In the second season of CHICAGO FIRE, NBC Tuesdays at 10 PM, Jesse Spencer’s character Matthew Casey is having a rough time. Not only is his fire department job dangerous and stressful, but his dead best friend’s wife is in jail, leaving Casey to care for the kids. And then there’s the ongoing tension between him and paramedic Gabriela Dawson (Monica Raymond) … Australian actor Spencer previously starred on HOUSE M.D. as Dr. Robert Chase. The role of Casey obviously has more physical challenges, which Spencer embraces. Spencer was getting ready to go back to Chicago, where CHICAGO FIRE shoots […]Read On »

Wonderland, the absurdist magical realm originally created by Lewis Carroll in ALICE IN WONDERLAND, has already been visited by the characters in ABC’s ONCE UPON A TIME. This means that viewers of ONCE UPON A TIME IN WONDERLAND, the ONCE spin-off that premieres Thursday, October 10 at 8 PM, will have seen the place before, but the characters are all new. Alice (Sophie Lowe) is trapped in an England where no one believes she’s been to Wonderland – and she’s desperate to return so she can rescue her true love Cyrus (Peter Gadiot), who is the Genie of the Lamp, […]Read On »

THE WALKING DEAD - Season 4 Key Art | ©2013 AMC

Stars: Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Lauren Cohan, Chandler Riggs, Danai Gurira, Steven Yeun, Melissa McBride, Scott Wilson Writer: Scott M. Gimple Director: Greg Nicotero Network: AMC, airs Sunday nights Original Telecast: October 13, 2013 With a show like THE WALKING DEAD, change is expected and almost necessary in order to keep a show fresh and interesting. After last year’s exceptional storyline involving the competing communities of Woodbury and the Prison, it would make sense that the series would move forward. It’s done that almost with the Season 4 premiere “30 Days Without An Accident”, but it also feels more of […]Read On »

CD Review: PAIN & GAIN soundtrack

Michael Bay’s career has been based on brain-frying excess, mainlining images of sweaty biceps, barely-fitting bikinis and joyful violence upon the popcorn eating masses. In the process, he’s encouraged his composers to pump the volume to 11 with rampaging walls of muscular rock-fueled orchestras. But where Bay has often been righteously lambasted for being lame-brained in his stylistic choices, the multiplex king now reveals his over-the-top fetishes as the ultimate act of artistic subversion as he plays the amped energy of murderous adrenalin junkies in PAIN & GAIN and in the process encourages his musical confidant Steve Jablonsky to deliver […]Read On »

And wow, is Sam going to be angry (and – oh nooooo – probably sulky) […]Read On »

CD Review: WILLARD soundtrack

Squeaking, clawing, skittering and doing the polka? These are but some of the musical approximations of being both rat and human screwball that Shirley Walker conjures in her beyond brilliant score for one of the last decade’s most unexpected cult pleasures. As an orchestrator for such macabre Danny Elfman efforts as BATMAN RETURNS and NIGHTBREED, Shirley Walker got to demonstrate a talent for black humor and eccentric orchestrations, seizing upon her abilities for the BATMAN animated series and the hilariously gore-licious FINAL DESTINATION series. It was that gross-out franchise’s creators Glen Morgan and James Wong who had the brilliant idea […]Read On »
