My Take On…FOREVER on ABC

Tonight on ABC, catch the “sneak peek” of FOREVER, one of my top picks for the new season, before it moves to its home at 10/9c on Tuesday nights. Ioan Gruffudd plays Dr Henry Morgan, a NYC medical examiner who has died hundreds of deaths, yet none of them have stuck.  He uses his position in the morgue to examine death to try to figure out how or why exactly he is immortal, and in doing so, helps solve the

Comic Con 2014: Donal Logue previews GOTHAM and playing Harvey Bullock

At Comic Con 2014, I was a part of the round tables in the room for GOTHAM, which premieres tonight on FOX at 8/7c before the bonkers SLEEPY HOLLOW season 2 return! The show is a prequel of sorts to the Batman story we’re all fairly familiar with – this time, we focus on Commissioner James Gordon, back when he just got his Detective Shield, and his partner Harvey Bullock (played with relish by Donal Logue). Check out the above

Quick Take: SLEEPY HOLLOW S2 starts fast, doesn’t slow down

I sat down to watch SLEEPY HOLLOW’s second season premiere today, thinking I could multil-task, get other stuff done, maybe minimize the window and handle other things.  Boy, was I wrong!  From start to finish, the episode held my attention and I found myself not able to breathe, relax, and/or sit back in my chair as the action started at minute one and didn’t let up until the credits started rolling at the end. When we left the gang, Abbie

My Take On…MADAM SECRETARY on CBS

Tonight on CBS (8:30/7:30c depending on football, and re-airing at 10:30/9:30c), the all new drama MADAM SECRETARY premieres.  Téa Leoni stars as Elizabeth McCord, a woman who, due to a history with the President from her days in the CIA (she left for ethical reasons), finds herself as the surprising new Secretary of State for the United States. As she struggles to find her footing among the more seasoned members of the cabinet and inner circle, she also has to find

My Take On…THE GOOD WIFE Season 6 premiere

Full disclosure? I’m so tempted to just type “I love THE GOOD WIFE more than mostly everything on TV,” as my review of the Season 6 premiere (Sunday at 9:30/8:30c on CBS), and leave it at that.  That’s how much I love it and the premiere, which I’ve been describing to people as “weird/good” because the story goes so far in a direction I didn’t think it ever would that it felt uncomfortable in a great way. We pick right

Quick Take: RED BAND SOCIETY on FOX

I don’t dislike RED BAND SOCIETY.  Not fully.  I liked Octavia Spencer very much.  And Dave Annable is great and beautiful with that salt-and-pepper hair going on.  And I really like everything regarding Thomas Ian Nicholas and Wilson Cruz and Griffin Dunne.  Are you sensing a theme yet?  Because therein lies the problem – I should like at least something related to the kids in the show that make up 60-70% of the cast and story.  But I didn’t.  Nothing

My Take On….THE MYSTERIES OF LAURA on NBC

I struggled with what words to use to describe my feelings for THE MYSTERIES OF LAURA, premiering tonight on NBC after a special two hour AMERICA’S GOT TALENT finale (though, you wouldn’t know that unless you paid attention to the annoying and silent pop up things that appear during other shows, since NBC itself keeps saying it premieres NEXT week on 9/24…but I digress).  This image is all I could come up with**: **What I’m really trying to say is
