This Episode begins with Robert, he just killed Cameron. Robert bleeds to death in front of The Knights. Salvador took down Alyssa. Terry bleeds to death in front of The Knights and Vera. Jason can be nominated as the new grand magus. Alyssa threatens to burn Salvador her magical book. Jason Priestley is the new Grand Magus. The knights got drugged by Elizabeth her spell. Jason bleeds to death. Alyssa fainted. Jason removed Alyssa her memories about him. Alyssa teams up with Salvador. Solid Episode of The Order Season 2, this was just a little bit better. Not the level i want to see from this series!

Okay, I'll admit it. I'm starting to lean more towards the Alyssa Drake hate-club. I've never loved her or hated her, I've always been in the middle, even after what she did at the end of the first season. But what she just did at the end of this episode was ridiculous and made her more unbearable than what she did at the end of the first season, for me. That made my indifference about her tip one way on the scale. The only way she can be redeemed is if she's teaming up with/joining Salvador/Praxis on purpose and will do a wonderful double-cross at the end of the season. It won't be as significant and mean as much if she ends up doing that after changing her mind, maybe by seeing that Praxis isn't so great or whatever, which is what I'm assuming will happen, or something like that.

I'm liking Elizabeth and Vera's dynamic with each other. The moment where Elizabeth quickly changed her mind once Alyssa came in with the (fake) Vade Maecum Infernal was gold. I love their back-and-forths. They're very entertaining. I hope nothing happens to change that by the end of the season, like one of them dying. Furthermore, I hope there will be a third season so we can see more of their entertaining dynamic. I'm sure many would like that.

The way I see the last two episodes going is that Salvador will be taken down, and maybe Praxis, too, and the grimoire that is required to rescue Lilith will be found, along with everything else that was stolen and in the possession of Praxis. And that's how the season will end, more or less. Meaning, the process of rescuing Lilith will be in the third season if the show gets renewed, which I hope it will. I'm guessing the Knights will go into the demon realm and a good amount of the third season will take place in it or something. This also means that we'll probably get a lot of exposition into the demons and all that, plus new frequent characters, since there will have to be if most of the season will take place in the demon realm, and I think that would be nice. Also, maybe the werewolves/werewolf hide spirits have some relation to the demon realm or have been there before.

This is the first time I've ever written a review. And it's for a Netflix show, targeted at millennials (and I'm Gen X but watch it cuz I like fantasy) and when the OG Gen X heartthrobs turn up as members of the Order (Ian Ziering and Jason Priestley), and start tossing zingers at each other....I'm just....wait. WHAT? I get it, you want to have some fun with a show that's, let's face it, pretty ridiculous to begin with. I mean...it's not Witcher, after all. It's beer-drinking werewolves and relatively competent witches on a college campus in Canada tossing off spells as if the world wouldn't notice. Still. Is Netflix going to get 90210s entire catalog or something? *shrug* That was weird. I laughed, I admit it. Heartily. Enough that my nearly-deaf chihuahua woke up.

So I guess Jason Priestly can put that in his pocket, eh?

A 90210 reunion really!? How stupid! When did this become a slapstick comedy?

Jason Priestly and Ian Ziering show up with no real heads up playing ego driven Parodies of themselves and have a figurative "measuring" contest... I was not prepared for this. When I saw Ian I thought "Well, he's been doing Sharknado & Chippendales...this is a step up for him good for him." Then when they literally nominate Jason Priestly to be the new leader of the coven I was confused. At first, when they made such a big deal about him with a close up and someone said "Good to see you again." I thought I had missed something, I thought he'd played a villain I had forgotten about, and was making a surprise return to the coven to everyone's chagrin. Nope, they're actually nominating actual Jason Priestly (Played by Jason Priestly) to replace the current leader of the Coven.... but it doesn't stop there.... maybe I wasn't paying attention before this happened, I tend to zone out from time to time when I binge a show. But Ian Ziering isn't completely sure he supports Priestly as the new leader, and that's when I realized this character was Ian Ziering (Played by Ian Ziering)... I'm in a small state of confusion and maybe a little bit of shock that I make sure to pay attention when Ian and Jason start arguing about who does Magic better. Jason throws an insult at Ian along the lines of "You couldn't cast a spell to save your career." TO WHICH... Ian shows off his muscles, makes some allusion to the Chippendales and starts rattling off Sharknado and it's subsequent sequels, using his figures in time when saying "Sharknado! Sharknado 2! Sharknado 3..." and so on.... and that's his defense. Sharknado is the magic spell he cast to be a star. At that point I checked out. This was the last episode of the show I've watched, I don't know if it was the finale or back or even remember how the episode ended.

This was such a non sequitur to the show, and distracting to the events that were unfolding in the story that it broke the tether keeping me interested in this series. What do Jason Priestly and Ian Ziering have to do with Witches? Or Secret Societies? Why THEM? It makes no sense. Maybe if was Alissa Milano and Rose McGowan I could get the joke, or something like that. I think maybe it was a Producer or the Director that was unwaveringly married to the idea of this Tet-a-tet between some aged celebrities that they probably sent out the P.A. And said "Go get me Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, or Better yet, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan! This is gonna be great!" And when the P.A. Got back they said "Well I couldn't get Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan. But my best friend's husbands' brother was a P.A. On the last Sharknado and knows Ian Ziering, plus he's like 60% sure he can get..." ... "Shannon Doherty?!?" .... "No, Jason Priestly." ... "Well, I'm not sure how that's gonna fit in. But the Elder Millennial's will LOVE It all the same, even if it doesn't make any sense. Yeah, get them in here... Jason Priestly and Ian Ziering.... yeah, this is gonna be Hilarious!" I don't have time to get into why the whole situation itself no matter who was under the robes, would have been distracting anyway, and probably confusing however it played out. Anyway, that's my rant.
