Ah, the tragedy that is mid-season break. Chuck, House, and Castle are all done for this year. Castle will be back as soon as January 3rd but the other two won't be back until January 17th. But they did have the decency to end on different weeks so I'm not just stuck with tons of shows on one week and none anytime else. So this is technically my review of Monday November 22th, 29th and December 6th.
Some of these are a bit scant, apologies, I went more for my general opinion rather than details as these are end of the season.
Episode of the Week(s?): Either "Chuck versus the Leftovers" or Castle's "Last Call"
Hey Magnus, guess who's back in town...or at least the Columbian Highlands...
This is extremely late, but I wanted to do a really really thorough review of this episode cause it deserves it. And I guess it's ok to do it now because thanks to SyFy's extreme internet delay policies (30 days before show's are on hulu!) the episode is just now on the web. [Pics also courtesy of SyFy]
Ask and ye shall receive. It took two days after Vigilante airing and the aforementioned Tesla scene is already up on the web. It's either a late Hanukah present or an early Christmas one. Enjoy!
Still working, still catching up on TV. Bones made a comeback, by the way, with a hell of an episode "The Doctor in the Photo", and Sanctuary tied up their Father Jensen storyline nicely and is headed toward Hollow Earth next week.
Plus, I know I've said this before but, Jonathan Young is so great as Nikola Tesla on Sanctuary. Who else can make walking away saying "you're welcome" after unbuttoning a woman's shirt with magnetic powers while she awkwardly flirts with another character [below, on the right] so wonderfully snarky and hilarious? Once I find a clip of that scene, I'm posting it here, let me know if you find it!
Speaking of clips, here's two more to keep you going. Taylor the Latte Boy and Taylor's Response - these have been playing out of my headphones all finals week. These are my favorite performances; the original song doesn't have a set girl's name in it (it's not from a show) which is why the name changes from Kristen to Lindsey. Enjoy!
Anyways, I'm busy, and behind, and all that. I'll have to pull another double post at the end of this week, but until then, I've got something for each category of readers: a little House (procedural), a little Doctor Who (sci fi), and a little Kristen Chenoweth (musical). Enjoy and Happy Chanukah to any fellow Jews out there!
SPOILERS: Big Bang Theory, Bones, Riese, and Sanctuary
Yep, yep, yep, still behind, catching up, here's last week and the week before for these shows. Trail of Blood still on it's way, I swear, Animus was also another knock out of an episode. Really, Sanctuary is on a roll this season, there's not a single episode that didn't end without me anxiously ready for the next week. Plus yesterday?! I mean, that was a Magnus-fest, and a wonderful one.
Also, you get to hear me snap when it comes to Bones this season.
SPOILERS: Glee, Riese, Stargate Universe, and NCIS
Hello world! I am writing to you (and programing from) the glorious Pittsburgh airport, in a desperate attempt to fulfill my promise to catch up. Ehhhhh. More and more bullets. And don't even think about an episode of the day. Or pictures. I'm that behind, sorry.
Also, I've come to the conclusion that it's not Amanda Tapping's fault. Not even Morgan Freeman could make the Riese narration bearable.
Finally, I've got a question for all the SGU watchers: At the end of last weeks episode, did Rush deliberately miss? I'm not sure myself. Let me know what you think in the comments.
