How to Get Away with Murder
ABC
WHAT HAPPENED: Well, we finally know what went down at Trotter Lake (Tiffany was gang raped, but the details of Asher's involvement are still scarce). And the fate of one of the Tate siblings (Catherine, in the trunk of Frank's car, where so many have come before her). And that Michaela has epically bad taste in men (closeted, related to Rebecca, probs a murderer, respectively). The thing we still don't know: Who shot Annalise Keating? With lines like "Juries love a secret baby" and "I have to go handle a bitch," it really could have been anyone, but EW recapper Marc Snetiker is working on a different murder theory, and he hates to say it as much as you hate to hear it: Philip, the just-discovered secret 26-year-old son of Catherine and Caleb's aunt just might find and kill Oliver -- he's spying on Ollie through his webcam, after all -- "setting into motion a string of tragic events that force a distraught Connor to violently confront the crew at the Hapstall mansion." Nuh-uh, no way, no how, absolutely cannot happen.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING: This one was a dramatic rollercoaster for the record books and TV line is counting down the craziest moments, with the No. 1 spot going to (no, surprisingly not the fact that Annalise cooked again)... remember Catherine Hapstall's body in the trunk of Frank's car? Yeah, well, she's Not. So. Dead. After Frank dumps her in the woods, she lurches awake when the police dogs come sniffing. "What in the actual what is going on here????" Excellent question, and appropriately excessive use of punctuation!!!!

Project Runway
Lifetime
WHAT HAPPENED: Color exactly no one surprised, albeit pleasantly so; EW recapper Dalene Rovestine feels sure "fans across the country we're yelling, 'I knew it!'" when Tim Gun used his patented T.G. Save on Edmond, sending a Final Four to Fashion Week rather than a Final Three at the start of Thursday's episode. Kelly, Candice, and Ashley don't seem to shaken by the extra competition though, probably because everyone walks away from their seven weeks of creating a collection with $9,000 completely confident and ready to present three of their looks to the judges. And so comes one of the least positive judges' finale critiques in the history of Project Runway. Edmond's looks are at times lovely, but not cohesive at all; Kelly's separates aren't refined enough but could be saved with over-the-top styling; Ashley's fit for her models needs major work; and Candice... Candice might have to create a new collection because while all her competitors thought her pieces were fierce as hell, the judges felt they were a poor Alexander McQueen copy and far too costume-y. Yikes.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING: On the upside: We got to see Tim Gunn navigate a beach in a suit and a deli in Springfield, Mass. where he held a large sandwich like he'd never experienced deli meat in person before. Joys don't get much simpler than that. But still, things are looking grim; Nina Garcia herself, notorious Creative Director of Intense Situations, deemed judging the runway show just that -- "intense!" -- on Twitter. But it's like Tim Gunn, Creative Director of Sage Wisdom advised: "Pressure makes diamonds." And Edmond and Candice have two days to rework an entire 13-piece collection for New York Fashion Week, so they have the potential to make two of the shiniest diamonds known to man.

The Originals
The CW
WHAT HAPPENED: Three seasons in and The Originals is feeling itself. Or as EW recapper Samantha Highfill says, "Each episode is balanced. The pace is steady but neither too fast nor too slow. And when you put Elijah in a tux, there's literally nothing to complain about." We're treated to that tux because there's a formal gathering of The Strix going down and Hayley is insisting accompanying Elijah to the gala so she can meet Alexis and hear more about this deadly prophecy. Turns out, Elijah sired pretty much everyone at the gala (ugh, awkward), and Aya has a grand idea to bridge the gap between sire lines: Klaus will sire Marcel into their fancy little club. Everything is going fairly smoothly, so leave it to Lucien and Klaus to come in like a couple of drunk frat boys. Klaus better watch it though because he may finally sire Marcel, but Alexis has sired a vision of his death -- too bad she dies herself before anyone can find out exactly how the deed is done.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING: The Originals showrunner Julie Plec is full of juicy tidbits from the set of Thursday's episode, as told on her blog for EW. Episode writer Ashley Lyle was apparently "doped up on painkillers" the whole time on set from having he wisdom teeth removed; Daniel Gillies choreographed his boxing workout from the episode himself (thank you very much for that, Daniel); and Joseph Morgan and Andrew Lees improvised a few of their drunken moments at the Strix party, "including Lucien 'booping' Tristan's nose and Klaus's pronouncement that Tristan's champagne is 'cheap.'" Huh, we wouldn't mind actually partying with this crew... but preferably with less biting and dead, perhaps.
