Stars: David Strathairn, Ryan Cartwright, Warren Christie, Warren Christie, Azita Ghanizada, Laura Mennell, Malik Yoba, Mahershalalhashbaz Ali, Devon Graye, Callum Keith Rennie Writers: Ira Steven Behr & Robert Hewitt Wolfe, series created by Zak Penn & Michael Karnow Director: Nick Copus Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 10 PM Airdate: July 25, 2011 While not as morally gray as last week’s episode – maybe because this week’s antagonist has caused much more harm with much less cause – “Anger Management” has a lot of strong scenes. Director Nick Copus seems to have picked up on some thematic similarities with 28 DAYS LATER/28 […]Read On »

In “Glimpse,” Jo (Erica Cerra) and Zane (Niall Matter) are grappling with their relationship – with Jo wanting to call things off even though they’ve had six weeks of “last times” – and Jack (Colin Ferguson) and Allison (Salli Richardson-Whitfield) are dealing with more subtle nuances of their romance. Meanwhile, Fargo (Neil […]Read On »

Stars: Eddie McClintock, Joanne Kelly, Saul Rubinek, Genelle Williams, Allison Scagliotti, Aaron Ashmore, Jaime Murray, Ashley Williams Writer: Holly Harold Director: Jeremiah S. Chechik Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: July 25, 2011 As with last week, WAREHOUSE 13 is really shaping up nicely this season. The larger cast of Warehouse employees allows the writers to have a lot more story in one episode, and to show more sides of the characters we already know and love. Which is ironic since this week’s episode is called “Love Sick.” Myka (Joanne Kelly) and Pete (Eddie McClintock) find themselves in bed […]Read On »

Stars: Timothy Hutton, Gina Bellman, Aldis Hodge, Christian Kane, Beth Riesgraf, Mitch Pileggi, Bhanna Peget Writer: Jenn Kao, series created by John Rogers & Chris Downey Director: John Harrison Network: TNT, Sundays @ 9 PM Airdate: July 24, 2011 LEVERAGE’s “The Hot Potato Job” is decent enough – it literally involves a stolen (i.e., hot) potato, so points up front for a good title, as well as smart casting in employing Mitch Pileggi as the big bad of the week. However, given that this is the episode where team leader Nathan (Timothy Hutton) and longtime unconsummated/then consummated-but-pretending-it’s-no-big-deal love interest Sophie […]Read On »

Stars (voices): Billy West, Katey Sagal, John Di Maggio, Tress MacNeille, Maurice LaMarche Writer: Eric Rogers Director: Frank Marino Network: Comedy Central, airs Thursdays @ 10 PM Original Telecast: July 21, 2011 FUTURAMA had a shot at bringing the funny back this week and just didn’t pull the trigger as this week’s episode, “Yo Leela Leela,” featured an easy target but went the PC route instead. The episode concerns Leela (voiced by Katey Sagal) visiting the Cookieville Orphanarium where she was raised. The orphans want a better story told to them than Leela’s life, so she goes off and writes […]Read On »
