Advance Review: New Girl, S1, E1 – “Pilot” (Three Men and a Hilarious Little Lady)

Advance Review: New Girl, S1, E1 - "Pilot" (Three Men and a Hilarious Little Lady) 1

If you’ve seen the previews for the pilot episode of New Girl, you know what to expect. But I should stress the show is funnier than the few scenes glimpsed over the past month building up the hype for the series premiere. It’s worth your time and you will laugh out loud.

Review: #WilfredFX , Season 1 Finale - Ep. 13 "Identity" (The Archeologist and the Dog...WTF!) 2

Damn you, Wilfred. I love you but I want to kick you in nuts right now. But, you know I’ll bring you an ice pack and a blunt to make up for it later. “Identity” has a purpose – but what we get is more questions and lingering doubts about Ryan’s sanity and Wilfred’s ambiguous existence. And why is Wilfred typing out his will?

Review: Rescue Me, S7, E9 (Series Finale) – “Ashes” (Everything Old is New Again)

Review: Rescue Me, S7, E9 (Series Finale) - "Ashes" (Everything Old is New Again) 3

I wish I had more than six stars to give this series finale because simply put, “Ashes” knocks it way out of the park. There is the perfect amount of comedy mixed in with the drama and human pathos as everyone’s story is wrapped up to perfection.

Advance Review: @Syfy #ParanormalWitness , Season 1 Premiere “Emily the Imaginary Friend” and “Lost Girl”

Advance Review: @Syfy #ParanormalWitness , Season 1 Premiere "Emily the Imaginary Friend" and "Lost Girl" 4

I’m not easily spooked but I’ll be damned if I didn’t leave the light on and stay seated in bed rather than remain in my usual lounging position for watching TV. Was I freaked out? Um, yeah! I usually leave the TV on with any paranormal show and fall asleep without any issues but after watching “Emily the Imaginary Friend” and “Lost Girl,” it’s safe to say I was more than a bit hesitant to turn off the lights. I actually contemplated putting in an animated movie to settle my nerves.

Review: The Glades, S2, E13 (Season Finale) – “Breakout”

Review: The Glades, S2, E13 (Season Finale) - "Breakout" 5

There are some finales that just get it right: enough of an open end to keep you wanting more, but not so much of a cliffhanger that you’re cursing the hiatus for weeks on end. “Breakout” is just that. And it blows the formulaic approach of The Glades out of the swamp. The sophomore season started shaky but picked up speed and found its stride mid-way through, ending strong.

I can’t believe the summer is over and yet another finale is coming our way. I’m sure it will be fantastic, as only The Closer can be.

Advance Review: Sons of Anarchy, Season 4 Premiere, Ep. 401 “Out” (Sex, Lies, and Retaliation)

Advance Review: Sons of Anarchy, Season 4 Premiere, Ep. 401 "Out" (Sex, Lies, and Retaliation) 8

After waiting nine months for the highly anticipated fourth season of this testosterone fueled series, I’ll be honest – I feel a little jipped. There are some great moments in “Out,” but overall the slow-paced episode feels very subdued and full of details to the point of overkill. What I love about Sons of Anarchy is the allure of mystery and dark secrets – something to riddle out, but “Out” is a bit too informative; and actually, it’s kind of boring in places. But, I’m a true fan of SOA and will not jump ship.

Review: True Blood, S7, E47 – “Soul of Fire”

Review: True Blood, S7, E47 - "Soul of Fire" 10

The ending of “Soul of Fire” is unexpected and I like that. I must say I was caught off guard and didn’t think things would go the way they did. I do see quite a few side stories making themselves known: the shifter/Were alliance, the appearance of more Fae, and the dreaded love triangle (the who-loves-Sookie-more-showdown continues).

How do you grasp an event as enormous as September 11? At the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History, you start small: A briefcase, a Blackberry, a victim’s sweatshirt, and a hero’s nametag. Simple objects that tell personal stories, recounted in the donors’ own words.

Review: #Haven , Season 2, Ep. 8 “Friend or Faux” (A whole new meaning to “evil twin.”)

Review: #Haven , Season 2, Ep. 8 "Friend or Faux" (A whole new meaning to "evil twin.") 12

Haven continues to impress me with its unnerving approach to introducing a new “troubled” person each week. Of course, basing the series on “The Colorado Kid,” written by the master of horror himself, Stephen King, it’s no wonder some of these cases give me the chills. I really love this show! It’s absolutely fascinating to watch the “troubled” cases and try to figure out how the afflictions cause such mayhem. If you’re unfamiliar with the series or book, I will say if you haven’t seen many episodes, you are able to watch and still be captivated; however, there will be bits that will need some further explanations – like the mystery of Audrey’s (Emily Rose) background and who she really is.

Review: #WilfredFX , Season 1, Ep. 12 "Sacrifice" (Italian beauty, pot candy, and shots of toilet water) 13

“Sacrifice” opens on a gorgeous sunny day at the beach as Ryan, who is attempting to read a book, is severely distracted by a beautiful Italian woman, Cinzia (Gabriella Pession). She is the kind of woman who can help Ryan forget about his neighbor Jenna. However, with Wilfred doing an excellent job of cock-blocking, Ryan’s really having to rethink his obligations.

Book Review: “The Girls’ Guide to Hunting and Fishing” by Melissa Bank

Book Review: "The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing" by Melissa Bank 14

Bank has been called a Chic Lit author, but I don’t believe that’s true. Yes, her main character is female and we see the world through her eyes, but does that make it a book only for women? No.

"Boardwalk Empire" Returns to HBO Sunday, September 25th 16

Ahh, Atlantic City in the 1920s. Booze flowed freely, albeit illegally, and Nucky Thompson ruled his universe, or so he thought. Things are about to get a whole lot hotter for our favorite politician/gangster as friends, mobsters and family alike challenge Nucky on many fronts. Boardwalk Empire is back for a second exciting season beginning Sunday, September 25th at 9:00 pm ET/PT only on HBO.

Review: Rescue Me, S7, E8 – “Vows”

Review: Rescue Me, S7, E8 - "Vows" 17

As the penultimate episode of Rescue Me, “Vows” hits its mark, and then some. I don’t remember when I laughed at an episode of any show as much as I laughed throughout “Vows.” I hope you’re not easily offended by politically incorrect jokes—especially Mexican ones—because if you are, tune out now. Something tells me though, if you’re a fan of Rescue Me, you won’t. But, while the jokes abound, the episode leaves me crying.

Review: The Big C, Season 2, Ep. 10 "How Do You Feel?" (Baby Wipes, Boobs, and Cutting - Yep, I'm Fine) 18

Cathy (Laura Linney) is worried about Lee’s (Hugh Dancy) health but helps him with a few things on his bucket list by getting him a bottle of wine and letting him cop a feel of her bare breasts. What are “mole-mates” for? And Sean (John Hickey) is not coping well with losing baby Cathy – he’s off his meds which makes him more vulnerable. Poppy (Parker Posey) and Adam (Gabriel Basso) continue to hang out but it’s a little weird when she takes him to her high school 1990 Class Reunion.

Review: The Closer, S7, E8 - "Death Warrant" 20

Overall, I enjoyed “Death Warrant” but felt it was a bit of a transition episode. It clearly displayed Pellegrino’s comedic range while showcasing the smooth bravado he portrayed as Jacob on Lost.

Review: 28th Annual MTV Video Music Awards (Unique Outfits, Awkward Moments, Stellar Performances, and DTF?) 21

This year’s VMAs was a convoluted and irksome display of chaos heavily seasoned with bad ad-libs, terrible cue-card reading, and some intensely awkward moments that made me cringe and want to change the channel to avoid further discomfort. The whole night wasn’t lost, though. There were some tremendously entertaining performances by the ever graceful and talented Adele, who sang “Someone Like You,” and Beyonće belted out an inspired and soulful rendition of her song “Love on Top.”

Review: The Glades, S2, E12 – “Shine”

Review: The Glades, S2, E12 - "Shine" 22

Apparently the adage ‘you learn something new every day’ is quite true for Detective Jim Longworth (Matt Passmore). In “Shine,” the former Chicago lawman learns that the practice of distilling and selling moonshine is not only an old Florida tradition, but is still a thriving (legal) business in the Everglades. The question is: are moonshine bootleggers responsible for murder, or are they just marketing 120 proof liquor?
