Immediately, you get the sense that something is not right. Thanks to Balthazar (Sebastian Roche), of all demons.

Review: Bones, Season 6, Ep 18 “The Truth in the Myth”
Could the elusive and mythical Chupacabra be real? Could the elusive and mythical Chupacabra be real? There is no shortage of tales regarding its existence, but Brennan (Emily Deschanel) doesn’t believe it’s real despite the strange circumstances surrounding Lee Coleman’s (Leigh McCloskey) death. And butterflies eat dead people?

Review: Justified, Season 2, Ep 10 “Debts and Accounts”
Someone is trying to kill Raylan. Could it be the Bennetts in retaliation for Coover’s (Brad William Henke) untimely demise? Or could it be the Miami cartel coming back for revenge? “Debts and Accounts” is busier than a one-armed bandit! There is so much going on in this episode and it’s chock full of surprises.

Review: United States of Tara, Season 3, Ep 3 – “The Full ‘F*** You’ Finger”
With a variable “hoard” of things going on in “The Full ‘F*** You’ Finger,” it’s hard to focus on a main storyline. Everything seems to have significance in future episodes. I guess the one that catches my attention the most is Max’s (John Corbett) mother Sandy (guest star Frances Conroy), who is a hoarder.

Review – Nurse Jackie, Season 3, Episode 3 – “Play Me”
The words “Play Me” seem to have more than one meaning besides being the title. Perhaps they refer to God (Michael Buscemi, yes he’s Steve Buscemi’s brother, reprising his role from last season) stealing a street piano so he can play it for Zoey (Merritt Wever); or perhaps to Kevin (Dominic Fumusa), who uses his sister Tunie (Jaimie Alexander) to spy on Jackie for him; or it could be Coop (Peter Facinelli) playing Thor (Stephen Wallum) to get his help with a fantasy football league in the hospital. There’s a lot going on in “Play Me,” and it’s all good.

As “El Diablo” begins, we are once again faced with City Councilman Darren Richmond (Billy Campbell) and his possible role in the murder of Rosie Larsen. Of course, we’re also reintroduced to the horrific scene of last week’s “The Cage” but we’re still no closer to finding out what happened to Rosie.

Review: Bones, Season 6, Ep 18 – “The Feet on the Beach”

The scorned Dr. Fillmore (guest star Scott Lowell), resident Canadian forensic podiatrist, refuses to relinquish them to Brennan.

Review: The Vampire Diaries, Season 2, Ep 17 – “Know Thy Enemy”
How long has it been since the last The Vampire Diaries episode? So long that I don’t remember what happened in that last episode except Isobel (Mia Kirshner) showing up at Elena’s (Nina Dobrev) front door. That little ending left me on my toes and I was more than excited to find out what she’s …

Movie Review – “Source Code”
“Source Code” is a glitsy, science fiction version of Harold Ramis’ comedy, “Groundhog Day” combined with the twist you would find in “Twilight Zone.” Gyllenhaal does an admirable job with this movie, which is a relief given the amount of flops he’s been in recently. He captures the nuances of his character beautifully, whether it’s Capt. Stevens or Sean.

Showtime’s “Homeless” and “House of Lies” Get Full Orders
I remember the days when all the good tv was on broadcast networks, and the premium channels were reserved for movies that you either didn’t get a chance to catch at the movies, or couldn’t afford to go to. No so anymore. Back in 2010, Showtime announced they were greenlighting two new series, “Homeland” and “House of Lies.” Today, they announced both series have received 12-episode orders and will begin production this summer.

Mildred opens another restaurant; she throws Veda out of the house after an argument; she marries Monty and makes up with Veda; all leading up to a shocking revelation that changes Mildred’s life forever.
