Scrapped: What’s Been Canceled May 2013

16 May 2013 by Jess

It’s official. The counts are in, and looking toward this fall’s line-up the networks are being brutal. I wasn’t surprised by a few of these, like Smash and Guys with Kids, and I’ve heard rumors about most of the rest of these for a while now, but it makes it no less sad that some […]

Tuesday Finales: A Wedding, A Birth, and a Bloodbath

3 April 2013 by Jess

Turns out it’s just The New Normal and Justified tonight. Justified has been airing at 10 lately, and I’ve been able to watch my local 9pm block, but they switched things up on me, so, Smash will just have to wait. On the upside, I have a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT that I’m super excited to share!!! […]

The Ultimate Catch-Up: March Part 1

1 April 2013 by Jess

So…. I ended up needing more time to work on my book than I originally thought. My bad. But, on the bright side, I finished it! I only caught two typos, and I learned a lot about when to trust Amazon’s file converter and when not to. It wasn’t smooth, but it is complete, and […]

Tuesday Recaps: Comedy All Around

3 February 2013 by Jess

Happy Endings “The Marry Prankster” LOVED The Usual Suspects reference in this episode! One of my favorite movies and one of the greatest twists in a movie I’ve ever seen–fun to see it played on in a comedy. Dave decides to prank Max after he experiences a prank at his food truck which he assumes […]

Tuesday Recaps: It’s a Long Night

27 January 2013 by Jess

I packed the entire Tuesday line-up in here, minus New Girl, so it’s a long one! Justified Boyd figures out it’s the sister he has to talk to, not the preacher, to get what he wants done. However, when one of his men gets attacked by the snakes that surround the preacher’s room while he […]

Tuesday Night Needs to Pick Up the Pace: Except Justified, Which is Perfect the Way It Is

17 January 2013 by Jess

New Girl Nick’s dad (special guest appearance by Dennis Farina!) shows up for a visit. He wrangles Jess into buying a horse to sell back for a better price. She knows how upset Nick is with his dad, so she abandons them to try to get them to talk it out. It’s fun having guest […]

Tuesday Comedy and Winter Finales

9 December 2012 by Jess

Tuesdays are very confusing for me. Not only are 8 shows in a two hour block that I like to watch, but there are also so many SIMILAR names! David (The New Normal) and Dave (Happy Endings). Jane (Happy Endings) and June (Don’t Trust the B—-). Bryan (The New Normal), Ryan (Go On) and Ryan […]

About the Blog

This is a place to share my love and excessive fandom of film, actors, and television. I gush a lot, and I complain a lot, usually not simultaneously.

I share my take on the latest movies I’ve seen (some new, some new to me, and some classics that are worth a rewatch), and a little promotion here and there for shows or films that I feel deserve a little more attention than they’re getting.

So, kick back, settle in, switch on, tune in, or whatever you have to do and join in on the love for all things that move on-screen.
