It’s not surprising to me that TNT has renewed its fast-paced drama Leverage. It grows in viewership each season, and rightfully so. It’s a modern day Robin Hood, if you will, and who doesn’t love stories that involve taking from the rich and giving to the poor. Especially in this day and age when so many people are struggling to keep their heads above water. Leverage is such a fun show and I couldn’t be happier.

I don’t know about you, but I’m scared – just from watching the “clues” FX has been sending about its new fall series, American Horror Story. So I can’t wait to watch the series which premieres Wednesday, October 5 at 10:00 pm ET/PT. I mean, who doesn’t love a good thriller? Remember how scared you were when you first saw Friday the 13th or Scream? Now fans are getting a chance to be just as scared as the characters on the show, simply by letting FX in.

Allen makes you fall in love with her characters, relate to them on a personal level, and root for them in whatever new experiences they undertake.

Ryan is having a recurring dream about his childhood dog Sneakers; Wilfred vies for Kristen’s attention after Ryan mentions she hates him – and what says “I adore you” better than a dead rodent? And has Sneakers come back to avenge his death? I love the little morality lessons that are peppered into each episode of Wilfred.

As one of my favorite shows this summer, I was very happy to hear the news today that USA has renewed Suits for a second season. From the very first episode, I was hooked, and in my Advance Review of the new series, wrote “Suits grabbed me from the opening scene and kept me interested and amused throughout the entire hour. I thoroughly enjoyed the show. The writing is sharp and witty and the characters perfectly acted. While the show has a serious undertone to it, it’s lighthearted enough to make this a very pleasant and enjoyable show, fitting perfectly into USA’s network of characters.” I think I hit the proverbial nail right on the head.

HBO RENEWS HIT SERIES TRUE BLOOD FOR FIFTH SEASON
Aug 11 2011
I don’t want to ruin the fun you’ll have watching everyone’s plans come to fruition. I will tell you it involves getting dirt on Keppler, a free-for-all at a bar between the cops and the firefighters, figuring out the name of the guy Mike slept with and confronting him, and an award-winning performance by Callie Thorne for delivering the blows that end Tommy’s suspension. You just can’t keep a good man down. Wait. Did I say ‘good?’

Top Chef moves to Texas, the state that does everything bigger, for season nine of the Emmy and James Beard No. 1 award-winning food show on cable.

In a press release from Syfy today: “Syfy’s popular series Haven will become the first television series to create a storyline that flows between the show itself and the micro-blogging service Twitter when it launches a special seven-episode arc beginning Friday, August 12, at 10PM (ET/PT).”

Lee (Hugh Dancy) likes “bears”; Cathy’s (Laura Linney) blood pressure is rising and realizes Lee is her “mole-mate”; Paul (Oliver Platt) throws his back out but is saved by an unlikely ‘bear-ish’ hero; Andrea (Gabourey Sidibe) and Myk (Boyd Holbrook) go on their first date; and Marlene (Phyllis Somerville) gets in the tub with Cathy.

White Collar draws taut the strings of anticipation in a tensely-wrought, well-played mid-season finale. “Countdown” reminds us just who these lead characters are – “Gotham City’s finest Cop and Robber” – while at the same time forcing each man to decide who they want to be. And the way everything comes together at the end of this episode is going to make waiting for the winter premiere excruciating.

From the beginning, I was intrigued by the premise of Falling Skies.Throughout the entire season, I’ve been asking myself questions about why the aliens invaded Earth. Just as we feel we are the superior beings, the aliens may feel the same way. Ours is not so unlike their behavior. We as humans have committed the same acts throughout history by invading other countries and oppressing other people just because one race feels superior to another. Is Falling Skies a cleverly disguised metaphor for prejudice?

This episode is full of amusement. From finding out the dead guy wears women’s shoes, to the team wondering about Gabriel’s loyalty, I didn’t have a dull moment while watching. At least they’ve saved the best for last.

While most of you watched “Auld Lang Syne for an Eye” on Sunday night, I didn’t get to watch it until Monday night at 9:00 pm. The show was pre-empted on the east coast for an episode of Guiliana and Bill.”

America has a terrible secret: 99% of the puppies sold in U.S. pet stores come from puppy mills, and nearly 100% of them have parasites at the time of purchase. Pet stores around the country sell dogs riddled with infections and ailments because their parents are housed in inhumane facilities, relentlessly bred and then callously discarded.

Centering the story on a focal point that drew this viewer to the show in the first place, The Glades delivers an emotional crime-solving episode with “Iron Pipeline.” It may seem odd to some for a police drama to have an anti-gun message of sorts; nevertheless, I think the episode is handled very well.

I started off watching True Blood before I knew anything about the Southern Vampire Mysteries series. So I’d like to think I’m not biased when I say, “WTF has happened to my show?!”

I’m an avid fan of USA’s In Plain Sight so every time I am afforded the opportunity to speak with Mary McCormack and Fred Weller, I jump at it. On Monday, August 2nd, I spoke with the stars of this great series for the third time in two years. Mary and Fred are incredibly fun to talk to and are always willing to answer anything that comes their way.

While “Sparks and Recreation” had its ‘electrifying’ moments (pun intended), it left me wanting. I can’t pinpoint exactly what it was that turned me off, but this week’s troubled case just didn’t have the oomph necessary to keep me engaged.

It was such a pleasure to speak to Rob McIlhenny (“Mac”), Glenn Howerton (“Dennis”), and Charlie Day (“Charlie”). Each was nicer than the next. They couldn’t have been more accommodating if they tried. I have three interviews, one of each. I have already posted my interview with Charlie, so this time, you’ll be watching Glenn Howerton. Be prepared to laugh because let me tell you, Glenn Howerton is hysterical. I’ll post the interview with Rob McIlhenny in a few weeks.

When Ryan gets into a car accident, Wilfred suggests Ryan have sex with Beth to get out of paying for the damages to her SUV. “Just like every woman, a delicate flower. She may say she wants your money, but what she really needs is nurturing, tenderness, and a nasty sex limp.”

Rizzoli & Isles stars Angie Harmon as Jane Rizzoli, a tough-as-nails Boston police detective, and Sasha Alexander as Maura Isles, a smart, impeccably dressed medical examiner from a privileged background. Despite being complete opposites, the two women share an offbeat chemistry and strong working relationship that has helped them bust some of Boston’s most notorious criminals.

Sarah Michelle Geller has plenty of fans from her days on Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, all thrilled to see her return to television in her new role as the star of CW’s Ringer, where she plays twins. In talking about her role at The CW’s 2011 Summer TCA panel for Ringer at The Beverly Hilton Hotel on Thursday, August 4th, and the challenges of playing a dual role, she commented,
