Opinion: Cougar Town, The Closer, House, Castle

23 Oct 2009 14:15:00 PDT

Written by podcast@mail2tv.com (RikerDonegal)
05.30 Cougar Town 06.00 The Closer 07.00 House 08.00 Castle Cougar Town. Episode 3. "Don't Do Me Like That" 10th date jitters. The first episode to write Jules as more than just an older lady trying to reclaim her youth. This one is more about her tendency to help everyone in her life and put herself last. The Closer. Season 5, Episode 9. "Identity Theft" Brenda suspects that a murderer's confession is false, and she finds herself playing 'mother' for the first time. Sosie Bacon joins the cast and makes a great first impression as a 'daughter' for Brenda. I immediately liked the character and feel that this will be good for the show. House. Season 6, Episode 4. "Instant Karma" Rich guy, with sick kid. Castle. Season 2, Episode 4. "Fool Me Once" Con man.

Opinion: SPOILERS!

According to Lisa Edelstein, "[House and Cuddy are] a little complicated so far this season. We're not quite sure how to be in the same place at the same time emotionally." Easy! See, they can be in the same place at the same time emotionally when the writers put pen to paper and make it so. Right?

Opinion: House — Episode 4 (Season 6): “Instant Karma”

12 Oct 2009 21:03:08 PDT

Written by Scott
An interesting premise initially on this week’s episode of House, but a slight episode over all. It was in many ways a rehash of House vs God, only not as clever You’d think after six years, Jennifer Morrison would know how to pronounce ascites.

05 Oct 2009 20:29:11 PDT

Written by Scott
The medical mystery was good this week — lots of unexplained bleeding usually is — though not terribly original. It earns a B+. The final solution generally fit the symptoms, and had a nice twist, so earns another B+. I have mixed feelings about the medicine overall. Most of it was quite good, bu...

The main case of the week, meanwhile, involved a man (played by Ashton Holmes) whose left arm worked independently from his right – frequently doing the opposite to what he wanted. But this seemed more of a distraction for House… as was the impending wedding of Cameron (Jennifer Morrison)...

This episode took no prisoners. It opened with a dying man clinging to every breath he could take and ended with the funeral of a man who couldn't take anymore. (Here's the "House" creators and Kal Penn talking about the episode.) But when Foreman (Omar Epps) and Thirteen (Olivia Wilde) go to h...

Opinion: Mon, Mar 23, 09 - 30 Rock, Law & Order, House, Greek, Lost, Office

24 Mar 2009 17:02:00 PDT

Written by podcast@mail2tv.com (RikerDonegal)
Law And Order. Season 19, Episode 7. "Zero" Judge with Alzheimer's. House. Season 5, Episode 16. "The Softer Side" House is in a good mood. Despite being haunted by the feeling that I've seen all of this before, I must admit that this is quite a stong episode. The case-of-the-week is good, the storylines for Thirteen and House are both very good. In fact, I was disappointed that the House storyline (he tries Methadone to ease his pain) was resolved at the end of this episode and won't appear in future episodes. Hmm. Is this the first season without a decent story arc? Lost. Season 5, Episode 9. "Namaste" Our heroes try to fit into life on the island in 1977. The Office. Season 5, Episode 18. "New Boss" Idris Elba appears as Michael's new boss.

'House' review: Not everyone ready for 'Softer Side' of House

26 Feb 2009 18:38:06 PST

Written by Jennifer Thomas
There were subtle signs at first that something about House was different. He actually asked Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) if he could have the bagel left on Wilson's plate. That's not like House. Normally he's snatching food off the man's plates like Helen Keller in "The Miracle Worker." The...

Opinion: Thu, Dec 11, 08 - NCIS, House, Supernatural, Always Sunny, Night Court

11 Dec 2008 14:54:00 PST

Written by podcast@mail2tv.com (RikerDonegal)
House. Season 5, Episode 8. "Emancipation" House is a superb detective series. It has a lot going on, and operates on a few levels, but it is also a great detective series. This episode has two patients (two stories) and some great detective work by the doctors in charge (House and Foreman). The House-realises-what-is-going-on bit at the end is simply mesmerising. It pulls you in and delivers the goods, week after week. And this is one of the best. Night Court. Episode 5. "The Eye of the Beholder" Weakest episode so far. Bull is annoyed that people make assumptions about him based on his appearance. His reaction seems too extreme for the realistic tone this show has set in it's early episodes. The story is nicely concluded, but the episode is light on laug...

30 Rock. Season 3, Episode 4. "Gavin Volure" Steve Martin guests in a hilarious outing. It's hard to pick highlights when every minute of the episode yielded about two, but I particularly loved Liz's idea of a relationship (basically lots of TV watching and 'no funny stuff'). The Tracy story was a winner, too, but the absolute highlight of the episode was Kenneth performing street theatre. That, alone, makes this episode of my favourites. And House is genuinely lovesick over his feelings for (and kiss with) Cuddy in the previous episode. I honestly thought House was faking the whole thing to take her mind off the baby fiasco, but the final scene (of him standing on her doorstep) has me convinced.

03.00 The Closer 04.00 House 07.00 Harry O House. Season 5, Episode 4. "Birthmarks" Another classic. The case-of-the-week is every bit as strong as the departure-from-formula element of having House and Wilson drive cross country to House's dad's funeral. Wilson??!! Yeah, this fight didn't last any longer than the others! House and Wilson are starting to remind me of Duncan and Joe on Highlander. How many times did they fight and end their friendship? Lots. So many times that it eventually came to mean nothing. Never mind, it's great to see Wilson back. But - honestly - I miss the private eye guy! Best bit? House and the car keys (plus lamp). Highlight?
