Comic Con 2014: CourtneyK spends time with the VIKINGS of The History Channel

I had the marvelous pleasure of participating in the VIKINGS press roundtables at San Diego Comic Con 2014. Travis Fimmel (Ragnar Lothbrok), Clive Standen (Rollo Lothbrok), Katheryn Winnick (Lagertha), Alexander Ludwig (Bjorn “Ironside” Lothbrok), Michael Hirst (creator/writer) were all in attendance. Fresh off the set actually! Fimmel and Standen had their beard-hair in full effect, and Fimmel and Ludwig both were sporting their respective characters signature ‘crazy blonde warrior’ haircuts. I had the feeling if the two of them walked

Quick Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS is back!!!

PLL!! IT’SBACK!!IT’SBACK!!IT’SBACK!! *ahem* I’m excited!! Pretty Little Liars is back for the Season 5 premiere tonight!! Season 4 was…well it was kind of all over the place. Aria losing her common sense and going on benders, finding out that Ezra has/had more to do with Alison than any of us originally thought, Hanna and Emily having personal dramas, and don’t get me started on Spencer’s sudden “relapse” into a drug addiction that everyone conveniently decided never to discuss again. I

WonderCon 2014: Jason Rothenberg gives us some scoop on THE 100!

The 100 has become quite the hit over the past few weeks; combination of Sci-Fi and Survivalist-style show that showcases the complexities of morality, realistic decisions, big picture problems and human relationships without dumbing things down, this show doesn’t pull punches, and it’s not afraid to get gritty! But don’t make the mistake of calling it a Teen Love Triangle Drama! Executive Producer, Jason Rothenberg: JR: My answer about that is: obviously it’s going to complicate things, but the show

WonderCon 2014: The cast and producers of THE 100 preview all new episodes of the show!

CourtneyK headed to WonderCon in Anaheim over the weekend and spent some time chatting with the cast of THE 100 talking about new episodes and what’s next for the show. Look for some more details and her interview with Isaiah Washington later this week, but in the meantime, check out what happened when she got some of our favorites on video!

CourtneyK is bidding a not-so-fond farewell to RAVENSWOOD

RAVENSWOOD: I tried… I’m a full-on PRETTY LITTLE LIARS fan, it’s no secret. The spin-off RAVENSWOOD has had 3 episodes and….I’m out. I wanted to like it. I thought it had potential, but in the end, I just can’t. For a split second, I was on board. I enjoy Tyler Blackburn’s Caleb (originated on PLL), he’s quippy and I dig it. But his “rescue/run outside before thinking” and “wandering off alone” traits are getting old.

After-Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “Grave New World”

Name of the Episode: Grave New World Beware – the follow contains spoilers!!! I’m going to keep this short. Much to my dismay, instead of having a Liars-centric episode, it felt like half of the episode was dedicated to the new crossover show, Ravenswood. Hrmmmm. First of all, I was SO EXCITED to watch the special, after the big reveal at season finale; Ezra walking into the A Den and throwing a fit, then the A-Dude creepily staring into the

Quick Take: SCANDAL is back TONIGHT!!!

SCANDAL comes back TONIGHT (10/9c on ABC)!! I’ve been SO EXCITED for this premiere and with an episode titled “It’s Handled” can you blame me??? Last season all the poo hit all the fans for Olivia Pope and her Gladiators in suits. *SPOILER ALERT if you haven’t watched Season 1 & 2 yet, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?? GO WATCH IT!! Via whatever method you can!! Then come back here and read/comment* The press knows about Olivia and President Fitzgerald.

SUPER CUTE! Awkwardness abounds and I LOVE it! Sort of mash up of Never Been Kissed and Ugly Betty and sillified

CourtneyK – First Impression: Hate the concept What happens when unhappy people are too self-centered and short sighted to

Double Take: In which CourtneyK and Amrie disagree slightly about ABC’s BACK IN THE GAME

The Double Takes are back this season as Amrie and I offer up our opinions of some new fall shows without knowing what the other is thinking. In most cases this season, it seems we tend to disagree ha!  Today’s DT is about ABC’s BACK IN THE GAME, starring James Caan, Maggie Lawson, and a bunch of charming little kids.   CourtneyK – First Impression: It wasn’t terrible. I actually kinda liked it. Divorced Single Mom (Lawson) with father issues
