<i>Vikings</i> – “To the Gates” Top Five Moments. The Fury of a Patient Man. 1

Ever since the premiere of season three of Vikings, the show’s promos have made it clear we should expect the Northmen to raid Paris before the season finale. Personally, I’ve hardly been able to contain my anticipation for what series creator/writer Michael Hirst might have in store for us, especially since I love it when the Vikings head to new territories. But with all the ongoing buzz about Vikings, will the Paris raid turn out to be an epic moment for Ragnar (Travis Fimmel) and the Northmen, or will it be a huge bust?

Video: Interviews – The CW’s <i>The Messengers</i> Wonder Con 2015 2

After watching the screener of the series premiere of #TheMessengers, I was elated to get into the press room to talk with some of the cast of The CW’s new show. The first episode, “Awakening,” introduces us to many of the characters who were “chosen” to be messengers. “Awakening” doesn’t actually confirm or deny these are messengers of God, but when you see the characters’ reflections, they are all angelically winged.

<i>The Americans</i> – “One Day in the Life of Anton Baklanov” Retrospective. Difficult Times Ahead 8

“One Day in the Life of Anton Baklanov” is another standalone episode that does a good job of handling the raw emotions of the three Jennings—Philip, Elizabeth, and Paige, as well as dealing with all the subplots in this season of The Americans. I particularly enjoyed the way director Andrew Bernstein uses the headlights from Elizabeth’s car to cast light on her face in the dark garage as she contemplates how to handle the mess with Paige going forward.

Justified – “Collateral” Review. The Legend of Boyd Crowder Begins. 10

As penultimate episodes go, especially in a final season, “Collateral” leaves much to be desired. While there are some tense moments, what transpires in “Collateral” sets things up for what should be an explosive series finale. As Raylan (Timothy Olyphant) continues his search for Ava (Joelle Carter), sans his badge, Boyd (Walton Goggins) also pursues his former fiancé. The convergence of two enemies – Raylan and Boyd – happens on a hillside in the dead of night and much is left to chance as each tries to outwit the other. Meanwhile, Avery Markham (Sam Elliott) pays his respects to his dearly departed Katherine (Mary Steenburgen), promising to avenge her death.
