So, you know how you have that show that you absolutely love, but there’s an episode that just doesn’t float your boat? Yeah – me too. Not that it isn’t good, this episode, but it’s not up to the standards to which you’ve become accustomed. Mind you, seeing Jesse Heiman sucking on a water fountain spout brightened my day – but otherwise… …

Nice Boy of the Week: Adam Scott
If you do a google search for Adam Scott, the first page is filled with results for two different celebrities. While they have much in common, ‘slightly tousled’ hair, low-key success in their chosen field, and a charming humility, the Adam Scott I’m profiling is not at all interested in golf. He currently stars as Ben Wyatt in the ensemble …
Read More »Castle: “Once Upon a Crime” recap – or – Ryan had ‘Chucky’; I had ‘Magic’
It was like a fantasy come true. I’m not just talking about Nathan Fillion in a robe either. Let’s jump right in and talk about this week’s Castle, “Once Upon a Crime”. Two murders, three deaths, one blackmailer, and one wicked witch. There’s even a crazy doll lady. For once, I didn’t predict the murderer until near the very end. …
Read More »Castle: “Once Upon a Crime” sneak peek
I just watched the first ten minutes of this week’s upcoming episode of Castle, “Once Upon a Crime”. Along with the promos, it gave me a tantalizing preview of what’s to come. It looks pretty hilarious. A nice silly break from the last two much more serious episodes. Beckett and her team are assigned to investigate a string of murders …
Read More »Parks & Recreation: “Sweet Sixteen” recap – or – Genuinely Jerry
Oh sweet, lovable, sad-sack, failure Jerry. I wondered if he could get more pathetic, and it turns out he could. His birthday is February 29th. Not that there’s a problem with that – but pile it on top of everything else that’s wrong with Jerry and it paints a very vivid picture. This time, it’s not a painting of Leslie as a …
Read More »Castle “Linchpin” recap -or- Why my husband hates me today
Most of my favorite Castle episodes are multi-part, ongoing story arc episodes. That’s why my husband and I were so excited at 10pm Monday night. Just after the opening recap, as the car was sinking, I said, “I bet Sophia is a bad guy”. This is why my husband hates me. Oh yeah, he kissed me goodbye when he left …
Read More »Parks & Recreation: “Dave Returns” Recap
Ever since I heard that Louis C.K. would be back as Leslie’s ex-boyfriend, Dave – I’ve been looking forward to “[easyazon-link asin=”B007AB7GKY”]Dave Returns[/easyazon-link]”. Totally worth the wait. Not only was the main storyline hilarious, the two side stories were also fantastic. I knew from the spoilers that Dave would try to win Leslie back in front of her current boyfriend, …
Read More »CASTLE: “Pandora” recap
Pandora’s box has been opened, and it’s Castle’s dream come true. Finally, a CIA conspiracy! But don’t panic… I think our heroes will scrape through in the end. Of course, the end won’t happen for another week. Castle and Beckett are hunting down a cold-blooded killer that uses them to gather information on one of his victims. He’s surprisingly open …
Read More »New online series: “Battleground” – from Hulu
After seeing the first two episodes of this groundbreaking series, I’m quite intrigued. It has a similar feel to the early seasons of “The Office” in the cinéma vérité / docufiction style. Of course, “Battleground” is more drama than comedy, but it isn’t without its bright spots of biting humor. Not a new concept, in that we’re seeing behind the …
Read More »Castle: “The Blue Butterfly”
So I thought last night’s tale of guns, gams and grifts was hitting on all eight. Even though Beckett thought he was just bumpin’ gums, Castle was savvy to the game. Turns out the whole shebang was buzzing around a hood, his dame, and some swanky ice. Sorry, I got into the spirit I guess. Anyway… In this week’s episode of …
