  At the end of the last episode, Miles and Nora were doing the tube steak boogie.  And that’s pretty much where we  open this week.  Nora is, basically, chewing her own arm off to get out of bed with Miles.   Those damn Beer Goggles got me again… She tells him their tryst was [...]

This is how I wish I watched this show. Last week, we learned that Monroe gets Miles’s sloppy seconds and Emma had Monroe’s spawn. But now Emma is dead.  Monroe was shot in the leg, and Miles is getting tanked like a mule. The show opens with Nora blowing up a lab or medical office. [...]

  So, last week we had some poop go down on Rev…Rachel managed to talk “Jane” out of the intell needed to get into The Tower, however, it was at the possible expense of Rachel’s friend, and Jane’s lovahhhh, Beth.  It seems Beth has been living with Stage 4 Cancer for the past 16 years, [...]

This no power business is really getting old.   I wish people would start eating each other… that might liven things up.   Revolution, rightly,  was pre-empted last week due to the Boston Marathon Bombing coverage, so if you are like me and are distracted by a Girl Scout cookie, I will remind you where [...]

Yeah, that’ll leave a mark… This episode is entitled “The Song Remains the Same,” I was hoping for some Led Zeppelin…but instead we got Lionel Richie. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some Lionel and I’m sure the music of Lionel made my buddy Pete Rodriguez happy, but don’t fake us out with an [...]

Flash-Forward 10 years and Carrie and Walt wind up as a miserable married couple living in Larissa’s loft… The end is nigh… thank god. It ends tonight kids….This episode is entitled: Kiss Yesterday Goodbye.  And let me tell you, I’m ready to kiss this whole trainwreck goodbye.   We join Carrie in bed. No, not [...]

I will be pulling your strings shortly, punk. This is the Xmas light that was crammed in Danny’s guts (sorry, for not having  a picture last week)  Looks like a Disco Tylenol Funeral for a Dumbass We join the Misfits at a funeral.  Aaron and Miles are shoveling dirt over Danny’s dead, boring body. Standing [...]

 Hiiiii-eeeeeeee Trivial, pointless, non-sexy, Pursuit We join Carrie and Sebastian playing Trivial Pursuit-boy you guys sure do know how to keep things how-  it’s Carrie’s turn, which should she choose Arts & Leisure or Science & Nature. ALWAYS go Pink- that’s MisRed’s advice. So what does she choose? Green- Science & Nature. She thinks she [...]

In case you have forgotten who is who Let’s give you a little recap of the characters in this fustercluck.  This episode is called The Stand- which is interesting as we’ve, previously, had other references to Stephen King’s “The Stand.” Greeting Revolutionaries!!  The Misfits are back and are ready for battle… and so is MisRed.  [...]

Carrie assumes Larissa’s identity. Oh great. Because ONE Larissa isn’t annoying enough. Spring in Castlebury- perfect time to try something new. Shed your skin… in Donna’s case, her winter clothes. In spring you mens’ thoughts turn to Donna LaDonna Carrie looks forward to Spring Break and a week off from school to work at Interview [...]

Another week of partying 80′s Style All roads lead to Sebastian.  Groan.  Carrie and Sebastian make out in the hallway at school- Donna sees and rolls her eyes. At the diner, Carrie complains to the girls about her chapped lips.   Waaaaaaah, my lips are chapped from kissing my hot boyfriends, Waaaaaaah Poor buh-buh- get [...]

Call the Whaaaaaambulance We are coming into the home stretch, folks, I think there are only 5 episodes left… and then I’ll be back to the ridiculousness that is Revolution.  I’m going to put it out there up-front, this is the dumbest episode ever.  The only storyline with any substance / intelligence is the Walt [...]

  Last Call for Drag Queens  Here we are… another week of Carrie… lying to her Dad. Her Dad drops her off at the law office – where is USED to have her internship- she goes in the revolving door and comes right back out and goes to her new internship at Interview Magazine. This [...]

Boys Ruin Everything  Carrie comes out of her internship and look who is waiting?? Mr Big George and his limo… and two cups of hot chocolate. Mr. Little “Winters are tough in NYC.” Oh yeah, no snow and a boyfriend with hot chocolate and a limo. How WILL you survive, Miss Bradshaw? At school, Carrie [...]

Woo hoo, Thanksgiving in February. Is that a thing in which Crazy Eddie would have capitalized? Thanksgiving in February!!!  Apparently, Thanksgiving was Carrie’s Mom’s favorite holiday, and she always made the holiday perfect with her amazing recipes. Whoa, whoa, whoa, I am, instantaneously, calling BS on this. No human (and by human, I mean woman) [...]

 80′s Full Throttle!! This week we are taking a slice from Mystic Pizza… kind of.  Except there is no pizza…or teenaged Matt Damons. The episode opens with Carrie at her internship, working with the Dragon Lady, whose given name, apparently is Barbara.  I thought that The Dragon Lady was an attorney, but it sounds as [...]

Oh look Halloween in February!!  I guess this really illustrates that this show was supposed to be on in the fall and got pushed back to January. At school, Carrie is trying to avoid Sebastian, but he is everywhere she goes- that’s the scary thing about High School, it’s so small you can’t avoid anyone [...]

REALITY SHOW IDEA:  It came from beneath The Dorrit’s Bed This week’s episode is all about labels.  The labels we give to people and the labels they give us.   The only difference is Luke Perry needed Botox Carrie is talking with Mouse and Mags, she tells them that her Dad has labeled Sebastian- POISON. [...]

 Ok, they’re starting to lose me here. The episode opens with Carrie’s narration that “the eyes are the window to the soul” and Sebastian and Carrie staring into each other’s eyes.  Groan. Someone needs some manscaping I know it is for dramatic effect, but it is, all, in fact, a set up for 80’s Super [...]

Obviously, the creators of this show have stolen my ipod. MisRed is baaaaaaaaaack.  When I was assigned the Carrie Diaries, I was a little afraid.  I, as a 43 year old woman, had just weaned myself off of 90210 (the new version), deeming myself too old to follow a teenager show.  Trust me, I’m completely [...]

Anyone up for a game of quarters?   The episode opens with a bunch of shooting.  Which is a nice change from a bunch of sword fighting.  It is a flashback to 5 years after the blackout and the Trenton Campaign, which is the hipster way of saying “Battle of Trenton.”  Miles and Monroe are [...]

Too bad it isn’t Zeptember or Rocktober…   Whoohoo! It’s the Led Zeppelin episode.  Personally, I don’t really care.  When I wanna get the Led out, I just turn on my ipod, but ok, clearly NBC has shelled out some change to the band so they want to milk it. The episode opens at the [...]

Tonsil Hockey Wow.  Last week was such an information-filled episode, I get the feeling this week might not live up to the hype.  But let’s see. We open 290 miles outside of Philly and the Misfits are attempting to cross a bridge, presently guarded by some shady dudes.  Nora is talking one of the guards [...]

“If you believe, clap your hands; don’t let Tink die.”  Wow, it just seems like I wrote a recap, like, three days ago.  Oh wait, I did. Our fairy tale opens with Charlie, seemingly captured by the Monroe Militia, being held down by 12 thugs. Shake your bon bon Ricky Martin standing over her with [...]

  15 years later and I finally get a bath MisRed here, sending out a HUGE apology for this late recap. We can blame that bitch Huricane Sandy!!! She knocked out our power for 4 days and we just got it back this afternoon. Yes, people, I was in my own personal REVOLUTION. My first [...]

  When we last hung out with these knuckleheads: -This show jumped the shark-Dr. Mom died.-Danny was being scheduled for a little forced dentistry.-”Nate” is a stalker.-Miles is shackled to Charlie for the foreseeable future.-Rachel likes to doodle.-Ben and Grace were both “algebra teachers.” (I always suspected MY Algebra teacher was out for World Domination [...]

  Episode 4 already?  Here is what we know: The Militia shot up the Olive Garden Miles escaped Jeremy’s (Jacob) clutches Aaron used to get wedgies, which in my opinion was a given] Dr. Mom has kids Miles met Jeremy after The Ghost Hunters beat his butt Nora has a vendetta against the Militia because [...]

Available for hire   Ok, so where are we? Ben is dead Rachel is not Danny is gone Miles is found Charlie is a killer Grace might be history Nora is mystery Monroe is a d*ck with ice Randall is here We used to bang, but now we don’t  Nora, Miles and Charlie are together [...]

I can say one thing for Chris.. he’s got guts.  Literally. And then there were 2. We are finally here at the Finale of Top Chef Masters. I can’t believe I won’t be stalking pictures of Curtis Stone anymore… well, at least until next season. Tomorrow I can stop sucking in my gut The Chefs [...]

 Remember the good old days?  Unlimited texts? I actually liked the first episode of Revolution. I had some issues with the pace of the show, but overall, it kept my attention. Let’s see how long it lasts. The episode opens with a voiceover, recapping the Blackout / Episode 1. Ok, we are in flashback mode- [...]

  My prayer for the day: Please, my dear Lord (and by “my Lord” I mean Satan), please, please, let today be the day when Lorena gets kicked to the curb. If you are as powerful as you say you are SATAN, you will make this happen!!!!!!!!!  Thank God this sh*t is almost over.  Even [...]

Honey, it looks like you forgot to pay the electric bill…  Hello Gasmi!  This is my first foray into non-reality TV recappery… so bear with me.  Hopefully it won’t be recRappery. Revolution opens in Chicago, we assume present day, with two little kids, a boy and a girl, “watching” Bugs Bunny cartoons.   I’ll bet he’s [...]

The Beast that killed Takashi Welcome to the 10th Circle of Hell Last week Lorena the Horena won- unbelievably, in my opinion and my favorite little pocket chef was sent packing. Good vs Evil I am still mourning the loss of Takashi but here we are, nearing the end, at episode 8. We have whittled [...]

Takashi Manero Last week, Art sashayed out the door and back to the land of Biscuits, Oprah and Lady Gaga’s collapsing cake.  Unfortunately, we are still left with his annoying BFF, Lorena.  There are five Chefs remaining, well, six if you count Patty’s mole.  Patricia, Lorrrrrrrrrrrrrena, Takashi, Chris and Kerry.  Putting it out there, this [...]

I’m sorry for the delay guys.  My sister in law was visiting from England for 10 days… I barely survived. Awww, I just remembered that Thierry is gone.  ☹  Oh look, there’s Curtis, I’m over it.   Hot Stuff Comin’ Through Curtis is in the kitchen welcoming the Chefs to their Quick Fire Challenge.  In [...]

I just gouged my own eyes out Ok, so Simple Jack is gone. I’m sorry, I’ve been wanting to call Clark “Simple Jack” since Ep 1. He just LOOKS like the Ben Stiller character with that ridonkulous bowl haircut. Sadly, he wandered away from the edge of the Grand Canyon and was eaten by a [...]

Welcome to the Episode 4!    Last week Mark Gaier was sent packing for his lackluster scallops cooled Teppanyaki style.  He left his partner Clark behind.  And Art won lasts week’s elimination challenge, gaining ultimate redemption for cake-gate 2012. Feast your eyes on this… Speaking of cake- beautiful cupcake Curtis Stone is already in the kitchen [...]

Season 4, episode 3 already!  Time flies.  Last week we saw the glorious win of Patricia and her mole for sweeping the critics and wedding guests off of their feet and Debbie Gold was shuffled out the door.  And Honey Bear Smith dodged a bullet for his caketastrophe. In case you forgot Art’s dizzzzzaster Mr. [...]

 The Chefs come into the Kitchen and Curtis Stone (Cold Fox or SCF, as I am abbreviating) is there, which is never a good sign. SCF announces that there will no QuickFire Challenge today, they are going straight into the Elimination Challenge. SCF also announces two guests: Christine and Jay. Hottie and the Bride and [...]
