When It Rains… Review: The Walking Dead – “Internment”

When It Rains… Review: The Walking Dead - “Internment” 3

I must decree “Internment” is an exciting, tense, and frightening episode—maybe even one of the top five best episodes. And not even because of the walkers.

Electrifying Developments. Review Haven — “William”

Electrifying Developments. Review Haven — “William” 4

Just when I think I have an idea of what’s happening on Haven, “William” blows my theories to smithereens. “William” is a fantastic, mind-blowing episode that will have your jaws aching from being dropped to the floor, and your eyes and ears straining to make sure you don’t miss a single electrifying moment! Beware, things are not as they seem.

The Dr. Is In. Retrospective: White Collar – “Controlling Interests”

The Dr. Is In. Retrospective: White Collar - “Controlling Interests” 8

I’m going to just come out and say it—this episode simply did not work for me on many levels but I’m not 100% sure why. Something feels off and I don’t know whether it’s because the writers are setting the characters up for something big (like an emotional breakdown for someone) or something else entirely.

This Little Piggy… Retrospective: Grimm – “A Dish Best Served Cold”

This Little Piggy... Retrospective: Grimm – “A Dish Best Served Cold” 9

An unappetizing quote leads us into a macabre episode of culinary frights. “A Dish Best Served Cold” is quite gruesome in its subject matter with tension slowly building from the opening scene to the end. I found myself unable to turn away from the screen because something major was going down and I didn’t want to miss a single second.

Fun? What Fun? Review: The Tomorrow People – “All Tomorrow’s Parties” 10

With solutions come trouble and The Tomorrow People doesn’t shy away from the drama or violence. It dives right in and shows you just how bad things can get when no one listens to their leader because the fun must be had!

Danny Masterson (Men at Work, That ‘70s Show) and Kris Lemche (Joan of Arcadia, Ghost Whisperer) join the cast of Syfy’s popular series Haven as guest stars. In the cross-over episode, titled “A Shot in the Dark,” Haven’s season-long social media storyline makes the jump to the small screen when the Darkside Seekers, a duo of paranormal investigators who star in their own low-budget TV reality show, pay the town of Haven a visit to investigate reports of a murder victim missing a heart.

Different Kinds of Scars. Review: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D - “F.Z.Z.T” 13

Following the Chitauri alien attack on New York depicted in the movie The Avengers, first responders were sent in to help clean up the aftermath. Two years later, the bodies of some of those involved in the cleanup have been found suspended in mid-air, definitely making this a case for the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

TV News: FX's American Horror Story Renewed for a Fourth Season 15

An Outpouring of Secrets – Retrospective: Sons of Anarchy – “John 8:32”

An Outpouring of Secrets - Retrospective: Sons of Anarchy – “John 8:32” 16

The title, “John 8:32” hints at it all—this is the episode in which the outpouring of secrets is unleashed courtesy of Tara (Maggie Siff) and Gemma (Katey Sagal). The latest incident between the women causes the men in their lives to take sides. As each woman fights for equal footing, will the truth really set the Charming folk free?

An Unappetizing Feat. Retrospective: Sleepy Hollow – “The Sin Eater”

An Unappetizing Feat. Retrospective: Sleepy Hollow – “The Sin Eater” 17

“The Sin Eater” knocks it out of the park, pun intended. After a three week hiatus, Sleepy Hollow comes to bat ready to hit home runs for the rest of the season. “The Sin Eater” makes no apologies as it roars through in a most frightening manner with talk of demons and sin. Nightmare sequences complete with crackling lightning, a crying baby, strange looking dolls, and a headless horseman – all things that would make anyone cringe.

An Unexpected Partnership. Recap: Castle – “Like Father, Like Daughter”

An Unexpected Partnership. Recap: Castle - "Like Father, Like Daughter" 18

As the title “Like Father, Like Daughter” suggests, last night’s Castle was all about Alexis (Molly Quinn). I would have completely loved all the father-daughter scenes between Castle (Nathan Fillion) and Alexis if the episode hadn’t come to life during this season. Alexis used to be the intelligent, levelheaded, voice of reason on the show and I like to admit I had a lot in common with her. Now all I want to do is call her the scum of the earth! All right, that’s a little harsh. But really, she has turned into a spoiled little brat who is acting all kinds of selfish.

A Kiss Goodnight. Retrospective: Witches of East End – “Electric Avenue”

A Kiss Goodnight. Retrospective: Witches of East End - "Electric Avenue" 21

Witches of East End hits a high mark with its latest episode “Electric Avenue.” A well-balanced blend of humor and heartbreak, the Lifetime series continues to build its mythology without losing the continuity of its storylines. Whereas most fledgling sci-fi/fantasy series lean on its supernatural elements—failing to develop its characters—Witches of East End has not lost sight at the key ingredient which makes this series so great: family.

Morphing Troubles and Creepy Crabs. Retrospective: Haven — “Crush”

Morphing Troubles and Creepy Crabs. Retrospective: Haven — “Crush” 24

“Crush” isn’t just about someone liking someone, it’s more a literal term meaning someone’s trouble is crushing people to death. While this trouble is a unique one in that the person afflicted has never had a family history of a trouble, what is most intriguing is the reason why the troubles are morphing. And as Lexie/Audrey (Emily Rose) said in “Lay Me Down,” things in Haven are about to get weird..er.
