‘Butter’ is a refreshingly realistic comedy about the way some people think of others, the highly competitive world of butter carving, and life in general. ‘Butter’ is a slightly dark, sarcastic, sexually charged, and hysterically funny comedy focusing on one woman’s desperate desire to stay on top of the social ladder and a child’s struggle to fit into a town where color stands out.

A young woman, Debbie Cortez (uncredited), is found Saran® wrapped and her remains are liquefied. While I don’t recommend eating any pudding or mushy foods while watching the first ten minutes of the episode, it’s quite unique how the writers come up with varying ways of decomposing human remains and how best to work with them in the lab. The fact that they use a soup ladle to scoop up the human goo (if you will) is both stomach- churning as it is fascinating.

Denis O’Hare is riding high in Hollywood these days with an upcoming role in Clint Eastwood’s film J. Edgar and TV roles in The Good Wife, True Blood and American Horror Story. O’Hare shared with us his interest in defined characters, his training as an actor, and he even discussed True Blood. However, most of our time was well spent discussing his role as Larry Harvey, the burnt man in American Horror Story.

I became interested in Kelly Osbourne, she of famous parents Ozzy and Sharon, during her turn on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. She fascinated me with her charm, quick wit and shining personality. Then she hooked up with Joan Rivers on E!’s Fashion Police, a show I dearly love, not only for the fashion, but the comedy as well. That shows never ceases to make me laugh. Now, Kelly has agreed to give her fans a look inside her personal life, along with her parents, brother Jack, and a close friend. The special airs Sunday, November 20 at 11:00 pm on E!.

I have mixed emotions about Sex on the Moon. While the title is somewhat misleading (there’s no literal sex on the moon), the heist it refers to doesn’t seem like much of a heist. It reads like a mind-game turned (potential and eventual) crime with a mastermind who’s clearly not much of a mastermind at all.

The opening shot of Mac (Rob McElhenney) sitting in a confessional perfectly sets the tone for this week’s installment of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. He’s a slouch in a t-shirt that doesn’t quite fit, showing off his fat belly. Not a pretty sight! When Father Cullen (W. Morgan Sheppard) asks what his confession is, Mac responds, “I’m fat.”

The rising tension between Gemma (Katey Sagal), Wayne (Dayton Callie) and Clay (Ron Perlman) help skeletons find their way out of the closet. When Wayne reveals to Opie (Ryan Hurst) that Clay killed his father Pinney (William Lucking), urging him to ‘off’ Clay before he kills someone else he loves, Gemma’s assertion that Clay will die in the hands of a Son takes on a prophetic undertone. Will it happen because of Gemma’s infinite wisdom or due to her ability to influence others?

I seriously laughed my ass off watching this episode. I don’t know how the show’s creator Elizabeth Meriwether came up with the concept for New Girl, but I’m glad she did. We learn a few things about the gang and I have to admit, I fall in love with the roommates a little more each time I see them.

Q&A with Norman Reedus (Daryl Dixon) of AMC’s The Walking Dead

In anticipation of NBC’s The National Dog Show, presented by Purina and hosted by The Kennel Club of Philadelphia, on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 24, 2011 at 12/11 am central time, host John O’Hurley and expert analyst David Frei were kind enough to participate in a conference call about the show and their ten-year tenure hosting it. In addition, they talk about their own dogs, what’s next for them, therapy dogs, the new breeds being introduced at the show this year, and what the viewers can expect.

Amy’s friend Sandy (Robin Wright) from the Hawaiian treatment center visits LA for a yoga conference and insists she stay with her (which really means her mom Helen’s (Diane Ladd) house. Amy beams as she’s finally around someone who understands what she’s been going through and shares her goals in making the world a better place.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Did anyone expect that ending? “The Weekend” answers a lot of questions, provokes even more unanswered questions, and gives us wonderful character studies of our three main protagonists. Never did I expect Walker to be the bad guy! Did you? He’s dead, right? At least Brody thinks he is. Let’s talk about how it all goes down first.

The combination of Hurricane Ginny pounding the Caribbean and a passenger’s illness bring unexpected complications for a New York to Caracas flight, but it also renders us Pan Am’s most intense episode of the season.

Flashbacks—I love them. They always seem to drop a crumb of something we missed onto our plates. I devour every morsel hungrily, and patiently wait for more. There’s so much we don’t know; a lot we have been left out of the loop since the first episode.

The physical comedy in “What’s Going on Downstairs?” or “Don’t Eat Eric!” throws me for a loop and I love every second of it! Who would have guessed the writers of Hung had ice skating up their sleeve?

In the wild, some animals prey on the weak. In Boss’ political jungle, things are even wilder. Mayor Tom Kane’s (Kelsey Grammer) enemies see a window of opportunity and their scheming begins. “Slip” is all about how complications multiply for Kane.

Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) go on their “annual pilgrimage to Vegas” and what happens in Vegas doesn’t technically stay in Vegas…Sam gets married and moves to Delaware! “Time for a Wedding” is full of laughs and sarcasm but it wouldn’t be Supernatural without some gruesome incidents occurring. The crossroads demon is circumventing a loop hole to cash in the 10 year contracts a bit earlier than his victims intended.

A young woman is found half-eaten in her terrarium with her pet python slithering around inside her decaying intestines – it’s enough to make anyone vomit, and I nearly did. But, I complained about last week’s uninteresting murder case. Although this one has a more unique back story, it still isn’t as enticing as the new intern Finn’s (guest star Luke Kleintank) past!

Yup, I’m saying it again. I don’t think The Vampire Diaries can top itself, until it does again and again. I am left in shock (and screaming “We have to wait until when?!”) by the end of “Homecoming.”
