“Best Laid Schemes…” – Recap and Review

This last episode starts off with Jamie still brooding over not being able kill Black Jack.  Murtagh, on the other hand, is still gung ho over the now cancelled duel.  He’s settin’ up times for Jamie to practice his swordfighting and what have you, so y’all can imagine how disappointed he is when Jamie tells him that the duel’s been called off.  Murtagh actually tells … Continue reading “Best Laid Schemes…” – Recap and Review

“Oathbreaker” – Recap and Review

The Wall Ser Davos must’ve thought deep down that bringing Jon back was a bit farfetched, because as soon as Jon begins breathing and sits up, he’s genuinely shocked.  Jon’s equally shocked that he’s alive, as he remembers Olly stabbing him in the heart (the fact that Olly delivered the death strike, and in the heart no less, makes the situation even sadder).  Melisandre rushes … Continue reading “Oathbreaker” – Recap and Review

Why “Underground” Is a Force To Be Reckoned With

If some of you remember, in my very first post, I mentioned that nowadays I get more excited to see “Underground” on Wednesday nights than “Empire.”  Don’t get me wrong, “Empire” still entertains me, despite the fact that it’s not quite the show it once was.  The only difference is, now “Empire” can be DVR’ed if I have to do something when 9:00 PM rolls … Continue reading Why “Underground” Is a Force To Be Reckoned With

“Untimely Resurrection” – Recap and Review

We pick up right where we left off last week.  The house is in shambles from the fight that broke out.  It turns out the g‘darmes TFF summoned actually were the cops, and they arrested everyone, including Jamie (where I come from, the Comte would be known as a “snitch bitch”).  Claire and Fergus sat up all night waiting for him to return.  When Jamie … Continue reading “Untimely Resurrection” – Recap and Review

“La Dame Blanche” – Recap and Review

Praise Jesus.  This episode was actually good.  Let’s do this. The show begins with Jamie and Monsieur Duvernay playing what appears to be another boring game of chess, when the minister asks Jamie what he plans on naming the baby.  He and Claire–who’s watching the game—have a chuckle worthy disagreement over what to name the baby if it’s a boy when who shows up?  Le … Continue reading “La Dame Blanche” – Recap and Review

“The Red Woman” – Recap and Review

Like half the world’s population, I couldn’t wait for April 24th to get here…because “Game of Thrones” would be back on the air.  I didn’t understand all the hoopla for the show until last summer.  I’ve always been in love with Jason Momoa, and when I learned that he played the sexy Dothraki warlord Khal Drogo in the first season of the show, it piqued … Continue reading “The Red Woman” – Recap and Review

“Useful Occupations and Deceptions” – Recap and Review

*Sigh*  Let’s just jump right into this. So…the Frasers are still in Paris, but the couple isn’t having too much fun in the City of Light.  Jamie spends his days and nights rubbing elbows with Monsieur Duvernay and the crazy ass “Bonny” Prince Charles trying to bring down the Rebellion, whereas Claire spends her days and nights not doing a damn thing but sitting around … Continue reading “Useful Occupations and Deceptions” – Recap and Review
