I think we can all agree that REVENGE’s second season (and maybe even the second half of the first season) wasn’t the greatest. The continued dependence on the faux-Amanda-Clark side of things, the Initiative, Emily straying too far from the take downs we’d come to love, not enough Nolan and Emily friendship- there was a lot of room for improvement. It got to the point where I had 9 episodes stored up on the DVR that I never even made
After what can only be described as the perfect first season I’ve ever seen; REVENGE is back! But where could it possibly take us now?? Let’s look back, shall we? Emily/Amanda concocted a masterful plan to put the family who framed her father, David Clarke, for terrorism and subsequently murdered him, the wealthy Graysons into turmoil, all of which resulted in a twisty-turny rollercoaster ride for the viewers. Seriously, I felt like I needed a seatbelt it was so good!
Yes, I really am just posting a post to remind you, out of the goodness of my heart, that the best three hours of the week are TONIGHT! Starting at 8/7c, don’t miss an all new THE MIDDLE which finds the Family Heck claiming it the “Year of the Hecks” and setting out to accomplish randomly and anonymously assigned New Year’s Resolutions. At 8:30/7:30c, it’s the “Driving Miss Dalia” episode of SUBURGATORY that Jane Levy talked about with us this
Courtney K is taking a look back on her favorites from 2011 – how do these stack up to yours? Favorite new obsession: DOCTOR WHO – where HAVE I been?? In a world with faded colors that’s where. Becoming a Doctor Who fan (or Whovian) has brought me a whole mess of new appreciations. Much like fans of Army of Darkness or Firefly, there’s hidden jokes in almost everything I watch or read that all point back to one Doctor
It should come as no surprise, especially if you follow this blog or my Twitter or Facebook or talk to me in real life, when I say that REVENGE is my favorite network drama this season. It’s full of plot twists that we didn’t see coming, and some of the greatest scheming from a lead that we’ve seen in a long, LONG time (Emily Van Camp is awesome). Along the way, it’s uncovered seriously double-sided characters, and love triangles that
Check out preview clips for tonight’s all new ABC lineup (aside from MODERN FAMILY) and tell me you’re not willing time to go faster so that you can get home and watch? Up first, on THE MIDDLE:
If there’s one night of TV that is designed to get me to stay home, it’s Wednesday nights on ABC. Starting with THE MIDDLE, followed (next week) by one of my new favorite comedies SUBURGATORY. MODERN FAMILY, followed (next week) by one of the BEST shows on TV, HAPPY ENDINGS. The night is rounded out by new favorite drama, REVENGE, starring the lovely and perfectly icy Emily Van Camp. THE MIDDLE, MODERN FAMILY, and REVENGE have their big premieres tonight
After an hour long episode of THE MIDDLE (it’s awesome) and MODERN FAMILY (I’m sure it’s awesome), stick around for one of my favorite new shows of the season, REVENGE. The story of Amanda Clarke, the wealthy daughter of a disgraced hedge fund executive, who assumes the role of Emily Thorne, the equally as wealthy new girl in town, hellbent on exacting revenge (see what they did there) against those who ruined her family. The show stars Emily Van Camp
