Glee: Episode 3.15- "Big Brother"

    Glee's big return was last night and remember how I said they needed to tread carefully with their handling of Quinn's last-minute car-cash-cliffhanger. And as expected, Glee dropped the ball pretty well.

Breaking In: Episode 2.01- The Contra Club

    Last year, Fox aired Breaking In as a mid-season replacement. However, after just seven episodes, the show was cancelled. Now, almost a year later, the show has joined the ranks of the shows that have been "Uncanceled". It returned with it's second season premiere last night. So, how did the show's second chance fair?

Terra Nova Bites the Big One

    Ever since the first season finale of the new Fox show Terra Nova, the big question around the show was weather or not it would get to see a second season. And now, Fox officially announced that the show would NOT be returning for another season.

\

    While the ratings for the show weren't terrible, it just wasn't enough for Fox to renew the very costly show. The show is being shipped around to different networks to try and find it a new home, but that rarely happens. Personally, I hope the show does get a second chance, as I enjoyed the first season and would like to see the direction they were going in.

The Walking Dead: Episode 2.11- Judge, Jury, Executioner

Spoiler Warning   

    Ok, first off, sorry about last weeks technical difficulties, which have been fixed. I will give my full Week 22 recap next week along with Week 23. But now, let's talk about last night episode of The Walking Dead, which we lose a very familiar face.

White Collar: Episode 3.16- Judgement Day

   SPOILER WARNING

   
    Last night was the third season finale of White Collar. It was the big build up of everything from the stolen U-Boat treasure to the old stolen Raphael. But, most of all, it was about Neil's commutation and his race against Agent Cramer. And as always, there was a nice little cliffhanger thrown in...

2011- 2012 TV Season Review: Week 21

Quick little thing to start off with. Some slight issues have come up that untill they are resolved, this blog make take a while to be uploaded on some days. For instance, while I would probably have talked about it, I have not seen last night's The Walking Dead and probably won't get to see it until later this week. These problems will affect this blog ONLY and not Cinema Won.

Once Upon a Time- "What Happened to Frederick"- 5 out of 6

Glee: Episode 3.14- On My Way

                                                             SPOILER WARNING

    Let me get this out of the way before I talk about the episode. Yes, I am a fan of Glee. The first season is still fantastic and one of the best first season of any TV show ever. The second season however, fared a lot worse, most due to the show's haphazardness when it came to it's own continuity. The third season so far has managed to at least bring the show a little ways from the edge of the one-and-done cliff. And last night winter finale of the show, "On My Way", featured both the show best and worst traits.

Castle: Episode 4.16- Linchpin

    Every show tries to be bigger than itself. It's a fact of life. It tries to make an episode that goes way out of it normal comfort zone and does something extremely different. However, most of the time it doesn't work.
    Take last night's conclusion of the "epic" 2-part Castle event, "Linchpin". Castle, a murder-mystery-drama-comedy, tried to become a serious Bourne-type spy thriller. And did a really bad job at it.

The Walking Dead: Episode 2.09- Triggerfinger

                                                                    Spoiler Warning

    Overall, the latest season of AMC's The Walking Dead has been pretty hit-or-miss. The farm has led to some great drama, but it has dragged at times. But, since returning from winter break last week, AMC's The Walking Dead has bite back with a vengeance.
    Last night's episode. "Triggerfinger", was filled with the nasty moral dilemmas that make the zombie apocalypse so intriguing. Should we leave this poor kid to die? Should Shane really have lied to Lori? Is Glenn in love really a bad thing?
