Penny Dreadful Season 2 Premiere Preview: “Fresh Hell”
[Warning: General spoilers ahead.] Penny Dreadful roars back tonight, and it pulls no punches with a balls-out introduction (or re-introduction) to our new villain, who’s gunning for Vanessa (again) because last season’s efforts failed. I’m not going to lie, that part is a little disappointing. On the upside, the gang’s all...
Get With the Program: The CW’s Reign
Y’all know I have a documented history of binge-watching new shows. This fall, Witches of East End hooked me after a marathon two-day catch up. Over the holidays, I cleared my DVR of the first eight episodes of Reign, and I have to say, it might be a keeper.
Get With the Program: Lifetime’s Witches of East End
Full disclosure: I was gung ho to watch this when it premiered and then just couldn’t get sat down in front of it in real-time. So I banked them on the DVR and then marathoned the first six episodes last weekend and finally got caught up to watch them same...
Get With the Program: AMC’s Hell on Wheels
This was one I fully meant to watch last fall and then that got blown straight to hell (pun intended). Thanks to my friendly corner Redbox kiosk, I immersed myself in the first five episodes over two days and then the next five over three days and a) it’s about...
Get With the Program: ABC’s Once Upon a Time
The deck was stacked fairly high in favor of me liking this show–Vancouver locale, Jane Espenson/Liz Tigelaar pedigree, fairy tales–if and when I could make the time to sit my butt down and watch it. Well, today we had a lovely Texas winter cold front rain day, just perfect for...
Get With the Program: Merlin Seasons 1 and 2
I had heard a few friends talk about this show. I thought I knew a lot about the Arthurian legend so I figured I wouldn’t find Merlin that interesting. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Not only is it vastly superior to another recent series about this time and place...
Get with the Program: Syfy’s Eureka
Even though I’ve been aware of Eureka since its inception — and had even watched an episode here or there — I never made the Syfy series a permanent part of my TV viewing lineup…until now. I recently Got with the Program and watched the first half of Season 4...
Get With the Program: Men of a Certain Age, Season One
We’re not sure why we never gave this show a chance. Perhaps we’re the wrong demo, perhaps we missed the promos. We watch TNT and enjoy quite a few of the shows (namely the Supernatural repeats, Rizzoli and Isles, The Closer, and Leverage) so we’re not sure why we didn’t think this show was for us. It could be that...
Get With the Program: Blue Bloods
So I spent the past two weekends catching up on Blue Bloods. Yes, I had every single episode on my DVR. How did I know it would be worth my time? I didn’t but with a cast like Tom Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg, and Bridget Moynahan I knew I had to...
Get with the Program: Friday Night Lights, Season 4
I know Friday Night Lights fans everywhere are currently dealing with the loss of this show that has continually blown them away for the last few years. Since I didn’t get hooked until somewhat recently, I’m a little bit behind. I’m just now starting Season Five. In my first “Get...

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

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...

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”
