The Alienist Preview: “Psychopathia Sexualis”
[Warning: General spoilers ahead.] Make no mistake. The Alienist has somewhat prided itself on exploring the grim nature of man, but this week’s episode tips toward cruelty, and some confusion on my part about who’s working at the behest of whom. It also genuinely made me wonder if we’ve seen...
Fa-La-La-La the 4th of July With A Week of Hallmark Holiday Films
Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries revisit their most successful time of the year with a ten-day marathon of their library of Christmas movies–Christmas Keepsake Holiday Preview on the former, Gold Crown Christmas Event on the latter. Surprisingly, they’ve kept the Debbie Macomber Christmas films out of the lineup,...
The Knick “Get the Rope”
Well, that escalated quickly. I’m not only talking about the riot. Phinny Sears approaches a black woman he thinks is a prostitute. He wants to convince her to become one of Bunky’s girls so he can get his cut, but both she and her man take offense to Phinny’s proposition....
The Knick “Start Calling Me Dad”
It was only a matter of time before someone learned what Edwards was doing in the basement. It makes sense that a person as dedicated and stubborn as Edwards (and maybe the fact that it’s Thackery is poetic as well), is the one to discover him. It’s interesting that Thack...
The Knick Preview: “Start Calling Me Dad” [VIDEO and PHOTOS + “They Capture the Heat” Recap]
Warning: Spoilers Ahead Let’s talk a little about last week’s episode before we look forward to what’s to come, shall we? I just don’t know what to think about Thackery and Lucy. I enjoyed seeing her teach him to ride a bicycle, but I honestly believe any romantic relationship between...
The Knick “Where’s the Dignityâ€
Algernon Edwards is a very smart man. Not only is he the first “negro†doctor at The Knickerbocker, but he may be the only black doctor in all of New York in 1900. There are some who seem to genuinely admire and/or respect Algernon, but he also has to deal...
The Knick “The Busy Flea”
This show (and every historical drama I watch) always teaches me something about how the world used to be and how we got to where we are today. In the case of The Knick, I’m learning all about surgical procedures at the turn of the century and, quite frankly, some...
The Knick “Mr. Paris Shoes”
Since Dr. Thackery is about as interested in having Dr. Edwards as a deputy as Edwards is in sitting around doing nothing, he decides to make use of himself in other ways. It’s when he’s stitching up a young woman in whatever the equivalent of an ER is in the...
Hallmark Channel Movie Preview: Fir Crazy [VIDEOS and PHOTOS]
[Warning: General plot spoilers.] Hallmark Channel rolls out another debut tonight with Fir Crazy, a thoroughly enjoyable family film about a young woman who learns to appreciate the holiday season when circumstances force her to work at her family’s Manhattan tree lot in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
Heather’s Top 3 Summer Shows: #3 ABC’s Rookie Blue
We’re winding down summer TV and turning the corner to fall, so it’s time to take a look at the shows that brought us through the long hot summer. At number three, Rookie Blue is my first top three pick for summer. We’re in the middle of a ridiculous heat...
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...
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 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...
