Review: The Playboy Club, S1, E1 - "Pilot" (Bunnies, Murder and the Mob) 1

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. But despite what people have been saying, the only thing I found similar to AMC’s hit series Mad Men is the era of the 1960s. And that’s only because Hugh Hefner founded The Playboy Club in early 1960—if the writers/creators of The Playboy Club wanted to mimic Mad Men, we would be watching an entirely different show. I’ll admit, I had a good time watching The Playboy Club. It was fun, entertaining, intriguing and took me back to my early 20s, especially the underwear the Bunnies are sporting.

Recap/Review: The Real Housewives of New Jersey, S3, E17 - "Going to the Punta!" (Bikinis, Gorgeous Villas, Sex and a Fight: What Else Would You Expect?) 3

By comparison, “Get to the Punta!” is a rather tame episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey—it doesn’t have the usual drama. Instead, there are a lot of fun times and funny happenings. That is, until Teresa and Kathy go at it on the beach.

Review: #Haven , Season 2, Ep. 210 "Who, What, Where, Wendigo?" (Cannibals? Who's for dinner?) 4

There’s a serial killer on the loose and a teenage boy, Rory (Scott Beaudin), has gone missing. Is Rory the next victim or is he part of something more menacing? Are there cannibals in Haven? “Wendigo…it’s a human spirit, but stronger, faster; tracks prey like a lion; survives on human flesh.”

If you haven’t seen the series premiere of Homeland yet, you’ve probably been in a retreat somewhere with no access to the internet, hiding under a rock, or vacationing in some foreign country. On the off chance you’re one of those people, I’m happy to provide it for you here. As I said in my Advance Review of the premiere, “Homeland has the same great execution, sharp writing, and brilliant acting as [Sleeper Cell].” But who am I to say? You be the judge, and let me know what you think.

It was such a pleasure to speak to Rob McIlhenny (“Mac”), Glenn Howerton (“Dennis”), and Charlie Day (“Charlie”). Each was nicer than the next. They couldn’t have been more accommodating if they tried. I have already posted the interviews with Glenn Howerton and Charlie Day, and now since the season premiere has aired, I’m able to post my interview with Rob McIlhenny. I was under an embargo not to show any pictures or videos of Rob prior to the start of the season due to his weight gain.

Unfortunately, I was called away at the last minute *pout*. Nonetheless, I’m happy to provide the fans of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia with the transcript of that call.

Review: The Big C, Season 2, Ep. 11 "Fight or Flight" (Grab your floaties!) 14

Cannoli never sounded so…erotic. Meow! Temperatures may be dropping in Minneapolis but libidos are heating up! From the homeless guy using the expensive gloves Cathy donates to warm up more than his hands to Dr. Atticus Sherman (guest star Alan Alda) hungrily munching on his wife Gia’s (guest star Laura Benanti) cannoli, “Fight or Flight” definitely channels some strong sexual overtones…I wonder if the writer was going through a dry spell? (LOL!)

While not a heavy duty cliffhanger, the ending of “Fresh Pursuit” leaves me thinking Brenda is in more trouble than she’s ever been. I don’t know what tricks Gavin will have up his sleeve to get her out of this one.

I expected more from True Blood because that’s what I got before—great entertainment, funny one-liners and top of the line plots that actually led somewhere. So, this is me shaking my head at season four asking, “Now why couldn’t the entire season have been like the finale?”

Book Review: "The Observations" by Jane Harris 20

“The Observations” is Bessy’s account of her life, written in her own words. You see the change in Bessy through each passing chapter, which ends up being a few years—the length of time it has taken her to write everything down. Her speech in the beginning is almost incomprehensible, sloppy and surprisingly hilarious.

A fun race, a happy get-together, and a heartbreaking birthday party. No wonder this episode is entitled “Singing in the Pain.” It reminds me of Rodney King’s infamous question, “Can’t we all just get along?”

Review: #Haven , Season 2, Ep. 209 "Lockdown" (An outbreak or just another case of the 'troubles?') 23

Could Haven be plagued with an outbreak or is this just another case of the “troubles?” My money is on the latter and with the heavy stench of betrayal in the air, the “troubled” are going to be in big…trouble. “Your kind won’t win.” An ominous threat spewing from Merrill’s blood-drenched lips; it’s moments like these that make Haven such a darkly decadent treat.

The gang is back and is as irreverent as ever. The season seven premiere starts off with Dee (Kaitlin Olson) and Charlie (Charlie Day) explaining to Dennis (Glenn Howerton) why they need a dog-fighting pitbull to guard the bar. Then there’s a mention of Tiger Woods (in relation to his extracurricular activities), and a gay slur which Dee immediately apologizes for. They may be a bit behind the times, but it’s this controversial yet comedic writing that makes Sunny as beloved as it is.
