Review: Girls – “Weirdos Need Girlfriends Too”– Can Marnie Be Spontaneous and is Adam Stupid, Weird or both?
“Weirdos Need Girlfriends Too” seems to suggest there must be someone for everyone in this world. Is that really true and what level of weird are we referring to? This week, the series explores if the romantic ideal holds any weight, not only for Hannah (Lena Dunham) but for Marnie (Allison Williams) and Jessa (Jemima Kirke) too.

Have your cake and eat it too… Review: The Borgias “Truth and Lies”
What I loved about “Truth and Lies” were Cesare’s sinister demeanor and the fear in Juan’s eyes. The Pope seems a bit put off by Juan’s recent behavior and, for a brief moment, I hoped the Pope would push the blade into Juan’s throat but instead he just felt sorry for his son. Admittedly, without Juan, there’d be no antagonism in Cesare’s storyline. With only two episodes left, I hope the animosity between Cesare and Juan comes to a head.

Feeling Exposed and Stupid – Review: The Big C “Killjoy”
I really enjoyed “Killjoy.” It brings back the darker edge to the humor like it once had, as well as some juicy backstabbing drama. Joy will do whatever it takes to get her ‘joy’ even if it ruins someone’s life. Paul is becoming more selfish, something I think he picked up from Cathy.

Hot and Cold Feelings Abound. Review: Nurse Jackie – “Chaud & Froid”
As season four begins to wind down, there are major changes underfoot at All Saints. “Chaud & Froid,” the French term for hot and cold, not only deals with the water Jackie (Edie Falco) and Dr. Cruz (Bobby Cannavale) use to revive Charlie (Jake Cannavale) from his drug overdose, but with some vacillating feelings between Jackie and Zoey (Merritt Wever), and Dr. O’Hara (Eve Best) and Coop (Peter Facinelli). This very interesting installment perfectly sets up what’s to come in the remaining two episodes of this amazing season.

Will Rosie’s Case Land Linden In Lockdown Again? Review: The Killing “72 Hours”
While “72 Hours” isn’t the most gripping episode, it’s important. We see a side of Linden that’s so deep it hurts to watch her being ripped open and torn apart. I only hope she can keep it together long enough to put Rosie’s killer away.

Dementia, A Break-Up, and a Hospital Accident. Review: Nurse Jackie – “Day of the Iguana”
Zoey (Merritt Wever) breaks up with Lenny (Lenny Jacobson) and Jackie (Edie Falco) prepares for her upcoming custody battle. Dr. Cruz (Bobby Cannavale) has an anxiety attack and Gloria (Anna Deavere Smith) revisits her past with a former All Saints employee. “Day of the Iguana” is one of Nurse Jackie’s better episodes this season. It has a wonderful mix of laughter and sadness and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Movie Review: Virginia (Jennifer Connelly,Ed Harris) “I’m gonna make us peas and carrots tonight…from scratch.”
Living in a small town has its perks but it can also be a nightmare for a well-known sheriff trying to run for state senate. How Tipton (Ed Harris) and Virginia (Jennifer Connelly) have been able kept their affair secret for so long is beyond me but when Virginia finds out something is growing inside her, the truth becomes more twisted than you can imagine. Throw in a couple of botched robbery attempts, a kidnapping, young love, and a whole lot of heart and you have yourself a very entertaining film.
