“Can I Have a Mother” is brilliantly written and acted. For those who have been saying Macy was miscast in the role of Frank, I say “Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.”

Review: The Walking Dead “Nebraska” (I Still Don’t Get What the Title Means)
“Nebraska” is a well done return to season two of The Walking Dead. I feel like we’re finally moving forward with the story and things will be different from here on out. While there were a few predictable moments, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by those that were unexpected too.

Review: The Vampire Diaries “Dangerous Liaisons” (A Ball, Botched Murder Attempt, and Unrequited Love)
When we learn how dangerous it can be to befriend any member of the original family without some sort of consequence, we understand how aptly titled “Dangerous Liaisons” is. Not only do the vamps look out for themselves, they also have serious hidden agendas that won’t remain hidden for long.

Review: #JustifiedFX “The Devil You Know” (“I’m sensing a disturbance in the force.”)
Ellstin Limehouse is holding money for the Bennett family and we know every Tom, Dickie (Jeremy Davies), and Harry wants it. Of course, now that Dickie is out of jail, thanks to prison guard Ash and male nurse Lance, things go from bad to worse. While I find the whole ‘get the money’ scheme a bit overdone, I will say “The Devil You Know” is quite entertaining and very humorous.

Review: New Girl “The Landlord” (He Loses His Pants and His Damn Mind!)
“The Landlord” brings to mind the craziness we can encounter in the world when we allow ourselves to open up and be nice.

Review: Lost Girl – “Faetal Attraction”
But, Bo isn’t the only one feeling lost. Dyson can’t concentrate at work so he’s referred to a therapist. Poor Fae dude, he’s nursing a broken heart, too. He tells Detective Hale (K.C. Collins), “Therapy is bullshit, human bullshit,” but what he really needs is someone to talk to—a professional.

Review: 2 Broke Girls – “And the Blind Spot”
Sophie may seem like a madam, but she’s not one to mess with. Caroline (Beth Behrs) and Max (Kat Dennings) take her up on her offer to hire them as her cleaning ladies. The girls need extra money so they can build a website to sell their cupcakes.

“Stars Aren’t Born, They’re Made.” Review: Smash – “Pilot”
“Smash” is a smash! There, I said it. You heard it here first. Well, not really. “Smash” has already received fabulous advance reviews from critics and bloggers alike. And deservedly so. It has everything a smash TV series should have—romance; drama; human pathos; comedy; entertainment; sharp and witty dialogue; expert directing, choreography and acting; and the bonus of awesome singing and dancing. This is not your daughter’s Glee.

Interview: A Revealing and Refreshing Conversation with Jasika Nicole of “Fringe”
Last week, we were privy to the Q&A session with Jasika Nicole, “Astrid Farnsworth” on the hugely popular cult favorite, Fringe. Astrid is a kind and compassionate person, who is also a very valuable member of the FBI Fringe team. It was fun to listen to Nicole as she described what it’s like to play Astrid, especially with the very Astrid-centric episode, “Making Angels,” that aired Friday, February 3, 2012 at 9/8c on Fox.

A Pregnancy, A Dead Husband and Sexy Leopard Lingerie. Review: Shameless – “Father’s Day”
“Father’s Day” is another beautifully written, acted and directed episode of Shameless. It’s a perfect balance between light and dark comedy, providing a significant amount of pathos along the way. Just my cup of tea for a Sunday night.

Review: The Vampire Diaries “Bringing Out the Dead” (Hell Hath No Fury Like… No Really. There’s No Fury.)
Unsolved murders, surprising appearances and ass-kicking vamps hold our attention in this week’s episode of The Vampire Diaries. I like that we don’t know what’s going on right away and there’s no way to truly figure things out. The writers are doing an excellent job of leaving us hanging with endings that titillate.

TV News: Bravo Picks Up “Top Chef” for Season 10
As an avid watcher of most TV food shows, I was thrilled to learn Top Chef has been picked up for another season. I love watching the show not only for the great food the cheftestants come up with, but for the drama and constant sniping among these potential superstars.

Review: New Girl “Jess and Julia” (Seriously, Who Doesn’t Like Dessert?)
One thing you can always expect from New Girl is the truth. The guys are always truthful with one another and Jess can’t help but be honest. But when do they learn to keep their mouths shut in order to save someone from being hurt? “Jess and Julia” is a bit on the dramatic side but it has its funny moments.

A gun…or a Tony award, Review: White Collar – “Neighborhood Watch”
In a refreshing, savvy, and oftentimes humorous approach, Mozzie (Willie Garson) and Elle (Tiffani Thiessen) come to the forefront of the storytelling when some surveillance equipment left at the Burke home becomes the catalyst for a caper, and for Peter (Tim DeKay) to recognize that his wife is dealing with her kidnapping a bit differently than he expected.

Review: #JustifiedFX “Harlan Roulette” (“this ain’t Russian Roulette, it’s Harlan Roulette”)
The new season of Justified seems a bit more cutthroat and treacherous, not to mention bloody. “Harlan Roulette” spares no expense on any of it. While Ava (Joelle Carter) visits Ellstin Limehouse (Mykelti Williamson) to ask if he’ll meet with Boyd (Walton Goggins) to discuss relinquishing the money he’s holding for Dickie Bennett (Jeremy Davies); Raylan (Timothy Olyphant) must contend with some ruthless Oxy dealers.

Review: Alcatraz – Season 1, Episode 4, “Cal Sweeney” – “A Protégé, the Alteration of Memories, and Safety Deposit Boxes.”
Is it possible to remove deviant and criminal behavior by implanting soothing memories in a criminal’s mind?
Cal Sweeney (Eric Johnson), an Alcatraz convict who robbed 20 banks in the 50s, has made his way to present day San Francisco where he is again robbing banks. Will Rebecca (Sarah Jones) and Doc (Jorge Garcia) figure out why he’s only going after safety deposit boxes this time around? What does this have to do with the past and…memories?

Kenzi in Pink! Review: Lost Girl – “Oh Kappa My Kappa”
But both of them are Faes, with Dyson firmly on the Light Fae side, and Bo somewhere in the middle, still undecided if she wants to go Light or Dark. I see why the Faes want her to choose sides, and her reluctance to choose makes her “dangerous.” How can they trust her otherwise?
