Hey Gasmi.  How many of you out there think that Nashville is now going to add a Mindy McCready –based character, now that she is (sadly) back in the news.  At least for one or two cycles.  Until some other celebrity fucks up.  If anyone out there is wondering why we even care about this, [...]

I bet Elton loves this show.  And what is up with that hat? OK, you guys – we have a LOT to talk about. Firstly, let me just put it out there, the past two weeks have pretty much changed up the whole REVENGE game, amirite? I try to stay out of the “BIZ” blogs, [...]

Anyone else have RINGER flashbacks?  I’m sad, you guys!  I can’t say I was always a fan, but our former exotic dancer juvie girl wormed (and warmed) her way into my heart.  She could be annoying and her romance with Jack obviously stood in the way of Emily’s true love, but she was one of [...]

Go Sally! I don’t know if I could have been happier with this week’s episode.  Sorry guys, but I felt the last episode dragged so badly and was so pointless, I was getting a little sad about the state of our REVENGE.  But just like life, things actually happen when you least expect it.  And [...]

  Hola Gasmii and welcome to my favorite episode of The Taste so far.  Why is it my favorite? Because dear Gasmii, it is all about the vino, and I am a HUGE fan of vino.  Remember last week’s recap I wondered if people were gonna start getting catty with each other?  Well – BINGO!   Team Malarkey [...]

 Puppy!  And pre-pubescent matrimony! Well thank God, that happened.  All of it.  Actual plot movement – as in the storylines actually progressing!  Before the two week break, I have to admit this show just about did me in.  I felt like everyone was talking in circles and nothing was happening, but “Union” went a long [...]

I saw a commercial today for the upcoming Nashville episode. YUM! Deacon looks incredibly f-ckable.Remember what I said about Gunnar’s brother looking a bit WP prag material? Check it: Oui ou Non?  So we open to something I cringed through – Juliette and Rayna performing Wrong Song to in some McStadium. Rayna’s pretty much taking [...]

Good morning Gasmii! Are you all enjoying this show as much as I am?  No?  Eh, it’s hard to really get involved when YOU KNOW they are just gonna be giving people the boot right and left.   And they’re NICE about it.  To their faces at least. The most amusing part of the whole endeavor [...]

Hello Gasmii!  I told you I’d get the minicap up lickity split, are you excited?  ARE YOU! Well you should be because tonight is about the Taste, and nothing but the taste.  Did you know that it’s all about the Taste?  Because it is! Um, did someone say this was about the taste?  I’m confused as to what [...]

Hello Gasmii!  Sorry for the delay,it’s been a crazy week and the details are depressing and no where near as interesting as watching two hours of other people eat food- selfish bastards!!!!  But I trust the minicap was able to hold you over.  Hopefully you were satiated enough and are ready for the full meal.  [...]

Is Revenge getting desperate? “Collusion”? Maybe “Delusion” would be a better title? We wake up in bed with Emily having some sort of fever dream – she’s having sex with Aiden, but then he’s Daniel! OMG, you guys! She’s conflicted! But is she really – because she loves Aiden? But now she wakes up to [...]

Canceled

Angry Aiden – I mean he looks good, I guess? Well, if they were going to all take a vacation – I wish it would have been a bit more festive. More along the lines of royal wedding in Moldavia. Although that ended badly, didn’t it? All in all, I can’t say I understood anyone’s [...]

Yes, dearest gasmii, I am a terrible person. It’s true, just look up my CSIS file (I’m a national disgrace). But I’m also a working mom (like there is any other kind?) so my free time is limited to bathroom breaks and I don’t quite get wifi in the can. Luck has struck in the [...]

Wow – this video is more significant than I thought.  RIP Adam Yauch Coming for the Sabotage! Due to the Golden Globes experience and some personal, familial issues, I am going to take a different take on the recap this week. Let’s do the most ridiculous/significant moments from this episode: Voiceover/Title Name Explanation: FAIL Really? [...]

Is Conrad having some sort of male menopause, midlife crisis brought on by his ousting from Grayson Global?  How else to explain his various ensembles featuring his bare legs, his casual use of the phrase “baby mama”, and (most significantly) his decision to run for office.  WHUT?  Oh Conrad, weren’t you recently scandalized 8 different [...]

We open with Rayna belting out Wrong Song while various pasty white dudes groove down in the background. Juliette is supposed to be there but she apparently has pulled a Lohan (BTW – y’all need to read the NYTimes article of the making of The Canyons. I think the writer was surprisingly fair to Lohan [...]

She’s got the power Revenge returned this week with a nod to the Revenge of yore. You see, way back when in season 1, the show was built around a simple conceit: each week Ms. Thorne (nee Clarke) would locate and dispose of an enemy. The show was more concise and each week concluded with [...]

And all was right again We’re ba-aaack!  And so is our favorite tool in the game of REVENGE.  The red pen!  Oh, how we missed you, little friend.  For some reason it is oh-so-satisfying to watch Emily cross off one of her enemies after they are severely rebuked and jettisoned.  Revenge is a dish best [...]

It is the finale already! A two hour spectacular! Berry here at your service. Fran is trying to put Lil’ C down for the night. She’s teething and screaming up a storm. The double wide next door keeps throwing Coors cans at our door but what can we do?! We’re down to four teams: Team [...]

Emily Never After

R.I.P.

After the Prevouslies, we open with Rayna and Liam strutting backstage. He’s pretty handsy. I like it. Liam has really grown on me over the past two episodes. Are they writing him as an alcoholic or is it my imagination? Oh those nutty creative types…always willing to wreck their liver for their art! Teddy walks [...]

Midseason finale! Oh Television, you and your tricky wordplay! Methinks you don’t quite understand the meaning of the word “finale”, although I will take a “midseason finale” over a “two part finale” any day.  Without the true definition of words, nothing separates us from the animals.   So…Revelations! Not sure how revelatory the episode was [...]

Hi AR fans! Berry here! Fran and Lil C’ are out of town, so it’s boxers only in the Franberry household this weekend! Now if someone could just come help me out of this pile of pizza boxes so I can make it to the bathroom. No? Ah well, at least I can reach the [...]

We open with Rayna and Liam McGuiness (Or Shanty McGaelic, as I reflexively re-named him) listening to some new tracks. Captain Bringdown (Bucky) comes in with the news that record exec Marshall is playing hardball. He not happy, so he’s planning to release a Rayna Greatest Hits record. Rayna is frustrated and rather ticked. Rayna [...]

What was this about?  Fabulous outfits?  OK!  If you’re going to have a show called Revenge, it sure as hell better have ruthless characters fighting tooth and nail to win.  It seems that the characters this season have been a little too tame for REVENGE – a little too concerned with facts and figures, rather [...]

Heyhey Gasmites! Were you like me and missed Nashville last week? Here’s hoping this week makes up for last week’s Nashville’s bereftitude. Yes, I am aware that is not really a word. SourCake has all that fancy schoolin’ and she still thinks she can just make up words… Juliette in her amazing condo with that dumb [...]

  What’s the expression? Monsters aren’t born, they’re made. Well, according to Lineage, they are most definitely made: Marion made Victoria, Conrad made Daniel, Nolan made Marco, Emily made Ashley. Wait, what? That last bit has yet to be revealed, but it seems to be in the realm of possibility at this point! Flashback to [...]

You’re the fairest!  You’re the fairest!!!! FLASHBACK!  Well for the second year running, Revenge has blessed us with an episode featuring our characters once upon a time.  Several important plot points were revealed and several character backstories were made clearer.  Such as: 1) Victoria wasn’t born bad, she learned to be bad. 2) Aiden wasn’t [...]

Before we get to the recap, Berry’s brother, I’m flattered by your posts but it’s making our end of the day family baths really stressful. If you’re going to keep posting do it under our secret pet nickname…you know what it is! And now, the thrilling conclusion….wait no, it’s not the conclusion. It’s just the [...]

OK, folks, I’ma level with y’all. My heart just isn’t really into this recap. It was my darling baby’s birthday this weekend. So…up until now, my time has been pretty jam-packed with real-life stuff. Also, because I stuffed myself sick last night and am suffering the worst food hangover of my life, I can barely [...]

AND WE’RE OFF: Juliette’s coerced by her publicist into doing some ridiculous, zoo-themed publicity stunt that throws her into the path of Tim Tebow…sorry, some dumb-fuck actor playing the role of Tim Tebow. Rayna’s looking to make some drastic changes to her career and she finds just the right producer to help her along her [...]

This came up on Youtube for “Felonious Sapphic Blondes”.  Seems about right.  REVENGE works best when it keeps it simple.  The Graysons ruined Amanda Clarke’s life and she is going to ruin their lives. Unfortunately it takes more story to round out multiple seasons of an hour long drama than one woman fighting one family. [...]

Jane takes the next step.

Hi Racefans! Boy oh boy, this season is flying by! Berry’s favorite team Tall & Tiny are out so we are not sure who we are rooting for anymore. This week on AR, six teams remain! Who will be eliminated next? Friday Night Lights (FNL)- Trey and Lexi Choke Out- Abbie and Ryan Mama Mia- [...]

We open with Juliette being queen bee of the studio. She’s force-marching her band thru take after take of a song they already have nailed. The consensus between Deacon, the publicist (damn, I really need to find out her name if she’s going to be a recurring character!) and Goodman is that Juliette is avoiding [...]

She’s got that look in her eye!  Run, Consuela!  Run! “The Gift of Revenge”? Gee…thanks? Thank God you didn’t get me the Gift of Turmoil like last year or the Gift of Disaster like the year before. Tis the season for the Gift of Revenge! HUH?!?  Thanks Tar-jay… Hey guys! What did you think of “Penance”? [...]

Don’t. Open. The. Box.

Sorry Babs
