When we first conceptualized the TV Underdogs series that we have been doing at CarterMatt throughout the month of January, you can really say that Brian Dietzen’s “NCIS” character of Jimmy Palmer was one of the people we always had in mind for a spotlight article. he’s a guy who has been around since the first […]
There are few characters within the world of “Major Crimes” that are as well-known to us as Andy Flynn. He’s been around from the early days of “The Closer,” and has gone from a potential adversary to Brenda to one of the most likable characters in this universe. Also, his relationship with Sharon is a […]
So far, we are two episodes into the second half of “Teen Wolf” season 5, and one thing already seems clear: We’re in for quite a journey when it comes to the character of Lydia. She’s in Eichen House, which is never the sort of place you want to be at to begin with if […]
The reality is that it will probably be some time before we hear any concrete news about “Longmire” season 5. Scripts are being written at the moment, but production has yet to start and question marks are juggling around in the air. We’ve spent some time already pondering about what lies ahead for Walt Longmire; […]
Agents of SHIELD, TV Underdogs
We may have a Leo Fitz problem when it comes to Marvel’s “Agents of SHIELD.” We would be willing to wager that the first part of season 3 likely contained some of the best material that we’ve seen to date when it comes to the character; yet, we still find ourselves wanting more, and getting […]
When “Girl Meets World” decided that they wanted to give the Lucas character a new foil, someone who understood him and someone who had some sort of past with him in Texas, they went in a fun direction with Amir Mitchell-Townes as Zay Babineaux. He’s an extremely funny character, someone who fires off some great one-liners, […]
It’s impossible not to love Foggy Nelson on “Daredevil”. While he may not be a classic superhero or have loads of charisma like Matt Murdock, there is something very genuine about Foggy that makes us want to root for him. Add to that the incredible performance that Elden Henson has given us and we can’t […]
The Walking Dead, TV Underdogs
Carl Grimes has long been someone we’ve particularly enjoyed on “The Walking Dead” long before season 6. Sure, many characters have been greatly informed by the zombie apocalypse and their journey, but few have been forced to become an adult in the way that Chandler Riggs’ character has. There have been times when he’s done the […]
Pretty Little Liars, TV Underdogs
“Pretty Little Liars” is always going to be a show fundamentally about Aria, Spencer, Emily, and Hanna. Maybe at times Alison and Mona are thrown in there, but the reality here still is that the main focus is on these young ladies and navigating their lives. The men of the show do have their own […]
In many ways to us, “Arrow” season 3 was the year that Laurel Lance came into her own. Some of the darkness of the past was behind her, and in its place stood strength, resolve, and of course a costume to kick butt in as the Black Canary. She had a really great year, and […]
