A fairly solid episode, “Say the Word” sheds some light on what’s going on in Woodbury and why there’s no shame in getting the hell outta dodge when you can.

Another Fantastic Character Study. Review: Homeland – “The Clearing”
“The Clearing” is a very character intensive episode, and while not as powerful as other episodes of Homeland this season, it is still quite gripping.

Book Review: Willow by Julia Hoban
I’ve wondered how such an act can possibly bring someone relief but the third-person narration convinced me of just how much of an unburdening it can be—with descriptions of razors cutting the skin and the blood prickling underneath demonstrating it as a release from psychological hurt.

Who Has to do the Dishes? Review: It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia – “The Gang Gets Analyzed”
Sunny does a great job of delving deep into its archives, bringing up old storylines like Dee wanting to be an actress, Dennis being an Ivy League snob and God’s gift to women, and Charlie screaming to get his point across. But that’s what Sunny is good at—using a tried and true formula that obviously works since the show’s been around for eight seasons, with a ninth already scheduled. Hey, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

A Common Thread. Review: American Horror Story: Asylum, S2 Ep 4 – “I Am Anne Frank: Pt. 1”
I’d like to think we’ve seen the full brunt of his diabolism, but apparently, there are even more layers of evil. What he’s doing to Shelley (Chloe Sevigny) is beyond reprehensible. There seems to be no rhyme or reason for his so-called experiments; it’s simply about doling out torture, and if indeed he was a Nazi war criminal, then he’s just plain sadistic, unlike Adolf Eichmann, the subject of Hannah Arendt’s “Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil.”

Yet Another One That Makes Me Think… Book Review: UnWholly by Neal Shusterman
I’m once again floored by Shusterman. Not only does he impress me with UnWholly, I think he eclipses what he did with the first book in the Unwind series.

Can Brody Really Be Trusted? Review: Homeland – “A Gettysburg Address”
There was no way “A Gettysburg Address” could have been as riveting as last week’s “Q&A,” but it still gives viewers enough to chew on to keep them more than invested. This week’s installment of Homeland raises a lot of interesting questions now that we’ve reached the middle of this stellar season, not the least of which is whether Brody (Damian Lewis) can be trusted, or whether his alliances still lie with Abu Nazir (Navid Negahban).

The Episode Where All Hell Breaks Loose… Review: The Walking Dead “The Killer Within”
The Walking Dead amazes me every week, even when I think it’ll be another episode of the same old thing. I’m completely enamored with the show and what the writers have done with the concept of surviving a zombiepocalypse.

Huh? WOW! NO! Retrospective: Haven, S3 “Magic Hour – Part 1”
#EscapeToHaven? I’m not so sure I want to with an overflow of killers as of late. First it was the bolt-gun killer, now there are blackmailers who are killing people promising to resurrect them for a price. The “troubled” case in “Magic Hour” really proves quite alluring.

Talk About Being Naïve! Review: It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia – “Charlie and Dee Find Love”
Unfortunately, “Charlie and Dee Find Love” doesn’t live up to Sunny’s high comedic standards. I laughed and smiled but I didn’t have any good belly laughs or laugh-out-loud moments. It felt as if the writers were trying too hard to make this episode funny, and it didn’t work.

TV News: HBO Joins NBC Universal for “Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together”
By now, the entire country is well aware of the devastation Hurricane Sandy wreaked up and down the east coast this past weekend. And here we are, days later, and friends and family, even entire neighborhoods, are still without food, power, and the creature comforts we all take for granted. As this great nation often does, now is the time to pull together and help out any way we can. And that is exactly what HBO and NBC Universal are doing with “Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together.” The live one-hour special will air Friday, November 2 (8-9 pm ET/tape-delayed PT), and all proceeds received will go directly to the American Red Cross relief efforts for Hurricane Sandy.

Ravish Me Red. Review: American Horror Story: Asylum, S2 Ep 3 – “Nor’easter”
But for Sister Jude (Jessica Lange), her torment is very real, and what she sees is not an illusion, at all. In fact, what she sees gets right up in her face. Yeah, ghoulish! Not only that, but she’s tormented by an enormously sinful past.

Brother against Brother: A Ruthless Jax Hangs onto the Gavel. Recap: Sons of Anarchy, S5 “Ablation”
“I’m tired of watching my back.” Considering everything Jax (Charlie Hunnam) has dealt with in the last two seasons, I’m amazed it has taken him this long enough to say those words. But with his family possibly in danger, Jax sinks deeper into the darkness that has overtaken him ever since Opie’s (Ryan Hurst) death.
