Thank you for the nice compliment! I just *loved* the way they killed off Daryl. So appropriate that the man who’s motto was all about how he had to take care of his family, to get shot in the balls. PERFECT. […]

I *still* do not get Boyd letting Albert go. I really don’t. I get that maybe they were trying to show just how fucking tired he was of the whole damn thing, especially since Ava had already cut him loose, but […]

Maaaan, they packed *a lot* into this sixty minutes. Maybe too much, as I don’t know how in the world non-book readers are able to fully appreciate the depth of this story using only the brief clips of each […]

I’ll be 49 in July and I still found myself thinking “shit, I need to do that.” *lol*

Funny stuff!!

I didn’t think of that, either. It seems like she’s tried several times to get away (all the attempts at law school) but keeps getting sucked back in.

I don’t believe Boyd has forgotten about Ava, either. I think he has something else up his sleeve, he just hasn’t revealed it yet. #TeamBava

I was just floored that Wendy was sucked in to Daryl’s lies about how everything was really her fault. His manipulation was so obvious, and she’s relatively intelligent so why does it work????

I love that description “grotesque and beautiful.” It is so appropriate.

MJ commented on the post, New Show Recap: Hannibal 2×05, “Mukozuke” 9 years, 2 months ago

I would be so disappointed if they canceled it. It’s dark and just plain fucking weird but it’s EXCELLENT.

I’m filling in for Alyson and recapping Friday night’s Hannibal. Let’s get started!

The episode opens, as so many of them do, with Hannibal cooking, although this time the meal seems to only […]

I’m really hoping that the truth of Daryl being responsible for shooting Art comes out, but I can see the show letting Kendall take the hit for it. Which sucks, and definitely makes me hate Daryl more.

“I may not know a lot about a lot of things, but I do know how to blow shit up!” Oh, Boyd. Never change.

So what is Boyd Crowder blowing up now? Well, just hold on to your hair gel. We’ll get […]

I’m terrified to watch the season finale. I’m seeing all kinds of rumours and rumours of rumours and I DON’T WANT ANYONE ELSE TO DIE! Except the people who need to die, of course.

Just the promos for this […]

Bones aired a new episode on Monday. This is a recap. That’s as clever as I can get with this one.!–more–

I. A body is found in a bed of kudzu, which has pretty much grown up, around and through the […]

MJ wrote a new post, New Show Recap: Justified, 5×10, “Weight” 9 years, 2 months ago

It’s always an interesting exercise to compare the title of a Justified episode with the action on screen. “Weight” here could apply to anyone and everyone. Actions have consequences and our favorite good guys and […]

MJ commented on the post, Bones, 9.17 “The Repo Man in the Septic Tank” 9 years, 2 months ago

I can’t disagree with any of that. As far as relationships go, they’ve moved to the ‘safe’ side of the line.

I don’t have a problem with Christine going to church because I agree that in order to decide what […]

MJ commented on the post, New Show Recap: The Walking Dead, 4×14, “The Grove” 9 years, 2 months ago

All through this episode (through the last several that featured Lizzie’s craziness), I kept yelling that someone needed to kill that kid but I never – NEVER – actually thought someone would. That it was Carol, […]

A body in a septic tank, a new intern and Brennan Learns A Lesson About Religion — that’s a lot to cram into a one-hour episode, so let’s get to it!

Brennan has a new intern and because Daisy […]

“Are you going to let that love go to waste?” That may have been the creepiest line of the two seasons so far (and that’s saying something for this show).

It’s like Hannibal is playing with Will. I think he […]

MJ commented on the post, New Show Recap: Justified, 5×09, “Wrong Roads” 9 years, 2 months ago

This whole heroin thing is taking way too long to either get off the ground or land someone in jail. Mary Steenburgen arrives on the scene next week, which hopefully means a little more movement on Duffy’s part.
