Sleepy - More Season 2 news. Interview. http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/07/28/sleepy-hollow-season-2-interview/

Orange - I was so surprised that that was what she was - a crazy stalker and over-shopper. LOL Def funny about the anatom lesson too.

Lost - wow 2 summers ago! LOL

House Cards - I forgot those cufflinnks ! They were great.

Mike V. said...

House of Cards - We're 2 more episodes in. (so 4 eps of season 2 now) There was the antrhax scare with his wife revealing the rape in an interview. And there was Frank getting the bill passed through the senate with some gaming of the senate process. Entertaining stuff!

VIKINGS--I don't want to wait until 2015!!!!!! What a great trailer, I loved the heads suspended from yard arms. Interesting that this trailer only had 1 short shot of Ragnar. I know where the story goes next year and it really does go to yet another level!!!! It was cool listening to the seer talk about "the river" and 3 coasts. Lothi holding the crown, mmmm is that because he wants it or just killed the prior wearer???? Inquiring minds want to know--lol.

Ray Donovan - dont have showtime right now

Longmire - yup guess he's not so crazy lol. Don't remember if this ep or last but loved Ferg finally standing up for himself

MJ said...

Leftovers - that stoning death was harsh ! And finally a little humor with the missing shirts and the sherriff who can't set his home
alarm ! Also the leader talking and laughing and listening to the radio But how dark was that Homeland Security guy saying he can make the cult 'go away'. Yikes. But they are all still so tense. Sheriff managed to pretty much yell at everyone at some point, and after the lunch that cult leader got real intense there. So I assumed the missing shirts were taken by GR just like they stole peoples photos. But why did the Homeland Security guy insist he never got any of sheriffs calls ?

Leftovers - Haven't watched yet but heard about the stoning. There was an EW article about how that author was giving up on the show. lol Of course it led to many comments bashing Lindelof ("the hack").... he's going to have that stigma forever unfortunately. Unless he develops another bonafide hit with an ending that satisfies everyone. lol

He probably needs to pull a Rowling and start writing under a pseudonym and see if people actually like his stuff rather than making up their mind ahead of time! lol

TB - Did watch True Blood though! Not a bad ep. Of course there's a cure!! I thought maybe with it being the final season that maybe all bets were off. lol

Eager to get back to House of Cards!

Clone Wars - Started Season 4. Season 3 was really good as I had always heard. Lots of Jedi/Sith stuff covered in a better way than it was in the prequels. Of course, they also have better voice talent and scripts for Anakin's plots too. lol

TB - yeah I thought they'd ket the vamps die off. Should have known that Ball would not do that since from day 1 coming out of the coffin was heavily representative as coming out of the closet. So letting the vamps die off would be likened to killing off gays. Loved Eric ripping off that jaw - them carrying it around with him as he continued to kill people.

House Cards - meant to say yesterday - was surprised with her whole rape thing and how much time they spend on the subject actualy. She was recently on Fallon or Kimmel - forget which one - playing some dancing game - she was pretty good too. Was odd to see her like that since she's so cold on the show.

Leftovers - yeah husband is about to quit it. His comment was 'now I know where the weirdness and oddity of Lost came from - it was all Lindeloff'.

Mike V. said...

Leftovers - Still didn't watch...but yeah there's no doubt about that. It's possible Carlton Cuse was a good yin to Damon's yang. Seeing Cuse's latest efforts shows that he is good at weaving a story together and making it entertaining. (Bates Motel, haven't looked at Strain, but that's really Del Toro anyway) Damon definitely has some bold ideas though. I'm still interested to see how well he collaborated with Brad Bird and EW's Jeff Jensen on the Tomorrowland film.

TB - "coming out of the coffin" lol...I actually never made that connection. Eric's fight scene was pretty badass.

House of Cards - I still think it's odd to see her act like she does on this show because she is PRINCESS BUTTERCUP!! lol We watched 2 more episodes last night. One with the Civil War reinactment....and Frank is really taking the war to the President's friend who advises him. The news reporter dude has gotten himself into a hot mess doing time for investigating Frank.

mj said...

House Cards - oh I forgot all the tangles with the Pres advisor!

TB - think Alan Ball himself has talked about the comparison of the closet/coffin.
