We learned that Raymond Reddington (James Spader) has connections to Elizabeth Keen’s (Megan Boone) father but he isn’t saying how at this point. I speculated that this might be the case or even that he might be her father but it could also just […]Read On »

Cast: Billy Burke, Tracy Spiridakos, Zak Orth, Elizabeth Mitchell, David Lyons, Giancarlo Esposito Writer: David Rambo Director: Helen Shaver Network: Airs on NBC, Wednesdays @ 8 p.m. Original Telecast: Oct. 9, 2013 It is pretty safe to assume that whoever is claiming to be the U.S. government on REVOLUTION isn’t all that they are cracked up to be. In the amusingly titled “Love Story” we learn that the so-called government has been paying the crazy child molester turned cult leader, Titus, to scare the town of Texas where Rachel, Miles and crew have been holding up since after the bombs […]Read On »

Gone is the tired war between the rebels and the Monroe (David Lyons) militia and now we are seeing a variety of storylines going for multiple characters and shockingly, extremely shocking, they are all pretty good. First, who knew that a piece of pool tile could be so damn handy? But Monroe sure knew […]Read On »

August Richards Writer: Jed Whedon, Maurissa Tancharoen Director: Milan Cheylov Network: Airs on ABC, Tuesdays @ 8 p.m. Original Telecast: Oct. 8, 2013 The third episode of MARVEL’S AGENTS OF SHIELD was all about Skye (Chloe Bennet) and her contribution to a team of trained professionals with all a certain skill set. Yet Skye’s only skill set is being a brilliant hacker with an allegiance to an organization sworn to uncover the truths of the world. So, “The Asset” focused on […]Read On »

August Richards Writer: Jeffery Bell, Jed Whedon, Maurissa Tancharoen Director: David Straiton Network: Airs on ABC, Tuesdays @ 8 p.m. Original Telecast: Oct. 1, 2013 The second episode of MARVEL’S AGENTS OF SHIELD was a bit of a disappointment. After a really good opening episode full of interesting subplots and witty banter, this played out more like a straight laced action black ops mission – something that we’d see on numerous other shows on numerous other networks. I was aware that […]Read On »

I know that I can. Apparently, those over at NBC and the producers of REVOLUTION can as well. At the end of Season 1 of REVOLUTION, the culmination of the Tower plotline came to be and we saw that Flynn’s agenda all along was to end the war between the rebels and the Monroe militia by dropping nukes on them. The reason for this […]Read On »

Stars: Tony Shalhoub, Jerry O’Connell, Kal Penn, Chris Smith, Rebecca Breeds Writer: Rob Greenberg Director: Rob Greenberg Network: CBS, airs Monday nights Original Telecast: September 30, 2013 In what should have been the worst TV comedy of the fall season, turns out to be one of the best. WE ARE MEN, for all its awkward attempts at sexist humor, provides the backdrop for what is  the freshest new comedy on any of the networks. It also is a stand-out among the CBS comedies, because unlike the disjointed THE CRAZY ONES, it feels like a mini-movie. Give credit to creator Rob […]Read On »
