Tonight
is the last night to enter our
Longmire Season 3 DVD
giveaway! Please enter!
This week, I caught up on a lot of my shows that I normally
watch...we had a visitor last week, so I was way behind on
some of the shows like "How to Get Away With Murder". Such a
good show!
The only thing that bothers me is that they keep referring
to Sam's death as murder when really it was self-defense. He
was strangling the girl (Rebecca?)! A bunch of law students
and a law professor covering up his death is just
ridiculously stupid. I understand that people sometimes
panic, but ALL of those people acting so stupid at once when
they KNOW the law? I'm not sure I buy that. The rest of it
is good, though. NOT that I liked the way the season finale
ended. Fooey. I liked Rebecca and Frank.
This week's Primetime News and Schedule page is
here!
Next week's is at
here.
Check it out! I put a lot of work into it.
The "Castle"
astronaut episode sure was fun... even though, honestly, I
don't think I'd ever go to space. I think the zero gravity
thing would be
interesting, but otherwise I wouldn't want to risk. Maybe if
it were more advanced, like "Star
Trek", with very little risk, then I might do it. I'm
just not that brave, I guess! I like how they had a sort of
"Murder on the Orient Express" ending to it, too.
They were also discussing space travel on "The Nightly Show"
this week and talking about people who volunteered to crew
this mission to Mars flight. Apparently, it's a one-way
flight. I don't care how messed up your life is--why would
you want to throw it away like that? I guess I'll never
understand.
I was also catching up on the Masterpiece Theater
episodes of "Grantchester" which has been really great! I
love a good old-fashioned English mystery.
They
did a 70's-themed episode on "Forever". That one made me
feel old. I was in high school during that decade. It's
always a good show, though.
Our regular February DVD drawing ended on 2/25. I still have
to pick a winner. Make sure to enter the
next one that starts
3/5.
The only CBS shows I'm caught up on are "The Good Wife,"
"Elementary,"
and "Big Bang
Theory". This week's episode with Penny and Sheldon was
cute. They have great chemistry. I'm glad to see TGW is
coming back soon. I'm still in mourning about the end of "The
Mentalist," though! I so loved that show. None of the
other remaining CBS shows are interesting enough to watch...
I also caught up on the past few weeks' episodes of "Gotham"
and "Arrow",
to great new comic book shows. I hope Alfred will be okay!
Besides "Gotham," the only other FOX shows I watch are "Bones,"
"Family
Guy," "Backstrom," and "Sleepy
Hollow." I hope that FOX gives "Backstrom" a chance
because it's so enjoyable.
Another
great show that's ending is "Justified"
and I really hate to see it go. This week's episode with
Boyd down in the mine was epic. Jeff Fahey is always
terrific, too. They always have an amazing cast.
I have a few DVD's to catch up on: Syfy's "12 Monkeys"
and the new USA Network show "Dig" as well as some other
DVD's that you can buy in the store soon. I
review them for
our site. I also have some new shows to watch. It never
ends! LOL!
I still have a few more interviews to put up, too.
Tomorrow I get to
interview Gabriel Macht (Harvey on "Suits"); he's always
very nice. Next week, it'll be Vera Fargia, Kerry
Ehrin and Carlton Cuse from A&E's "Bates Motel." I don't
watch that one regularly, but I'm sure I'll come up with
something to ask!
Our Daytime
Manager Gisele was out of town last week, so I had to do a
little of her work as well as mine...so glad she's back! I
depend on all of our volunteers so much. If you have a
little free time, we can really use some more
help.
We're getting a new writer who'll be writing some recaps
for "Once
Upon a Time" and perhaps some other shows, so that'll be
awesome!
The Oscars were great to watch... I watched them a few
days late, but I felt
like
if I didn't watch, then I would hear or read about all of it
within a week. I would rather watch it then read other
people's interpretations or SPOILERS of it. I think it was
an interesting year because there were a lot of good
films, but not too many great ones. Nothing to sweep
the awards. I don't know why so many critics blasted the
awards show and particularly Neil Patrick Harris' hosting. I
thought he did a fine job. The show always drags a bit and
is always way too long. I thought the songs were mostly very
good, and I liked a few of the speeches. I thought most of
his jokes were funny. I thought the only bit that didn't
work was his so-called predictions. Otherwise, the rest was
hilarious. His singing was good and I thought the first
number was good. Last year's were hosted by Seth McFarlane,
who offended a lot of people, so I think this year's were
definitely an improvement!
Anyway, it was a great year for TV fans because so many
former or current TV stars won! Best Actress winner Julianne
Moore did a lot of TV and was a regular on "As
The World Turns". Even after she struck it big in
movies, she was on "30
Rock" quite a bit. Best Supporting Actress Patricia
Arquette starred in "Medium"
and is now starring in the new series "CSI:
Cyber", which premieres March 4th on CBS.
Best Supporting Actor J.K. Simmons has been on many TV shows
like "Law &
Order," "The Closer," and "Oz," not to mention many
commercials. Best Actor Eddie Redmayne also did quite a lot
of TV, especially miniseries. Even Oscar-winning director
Alejandro G. Iñárritu has created a new TV show for Starz
called "The One Percent" (It will probably debut in 2016 or
later).
I don't watch the
soaps regularly any more, but I see parts of them in
passing. Judging from what I saw of today's "The
Young & The Restless," Hilary told Neil that she's been
playing him all along, that everything that's happened was
part of her revenge against him. It was quite shocking, but
I have to think that the whole reason she's telling him this
is actually selfless - so that he and everyone else will
forgive Devon and just blame her instead. Devon overheard
what she was telling Neil, so I hope he already understands
that what she's saying are lies...
Good news, they've announced that there will be a season
3 of
"Broadchurch" and that both David Tennant and Olivia Colman
will return! Yay! I can't wait for season 2, which starts
March 2 on BBC America.
There's a
bunch of new shows coming up in March. Which ones are
you looking forward to? I saw "Last Man on Earth" and it's
not that funny, but it IS an interesting idea. I'm really
looking forward to "Battle Creek" and "Dig".
Well, time to catch up on "Suits"! A great show but boy,
am I behind. I've only got a few hours...LOL! Hmm....
We could really use some new
volunteers, especially in
our Primetime
section, so please
email me if you can help out!
Have a great weekend!
