While I enjoyed reading Slammed, I didn’t find it to be realistic. My connection to the characters failed as they didn’t contain the substance needed to make me care about them. If I can’t relate to a character, or feel their circumstance is probable, you lose me.

Lachlan MacAldonich (Robert Carlyle, The Full Monty, Trainspotting, Once Upon a Time) is a washed up, burned out, embittered former Scottish pop rock guitarist who is now working on an organic farm outside Los Angeles. Self-exiled in America for the past 12 years, Lachlan cannot face the fact that he was responsible for the drug-related death of his brother and fellow band mate/lead singer of the 90s grunge band, The Cranks. Nor can he go back to the UK where he will surely face the wrath of family, friends, and fans. What he does, and how he deals with the direction his life is taking is the basis of this melancholy tale.

Memories of Opie’s (Ryan Hurst) death won’t go away as Jax (Charlie Hunnam) presses forward with his plans. The topic of making choices takes center stage again in “Cruxified” and given how high the stakes are with SAMCRO and the criminal organizations they work with, the decisions each member of the MC makes will have even more grave repercussions.

#SonsofAnarchy Jimmy Smits talks about being Nero and more. He makes comparisons to HAMLET in regards to the characters and the MC in particular. He also talks about…well, you should just read it!

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.

“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.

“The Killer” surprises me with its unpredictable outcome and witty writing, providing quite the enjoyable viewing experience.

#Haven gets 4th season! I love Haven! It’s one of my favorite shows on television. The cast, the location, and the stories are all fantastic. I’m ready to take a trip to Nova Scotia where the show is filmed because I want to be in Haven. Congrats to the cast, crew, and all involved on the show!

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.

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!

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.”

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.

The frantic search for Frankie Diamonds (Chuck Zito) intensifies the battle for the gavel between Jax (Charlie Hunnam) and Clay (Ron Perlman) as each man makes moves to solidify his footing within the Club. As the glue that holds SAMCRO together continues to come undone, “Andare Pescare” keeps us glued to our seats.

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 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.

#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.

#Grimm gives us kidnapping, torturous murder, panic, and stolen kisses—“The Hour of Death” will surely keep your mind reeling and pulse racing.

“The Five” answers some questions while leaving me with a few more. Just who are these vampire hunters, and who will be able to take them out?

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.
