In tonight’s episode “The Thing You Love Most”, as Emma Swan (Jennifer Morrison) and Regina (Lana Parilla) go head to […]Read On »

Luckily, the show itself is called GRIMM and thankfully it’s anything but. GRIMM is from ANGEL co-creator […]Read On »

Good news – Howard Gordon & Alex Ganza, both 24 veterans, are at the helm here, […]Read On »

Stars: Jane Levy, Jeremy Sisto, Cheryl Hines, Carly Chaikin, Alan Tudyk, Allie Grant Writer: Emily Kapnek Director: Michael Fresco Network: ABC, Wednesdays @ 8:30 PM Original Telecast: September 28, 2011 If you’ve read books aimed at teens and tweens (the main characters are teenagers, but the readers are sometimes a little younger), you know the tone of SUBURGATORY – wry and snarky but not mean-spirited, watching peers in a new territory as though they’re aliens and viewing adults as though they are from another dimension altogether. In SUBURGATORY’s pilot, our narrator, fifteen-year-old Tessa Altman (Jane Levy), is uprooted from her […]Read On »

Stars: Texas Battle, Bryan Callen, Bryce Johnson, Caity Lotz, Tania Raymonde, Charlie Sanders Writers: Matt Lawton based on DEATH VALLEY conceived by Spider One, developed by Eric Weinberg and created by Curtis Gwinn Director: Drew Daywalt Network: MTV, airs Monday nights Original Telecast: September 26, 2011 I think DEATH VALLEY has finally found itself. It’s taken a couple of weeks, but “Zombie Fights” is a step in the right direction. It’s still not laugh out loud funny, but the mixture of funny, serious and super-sized gore is starting to gel. It’s also revealing that this first season has more of […]Read On »

BREAKING IN concerns Contra Security, a firm that is hired to test various security systems by performing the title action. Created and executive-produced by Adam F. Goldberg and Seth Gordon, the new Wednesday night half-hour comedy on Fox features a troupe of deft comedic young actors as the Contra employees. Christian Slater plays their somewhat mysterious and prankish boss, Oz, who likes to surround himself with eclectic objects – for instance, Captain Kirk’s command chair from the bridge of the Enterprise. Slater has starred in two other TV series, NBC’s MY OWN WORST ENEMY and ABC’s THE FORGOTTEN, but BREAKING […]Read On »

Stars: Christian Slater, Bret Harrison, Odette Annable, Alphonso McAuley Writer: Adam F. Goldberg Director: Seth Gordon Network: Fox, airs Wednesday nights Original Telecast: April 6, 2011 Bret Harrison has been a star in need of an excellent vehicle for his everyman charms and comedic timing. While he was great in the two-season REAPER cult series, it didn’t propel him the way it should have. Throw in a strange stint on the second season of V that was trying to make him the comic relief in a show that was in more need of action, drama and actual sci-fi than comedy, […]Read On »
