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

“Home” – Recap and Review

This week’s “Game of Thrones” episode was hot to death. The Three Eyed Raven’s Cave We open to an all-grown-up Bran Stark, who’s warging out in the Three Eyed Raven’s cave.  He psychically travels to Winterfell and sees his father, aunt and uncles when they were all still children, and before the manor was ruined by sadistic assholes.  We finally get to see what Lyanna … Continue reading “Home” – 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

“Not In Scotland Anymore” – Recap and Review

What’s up, y’all?  For those of you that don’t know, I’m a HUGE fan of the “Outlander” TV series.  My mom became addicted to the show first, and I decided to give it a chance when I logged onto to my VUDU account one faithful night and saw that they were giving away the first episode of the first season for free.  I’ve been hooked … Continue reading “Not In Scotland Anymore” – Recap and Review

UPDATE: Freda Comes Closer to Finding Her Father’s Killer

Okay…that title is misleading.  Very misleading.  I just thought it sounded cool.  In truth, Freda hasn’t come closer to figuring out who killed her father.  As a matter of fact, that child is completely clueless.  However…(SPOILER ALERT!!!) Cookie recently learned who Freda’s dad was, and it’s now becoming an actual conflict on the show.  Gone are the days when Freda and Lucious would be in … Continue reading UPDATE: Freda Comes Closer to Finding Her Father’s Killer

“Empire” Ain’t What It Used to Be

From the time the very first episode aired, I have been hooked on “Empire.”  The first season was so mesmerizing.  A crooked music mogul, an ex-wife looking for her fair share of the dynasty she helped create, all kinds of family and business drama going on within the home as well as the company—what was not to love?  One of the things I really enjoyed … Continue reading “Empire” Ain’t What It Used to Be
