches her and realizes magic is probably involved, prompting Cassandra to wonder why the Clipping Book didn’t warn them. Continue reading “Librarians Reviews: Season 2, Episode 7”

This one starts in Hawthorne, New Hampshire where a mayoral race is underway between two candidates (Keating and Denning). A woman who works for Denning’s campaign (Brandy Vargas) crashes her car and runs off like someone is chasing her, although we don’t actually see anyone. Something’s definitely chasing her though, as a fiery hole opens up in her motel room and draws her inside, leaving a strange sigil burnt into the wall.
