Although the first half of the show is hilarious, the second half merely holds its own. I don’t want to be too picky so I’m just gonna say, we can do better next week!

Review: #JustifiedFX “Watching The Detectives” (“ice-cold, remorseless, bottle blonde, sh*t bag killer”)
Raylan – a dirty cop? Who would believe such a thing? Apparently Winona is having some doubts. Limehouse wants to “back the winning side” meaning he’s in Quarles’ corner – things are really taking an interesting turn. And Duffy wants to break Raylan over a step ladder and ride him like a teaser pony! I never expected those words to fall from his lips.

An Arrest, Some Sex and a Stolen Kiss. Review: #Smash – “Let’s Be Bad” @NBCSmash
You may notice this review is slightly less enthusiastic than my previous ones. That’s because the writing is becoming a little too predictable and the show is beginning to move a little too slowly for my taste. I want to yell at Derek and say, “Get a move on, already! Just tell Ivy she’s out and Karen’s in!” What do you all think?

Go Into the Light, Peg. Review: Shameless – “Parenthood” @SHO_Kareem @SHO_Shameless
Sometimes, Shameless pulls some real surprises, and “Parenthood” does a good job of it. Not only does Sheila (Joan Cusack) have a hand in Peg’s (Louise Fletcher) death, but Lip (Jeremy Allen White) leaves home when Fiona (Emily Rossum) tells him it’s “school or leave.” She and Lip had made a pact to finish high school, but he gets expelled because of his antics. Mickey Milkovich (Noel Fisher) wants to kill Frank (William H. Macy) after Frank catches Ian (Cameron Monaghan) and Mickey doing the nasty in the Kash and Grab; and Steve/Jimmy (Justin Chatwin) will try anything to get Fiona back.

Interview: Grimm’s David Giuntoli and Sasha Roiz Talk ‘Grimmstinks’ and ‘Renardisms’ @NBCGrimm
When I found out a conference call with Grimm’s David Giuntoli and Sasha Roiz was scheduled, I immediately put myself on the list of participants. Grimm has become one of my favorite shows this season. Giuntoli and Roiz have a wonderful camaraderie, which comes through loud and clear in this interview. In my opinion, each is a terrific actor and both have a wonderful sense of humor. So, in order for you to understand what ‘Grimmstinks’ and ‘Renardisms’ are, and to find out what’s in store for everyone in the second half of the season, read on.

Review: #JustifedFX “The Man Behind The Curtain” (We ain’t in Kansas, Dorothy and the Wizard sends a Weasel)
What I enjoy most about “The Man Behind The Curtain” is we don’t really get to see the real man behind the curtain. We meet Sammy, the son of the man who calls the shots from Detroit who, in turn, controls Quarles. We also get a glimpse of how Quarles is treated while in Detroit yet, he’s the “swinging dick” (so to speak) in Harlan because he’s the city-slicker in the fancy suits. I love the multifaceted puzzle we are presented with: Arlo calling after his “late wife” up in Noble’s Hollar; Boyd banking with Limehouse for firsthand information; Raylan sleeping in a rented room above a local dive bar (what the…); and Quarles taking orders from his weasel step-brother.

Awake follows Britten’s life after he finds himself living in two different realities following a car crash: one where his teen son, Rex (Dylan Minnette, Saving Grace), dies in the crash and his wife, Hannah (Laura Allen, Terriers) survives; and the other where Hannah dies, leaving Michael and Rex to pick up the pieces.

A Degas Painting, A Blind Date, and a Birthday Party. Review: Smash – “The Cost of Art”
Rehearsals for “Marilyn: The Musical” get underway; Eileen (Angelica Huston) finds a way to finance the show; and Karen (Katherine McPhee) receives help from an unusual source. The title, “The Cost of Art,” seems to have quite a few meanings relative to the episode—the literal cost of the painting Eileen has to sell, the emotional toll selling the painting to finance the musical takes, and the lengths to which the actors, director and producer will go to make a musical great.

Movie: BERNIE – starring Jack Black (Dark comedy based on true story of Asst. Funeral Director in Texas)
Based on a true story: In the tiny, rural town of Carthage, TX, assistant funeral director Bernie Tiede was one of the town’s most beloved residents. He taught Sunday school, sang in the church choir and was always willing to lend a helping hand. Everyone loved and appreciated Bernie, so it came as no surprise when he befriended Marjorie Nugent, an affluent widow who was as well known for her sour attitude as her fortune. The people of Carthage were shocked when it was reported that Marjorie Nugent had been dead for some time, and Bernie Tiede was being charged with the murder.
