Stars: Ginnifer Goodwin, Jennifer Morrison, Robert Carlyle, Lana Parrilla, Jared Gilmore, Josh Dallas, Raphael Sbarge Writer: Vladimir Cvetko & David H. Goodman Director: Ralph Hemecker Network: ABC, Sunday nights, 8 p.m. Original Telecast: March 25, 2012 How much you like “Hat Trick” will depend a lot on how you define Fairy Tales. If you believe that ONCE UPON A TIME should restrict itself to Grimm, Andersen and maybe folklore, then you’re not going to like this episode. If you’re fine with including any Disney property involving magic (and you know it will all be Disney), then this dabble into the world of Wonderland will be just fine, especially since we’ve […]Read On »

One, the central mystery of finding Emmet Cole (Bruce Greenwood) has been resolved. Done. Two, the series seems to have found a way to do a different horror movie each week while still dealing […]Read On »

TV Review: CASTLE – Season 4 – “A Dance With Death”

Stars: Nathan Fillion, Stana Katic, Susan Sullivan, Molly Quinn, Tamala Jones, Seamus Deaver, Jon Huertas, Penny Johnson Jerald Writer: Moira Kirland Director: Kevin Hooks Network: ABC, Monday nights, 10 p.m. Original Telecast: March 19, 2012 As Tom Bergeron noted in his sign-off on DANCING WITH THE STARS Season 14 premiere this week, that “A Dance With Death” aired after DWTS‘ season premiere was probably not a coincidence. Because this episode of CASTLE just happens to take place at a dance competition show. Synergy, indeed, Mr. Bergeron. And, as CASTLE episodes go, it’s pretty much business as usual. Author Richard Castle’s (Nathon Fillion) mother, actress Martha Rogers […]Read On »

Exclusive Interview: Daniel Zacapa on THE RIVER and the Season 1 Finale

By ABBIE BERNSTEIN 03/20/2012

In ABC’s THE RIVER (which airs its Season 1 finale tonight), a mixed group of documentary filmmakers and other personnel voyage along the unknown byways of South America’s mighty Amazon in search of a missing naturalist. They find plenty of supernatural peril along the way. Of course, they wouldn’t get very far without an engineer, which is where Daniel Zacapa’s character Emilio Venezuela comes in. Zacapa in reality was born in Honduras and employs a Honduran accent as Emilio. It’s therefore a little startling to meet Zacapa and discover that his everyday accent is standard U.S. Zacapa is attending ABC’s […]Read On »

TV Review: ONCE UPON A TIME – Season 1 – “Heart of Darkness”

By ANNE LOUISE BANNON 03/19/2012

Stars: Ginnifer Goodwin, Jennifer Morrison, Robert Carlyle, Lana Parrilla, Jared Gilmore, Josh Dallas, Raphael Sbarge Writer: Andrew Chambliss & Ian Goldberg Director: Dean White Network: ABC, Sunday nights, 8 p.m. Original Telecast: March 18, 2012 At last, we’re getting somewhere. Last week, I complained that ONCE UPON A TIME was getting bogged down in back stories. Not this week. In “Heart of Darkness,” we’re actually moving the plot along – to a very scary and odd place, admittedly. So maybe the writers haven’t written themselves into a corner, after all. The episode starts with Prince Charming (Josh Dallas) on the run from King George, searching for Snow […]Read On »

TV Review: MISSING – Season 1 – “Pilot” – Series Premiere

By RACHEL REITSLEFF 03/17/2012
Sean Bean, Ashley Judd, Cliff Curtis, Adriano Giannini, Nick Eversman and Tereza Voriskova in MISSING - Season 1 | ©2012 ABC/Bob D'Amico

Stars: Ashley Judd, Sean Bean, Cliff Curtis, Adrian Giannini, Nick Eversman, Keith Carradine, Aunjanue Ellis, Gina McKee, Laura Donnelly Writer: Gregory Poirier, series created by Gregory Poirier Director: Stephen Shill Network: ABC, Thursdays @ 8 PM Original Airdate: March 15, 2012 CIA field agents are widely imagined to be able to do anything. MISSING takes this notion, combines it with the ferocity of a mother’s love for her child, then sets the premise – and leading lady Ashley Judd – loose all over Europe. Judd plays Rebecca Winstone, who we meet as she talks on the phone to her beloved […]Read On »

Interview: Cliff Curtis goes CIA on MISSING

By ABBIE BERNSTEIN 03/15/2012
Cliff Curtis in MISSING - Season 1 | ©2012 ABC/Bob D'Amico

A mother in search of her kidnapped son can be formidable. A mother in that situation, who also used to be a CIA field agent, can be the proverbial unstoppable force. Certainly, that’s the case with Ashley Judd’s MISSING character Rebecca Winstone, who has raised her son Michael (Nick Eversman) alone ever since the death of Nick’s father, Rebecca’s husband and fellow CIA agent Paul Winstone (Sean Bean, see in flashbacks throughout the series). Naturally, the CIA isn’t too thrilled with the idea of one of their own, albeit retired, deploying her Agency skills around the globe. European station chief […]Read On »

ABC’s freshman comedy SUBURGATORY, which runs Wednesdays at 8:30 PM, has already been renewed for a second season. The show, created by Emily Kapnek, is genuinely funny and features a great cast, headed up by Jane Levy as teenage protagonist Tessa Altman. Tessa’s well-meaning dad George (Jeremy Sisto) has moved the family from Manhattan to the suburbs, where Tessa’s high school is full of suburban mean mall girls. Many of the girls are interested in hunky male classmate Ryan Shay, played by Parker Young. The 23-year-old actor has an extensive resume in television and film, but SUBURGATORY is his first […]Read On »

Stars: Bruce Greenwood, Joe Anderson, Leslie Hope, Eloise Mumford, Paul Blackthorne, Thomas Kretschmann, Daniel Zacapa, Shaun Parkes, Paulina Gaitan, Scott Michael Foster, Katie Featherston Writer: Soo Hugh Director: Kenneth Fink Network: ABC, Tuesdays @ 9 PM Original Broadcast: March 13, 2012 Now here’s THE RIVER as it should be – a harrowing, complicated cross-cutting horror nightmare with fast-paced scares and more mysteries thrown in to the mix. “The Experiment” lives up to the promise of what the series should have been from the start – a non-stop thrill ride filled with scares and well-placed gore. At the end of “Doctor […]Read On »

TV Review: ONCE UPON A TIME – Season 1 – “Red-Handed”

By ANNE LOUISE BANNON 03/12/2012
Meghan Ory in ONCE UPON A TIME - Season 1 - "Red-Handed" | ©2012 ABC/Jack Rowand

Stars: Ginnifer Goodwin, Jennifer Morrison, Robert Carlyle, Lana Parrilla, Jared Gilmore, Josh Dallas, Raphael Sbarge Writer: Jane Espenson Director: Ron Underwood Network: ABC, Sunday nights, 8 p.m. Original Telecast: March 11, 2012 There is something vaguely unsatisfying about the “Red-Handed” episode of ONCE UPON A TIME. It could be my mood, but the episode feels like more back story than actual moving along of the plot. Yes, I get that when you’re trying to spin a tale over the course of multiple seasons, you don’t want to play your cards too fast. Fair enough. But after a while, the returns start diminishing. Sure, it’s nice to know how Grumpy got […]Read On »
