The return (hee hee – get it?) of ABC’s fairytale show starts off the final batch of new episodes for the season, which means that we should be tearing it up en route to the finale, right?

Fringe continues its annual trend of pushing limits in its 19th episode of the season. As we’ve seen in previous seasons, the 19th episode is usually the most ‘high-concept’ and mind-blowing episode of the season and ‘Letters of Transit’ does not disappoint. This week, we’re launched way into future in the year 2036 where the Observers have become rulers of the Earth.
Let’s take a closer look after the jump:

Look out! It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s… character growth! In the span of a single week, Liz decides to keep pursuing adoption, Jenna commits to Paul, and Jack successful sells defective couches.

Hey folks, remember six weeks ago when we were watching this great nighttime soap loosely based on The Count of Monte Cristo that starred that chick from Everwood and Brothers & Sisters? Obviously you do or else why would you be here? But you’d be forgiven if you had forgotten, since it’s been forevah since the last episode of the most addictive new TV show this season!

Back in the fall, Ringer was on most people’s radar with the return of Sarah Michelle Gellar playing dual roles in a taut, psychological thriller. The show was broody, soapy and adult. It had a great supporting cast. Fast forward twenty-two episodes later as Ringer airs its finale as a bubble show with a questionably murky future.

It was another frustrating episode this week on Smash, riddled with plot points that no one really cares about. There were a couple of saving graces, but on the whole, this episode was a dud.

Boy, the events of the season finale of Lost Girl feel like they just happened yesterday. Alright…maybe it was last week. Thanks to the miracle of Syfy picking up the show for the second season, which just happens to already be in the can, we simply carry on this week without pause!

The much hyped and long-awaited new show, Girls, by indie darling Lena Dunham, premiered Sunday night on HBO and it seems like people are losing their shit over it.

But let’s put all of that aside and really get into it. [Read more…]
