Guest Star Goodness: Southland “The Winds”
I haven’t devoted too much time to Lydia and her revolving-door partners but she is one of my favorite characters. Actually, almost all of them have a special place in my heart. I care about these cops a lot. This show makes me realize how much cops do for us and...
Guest Star Goodness: Titus Welliver on The Good Wife
Titus Welliver isn’t just a guest star, he’s a recurring star. It’s a pleasure to see on The Good Wife, even if he’s causing all sorts of trouble for Peter and/or Alicia Florrick. Not only has he formed a strategic alliance with Wendy Scott-Carr, but he’s plotting to get Cary...
Guest Star Goodness: Southland “Code Fourâ€
It’s hard to talk about anything other than Moretta’s untimely death in “Code Four,†but there was a lot of good stuff going on in this episode. Two of the guest stars – who I haven’t seen in a while – were a sight for sore eyes. I’ve really missed...
Guest Star Goodness: Castle “Knockdownâ€
There was so much goodness going on in tonight’s episode. I’m going to take a step back from all the major stuff (Beckett gets one step closer to her mother’s killer; THE KISS; Esposito and Ryan almost die; THE KISS) to focus on faces we don’t see every week on...
Guest Star Goodness: Michael T. Weiss on Blue Bloods
Seriously, y’all. I spent an inordinate amount of time watching The Pretender in first run from 1996 to 2000 on NBC and then in rerun rotation on TNT. Michael T. Weiss was the bomb. When The Pretender ended in 2001, we got one more MOW for TNT, a brief stint on...
Guest Star Goodness: House “Larger Than Life”
It’s not every day Candice Bergen makes a guest appearance on a TV show. It’s been way too long since she’s been on the small screen (I didn’t watch Boston Legal so in my eyes that doesn’t count) and I’ve missed her terribly. It was also good to see Matthew Lillard...
Guest Star Goodness: Castle “Poof, You’re Dead”
For the second week in a row, it took me a while to guess whodunit and that’s because there were so many notable guest stars, any one of them could have been the murderer. Gilles Marini — He’s just one of the guest stars moonlighting on Castle in “Poof, You’re...
Guest Star Goodness: Grey’s Anatomy “Adrift and at Peace”
I do not watch Grey’s Anatomy and, quite frankly, I forgot how good it can be. Back in the day I was all about the show but not so much for quite some time. What made me return for one episode, you ask? Mostly Daniel Sunjata and partly Scott Foley....
Guest Star Goodness: The Good Wife “Bad”
I think we’ve all heard a variation of the following: it’s all about the writing. And clearly the writing on this show is attracting the big guns. I’m impressed every week by the caliber of both guest and recurring stars but this past week has been the most impressive so...
Deja View: Life Unexpected’s Emma Caulfield
Let me start off with an admission: I’m not fully up-to-date on Life Unexpected. But I don’t have to be to discuss the lovely and wonderful Emma Caulfield In the episode I watched last night “Parents Unemployed,†we meet a somewhat uptight and extremely disapproving Emma Bradshaw. Baz’s father sets...

Let’s Talk About Will Trent
[Spoilers for “The Blank Expanse of Nothing”] It’s been a minute since I’ve had a good, old-fashioned rant about a TV series, so I’m overdue. If you’ve followed me on IG the last few years (hi!), you know that I yell often and loud about my love for Will Trent....
Tim Rozon Looks Back on SurrealEstate
[Warning: All the spoilers ahead.] To close out our SurrealEstate coverage (for now), I chatted with Tim Rozon about Season 3 and getting the band back together. For the third season, production moved from Newfoundland to Ottawa, and Rozon was ready to dive back in. “We were in a...
George R. Olson Unpacks SurrealEstate Season 3
[Warning: ALL the spoilers ahead.] In case you missed the news last week, SurrealEstate has concluded with its third season, which aired last summer. On Friday, I spoke with series creator George R. Olson and series star Tim Rozon about saying goodbye to the show. You can read that piece...
George R. Olson and Tim Rozon Share Their Gratitude for SurrealEstate’s Run
Since SurrealEstate wrapped its third season six months ago, I’ve checked about once a week to see whether there was any news on cancelled or renewed. As long as there was no decision, there was still hope for a fourth season. This week, series creator George R. Olson let the...
Hulu’s Paradise S1 Weaves Past and Present to Unravel a Murder
One of the nice things about the symbiosis of the entertainment conglomerates is that sometimes streaming shows make their way over to linear outlets. Case in point: ABC has given Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building a primetime slot (after of course tweaking the language for FCC regs) during its...
Scott McCord Talks About Victor’s Expanding World in From Season 3
Closing out our From Season 3 coverage (which you can find here), in the second part of my conversation with Scott McCord, we talk about Victor’s new friendship with Sara, reconnecting with Tabitha, and what might be next for Victor when Season 4 returns in 2026. As we’ve talked about...
Dennis Heaton Talks Murder in a Small Town
Murder in a Small Town wraps its first season Tuesday night on FOX in the US and Wednesday night on Global TV in Canada. For US viewers, it’s been a neat addition to the usual FOX fare to have a slower-paced, small-town murder mystery with a parade of CdnTV peeps...
Harold Perrineau Talks From Season 3
[Warning: Includes spoilers for the Season 3 finale.] How are you doing, FROMily? That finale was A LOT. Thankfully we know we’re going to get more of this story, and you have a year and change to work on your Venn diagram deciphering the OMG WTFery of it all. Last...
Scott McCord Talks From Season 3
From the jump (pun intended), I’ve been a staunch advocate of Victor (and Scott McCord, who plays him), and this season, he’s been put through it. On the heels of sending Tabitha off into the unknown and having her return with his father, he unearths the long-suppressed memory that as...
Corteon Moore Talks From Season 3
From has always been really good about delighting us with mix-and-match character pairings, and this season, we’ve seen Jade and Tabitha, Sara and Victor, Henry and Victor, and Kenny and Acosta team up. As Ellis, Corteon Moore has spent a chunk of time this season paired up with Pegah Ghafoori...
What They Said: Three Revealing Conversations from Survivor’s Remorse “Closure”
WARNING: Spoilers for Survivor’s Remorse “Closure” The latest episode of Starz’s Survivor’s Remorse featured conversations that showed characters really digging deep into their thoughts, emotions and motivations.
Two Takes: The Catch “The Knock-Off”
Who can you trust? If this episode of The Catch was any indication, the answer is just about nobody. Betrayal was running rampant as Felicity (Shivani Ghai) arose from the dead to seduce-con Margot, Gretchen (Maria Thayer, Gotham, The Mindy Project) played gold-hearted Alice 2.0 before swindling Ethan, Tessa jumped...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Supergirl “Worlds Finest”
Oh, Supergirl. That ending was cold. But I can’t hate on you because the latest episode has quickly become one of my favorites.
What Lucifer Said: Favorite quotes from Supernatural “O Brother, Where Art Thou?”
Supernatural episodes are almost always funny but thanks to the dialogue and a certain man speaking said dialogue, I laughed a lot during “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” You know, when I wasn’t busy fearing for Sam’s life or wondering what in the world was going on with Dean and...
3 Moments of Goodness from Brooklyn Nine-Nine “Johnny and Dora”
The most satisfying part of this season’s finale has to the Jake and Amy kiss. Well, they kiss three times but the last one is the best one — and it means something. The Charles and Rosa dynamic was also great. I love how she’s convinced he doesn’t know anything...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Supernatural “Angel Heart”
Okay, that was my favorite of all the Claire episodes. In the beginning I think this arc was a bit shaky, to be honest. But I think it ended strong and that’s thanks to the chemistry between the actors as well as the strength of the writing, courtesy of Robbie...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from New Girl “Landline”
Jess has a ladyboner for a new teacher, with a pretty inappropriate last name. I approve. Coach, ever the player, gets in trouble at school for dating (I’m using the term euphemistically here) two school employees at the same time. And Nick imagines himself a sort of secretary when they...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from The Vampire Diaries “I’ll Remember”
Season 5 Episode 1: “I’ll Remember” Writer: Caroline Dries This is odd. It’s an episode of The Vampire Diaries and there’s only one favorite quote from Damon. Of course, he was only in one scene. There are a few Hallucination!Damon quotes included though. What were some of your favorite quotes...
What They Said: Favorite Quotes from Brooklyn Nine-Nine “Undercover”
Before we get to my favorite quotes from the episode – and there are kind of a lot, so prepare yourself, let’s take a quick look at what when down in this season 2 premiere. Jake’s back from his undercover assignment and apparently he didn’t miss that much while he...
