Twitter Take: I like GRACEPOINT enough but I loved BROADCHURCH so it’s really hard to say “watch the US version of a brilliant British show” — Amrie Cunningham (@mytakeontv) October 2, 2014 GRACEPOINT premieres at 9/8c on FOX tonight. Don’t skip it but don’t race home to watch.
BAD JUDGE on NBC, premiering tonight at 9/8c, has a title that tells you all you need to know. Kate Walsh plays a JUDGE (who, from the looks of it, even if she’s drunk all the time, does understand the law); the show itself is pretty BAD (BAD + JUDGE, ya know?). It tries to be a workplace comedy, but it falls short on the comedy, with Walsh trying way too hard at playing the Honorable Rebecca Wright, a young,
Kevin Williamson has been known to put his women characters in peril, and his latest show, STALKER, which begins tonight on CBS (10/9c), is no different. Within the opening minutes, someone is lit on fire at the hands of, you guessed it, a stalker! The case then heads over to the Threat Assessment Unit of the LAPD where we meet no-nonsense head of the unit, Lt Beth Davis (Maggie Q, who deserves better), as she greets her staff and newest
Tonight on ABC, Jake McDorman and Analeigh Tipton star in MANHATTAN LOVE STORY, premiering at 8:30/7:30c after SELFIE. The show follows Pete (McDorman) and Dana (Tipton) as they traverse the rough waters of dating in Manhattan. The entire time we’re watching their blind date (and subsequent attempts) implode (they were set up my his brother and his brother’s wife (Dana’s best friend)…still with me?), we’re made to listen to their inner monologues that include but aren’t limited to Pete’s comments
Let’s make this known: while Tennant is my Doctor (and will forever be), Amy Pond is my companion. She was my favorite – with Rory, without Rory, in general, etc. So I’m a big fan of Karen Gillan. As a fan of KG, I was pre-disposed to be a fan of her new show, SELFIE, which premieres tonight at 8/7c on ABC. Gillan plays Eliza Dooley, a vapid, self-obsessed woman, who is “insta-famous” but who has no real friends. When
BROOKLYN NINE-NINE returns tonight to FOX with their Season 2 premiere at 8:30/7:30c and it’s definitely been worth the long wait since May! When we left the 99, Jake had decided to go undercover, confessing his feelings for Amy along the way. Meanwhile, Gina and Charles found themselves in bed together after a wild night. When season 2 picks up some time later, Jake is back, Gina and Charles are still reeling, and Terry, Amy, and Diaz are being put through
The big buzz for this season, and just about all everyone kept talking about, for Once Upon a Time is the addition of the Disney’s Frozen main characters to the cast. Seriously, just about every other question was about it. I almost felt bad for the talent having to answer question after question about characters that they have had very little interaction with yet! They took it in stride though and did their best. Q: In Frozen, there’s a parallel
The weirdness that was Resurrection returns and much like its freshman season, the season 2 premiere episode starts with somebody waking up in field. Again. This time it’s Marty (Omar Epps). Last time we saw him, he was trying to get child Jacob out of town when the big bad Army swooped in with helicopters and LOTS of fire power and then the screen went to black! DRAT! Government involvement, interrogation rooms, injections – dunh dunh DUUUNH! Are we finally
Tonight, Shondaland takes over ABC when GREY’S moves to 8/7c, SCANDAL takes up residence at 9/8c, and HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER (written by Peter Nowalk) joins the line up at 10/9c. Viola Davis stars as Annalise Keating, brilliant professor of law, with a specialty in defense, who teaches a class “lovingly” referred to as “How to Get Away with Murder.” What follows throughout the hour is a bunch of law students trying to one up each other while
Twitter Take: I want to make a mix-tape for @TheGoldbergsABC. Great show, great season premiere. I love it so much. #myinspiration — Amrie Cunningham (@mytakeontv) September 24, 2014
