Ah the sweetness of summer is definitely upon us. My #4 favourite show of last year (the only comedy on the list, FYI) has returned with fresh episodes. And what’s that sound, you ask? Why it’s cheerleading beyotch Sadie (Molly Tarlov) celebrating our return with a dismissively condescending “You’re welcome.”
Oh, Awkward., I’ve missed you so much.

We also got to see more of the girls, but they still feel like a side story on this show

We’re tackling a double dose of Teen Wolf this week to make up for last week’s absent review, so dig in because two episodes of the show means double to dosage or love…and subtle mockery.

It’s a very special episode of Lost Girl in that the entire “case of the week” is completely forgettable. So put that aside and we’ll just focus on the important stuff, shall we?

After detouring last week with a non-Liber8 centric episode, Continuum returns to its bread and butter as the terrorist group gets personal. Oh, and we’re finally facing a significant sci-fi dilemma.

America’s not the greatest nation in the world anymore, but it can be, according to Aaron Sorkin Will McAvoy and Mackenzie MacHale. Likewise, The Newsroom doesn’t have the most compelling premiere episode in television history, and it isn’t even the best pilot of a Sorkin series. Yet with an engaging news program grounding the narrative and cast committed to their work, there’s enough promise in the pilot to recommend the series.
