Tonight, the picture on “Royal Pains” became at least reasonably more complicated, as we learned that Eddie’s secret daughter Emma was not exactly everything she was professing herself to be. She was actually underage, and had a history in card-counting and doing some other behaviors that are less than savory. However, she has a potential […]
Tuesday night’s “Rizzoli & Isles” episode is one of the most emotional ones of its entire run, and for a very obvious reason. This was the tribute episode to Lee Thompson Young and the Barry Frost character, and while the show focuses on fictional people, it can still be very hard to say goodbye. One […]
It has been a long time since there has been some significant TV scoop on “The Mentalist” season 7, and to be fair, it is also going to be a long time until the series comes back on CBS. Earlier today, the network revealed their fall schedule, and it was predictably not a part of […]
When you have an actor like Michael Chiklis on your show, especially on FX, you know that there is going to be a certain element of gravitas that inevitably goes along with it. This is an actor who is iconic to the network thanks to “The Shield,” and the last thing you want to do […]

There are traditionally a few “shocking events” with “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” that somehow continue to be labeled as such … even though we continue to see them almost every single season. One of them is someone being “there for the right reasons” (barfing at the realization that we just put that in an […]
After Monday night’s new episode of “Teen Wolf,” MTV was kind enough to lift the veil somewhat on everything that lies ahead this season … and some of it looks to be chaos of the worst kind. As with every other “supertease” that MTV releases about one of their shows, there is not exactly anything […]
Recastings are almost always a tricky thing to do, but sometimes they are inevitable. On occasion an actor gets an opportunity to play an enormous role somewhere else, and there are other times you realize that you need creatively someone a little bit different in the role. In the case of Naomi on “Hell on Wheels,” […]
“I feel a shaking of the ground I stand on. The nature of life is not permanent, but flux. Things are changing.” This is the line narrated by Jim Carter’s Mr. Carson in the latest promo for “Downton Abbey” season 5, which looks (at least superficially) to be one of the darkest seasons yet of […]
