Game of Thrones ~ 4/14/13

I don’t know what you mean that Daenerys was on for 30 seconds. She had a lot of air time if you ask me and I was so hoping she new the the language so she knew what that fool was saying about her. Barristan and Jorah got their beads read by her. She is still my all time favorite character and I hope that giving the largest dragon doesn’t hurt her in the long run. Did you notice the smile on Missandei’s face when she told her that they aren’t men? She could be a good character. I’m so glad that Jamie got his hand cut off. He’s a bastard and I couldn’t be more glad that it happened especially after what he did to Bran. Another one of my favorite character’s is Melisandre. She is so controlling over Stannis and I like that. Loved loved loved Podrick Payne, Hot Pie, Gilly and Sam. I wonder if Gilly gave birth to Sam’s son? Hot Pie and his baking and giving Arya that baked direwolf. So awesome and Podrick….so great. I hope we find out why the whores didn’t take the money LOL Tyrion was good wanting to know all and he was good when he moved the chair in his fathers meeting. He’s another fav. I thought it a pretty good episode.

Lagertha was the absolute best when she ruled in favor of the pregnant woman and threatened her husband. I thought that was pretty good. And then her taking on Siggy, who I think is doing this as a plot with Rollo to keep close to the family, and having her son. Good that they aren’t dragging this along. When Rollo got baptized and he kept pulling back you could get the feel why. There worlds are so different. And then him telling Loki that he didn’t take it seriously after Loki told him he made the Gods mad. I think Loki is so right and Rollo is in for it. I like how Ragnar bowed during the baptismal and then the rest of the gang did as well. The king better watch out. Don’t mess with Ragnar. Give him a cart with no gold and then killing the king’s brother. It’s going to be a good battle between the king and Ragnar. I think that could be a symbolism as to what’s going to happen between him and Rollo. Looks like Athelstan gives up his Christianity next week. Love this show.

DaVinci’s Demons ~ 4/12/13

written by Thom - April 11th, 2013 at 7:14 pm

I’m not going to even pretend to know all the characters in this series yet and I will tell you there are only 8 episodes in this first season. I like the magical aspect this takes on but it was hard to tell who is on whose side and keep all the names straight. I watched this damn show twice before writing this. I like the Turk the best and new the minute they showed the hooded figure being lead to the pope that it was Lucrezia. She’s going to be evil during all of this I’m sure. It is no Spartacus that’s for sure and I remember watching the very first episode of Spartacus and falling immediately into it but this show I’m not so sure. I will give it the rest of the 7 episodes however. Tons happened and Leo is something else. He exudes intelligence. It was sort of fun to watch I will say with all the magic and inventions going on it could be good but time will tell. By the way, The Borgias premieres tomorrow night on Showtime. It’s excellent.

Spartacus: War of the Damned ~ 4/12/13 (Series Finale)

written by Thom - April 11th, 2013 at 7:12 pm

To me there isn’t very much to say about this ending except for Gratitude. I loved it when they brought back Oenomaus when Gannicus thought of him. I have to say they kept Spartacus true to his word for the entire series. He was true to his wife Sura through it all and he died a free man. He never deviated one bit from his character and that I truly enjoyed. He was also right in telling Crassus about Kore and I think that he still loved her even though he had her killed. It was pretty cool also when Castus told Agron while in Nasirs arms that he only loved Agron. It sort of took me by surprise that those two lived while the more major players all died. I think in the long run we knew Spartacus would die and it was sad but I have to say I was hoping that Spartacus would kill him when he fell off the little cliff. It was an interesting talk between the two of them earlier and I think they both had respect for each other. I loved how they showed all the characters at the end of the show. One of the best series ever on TV.

Bates Motel ~ 4/8/13

written by Thom - April 5th, 2013 at 12:44 pm

I’m so glad that Norman came clean with Dylan and I think that he is going to be around on the show for a while. I hope they build on their relationship and I so wanted him to tell Norma he knows what she did. I can’t believe they arrested her and I am so wanting to see what Zack has to do with it all. I can’t figure if he is just using her or not and am anxious to see what evidence they have that she could be arrested. I liked the love scene with Bradley and Norman. Dylan was so right that he needs to be a teenager and just go out and get laid. Zack certainly is up to something with that Asian girl and the basement being cleaned up. Dylan is becoming one of my favorites on this show just because of his smugness and kiss my ass attitude. I thought for sure that the sheriff was going to follow Norma after she left the station. Maybe that’s why he arrested her. She sure did loose it big time on the gate. Excellent show again this week.

Dallas ~ 4/8/13

written by Thom - April 5th, 2013 at 12:43 pm

LOL about Pamela. I so agree with you. They hid her very well and of course they said she was badly burned so if Victoria Principal never comes back doesn’t want to come back it’ll be someone else. I think that Cliff would need old Pam to vote with him and I think right now the Ewings are counting on the fact that she isn’t communicating with Cliff. Other than that I agree with you that 1/3 share wouldn’t help them very much. Pamela and John Ross are a match made in heaven. I’m so glad that she finally listened to him and came around. If they all think that Pamela isn’t the one they can trust then they need to take a close look at Elena. She’s the one doing all the lying and helping Drew. I don’t see a way out of this either for him and can’t figure out what they are going to do with him. I doubt they will kill him but I don’t know. I actually felt a little twinge of pain for Emma when she was with Harris at his house. I’m glad that Annie didn’t want to bail her out. I wonder what Bobby hid from John Ross under the book when he came in to his office at the house. You are so right about the walk that Bobby did at the end of the show. Was perfect. Lots of twists and turns and yes it’s season ending next week but that’s one thing I like about these other networks. No repeats and very few weeks skipped and you don’t have to suffer with them for 9 months LOL They get them over and done with. Should be a good one next week.

Game of Thrones ~ 4/7/13

written by Thom - April 5th, 2013 at 12:42 pm

If it weren’t for Arya, Bran and Theon being on the show this week I would have bithed up a storm because Daenerys wasn’t on the show. But it was good to see them all. I’m so glad that Theon is being tortured but I can’t figure out by who and let’s hear it for Yara for sending the sneak where ever he is to let him know she’s going to free him. I so like Arya, Gendry and Hot Pie. She isn’t backing down from anything and I don’t think ever will. I hope we see more of those Brotherhood Without Banners. I like that group myself. And wouldn’t you know they would get The Hound and he would out Arya. She’ll hold her own I’m sure of it and with him being nice to Sansa well I think Arya will end up okay in this current situation. So Bran is a warg. That’s so sort of the theme of the show because they Orell was introduced as well. Since I’m here I might as well talk about Catelyn talking about Jon Snow and how she blames herself. I thought that was an excellent scene in the show. Back to Bran I think the two new additions to their little group, Jojen and Meera. I’m anxious to see about this warg thing as well. I liked how Orell eyes were all white when he was out looking. The story about the crow and Bran was excellent. Margaery’s grandmother, Olenna, is something else. I’m hoping she’s on a lot more. What a character and I’m glad that Sansa opened up to her and then Margaery playing that arrow stuff with that shit hole Joffery. Loved the sword fight between Brienne and Jamie but now that Robb Stark’s men captured them I wonder what’s going to happen. Shae getting all jealous of Tyrion and making him say all those things about her being the only one. I loved it. Great show this week yet again.

Vikings ~ 4/7/13

I sure as hell didn’t see the death of Haraldsen coming. I thought he was long for this show but I guess not. Ragnar is my favorite male lead in any series we watch now. I gotta say I love how he is just totally fearless. Sure didn’t take Siggy long at all to name him the new Earl and Ragnar best watch out for Rollo because he want’s to be Earl so bad he can’t see straight. He and Siggy are going to be a pain in Ragnar and Lagertha’s side. I guess we aren’t suppose to wonder if Lagertha bambino is fathered by Rangar or the guy that raped her in England, or at least tried to. I really like Loki and how odd he is. When he just laughs when it’s all serious just kills me. Athelstan is another favorite character of mine and I hope he and Ragnar bond well together and that Ragnar will always look out for him. The explanation of Ragnarok, how the world ends, was fantastic. They did that perfectly and it’s interesting to watch Athelstan get more acquainted with this society. Bjorn sure does let him know his place all the time and I like how Ragnar says no and the reason is because he’s his father and he told him no. Looks like a big battle in England next week. Such a good show. Only three episodes left the season, but a least we know it was picked up for season 2.

Grimm ~ 4/15/13

I have to say that Juliette is driving me nuts as well. If she is seeing all these visions of Nick why the hell doesn’t she just get back together with him. I’m sure it’s her way of getting her memory back to find out that Nick is a Grimm but get on with it. And what purpose did the Spanish chick serve? I didn’t get that. When this trial first started I thought what the hell is that brown mist. LOL I loved that he ate toads and yes I did see the breath freshener and I loved it when Monroe was chasing after that damn toad. Too funny. One good thing about this episode that was pretty good was it wasn’t a case that Nick and Hank were working on. I loved it that Renards brother realized that Adlind was glowing. I can’t wait to see who the papa is. She lost her powers when she had it out with Nick last year. I’m sure she is going to get them back. I’m liking how slow they are taking it with her and the keys and royalty. I think that is going to be what this series is all about so they need to take it along at a slow pace. It is good when they bring back characters from previous episodes and they so keep them in character. So good, even bringing Nick’s mom back just via a message. Very good.

Spartacus: War of the Damed ~ 4/5/13

written by Thom - April 1st, 2013 at 9:57 am

What an excellent episode. I loved it how all of them got to fight a Roman but I so wanted Naevia to be the one to kill Tiberius with the same sword that did in Crixus. But at least that little shit is dead and at the hands of Kore. I can’t wait to see what Crassus actually does to her. He’s off to a mean start by having her call him dominus. When they put Agron on the cross I thought he was so dead, but I also thought that last episode. He sure is a strong guy but I’m so glad he and Nasir are together. I feel for Naevia the most actually. When she had Crixus’ head and then the funeral at the end was very heart wrenching especially when she lit the fire and then they all started calling out all the dead slaves. So very good. I still can’t figure out Caesar as to whose side he is really on. Gannicus sure did have a little part actually but I must say how they showed him and Spartacus killing those Romans. So much blood and gore but I really enjoyed it. I’m going to miss this show a great deal. Next week it all comes to an end and I guess in real life Spartacus’ body was never found so it’s going to be interesting how they play it out. Davinci’s Demons is on right after next weeks show so don’t forget to set up your VCR. Off to work. Have a good weekend.

Person of Interest ~ 4/4/13

written by Thom - April 1st, 2013 at 9:56 am

I just love how they keep bringing back these characters that have been such an important part of the show. I felt so bad for Carter when Cal died. I sure didn’t see that coming so I guess he’s safe on Army Wives LOL The HR is so deep into this and I sure hope that Carter can get them out of this. I was proud of Fusco when he stuck up for her like he did. Ms. Shaw is something else. I was so glad to see her and for her to figure out where Harold was and then after she and he talked and are basically on the same side he called Bear a traitor LOL too good. Elias is going to be a big part of this as well, even though he is in prison. The story is so deep and I’m really enjoying it.

Dallas ~ 4/1/13

written by Thom - March 29th, 2013 at 5:03 pm

I loved the scene with John Ross and Pamela. I thought that was the best and it so set the stage for Christopher and her. Very very well done. I wish they wouldn’t make Sue Ellen start drinking again. We’ve been through that but I guess once a boozer always a boozer. I knew the guy, Kevin? Keith? that worked for Tesha would come around to Sue Ellen and give her something. Didn’t see the bit about the governor and Harris happening. True politics as I live and breath. One of the best things they did about the show last night was make the chick that JR was with say that he was a real gentleman. I’m glad they stopped there with that and didn’t make JR bed her. Very well done. Drew has got to get honest with Elena about what happened. I don’t know how they are going to get him out of this. I felt bad for him and then for Harris to get Emma and make him see what he did to him. He is truly a bastard and I hope mama comes back and makes him suffer actually. I don’t like Emma. What a slut. I also hope that they get this thing done with Cliff and Harris and move on to something different for the Ewings. I want there to be a whole new story line for some reason. Good show. Next week it’s two hours long.

Game of Thrones ~ 3/31/13

written by Thom - March 29th, 2013 at 5:02 pm

OMG I love Daenerys dragons. I’m so glad they have finally gotten bigger and them flying around her ship. Was excellent. And then her getting her army, and I wonder if she knew how shitty the guy was talking about her when he was trying to sell his army…she is so going to be a threat to everyone. It was also good that they brought in her fathers head of the kingsguard and now he is going to be hers. I tell you she’s still my favorite. Tyrion and his father were another excellent scene. I really enjoyed Tywin. He was so nasty and mean to Tyrion and you can bet that Tyrion is going to plot revenge. I loved Margaery as well and how she is winning over that snot Joffery. Cersei isn’t taking well to her and it’s going to be good to see how this all plays out with those two women. That chick giving Shae info about not trusting Littlefinger I think is good advice. I missed Bran and Arya not being on the show. That giant was just amazing and it finally looks like Jon Snow might be getting some gonads LOL We shall see. Good to see the White Walkers finally. Seems like everyone knows that Ned Stark cheated on his wife LOL Davos I think is on the right track about Melisandre and Stannis should have listened to him instead of putting him in a cell. Great series opener.

Grimm ~ 3/29/13

written by Thom - March 29th, 2013 at 4:54 pm

Well poor Nick. Get’s all pissy with Monoroe about wanting to take Juliette there and at least he told him that if he doesn’t she’s done with Nick. I’m liking that back story with Renard and I think it’s going to be fun to see how it all plays out. I wonder if Adlind’s name is on that list. I so like Wu as well. He would be a game nerd and puzzle solver like that. He’s been so out of the picture for such a long time that’s it’s good he got more lines. Loved it when he said this: I spend my life gaming, just me and my cat. LOL All I could think of during this show was Laurie and Renee playing that WOW. LOL The sister getting pissy with the guy when he tries to help Nick and Hank LOL I so pictured Laurie. I also hope you caught when the case first started and Hank said he hopes it’s not a Wessen. Very good again this week.

Hawaii Five-0 ~ 3/25/13

written by Thom - March 19th, 2013 at 8:19 am

OMG I loved it when Catherine called Kamekono Kammy LOL and that helicopter game and then him passing and Max starting the Magnum PI theme in the end and off the go all singing. Was the best. I just loved that. Was good to see that chick back that was in Prison with Chin. He needs a squeeze. And this story really happened in Hawaii, not like this exactly, but there was a shark tour company on the north shore that was getting their boats burned up because of their business. Has died down now. Was a much better show this week because Mommy dearest wasn’t on.
