Scottish Nightmare (Downton Abbey Season 3 Christmas Special Episode Review)

As mentioned in the title of this review, the Christmas Special of Downton Abbey's third season is a nightmare for fans. Why?

First, a flat and disappointing episode. 

Second, the death of a major character - as in, if you think Sybil's death was devastating... you might want to think again.

Asylum of Talents

The second season of American Horror Story (subtitled, Asylum) brought back some of the casts from the show's first run last year. Due to the undeniable success of this horror/thriller TV series, it won some major awards - including a Best Actress hit for Jessica Lange who played the enigmatic psycho Constance.

This season, as we all know, the show's setting is the Briarcliff Asylum for the Criminally Insane during the 1960s. Surprisingly, not only the crazy plot that psyched all of us. The returning actors are - hands down - unbelievably better than their previous performance in the show.

Check the actors below who I think deserve some much needed attention for their acting skills:

1. Jessica Lange as Sister Jude

 She's not your typical nun, per se. Lange played her character so well by inputting a distinct accent and strength, leadership and fear in her aura. I was not surprised that she was given the lead role in this season - after her wins from some major awards show. Lange did not fail and gave justice to Sister Jude.





2. Sarah Paulson as Lana Winters

           She is the biggest surprise for me. If there can only be one Emmy nominee for AHS (as if...), then I 'll choose Sarah over Jessica. Paulson is sooo amazing! Her exhilarating storyline plus the complexity and the insane events for her character definitely made Lana Winters one of the hilights for this season. Her minor role from season one did not give light to her talents, so it was really refreshing to see her acting prowess for this one. Job well done!

3. Lily Rabe as Sister Mary Eunice/ The Devil

 Last season, she was just the flailing and weeping ghost roaming around the house. Now, she's the devil. Sister Mary Eunice started off as this weakling nun who always follows orders from Sister Jude. But after the Devil possessed her - despite the knowledge of others, which was then discovered by Jude - she became one of the biggest antagonist for AHS:Asylum.





4.  Zachary Quinto  as Dr. Oliver Thredson

         He's Bloody Face for crying out loud. He was able to maintain a stable outlook without the others knowing that he's the serial killer behind all of these heinous crimes. When Lana found about this, Zachary Quinto did an amazing job portraying such an enraged and demented character like Dr. Thredson.

Top 10 Best TV Series of 2012


2012 is nearly over. And as the TV shows in America are now taking their usual holiday hiatus, I decided to give you my top 10 best TV shows of the year. This includes new and old shows which ran from January to December 2012. I am following 28 series this year so it's very difficult to evaluate each and choose MY creme of the crop. But I did my best.

I just have to remind you that this is my list - based on my own personal taste and criteria as an audience. I have not seen every show which aired this year so if your favorite is not here, that means either it's not worthy to be in the top 10 or I just do not watch it.

Anyway, here you go. 

Starting from...


TOP 1


BREAKING BAD SEASON 5 
(July - September)

Are you still even surprised? The first half of Breaking Bad's final season was phenomenal, amazing, exciting, and an instant classic. The preceding season took a lot of hype for its mind boggling and twisted plot, but season five started with a slow rhythm until it built up to some strong momentum halfway - and then bam, a jaw-dropping mid season finale. Season five of this award winning series from AMC is definitely one for the keeps. It may not be as perfect as season four, but I know the last eight episodes which would premiere next  year would kill our socks off. 

TOP 2



COMMUNITY SEASON 3 
(March - May)

Episodes 12 to 22 of Community seaosn 3 was such a blast, And the fact that fans all over the world had to endure such longing from January to March just for the second half of the season made it more worthwile. Community is, without a doubt, the funniest show on TV right now. Hands down.

TOP 3


HOMELAND SEASON 2 
(October - December)

I have to admit that the first season of Homeland was better than the second one. But the last 3 episodes of Season 2 put this show on top of my list. It was Homeland at its finest. Unexpected twists, Claire Danes' acting prowess, gut-wrenching plot. And I guess a good season finale is wherein the viewers will have no idea how the next season will go. Homeland delivered that. 

TOP 4


THE WALKING DEAD SEASONS 2 and 3
(February - March [2] and October - December [3])

Season two of Walking Dead was a... bummer. Thank god the plot thickened during the second half of season 2. Two major deaths  and a thrilling season finale. PLUS, the first 8 episodes of season 3 was turning out to be amazing. The Walking Dead does a good job at finding the balance of putting so much brutality and gore from the fighting sequences and the electrifying stories of the survivors while searching for humanity amidst this calamity. My most favorite line of the show so far (which I think can sum the entire series) was said by Maggie: "All this time running from walkers [zombies], you forget what people can do"

TOP 5


SHERLOCK SEASON 2
(January)

Sherlock's three-episode seasons are all 100% perfect - acting, cinematography, screenplay, direction, plot development. Season 2 was so much better the the previous one and the cliffhanger on the third episode killed me. Without a doubt, best British TV show right now. 

TOP 6



GAME OF THRONES SEASON 2
(April - June)

This show has over a dozen major characters yet each still have their moments of glory in this 10-episode per season series from HBO. When I was deciding what to be in my list, Game of Thrones was initially in my Top 10 because I felt that the second season was weaker and less compelling than the first. Daenerys' storyline, for example, was a huge disappointment due to the fact that her storyline in season one was the hilight of the show. I also felt that the characters, especially the Starks, are too apart from each other and there were not any connections that can justify the ending. However, upon realization, Game of Thrones did a bit well. The penultimate episode was the show's best and Arya's and Sansa's plots are very exciting to watch. 

TOP 7


PARKS AND RECREATIONS SEASONS 4 and 5
(January - May [4] and September - December [5])

Aside from Community, Parks and Rec is one of the most underrated comedy shows on TV. The second half of season four - the election campaigns and Leslie's victory - was quality television at its finest. Parks and Rec is poignant and funny, with a tinge of romance and political drama. I just wish people would appreciate this show more before it's too late.

TOP 8


SCANDAL SEASONS 1 and 2
(April - May [1] and September - December [2])

What a huge surprise in mainstream/local television. I believe that Scandal should be in a cable network to fully maximize its potential to be the next big hit. All the plots introduced are engaging and the characters are very well written. Shonda Rhimes surely did an amazing job with Scandal.

TOP 9


SCANDAL SEASON 5
(March - June)

Maybe you're wondering why Mad Men is in my bottom 2. The reason is simple: Season 5 did not meet the standards set by season 4. The latter was so amazing that people's expectations for the fifth season was really high. But thank god for Episode 9 and 10, it saved the show from demise. Mad Men is already considered a TV classic that's why every episode is a gem and every characters are precious. Many exciting things had happened in this season, but it failed to capture the harmonious growth o of the characters of that of the prior seasons.

TOP 10



GIRLS SEASON 1

At first glance, you think this is just your typical show about some white girls facing a couple of basic white girl problems - ala Mean Girls and Clueless. But boy, I was wrong. Girls is so much more than that. It offered a complex view of the lives of four teenage girls in New York as they face some complicated adult (and childish) problems. Yes, it may raise the eyebrows of some convservatists, but Girls proved to be the best teen show on TV right now. I can say that this is one of the best freshman show of 2012. PLUS, it's produced, directed, and written by the show's lead actress herself Lena Dunham. 



As an added bonus, I've decided to also include my Top 11 to 15 for you my readers!

TOP 11


THE NEW NORMAL
(September - December)

One of the best freshman shows of Fall Season 2012-2013. Although the married gay couple is already cliche in terms of television (ehem Modern Family ehem), the show has a strong ensemble and a very poignant and relatable screenplay.

TOP 12

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: ASYLUM
(October - December)

At first, it was a bit weird and wild... very wild. It's quite difficult to move on from the awesomeness that the first season brought last year. The setting for the second season of AHS is interesting (1960s, asylum), the number of characters and storylines were overwhelming which then became complicated. However, as the season progressed, the events became creepier, dreadful, and drop-dead intense. Plus, the actors (Lange, Rabe, Paulson, Quinto, etc) are all unbelievably and undeniably amazing. 


TOP 13

DOWNTON ABBEY Season 3
(September - November)

So many things had happened in the third season of this period drama from UK. It's not as good as the first season, but it's quite better than season 2. Also, the unexpected death of a major character, the conflict between Thomas and O'Brien, the unfortunate events in Sybil's life, and Mary and Matthew's marriage made this season a memorable one.


TOP 14

DEXTER Season 7
(October - December)

Give me this moment and let me rejoice for Dexter. Season 7 became soooo much better than the last two seasons. This season is not perfect (nothing - and I mean, nothing - beats Season 4), but the inclusion of Yvonne Strahovski in the casts made it worth watching. Also, I kinda' like how the Debb-Dexter plot went on. "He knows. She knows."


TOP 15

SUBURGATORY Season 1 and 2
(January - May [1] and October - December [2])

Just like The Middle, Suburgatory is always overshadowed by Modern Family. These shows are in the same network so it's quite difficult to battle an award winning just like ModFam. The second half of season 1 was very funny and season 2 is turning out to be great. Tessa became downright annoying she was in season one to a lovable and funny character.

Chevy Chase - OUT of Greendale 7

Despite a couple of allegations towards the actors and the producers' hate towards Chevy Chase and a few controversial setbacks on the set of Community because of the actor's attitude, the NBC sitcom has finally pulled out the plug on Chevy Chase as the mean and racist Pierce Hawthorne.

Just a few hours ago, it was announced that the former SNL cast member won't appear on Community season 4's final episode. 

It would be remembered that Community creator Dan Harmon had left the show after its junior run because of some problems in his contract and all that sheningan. But I'm pretty sure it was mainly because of his dispute with Chevy.

How will Pierce leave the show? Will he die? Or will he just decided to leave the study group? 

Is Pierce that much big of a change in the camaraderie between the Greendale7? I personally think yes. 

Good luck to your future endeavors, Chevy... if you still have any.

Shows I Give Up

Through the course of enjoying all of the TV shows I watch, it's inevitable to give up on some shows you used to love. For this post, I will share to you the TV series I have decided to stop watching due to some different reasons.

And I am telling you, choosing these is difficult for me. It's like breaking up with a girlfriend. Without further ado, check them out below. Oh, and to the shows I have to say adieu, it's not me... it's you.

Of Crickets and Affairs (Downton Abbey 3x08 Episode Eight Episode Review)

Downton Abbey had concluded its junior run with an episode which hilighted the solemness and grandeur of the writing, the direction, the actors, and of the scenery. 

Basically, the season three finale tied all untied knots from the past seven episodes, and also it gave us a glimpse of who may not return on the show for season four. UK's Most Watched Television Show really knows how to make viewers feel so much emotions for just an hour. However, I do believe that the finale could have been better. 

As a bonus, I'll share to you - my lovely readers - my top 5 most favorite storylines for this season of Downton Abbey. I think it's pretty amazing how a show with only few episodes every season introduce us to a lot of subplots for the lords, ladies, and servants of the manor.

La La La La Lalalalala (Suburgatory 2x01 Homecoming Episode Review)

Last night I had a pleasant nightmare.. La La La La Lalalalala

Well, the premiere episode of the second season of ABC's Suburgatory was not surely a nightmare. But it was hell lotta' pleasant. 

Bad Nurse (American Horror Story:Asylum Welcome to Briarcliff Episode Review)

That was a crazy wild ride!

American Horror Story: Asylum has finally opened its doors for a brand new ass-kickin' season. If the pilot episode of the show from last year made your minds jumble like there's no tomorrow, this premiere episode confused the hell out of all us. There were the usual scary elements, monsters, crazy characters, religion vs. science, and aliens.

Monday, October 15, 2012

Guns and Prison (The Walking Dead 3x01 Seed Episode Review)

Bang, bang, bang.

The Walking Dead's season opener surely, well, opened with a lot of bang.

The cold open set up the tone of the episode, and of the series - it was dark, fast paced, creepy, and downright outrageous.

Also, the third season premiere of AMC's The Walking Dead did a time jump which was really obvious in Carl's hair and Lori's belly. Another surprising and refreshing thing in this episode is all of the characters - even Carol - know how to use guns and kill zombies. They're not backing down, and as a team, they have one goal in mind: to survive.

Revenge is Green (Arrow Pilot Episode Review)

The CW's much awaited new series has finally premiered... and it was amazing.

Arrow is the modern retelling of DC Comic's Green Arrow, and obviously, it's a origin superhero series.

The show centers around Oliver Queen, who was stranded in an island after the yacht - which also carried his father and "sex friend" who then died - sank into the ocean. Five years later, after everyone thought he's dead, Queen was rescued. 

Friday, October 12, 2012

It all Changes ( The Vampire Diaries 4x01 Growing Pains Episode Review)

After a few months of waiting, TVD is finally back!

And it was good. The wait is totally worth it.

Let's do a quick recap shall we? 

Elena is now a vampire thanks to Dr. Pretty Little Liars, Klaus took Tyler's body, Damon is still in cahoots on Elena's decision that she chose Stefan... well, I guess that's pretty it.

Sherlockians (Elementary Pilot Episode Review)

 Ever since it was announced that an American adaptation of UK's Sherlock, fans all over the world went into clamor. Many people have complaint, even the creator and actors of the said British series, do not have anything good to say about this.

Another Door Opens (Once Upon A Time 2x01 Broken Episode Review)

After a long wait, Once Upon A Time is finally back!

The opener episode of the second season of the said show opened more doors of storylines that we could never have imagined. Instead of having answers from what happened in last season's finale, we were overwhelmed with more questions that had arisen.

Saturday, September 29, 2012

Everybody Leaves (Grey's Anatomy 9x01 Going Going Gone Episode Review)

Well... that was sad.

After the horrific events of last season finale's plane crash, the doctors onboard of the plane try to do their best to live normally and to forget what had happened to them. But for the two of them (with the exception of Lexie who died in the crash), moving on would be really really difficult.

Friday, September 28, 2012

Favoritism (The Middle 4x01x02 Last Whiff of Summer Episode Review)

I think it is safe to say that this premiere episode of The Middle season 4 is better than the entire third season of Modern Family.

Yup, it's that good.

Preggy Gloria (Modern Family 4x01 Bringing Up The Baby Episode Review)

The Emmys are over and while Modern Family has some celebration to do for taking home the Best Comedy Award for the third time in a row, the show is back to business.

The premiere episode of the fourth season of Modern Family began a day after the events of last season's finale. Gloria just found out that she's pregnant and the best day to announce it to her husband is during his birthday.

The Return of the Yellow Umbrella (How I Met Your Mother 8x01 Farhampton Episode Review)

The yellow umbrella has always been one of the biggest clues in the whole mother mystery in CBS' How I Met Your Mother. It has been a few years since we were given a glimpse of this object, and on the premiere of the 8th season of the said sitcom, the famous umbrella appeared once again.

The episode is divided into two timelines: the present and the future. 

The Mindian Project (The Mindy Project Pilot Episode Review)

I am deeply sorry for the title of this review post. I really want to be clever... but it turned out to be a bit racist.

Anyway...

The Mindy Project is starred in, written and produced by The Office's Mindy Kaling herself. This is her way to explore more facets of comedic writing after her years of stint as a writer and actress in her former NBC sitcom.

So, let's cut to the chase and check the list of winners below!

HOMELAND and MODERN FAMILY became the emperors of this year's Emmys as the said shows received most of he awards in their respective categories.

Moving Forward (The Office 9x01 New Guys Episode Review)

 On the premiere of the final season of The Office, the show finally did something we never thought a mock-documentary show like this would do... the camera men finally interacted with the casts (well, only with Jim and Pam).

I have entitled this review MOVING FORWARD because this is the episode's main focus are the characters' new ventures in life.

Emmy 2012 Dream Winners

The annual Emmy Awards for Primetime Television is very near already so I have decided to give you my dream winners for the ten major categories of the said award show.

Check them out below!

So... What Now (Revolution Pilot Episode Review)

I am really not sure what to feel about Revolution's pilot episode. With all the hype in the show and the credibility of the producers of it, episode one was placed between the lines of mediocrity and quality television. 

So many things had happened in this episode that it became difficult for me to divulge in the characters, especially to Charlie who's obviously the lead star of Revolution. There were fights and battles here and there that it seemed like I am watching a badly written movie where all the writers want is to give a number of unnecessary action packed sequences to the audience.

Tuesday, September 18, 2012

Tying Knots (Downton Abbey 3x01 Episode One Episode Review)

Are those wedding bells I hear?

Yes it is! Mary and Matthew finally tied the knots in Downton Abbey's third season premiere. But of course, this is Downton Abbey, it will not reach such joyous occasion without some\ bumps and blows along the way.

What Makes a Good Show?

This post will include my criteria of a good TV series. I have to point out that these are my opinions, therefore, some people (or you) might have different reasons on why they watch a particular show/s. 

After watching a lot - i mean a lot - of shows over the years, I got fully aware on what constitutes a show which gives  the viewers top quality TV experience. I became more critical and smart on the things I watch on TV. 

For clarity, I'll rank them from the most important down to the least.

1. Character Development

A mean girl cannot be a mean girl from the beginning until the end. A killer cannot just be a plain killing machine all throughout. How the audience perceive a certain character must change or deepen as the series goes on. These are just some examples of good character development. Obviously, this is solely based on the writers of the show, because if not for them, well.. then there will be no show in the first place. What I look forward to is when characters are constantly faced with circumstances which change their personality: either for the better of for worse. As the show progresses, the audience must able to further understand the characters.

Top 5 Most Favorite TV Series


I've been a TV buff since I was in grade school. I  have seen more than 70 TV shows in my life and I do not regret spending a lot of my time watching these. Of course, in this 70, I included those shows which got cancelled early or those which I just decided not to watch anymore.

Since I am bored, I decided to share to you my Top 5 Most Favorite TV Series. It is unbelievably hard to choose my top 5, but nah.. who cares.

Time Bomb (Breaking Bad 5x8 Gliding Over All Episode Review)



Walter White is, as we all know, is a ticking time bomb. And what's worse about bombs? When you think it will explode, it will not. But when you least expect it... prepare to die.

Disclaimer: If you have not seen the midseason finale of Breaking Bad, do not proceed. If yes, go on!

Veep: The Verdict


Imagine NBC's Parks and Recreation in a much much bigger environment. 

HBO's freshman comedy series VEEP revolves around, well, the veep or the vice president of the United States of America Selina Meyer which is played by  by the amazing Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

The show offers a straightforward comedy. It may not have tickled my funny bones at some moments but I surely burst out laughing on some. Obviously, the life of a vice president of a country can't be this funny and exciting. And I'm not sure if the real veep has an unbelievable desire to be the president.

The Newsroom: The Verdict



The Newsroom. The newest series from HBO which revolves around the people behind a fictional news network - ACN. The show centers on the  news anchor - Will McAvoy -  of the News Night.

As an added twist, the news being included/discussed in the show are real life news and the events on the lives of the characters are patterned and related on such news. 

For ten episodes, the audience were engulfed on these characters on how they struggle to face their personal and professional problems. To make the show less serious, the writer/creator - Aaron Sorkin - added some small yet effective humor which sometimes appeared as irrelevant and over the top. Despite all of these, The Newsroom was intellectually fulfilling and emotionally satisfying. The addition of relevant news and the inclusion of various perspectives of the "newsroom people" regarding a particular event are both riveting and fresh.

Another Hoodie Falls Down (Pretty Little Liars 3x12 The Lady Killer Episode Review)

On the summer finale of ABC Family's hit teen thriller Pretty Little Liars, another member of the A-Team has been revealed.


Disclaimer: If you have not seen the episode yet, please don't proceed. If yes or if you just want to spoil yourself, then read on!

Community of Friends (Go On Pilot Episode Review)

Go On...

Friends' very own Matthew Perry returned to the peacock network to do another half-hour comedy. Since Friends ended in 2004, Perry (and the rest of the casts) have been tumblin' to have a decent work after the show's 10 year run. Anniston became the hugest hit among the ensemble, followed by Cox, Kudrow and Le Blanc who all got their respective comedy shows. And now, Matthew Perry, who plays Chandler Bing in the aforementioned sitcom, pursued and produced another one after the failed single run of his "comeback" show, Mr. Sunshine in ABC. 

Go On is about Ryan, a sports radio broadcaster, whose wife died in an accident and after a month of mourning, must attend to a group therapy session with delinquents and deranged people in order to have his spot in the booth again.

Three Bald Men (Breaking Bad 5x01 Live Free of Die Episode Review)

The Breaking Bad season five premiere proved why it's still THE BEST TV SERIES right now (and of the decade). 

Walter White - our antagonist slash protagonist - is now egotistical and as evil as ever. He gets everything he needs and will do anything to have it... now that he's the new King of the meth "underworld".


The pemiere started with a huge flash forward to the future. We saw Walt, with some hair and a bushy beard, celebrating his 52nd birthday alone in a diner. Then, we found out that he already changed his identity. - he  became Mr. Lambert from New Hampshire. He took a key from the man who sells guns (Jim Beaver from Supernatural!) for a car which contains a large automatic gun and ammo. Where was he heading? Why did he have to change his name? Did he lose? Well, we won't know the answer to that now. 

And then..... back to the present.

Game of Thrones released new names for Season 3

photo by zap2it.com
During the San Diego Comic Con 2012, Game of Thrones introduced 14 new characters for the HBO's acclaimed fantasy drama's third season.

As if the world of Westeros (including its outskirts and beyond the Wall) can't get enough of more characters to be in trouble with. Who among the characters can be considered as friends or foes? 


Some of the new actors are familiar (well, at least for me), and most of them are given the break of a lifetime. 

Devon Sawa now a series regular for NIKITA season 3

The CW's Nikita promoted someone for a series regular.

After the surprising death of evil mastermind Percie on the season 2 finale, the creators of the always-on-the-bubble spy drama from The CW decided to take their game up a notch.

Devon Sawa, who plays the former Guardian of the black box Owen Elliot, will be joining the ass -kickin' casts of Nikita on its third season.

Owen has been appearing on the show since season 1 as a recurring character only.

The Walking Dead Season 3 Trailer is OUT!


The Walking Dead fans all over the world could not be any happier. During the 2012 San Diego Comic Con, AMC's hit thriller series The Walking Dead released their very first trailer for the said show's third run.

We saw most of the guys changed their hairstyles, the girls still looking messy as hell, and Laurie with her never ending complaints. And of course, THE GOVERNOR and MICHONNE are introduced. 

Merle is also back! And he doesn't seem to be a pigment of Daryl's imagination.

I cannot wait for this. I know you're very excited too.

The Walking Dead is set to premiere on October 14 only on AMC.

Patrick Wilson Gets in Bed with Girls

The now defunct show A Gifted Man's gifted man himself will be joining the casts of HBO's critically acclaimed comedy GIRLS in a multi episode arc as Hanna's new love interest. 

Patrick Wilson will play "a forty-something doctor who lives next door where Hanna works and becomes a potential love interest to Lena Dunham's character".

Does this mean the Hanna is officially over with Adam, as to what we've seen in the season 1 finale?  Or Wilson will just be a huge hindrance to the couple's moody love affair?

GIRLS season 2 is set to premiere on January 2013 only on HBO.

Jennifer Hudson will come to SMASH

Another American Idol alum joins the casts of SMASH.

Jennifer Hudson, season 3's 7th placer, has been reported to be joining the fun casts of SMASH for the show's second season.

The Oscar and Grammy winning actress/singer will appear in a multi-episode arc, and will play a "Tony winning Broadway star who's able to reach her dreams but unfortunately paid the price for it".

Hudson's character - Veronica - will affect the lives of Ivy and Karen... big time.

Is she a friend? or a foe?

Let's just hope that SMASH will not give too much focus on th guest stars department rather than improving  on their character and plot development.

Smash season 2 is set to premier on January 2013 on NBC.

Once Upon A Time promotes 2 New Regulars!





 The people of Storybrooke gets two more regular characters!

One Upon A Time recently announced that Emilie de Ravin and Meghan Ory are promoted as series regulars.

Emilie de Ravin plays Belle and we last saw her together with her love interest - Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold - as they bring magic to Storybrooke. 

On the other hand, Meghan Ory plays the hot waitress of Grandma's Diner and the fairy tale world's Red Riding Hood who alter egos as the big bad wolf.

The Pauly D Project: The Verdict

YEAH BUDDY!

Jersey Shore's very own DJ - PAULY D -  from Rhode Island is the first one of the casts to get his own spin-off show. Few weeks from now, Snooki and J-Woww's own spin-off will premiere, making them the second (and third) JS casts to have their own show.

The Pauly D Project. A reality show from MTV which features Pauly D, as he becomes a world class disc jockey in Las Vegas, together with his entourage/friends.

And you would've thought that there won't be that much drama in an all male casts? Well, you're wrong. The 30-minute show offers enough partying, fights, screaming, partying, smooching and partying. Oh wait, did I say partying?
