Review: United States of Tara, Season 3 Finale/Series Finale Ep 312 “The Good Parts”

Review: United States of Tara, Season 3 Finale/Series Finale Ep 312 "The Good Parts" 4

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.

Review: Season Finale of Nurse Jackie, S3, E12 – “Deaf Blind Tumor Pee-Test”

Review: Season Finale of Nurse Jackie, S3, E12 - "Deaf Blind Tumor Pee-Test" 6

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.

Review: The Killing, S1, E13 – “Orpheus Descending”

Review: The Killing, S1, E13 - "Orpheus Descending" 7

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?

Movie Review: Green Lantern…He’s My New Hero!

Movie Review: Green Lantern...He's My New Hero! 8

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.

Advance Review: TNT’s New Sci-Fi Drama “Falling Skies” Season Premiere

Advance Review: TNT's New Sci-Fi Drama "Falling Skies" Season Premiere 10

I will tell you this show is worth watching. It’s compelling, thought-provoking, gripping, action-packed, and just good drama from the people who know drama. The writing is superb. Award winning executive producer Steven Spielberg, show creator/executive producer/writer Robert Rodat, and executive producer/writer Graham Yost (also creator/executive producer of FX’s hit drama “Justified”) give us a powerful new series I think will become the next TV addiction.

Review: Franklin & Bash, S1, E3 – “Jennifer of Troy”

Review: Franklin & Bash, S1, E3 - "Jennifer of Troy" 11

“Franklin & Bash” isn’t really about the cases. None of them are serious; instead, they deal with wacky, off-the-wall, fun topics. More, it’s all about best buds: the kind who live together, hunt girls together and practice law together. This week, however, is a little different as the guys try to win a case with more serious undertones that revolves around the definition of beauty. Jennifer Putnam (Jillian Bell) is a woman who knows she’s beautiful; so beautiful, in fact, she believes she was fired for it.

Review: United States of Tara, Season 3, Ep 311 “Crunchy Ice”

Review: United States of Tara, Season 3, Ep 311 "Crunchy Ice" 12

“Crunchy Ice” is one of my favorite episodes this season. Tara (Toni Collette) is still MIA but some of the alters– Buck, T, and Alice – make brief appearances before Bryce kills them off. Grandma Sandy points out the oddities of his wife’s behavior to Max, at the museum, “Your wife is humping that sculpture.” And I’m not sure how Bryce uses the urinal in the men’s room. A very confused Neil asks, “So, does your wife have a d*ck now?”

Review: Nurse Jackie, S3, E11 – “Batting Practice”

Review: Nurse Jackie, S3, E11 - "Batting Practice" 16

As Grace (Ruby Jerins) gives Fiona (Mackenzie Aladjem) vitamins at the breakfast table, Jackie gazes longingly at the pills, wishing it were Roxy and she was the one taking them. Something tells me Jackie’s not going to be sober for much longer.

Recap/Review: The Real Housewives of New Jersey, S3, E5 – “Stick It”

Recap/Review: The Real Housewives of New Jersey, S3, E5 - "Stick It" 17

As reality episodes go, this one is on the tame side. We learn Melissa longs to become a singer and loving husband that he is, Joey G decides to support her in the pursuit of her dream. But someone really should tell Melissa the correct words to “Amazing Grace.” Of course, using the word “wench” instead of “wretch” really does suit her, don’t you think? Meow…

Review: The Killing, S1, E12 – “Beau Soleil”

Review: The Killing, S1, E12 - "Beau Soleil" 18

I’ve got a really bad feeling. “Beau Soleil” is not only the title of the episode, but the name of an escort service Terry is involved with.

Review: Franklin & Bash, S1, E2 – “She Came Upstairs to Kill Me”

Review: Franklin & Bash, S1, E2 - "She Came Upstairs to Kill Me" 19

While “Franklin & Bash” bills itself as a legal series, it can’t be considered in the same genre as “The Good Wife.” To me, it’s more like Lifetime’s “Drop Dead Diva.” It doesn’t take itself too seriously, which is what makes it so much fun to watch.

Review: United States of Tara, Season 3, Ep 310 “Train Wreck”

Review: United States of Tara, Season 3, Ep 310 "Train Wreck" 20

The darkly humorous side to all this is how the writers make light of grim situations. When Tara tells Max (John Corbett) about her new alter, he understandably wigs out but still tries to poke fun. “Who is she? Good/bad alter? Loves giving back massages and knows the stock market? No? No, we’re never gonna have one of those, are we?” But Max really loses it after finding out Bryce nearly killed Hattaras, resulting in the good doc’s decision to forego further contact with Tara.

Recap/Review: The Real Housewives of New Jersey, S3, E4 - "Gobblefellas" 21

Who’s ready for Thanksgiving? I sure am, after seeing the feasts put out at Melissa and Joey G’s house, as well as at Teresa and Joe’s. Didn’t it make you the least bit hungry? Food aside, it looks like the Gorgas and Giudices are that much closer to a reconciliation.

Review: Nurse Jackie, S3, E10 – “F*ck the Lemurs”

Review: Nurse Jackie, S3, E10 - "F*ck the Lemurs" 22

Since when do children get to decide whether they need medication? Isn’t that the therapist’s call? And is Grace (Ruby Jerins) turning into her mother when she opts to use Xanax to quiet her anxieties? There’s a pill for everything, right? I’m not exactly sure I understand what’s going on with Grace, but I do know Jerins deserves an Emmy® nod for her performance in “F*ck the Lemurs.”

Just what we need – another awards show. The Broadcast Journalist Critics Choice Awards has branched out with its first ever Critics Choice Television Awards to be held in Los Angeles on Monday, June 20th. Given that this awards show has some unusual nominees and categories, I’m anxious to see it.

Review: The Killing, Season 1, Episode 11 – “Missing”

Review: The Killing, Season 1, Episode 11 - "Missing" 24

“Missing” is probably my favorite episode of The Killing so far. It’s definitely the rawest and gets us closer to the two detectives heading up the Larsen case.

Movie Review: X-Men:First Class...Entertaining, Engaging, And Outshines Its Predecessors! 25

X-Men: First Class is amazing! It is a fast-paced, yet engaging, installation of the X-Men film franchise that outshines its predecessors. While I enjoyed the other films, X-Men: First Class surpassed my expectations exponentially!
