Dementia, A Break-Up, and a Hospital Accident. Review: Nurse Jackie – “Day of the Iguana”
Zoey (Merritt Wever) breaks up with Lenny (Lenny Jacobson) and Jackie (Edie Falco) prepares for her upcoming custody battle. Dr. Cruz (Bobby Cannavale) has an anxiety attack and Gloria (Anna Deavere Smith) revisits her past with a former All Saints employee. “Day of the Iguana” is one of Nurse Jackie’s better episodes this season. It has a wonderful mix of laughter and sadness and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Living in a small town has its perks but it can also be a nightmare for a well-known sheriff trying to run for state senate.

A Predictable Conclusion. Review: Smash Season Finale – “Bombshell”
To say I’m disappointed with the season finale of Smash would be putting it mildly, especially after “Previews” showed us what great acting and dialogue this show is capable of producing. “Bombshell” does no such thing. It is filled with predictability and yawn-inducing moments.

Comrades Up in Arms. Review: Lost Girl – “BrotherFae of the Wolves”
The Mongolian Death Worm is an elderly Light Fae named Velma (Jayne Eastwood), whose unnatural attachment to her TV can become deadly. Take away her TV and you have complete control of her. This seems to be an indictment of TV viewers; our society has become overly attached to electronic devices, practically rendering us technology-addicted zombies. Would we act as Velma does if these things were taken away from us?

Seinfeld This Is Not… Review: Veep “Chung”
This is only the fourth episode of Veep and we’re already at the “meh” stage. I just don’t get it. The acting seems forced, the lines are delivered mechanically, the jokes aren’t funny and I found my thoughts wandering.

Review: The Borgias “Day of Ashes”
“Day of Ashes” sets up what is to come – a day of reckoning, but for whom? The Pope (Jeremy Irons) keeps his word to atone for his sins in light of the disaster caused by lightning, which resulted in numerous casualties and and a few fatalities. But, giving sacrament to the people hardly seems penance enough for the type of sins the Pope has committed.

Nipple Sucking, Procreation, and Movies – Review: The Big C “Life Rights”
Don’t let the title mislead you—“Life Rights” is not what you expect. It is delightfully entertaining and full of unabashed humor with an ample dose of sarcasm and a spoonful of disdain thrown in for good measure. Sean gets more than he bargained for when he catches Adam and his girlfriend Jesse in a compromising position.
