Review: The Big C, Season 2, Ep. 9 “A Little Death” (Nothing soothes grief like an open bar, sushi, and sex)

Nothing soothes grief like an open bar, sushi, and sex? And who blasts invites to a funeral via Twitter? Are funerals the new aphrodisiac? Well, if the Max Buy van is a rockin’, don’t come a knockin’! LOL! And are you a KOC?

Review: The Closer, S7, E6 “A Family Affair”

From comedy to drama, The Closer doesn’t want to fit itself into typical television fare. It breaks out of that mold and creates its own category of entertainment. It’s what I like to call fantastic. Everything about it pulls you in and holds you fast.

Review: The Glades, S2, E11 – “Beached”

With only two more episodes left in the season, The Glades starts turning up the Florida heat and taking the relationship they’ve been dangling before us like the proverbial carrot to the next level…or, at least, giving it a legitimate chance to level up. Detective Jim Longworth (Matt Passmore) is a bit cranky about investigating the body of a “well-coiffed executive” found on a popular stretch of beach, but the interruption of his golf game is only partially to blame.

Recap/Review: The Real Housewives of New Jersey, S3, E14 – “Belly Up & Up”

Jacqueline and Chris finally come to their senses and throw Ashley out; Kathy throws a sumptuous Middle Eastern-themed tasting party; and Teresa and Joe visit their attorney to hear the judge’s ruling on their bankruptcy. That about sums up “Belly Up & Up,” but let me tell you how it begins.

Review: True Blood, S4, E45 – “Run”

I don’t know what to say about this episode. It falls flat for me.

Book Review: “The Host” by Stephanie Meyer

This book has everything: suspense, mystery, and a love triangle. It made me question decisions I would make, the nature of humanity, and the power of love.

Review: #Haven , Season 2, Ep. 6 “Audrey Parker’s Day Off” (Will the day never end?)

Haven is fast becoming one of my favorite TV shows. Each week we are presented with a new and interesting affliction which causes even stranger events. “Audrey Parker’s Day Off” is exciting and engrossing. As I watch with eager anticipation of who will die next, I try to figure out the mystery of why the day is repeating. Seeing Audrey’s reactions to each of her friends’ death brings you a little closer to the characters.

News/Photos: “American Horror Story” only on FX

Exclusive Movie Trailer: “The Last Circus”

Written and directed by Álex de la Iglesia, The Last Circus has received many accolades from media and print reporters alike. According to Variety, “Cult status is assured.” From the Village Voice, “Makes Pan’s Labyrinth look like Sesame Street.”And from Harry Knowles at AICN, “BRILLIANT. A GREAT FILM. A searing, intimate work riffing on Hitchcock, DePalma, Fellini, the Universal Monster films and German Expressionism.” You can’t get higher praise than that. A winner at the 2010 Venice Film Festival, The Last Circus opens at theaters this weekend.

Review: #WilfredFX , Season 1, Ep 10 “Isolation” (Won’t you be my neighbor?)

Jenna thinks Ryan’s been on vacation because his blinds are closed and she hasn’t seen him in three days. Wilfred seems a bit perturbed by Ryan’s absence, thinking he’s avoiding him. And why does Ryan think he has to impress his neighbors? What’s the moral – be kind to your neighbors because never know when you’ll need them? And don’t get hand-jobs from heroin-addled bums…just don’t… period.

Review: #WilfredFX , Season 1, Ep 9 “Compassion” (“everybody’s a little coo-coo”)

While I enjoyed “Compassion,” it was a bit lackluster for me. I think Mary Steenburgen did a fantastic job of being the kooky mom but overall, the episode had only a few moments of ‘ha ha’ and not the usual ‘LOL! OMG! WTF!’ Of course, this episode has a grander purpose so I’ll excuse the shortage of guffaws.

Review: Rescue Me, S7, E6 – “344”

“344” is rife with dramatic dialogue which rivets me to my seat, intently listening to each conversation. While there aren’t as many comedic scenes as usual this week, that’s ok. Rescue Me is, after all, a very dark show. Tommy is extremely affected by a visit to Ground Zero, which manifests itself in several different ways.

News: TNT Begins Production on “Perception,” its New Original Series Starring Eric McCormack

We’ve all been waiting to see Will & Grace star Eric McCormack grace our screens again in a starring role.

Production has begun on the ten episodes scheduled, which will air summer 2012.

Review: The Big C, Season 2, Ep. 8 “The Last Thanksgiving” (No turkey, no fingernails, and no ring)

Cathy (Laura Linney) keeps her missing fingernails a secret from her “mole-mate” Lee (guest star Hugh Dancy); Sean (John Hickey) and Adam (Gabriel Basso) bring a live turkey for dinner; Myk (Boyd Holbrook) professes his love for Andrea (Gabourey Sidibe); And Rebecca (Cynthia Nixon) and Sean get engaged.

Review: The Closer, S7, E6 – “Home Improvement”

What an interesting storyline this week. A sex offender is found murdered on a job site. And the laughs just continue on. “Sure you don’t want to just cover him up and call it a day?”

Review: The Glades, S2, E10 – “Swamp Thing”

Now I get why real estate agents are all about location, location, location. I mean, where else besides The Glades could a Boy Scout troop on a nature hike encounter the remains of a wild boar—complete with remnants of a zipper and a human finger—except the Florida Everglades?

News: “The Real Housewives Live Tour” Coming to a City Near You in October

Review: True Blood, S4, E44 – “Spellbound”

“Spellbound” is laced with subtle hints of the lack of tolerance for prejudice, especially the overwhelming and highlighted prejudice the witches harbor for the vamps.

Recap/Review: The Real Housewives of New Jersey, S3, E13 – “Child’s Play No More”

Finally, things come to a head with Ashley and her parents. It’s about time this kid is put in her place. Speaking of kids — Oh. My. God. If my kids were as bad as Teresa’s, I’d shoot myself! All they have to do is pose for pictures for Teresa’s newest cookbook, “Fabulicious,” and everyone can go home. But no. They have to cry and fuss. Teresa is really wearing rose-colored glasses if she thinks her girls are good.

Review: #Haven , Season 2, Ep. 5 “Roots” (Mystery, greed, jealousy, and #Twitter…?)

“Roots” keeps me rooted to my seat! Mysterious disappearances, decades old family drama, greed, jealousy, humor, and sex – what more could you ask for? It’s also the first Twitter-integrated episode. As Audrey gets closer to Chris, Nathan is left alone in the barn…And who is Evi calling after Duke declines her offer to run away to Mexico?
