*SPOILERS HEREIN* No cliff-hangers to resolve for this week’s episode so we get a monologue by Aidan to start things off. That makes it an intro voice-over for each character now, and I bet it’s something that will continue and maybe even branch out past the three roommates to include Bishop or new vamp Rebecca [...]
*Spoilers Ahead* Surprisingly, the funeral of fallen officer Nate Moretta is not how this episode begins. In fact, it’s only mentioned in passing and the chances that it may not even be viewed next week either are high. Quite the unconventional choice for a cop show – they tend to indulge in the sentimental and [...]
*Here Be Spoilers!* One bite from a werewolf can kill a vampire, and it takes nearly two months to go into full effect. Actually, that’s just how long thit’s been since the last new episode aired of The Vampire Diaries. It seemed so much longer than it really was, because this show is just that good. [...]
Chad Lindberg, who played lovable rogue Ash on the CW’s Supernatural will appear in The Cape on the episode ‘Goggles and Hicks’ to be aired on Monday February 7th. The following day his latest film, a remake of I Spit On Your Grave is released on DVD and Blu-Ray. Lindberg will play the ‘Hicks’ of the episode [...]
*Possible Spoilers* Before we can dive into the resolution for last episode’s cliff-hanger ending, it’s time for a pensive voice-over led flashback montage. A few significant things gleaned from these scenes are: Sally attended her own wake, Josh had a hell of a time trying to control his urges back when the curse first came [...]
* SPOILERS AHEAD. SERIOUSLY.* Near the beginning of the season, those of us who could be called ardent spoiler fiends started to hear there was some massive news about Southland‘s third season. Someone was going to die. No, I don’t mean some random recurring cast member or a [...]
*Spoilers Ahead* In the world of Southland, who you ride with is more than just the person you work a case with or walk a beat with–this person can be your lifeline or they can drag you down with them. This week’s episode again focused on the individual partnerships of the series and the push [...]
*Potential Spoilers* So let’s just get this out of the way in the interest of full disclosure: yes I’m American, and no I haven’t yet seen more than a random episode of the original Being Human. So unfortunately, I won’t be able to do the kind of in-depth dissection of every single line or every [...]
*Spoiler Alert* Issues such as race and class difference have always been a catalyst of major crimes on Southland but to see both start to affect the detectives and officers themselves made this episode a real stand-out. When an inter-gang ‘Romeo and Juliet’ love story causes a bloody Quincenera shooting resulting in the death of [...]
Within the first ten minutes of the new boxing drama Lights Out there has already been graphic violence in addition to a sex scene with partial nudity. Toss in some cable- ready foul language and we’ve hit the FX trifecta. Patrick Leary is first shown beaten to a bloodied pulp in a tight shot that [...]
ABC have announced early season pickups for six of its shows. Castle, Cougar Town, The Middle, Modern Family, Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice will definitely be with us next year. In the 18-49 demo ABC are doing well, with four of the top ten scripted shows belonging to their network. The most popular shows with young [...]
After a tumultuous and brief run on NBC, Southland has hopefully found a home on cable television. I say hopefully because this show is a real underrated gem. The premiere finds a unifying theme in the relationships of all of the different partnerships on the show. From the uniformed patrolmen to the homicide and narcotics [...]
Fresh from a great episode of House and a stint on The Office, Jack Coleman will star in a Hallmark Original Movie about an ageing rocker trying to re-ignite his relationship with his teenage daughter through music. Max Petersen is a hard-working lawyer who finds more time for his daughter Karen after an old band [...]
In an interview with the Metro Heroes creator Tim Kring has admitted that competition from expanding movie budgets and reliance on shock value was what caused the show’s popularity to fall. “The TV screen on your wall has a $200 million movie on one channel and a $2 million episode of a show on the [...]
Mentor High School in Ohio has no glee club, but aside from this it could easily be the real life version of Glee’s McKinley High. There is a football team, a cheerleading squad and a team of ten guidance workers. There is another unfortunate comparison to be drawn with the student body of McKinley – [...]
