Somehow Ryan gets saddled into taking Wilfred to the vet when Jenna complains about Wilfred’s horrible doggie breath. Things take a dark turn when Wilfred realizes Ryan lied about them going to the movies when they arrive at AMC (Animal Medical Center, not the theatre chain). By the way, Wilfred’s strange obsession with Damon is hysterical! Wilfrism – “Joy farts – they are amazing.”

“Franklin & Bash” has to be one of the funniest series I’ve seen in a while. I mean, office chair curling? Yep, that’s how “You Can’t Take it With You” starts and the laughs never stop, despite the seriousness that goes on between Jared (Breckin Meyer) and his father, Leonard (guest star Beau Bridges).

In the third season of this intriguing procedural, the tagline “choose a side” has never been more appropriate. After the first season of getting to know as much about the characters’ backgrounds as The Powers That Be allowed, season two settled a bit into the ‘buddy’ formula. We got comfortable with Neal Caffrey being a reformed con artist who works with the FBI in an unlikely but appealing partnership with one of their best agents. But the explosive second-season ender tilted our axis and we’ve entered this season with a new game board.

I’m still not sure I look forward to The Glee Project every week, but I can say I am invested in the “characters.” This week’s episode moved me deeply, twice, something I think is particularly appropriate in an episode entitled “Vulnerability.”

“Bring it on!” is the mantra for The Big C’s season two campaign and they certainly bring something. Strange hallucinations and a headache that just won’t go away seem to plague Cathy (Laura Linney) throughout the season two premiere, “Losing Patients.” I was so excited for the premiere and I wasn’t disappointed at all! By the end of the first episode, I realized I had a smile etched on my face, stretching from ear to ear.

“The Long Way Down Job” gives me everything I want from a season premiere. It picks up from last season without relying too heavily on it, and delivers a classic, well-executed con – by both the “team” and the writers. And it delivers some great character development.

With all the drama of the first six episodes, it’s about time we have a little fun. “Teresa’s Got a Gun” is a much lighter, funnier episode of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey,” especially when the Giudices, Manzos, and Lauritas descend upon the Giudice cabin in the Catskills. But I’m getting ahead of myself…

Waiting sucks. And that’s not the only thing. We’ve already had the opportunity to glimpse the first eight minutes of the premiere episode of True Blood and they aren’t very impressive. They do impress something upon me but I prefer to keep this review profanity free.

Written by Liz Kruger and Craig Shapiro, and directed by Kevin Dowling, “Necessary Roughness” is filled with wry sarcasm, a decent amount of humor in contrast to the serious dramatic elements, sharp and witty dialogue, and is beautifully acted by all involved. USA has definitely scored a touchdown with another character-driven series, which so perfectly fits its brand.

We already know the aliens arrived in their ships with seemingly advanced weaponry and artillery so why are they taking teenagers, harnessing them to collect scrap metal? Col. Porter brings some good news along with his chief medical advisor Dr. Michael Harris (guest star Steven Weber) who has a new method for removing the spinal harnesses. Meanwhile, Tom captures a live Skitter as his POW.

A Game of Thrones is the first in the series and it is a great introduction into such a wonderful world of kings, lords, and creatures. If you’ve watched the series on HBO, you’ll pretty much have an idea of what the book contains. Of course, the text is more detailed and those details are superb.

It should be illegal to have this much fun in one television series. These boys really know how to mix work with play. Plus, I can’t express enough how sharp and witty the dialogue is in this show.

On a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon, I attended two of the LA Film Festival’s Coffee Talk Panels – Actors Panel moderated by actress Rachael E. Harris (The Hangover) and guests were actors Derek Luke, Jason Ritter, and actress Loretta Devine. And Screenwriter panel moderated by writer Josh Olson (A History of Violence) and guests were Dustin Lance Black, Diablo Cody, and Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.

What do you get when you combine Elijah Wood, Jason Gann, FX Network, and a TV-MA rating? A fantastically refreshing (and realistic) dark comedy sure to tickle your smart-ass funny bone to death! While everyone sees Wilfred as a lovable pet, Ryan sees a perverted, pot-smoking, nicotine infused, vulgar man with an Aussie accent in a dog suit.

“Suits” grabbed me from the opening scene and kept me interested and amused throughout the entire hour. I thoroughly enjoyed the show. The writing is sharp and witty and the characters perfectly acted. While the show has a serious undertone to it, it’s lighthearted enough to make this a very pleasant and enjoyable show, fitting perfectly into USA’s network of characters.

REVIEW: The Glee Project: “Theatricality” Rating: Airdate: June 19, 2011, 9/8c on Oxygen The kids on The Glee Project really take this week’s assignment of “Theatricality” to heart as the episode is all about the drama.

With “The Good Parts” being the unknown series finale, it is a bittersweet moment for me. Over the last three seasons, we’ve watched Kate (Brie Larson) and Marshall (Keir Gilchrist) grow and mature, and Max (John Corbett) continuously standing by his wife while seemingly hanging by a thread. Obviously Max and Tara returning home instead of going to the mental facility is a bit of a shock, but they squelch any notion that Tara isn’t going to get help when they announce they are headed to Boston and that Bryce is…dead.

As season finales go, “Deaf Blind Tumor Pee-Test” is rather lackluster — except for Kevin’s reveal. Season three was pretty good overall, so I’m disappointed with this finale. I think the writers missed their mark with this episode. If you ask me, they took the easy way out. Thankfully, they have another season in which to redeem themselves.

Linden is too attached to this case. We already know that. It’s one reason I’m positive she won’t be getting married any time soon. But do we really want her to?

Green Lantern is an exhilarating, intense, exuberant theatrical experience I won’t soon forget! The 3D imagery is fantastic! Reynolds captures the character of Hal Jordan, an arrogant and egotistical test pilot, with such charisma, engaging the audience with his version of the famed superhero. Reynolds’ off-beat humor is sprinkled lightly throughout the film but never overpowering it.
