Revenge

Sorry about it, Dec! The second hour of the season finale.  Deep breath, we’ll get through this together.   The bomb has gone off at Grayson Global, timed perfectly with Conrad’s press conference.Conrad has given the “assassin” the nod setting off the explosion. Nolan calls Aiden, telling him Jack might have been in the building. [...]

ABC has announced its Fall Schedule, and there are some interesting developments. Usually, the normal 24 episodes that constitute a full network season are spread out from Fall until Spring, with a break in Winter and multiple weeks off during the year. This is nothing new, but you would think it’s an evil conspiracy if [...]


Revenge

This whole thing was pretty ingenious, Conrad. Well, you can’t say the season finale didn’t give us what we wanted – there was definitely something for everyone. Sure it was as convoluted as ever, but in the end (all things considered) it all made sense – and was pretty thrilling.  A whole hell of a [...]

Another goner


Revenge

Oh yes… Well, it certainly seems like it has all been leading up to this, doesn’t it? The Revenge team somehow managed to have all of this make sense.  Maybe?  By the end of “Engagement” I felt like I was watching another chapter of the Dark Knight, but instead of Batman, we have Emily. Strap [...]

A winner is chosen, and everyone else loses. Just like life.


Revenge

My diamonds ALWAYS match my dress! So, I guess season two will also have and engagement party. And (as it has been highly publicized) someone else will die.  Maybe Daniel for real this time? Unfortunately, the Graysons ain’t got time for no superstitions – and therefore they are doomed to repeat their mistakes. Or more [...]

New show name: Three Celebs and a Jackass

Some of the celebs had a three-way, and we had to watch.

Great band!  Best Coast – “Fear of My Identity” Well, the creator and show runner for Revenge was fired this past week.  Mike Kelley is outta here!  This can be looked at in a few different ways.  He was the show so it sucks he was let go…but the show has gone downhill…but he knows [...]


Revenge

This picture is hilarious and sums up her relationship with Daniel perfectly. Considering how much of an identity crisis Revenge has had this season, it is appropriate that the show finally addressed “Identity”.  Now that the Initiative is no longer the focus, let’s hope the show reclaims its former, more Revenge-filled identity. The Falcon was [...]

When asked by US Weekly who she would like to replace Elizabeth Hasselbeck on The View, Whoops answered “Let me tell you this about The View: I take a paycheck every other week. That’s all I do. I could give a sh– what comes. I do my job — I have a contract. That’s where [...]

Now THIS is the 80′s It is Halloween in the Hamptons (which sounds like an ABC Family TV movie doesn’t it? Jennie Garth, call your agent! I want 10%!). We know this because Declan is carving a pumpkin! That’s why they keep him around, guys – holiday decorating. Six weeks have passed and we are [...]


Revenge

Let the games begin! I am still processing this episode.  It was definitely one of the soap-iest episodes of the show (a Masquerade Ball – yes please!), but it also one of its strangest episodes.  Did anyone find the whole thing very dark?  Fitting perhaps for the Halloween-themed episode and definitely appropriate for the Masquerade [...]

We see a winner and a whiner.

“Torture” from the Jackson’s album VICTORY  On my Dream Board, I have the basics. 1) A house in the Hills (hidden from traffic, but still with an amazing view). 2) A job (in addition to TVGasm of course) that pays me the BIG bucks. 3) The true love (or true-ish). 4) The car (ok, anything [...]


Revenge

RED SHAAAAAAAAAARPIE! This was quite a gratifying episode.  There were so many wonderful aspects of tonight’s episode!   The pen!  - The foster mother takedown! – Jack continuing to be a (somewhat subdued) badass! -  The Mason Treadwell of it all!  Didn’t I just bring him up last week? Was a great show – what [...]

Revenge

Well, the grand, plot-altering highlight of this week is – of course – the full reveal of Eli, the con artist foster faux-bro (thanks for that, Nolan). Oh Eli, you tricky scamp, you! You made amazing strides in a short 43 minutes and you have your little pyromaniac sister on guard. The good news is [...]


Revenge

Did she really think he wouldn’t recognize her?  Bitch please… Revenge just looooves new characters, don’t it?  When in doubt throw a new character into the mix to shake things up.  Unfortunately this hasn’t always been successful (Helen Crowley, Kara the Sleepwalking Mom, RyBros).  However, foster brother Eli may prove to be a valuable addition.

Not the real trailer – but you guys know Ms.VanCamp is the new female lead in Captain America 2, right?  We knew her when… Much has been made of how REVENGE has gone off the rails this season – has lost the thread, forgotten the purpose, abandoned the raison d’etre, for cryin’ out loud! And [...]


Revenge

Jack was definitely having some mood swings this episode, hmm? Didn’t it seem like there was a lot of metaphorical/symbolic business going on in “Retribution”?  A cleaning house of a lot of the nonsense that had taken over the show this season?  Emily says (paraphrasing): “I can’t believe I let it get this far out [...]


The Taste

Hola Gasmii and welcome to this week’s recap of The Taste wherein they attempt to freak out the contestants and the home audience with the concept of Nose to Tail eating.  Those of us who grew up around different cultures just call it “dinner.”  But whatever.

Rayna is doing a round of PR for her tour.  She’s reeling from Teddy’s announcement but pulls it together like a champ.  Frankly, I don’t think she’s all that upset.  I think the shock is more because he asked her first.  And she’s realizing one chapter of her life is ending.  But I don’t think [...]
