Double Take: In which CourtneyK and Amrie are in rare agreement about ABC’s LUCKY 7

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! However, this next DT is one about which we DEFINITELY do agree – LUCKY 7 on ABC. LUCKY 7 tells the story of a ragtag bunch of folks that work at a run down gas station / car shop.  Their lives

After-Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “Now You See Me, Now You Don’t”

Name of the Episode: Now You See Me, Now You Don’t Beware – the follow contains spoilers!!! Initial reaction: I NEED A MINUTE!!! Ok, I’m ok. I’m not ok, but SERIOUSLY, this finale….I. CAN’T! That was the craziest, most intense episode! And it was the Season FINALE??? How am I supposed to wait until the Halloween Episode?!?!!? First thing: creepy Magic Eight Balls…seriously? There was NO NEED for that. That was kinda dumb. It didn’t have as dramatic an effect

After-Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “Bring Down the Hoe”

Name of the Episode: Bring Down the Hoe Beware – the follow contains spoilers!!! This show!!! I can’t. I love it! Ok, how come all the detectives/cops/teachers/principals etc. keep forgetting that these girls are minors?? Detective WhatsHerFace (Tanner) walked right up and sat down, bold as brass! Spilling details from an active investigation?? Inappropriate! Uh, who is that random dude (I remember him from Bones!)? And HELLO MASS FUNDS in Hanna’s locker! Hanna’s always getting mass quantities of money! How

After-Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “The Mirror Has Three Faces”

Name of the Episode: The Mirror Has Three Faces Beware – the follow contains spoilers!!! Boy oh boy was this an episode not to miss!! Let’s dig in! First off, recapping last weeks’ ep with Jenna in the lake?? YIKES! Next, Mrs. Dilaurentis inviting Emily and her mother to stay in her house, in Alison’s old room??? SO CREEPY! That’s a “Thanks but no thanks” moment for me. I understand they needed Emily to do some hunting around, but let’s

After-Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “The Guilty Girl’s Handbook”

Name of the Episode: The Guilty Girl’s Handbook Beware – the follow contains spoilers!!! …wait a Mona. What just happened? It’s been a few episodes, but After Take is back on, y’all. We’ve had LOTS to discuss, so let’s shall we? Toby and Caleb have become Rosewood’s Dynamic Duo, they uncovered more in one episode than the Rosewood P.D. ever has. (Poor Rosewood P.D.) And all evidence points to CeCe Drake. I never liked her. Hanna’s Mom being arrested was

After-Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “Cat’s Cradle”

Name of the Episode: Cat’s Cradle Beware – the follow contains spoilers!!! I have a quick question, Does anybody trust this new Jake guy?? Cuz I don’t. Like, a LOT. He’s creeping me out. I appreciate the more appropriate love interest for Aria, but he is seeming more manipulative and shady than I’d care him to be. Maybe I just have trust issues when it comes to teeny tiny Aria. Hanna is going to have a heart attack. The suspense

After-Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “A is for A-L-I-V-E”

I’m trying out a new thing, recapping what I think are important parts of the episode. Feel free to chime in with comments below! Name of the Episode: A is for A-L-I-V-E Let’s talk about that for a second, WHAT THE WHAT??? In the last episode all the Liars (Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer), including the one we love to hate (Mona) all survived the Lodge fire only to find the mud encrusted police cruiser with its light a-flashing away.

CourtneyK offers a Quick Take refresher on SCANDAL to get pumped for an all new episode!

IT. HAS. BEEN FORREEEEVVVVER!! (Technically, a few weeks. But WEEKS!!!)  And I have been absolutely craving a new episode of SCANDAL! Week after week, this Shonda Rimes gem has delivered. Never ONCE disappointing. Last time, we saw Olivia freaking out as the slow realization that her hunky new love interest (Helloooo Scott Foley you twisted fella you!) has been spying on her. (Did anyone else shriek at the screen alongside her???) Yes yes, he was doing it on the orders

WonderCon 2013: CourtneyK Focuses on ARROW

The action packed comic based show ARROW on the CW has become a hit, much to my giddy delight! The showcasing of the Green Arrow character aside, there’s some great character development in the supporting cast. Recently I was privileged enough to participate in the Press Round Table for ARROW at WonderCon 2013 in Anaheim, California. A conversation with Willa Holland (Thea Queen), Colin Donnell (Tommy Merlyn), Paul Blackthorne (Det. Quentin Lance) and Executive Producer Marc Guggenheim? DON’T MIND IF
