Two Takes: Person of Interest “Truth Be Told”
Did you see the new opening credits? If not, go back and re-watch immediately. We love that we get both perspectives now — what both the Machine and Samaritan are doing. But more than that, since it seems like the Machine is no longer glitching — more on that later…
The Following “Love Hurts”
Last week’s review ended with a commentary on adultery and how careless it was for Joe (James Purefoy) to have slept with Emma (Valorie Curry). Ironically, this week’s episode is centered on infidelity, focusing not only on Joe and Emma but also between Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon) and Claire Matthews…
The Following “Welcome Home”
Last week’s episode was probably the absolute best of the series thus far. With Carroll’s (James Purefoy) escape from prison, the show begins focusing on the cult, instead of highlighting a particular serial killer each week, which was a welcome change. This continues with tonight’s episode. For Carroll, everything is…
FOX’s The Following Renewed for Second Season!
Well, it’s official, guys! The Following has been renewed for a 2nd season, as was announced today by Kevin Reilly, Chairman of Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company. “From the very beginning, we felt Kevin Williamson and Marcos Siega had created a high-quality, edge-of-your-seat drama that could break from the pack, and it…
The Following “The Fall”
When I first began watching The Following, I had always imagined that the plot was going to be something more than just a story of a group of naïve, mesmerized fans of Joe Carroll (James Purefoy). In fact, the Executive Producers promised as much. However, so far and especially with…
The Following “The Siege”
As was mentioned in my review last week, one of the big problems with cults is that the students need regular guidance from the teacher or “masterâ€. Ever since Joe Carroll had been re-captured, his normal visiting and mail privileges have been revoked, and so, his followers are pretty…
The Following “Mad Love”
Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon) is not one to reveal much about his personal or family life at all. He strikes me as a very private person, and it hadn’t surprised me that even after three episodes, we still know next to nothing about this reclusive former FBI agent. Fortunately for…
The Following “The Poet’s Fire”
The old saying is “Revenge is a dish that is best served coldâ€. That’s not so in tonight’s episode of The Following. In “The Poet’s Fireâ€, revenge is the theme, but the method is by fire. Like a good deal of the viewers, I was caught a little off-guard by…
Person of Interest “Dead Reckoning”
Well, the good news from tonight’s episode of Person of Interest is that we finally get Reese (Jim Caviezal) back after being kidnapped by his former partner, Cara Stanton (Annie Parisse). The bad news is another “character†is now in grave danger – The Machine. And, unless Finch (Michael Emerson)…
The Following “The Second Act”
In the review of last week’s premiere of The Following, we declared James Purefoy the star of this fantastic new drama. But, that was only the first act. Being that the drama is focused on Poe-obsessed serial killer, Joe Carroll, of course he was going to get center-stage in the…
Thank Me Later: Will Trent
[Warning: spoilers ahead.] I’m on record as loving and losing shows over at ABC so I’m usually very reticent to pick something up on the network until it’s been renewed, and I seriously hope I’m not jinxing it, but I took a chance on the deeply odd and very sweet…

What They Said: Top 4 Quotable Moments from Black Sails “XXIII”
The dialogue in “XXIII” is phenomenal. It’s always a fun ride when Black Sails carries its viewers along without giving them the chance to catch their breath. When an episode moves at this unforgiving pace, there is no chance for a breather nor is there a respite from the information…

What They Said: The Flash, “Legends Of Today” and Arrow, “Legends Of Yesterday”
