Mystical Magick

What can we expect from the two-hour Chuck series finale? What’s the secret behind Grimm’s mysterious Captain Renard? And what about Nick’s friend and partner Monroe? Will the Observer’s message about Olivia’s death come true on Fringe? Could death be coming to Nikita? (more…)

There’s this rule in the television world that a couple can only be happy for so long before something or someone needs to come around and muck it up. This week on Nikita we get to meet that someone in the form of a woman from Michael’s past.

It’s sad because while Nikita and Michael have made it their sole mission to fight the wrongs of the past, as they glance back through the “Looking Glass”, it seems those sins aren’t content to let them be free. (more…)

With the third episode of Nikita, the show has finally hit its stride for the season. The two sides of the game are now established (Amanda’s Division vs Nikita), and all the pieces (Alex, Birkhoff, and Michael) have solidified their places on the board.

So in “Knightfall” it’s time to raise the stakes. Nikita and Alex both have pasts they regret, and this week that’s coming back to haunt them. Will they be able to pull the trigger and put them to rest, or will they lose themselves in the process? (more…)

In the season premiere of Nikita, we were re-introduced to our heroes and shown how everyone’s been dealing with all the changes from the finale. So after such a spectacular opening episode, I just knew the second one wouldn’t live up to my expectations.

While “Falling Ash” saw the return of Owen to the fold, which I’m always happy about, it was the sub-plot of the episode I wasn’t too interested in. This is going to make those of you who know me laugh, but I thought mind control was just too X-Files for a show that has so far prided itself on spy games. (more…)

Nikita is one of the best shows you’re not watching. In just its first season, we saw Nikita plotting to take down Division, the discovery of her mole Alex’s past, and enough twists and game changes to drive us all crazy with anticipation.

And now they’ve done it again with the aptly titled “Game Change,” a premiere that makes the show feel brand new once again.  It really was a worthy successor to The Vampire Diaries on Thursday, but I’m just happy to have it back, even if it is on Friday nights. Now everyone needs to watch this show, so we can talk about it!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but summer is officially coming to an end. Schools are back in session, the pools are closing, and the good weather is wrapping up. But since I also like to be the bringer of good news: There’s less than two weeks left until the fall tv season returns! Aren’t you excited?

Starting September 13th, the fall crop of shows will be making their way to our tv sets. And in anticipation, I wanted to take a look at my top five new and returning shows. Plus, if you’re fretting about catching up, I’ve left my top five episodes you’ll want to see first. (more…)
