Talk About A Hot Dream… Review: The Vampire Diaries – “Pictures of You” 1

I’m sorry to say “Pictures of You” didn’t do it for me this week and I don’t expect things to get better anytime soon. What the hell happened to the TVD awesomeness of last season?

Let the Backstabbing Begin! Review: Da Vinci’s Demons – “The Hanged Man” 2

Da Vinci’s Demons is definitely not for someone who just wants an hour of mindless television entertainment. You have to pay attention, keep track of all the players, and take notes to stay vested in the show.

Dun, dun, dun, duh... Review: The Vampire Diaries - "American Gothic" 7

While not the most engaging hour of television, “American Gothic” shows us just how crafty Katharine can be. I like the idea that a lone woman can wreak so much havoc in a world dominated by men.

I can’t say I loved “Prey.” In fact, I don’t think it did anything but reassure me that the Governor is beyond insane. Add in his being a vengeful sociopath and you’ve really got trouble.

Bait and Switch… Review: The Walking Dead - “Arrow on the Doorpost” 19

I’m curious to know how much time has passed from last week’s phenomenal episode, “Clear,” to this week’s mediocre “Arrow on the Doorpost.” I noticed a few things that couldn’t have transpired in the course of a day, but then I realized we don’t always get a glimpse of every single thing that happens in The Walking Dead universe either.

You Cannot Survive Alone... Review: The Walking Dead - "Clear" 24

The first few episodes of TWD didn’t involve a lot of interaction with groups. “Clear” is centralized on just a few things and that focus creates something beautiful.
