True Blood: S4 E2

3 comments
Show: True Blood
Season: 4
Episode: 2
Original Airing: July 3, 2011

WOW! The season picks up in just the second episode. True Blood Episode Two is where things begin to tie in and the drama is building. Gosh, I wish I could watch all the episodes in one night. Forget that one episode per Sunday. I'm eating my words about the "loosely" part of my episode one review.

I know this review is early, but if you seen the True Blood commercials on HBO you know that they had a special viewing for the second episode on their itunes app and various HBO websites. Luckily for you guys that are reading this I embedded the episode at the bottom of this post. It's uploaded at Megavideo so it's free to watch. Enjoy. As usually I make the plot review short and to the point, as many of you are going to be watching the episode yourself in just a few minutes if you have not seen it already.

True Blood Season 4 Premiere

Show: True Blood
Season: 4
Episode: 1
Original Airing: June 26, 2011


Last night I watched the season 4 premiere of HBO's hottest show since the Sopranos. The season is supposed to loosely follow the fourth book of the Sookie Stackhouse series.  So far I don't see any resemblances to the book besides the coven of witches.  But I digress, this season is sure to be full of surprises, twists, plenty of blood, and the sexy vamp Eric Northman.  I'll try and keep the episode summary short and to the point. 

The fairy world is everything you would think it sure be, right- magical people, beautiful woman, golden fruit, and goblins.... wait? Did I say goblins? The fairy world is not what it is supposed to be as Sookie soon finds out. The queen fairy is set on sealing off the fairy world from the human and she will not let Sookie escape. Good thing Sookie didn't eat the golden fruit! Sookie finds her long lost grandpa who is supposedly dead. At first he does not recognize her, because according to him Sookie is still a seven year old girl.  The Grandpa realizes that what seemed like hours was 20 years.

Charmed! Where Are They Now!?

0 comments
One of my favorite shows to come from Aaron Spelling along side Buffy The Vampire Slayer. The show was canceled in 2005, so it has now been 6 almost 7 years since then! Wow. How time flies.  Let's see what The Power Of Three has been up to recently.


Shannen Doherty
The lead sister, Prue,  left the show in the third season after reported arguments and disagreements between costar Alyssa Milano. We all know her from Beverly Hills, 90210 and the recent remake 90210, but other than that Doherty has been under wraps having only appeared in low budget television movies and guest appearances on various shows.

Back again folks with the fourth installment of Disney Flashbacks/ Where are they now?! I am thinking about making this like a monthly show/post until I do reports on all (most) the old Disney crew. If you would like me to do regular updates on the best stars Disney has ever had leave a comment telling me to do so. This post will focus on the old television Disney stars of the past instead of a mix of movie/television. Be sure to check out the other Disney Flashbacks. I will now be taking requests in the comment form below so if you have a Disney star that you always wondered where they are now and would like me to find out for you. You can post the request in any of the Disney Flashbacks but I prefer if you post in the newest addition of the series.  

1. Life With Derek (2005-2009)

Ashley Leggat
In 2009 Ashley stated that she would be starring in the new spin-off of Life With Derek called Vacation With Derek. The series aired June 25, 2010 in Canada and March 6, 2011.

0 comments
Show: Skins
Season: 5
Episode: 7
Original Airing: March 10, 2011

Yes I know I'm a little late for posting this episode of Skins but this was the worst season so far. My Gosh! What were the writers thinking when they wrote this. I just hope for us fans they have something big planned for season 6 to make up for the utter crap this season was. I mean the first episode looked so promising :( .  Anyway, I'm just going to post the episode summary from wiki instead of writing my own considering the I'm so late on the posting. I am also going to combine  E7 and E8 on one post.

Rich spends the night at Grace's house to find that her father is Professor Blood. Mr and Mrs Blood discover Rich trying to sneak out across the garden, to Mr Blood's great disaproval. Mr Blood then drives Grace to school, telling her that she can live her life however she pleases, but if her grades drop she will be forced to go to boarding school. Grace is directing Twelfth Night for a college examination, all of the gang are involved, but Liv makes Matty quit the play with her when a love scene between Matty and Franky makes her suspicious. Grace invites her to a girl's night in to reassure her that everyone still loves her. Later, Professor Blood calls Rich into his office and tells him that he can make Rich's life easier if he purposefully acts badly in the play to make Grace fail, leading her to being sent away. Rich goes to dinner at Grace's house - it is very awkward and Rich tells Grace that he feels like she acts different with her parents. The girls then come over and end up taking cocaine. Mini then brings up the question of Franky's sexuality, and Franky says she's just into people. Liv suspiciously asks her who she is into at the moment, but Grace changes the subject. They all go to a club, meeting up with Matty and Rich. Mini and Franky approach two unnattractive men as a laugh, but one man becomes too forward with Franky. Matty sees and tries to intervene, ending up in an argument with Liv. Rich is drunk and vomits in the club. Grace tries to take him home, when Rich says that he doesn't know the real Grace and walks home angrily by himself. They continue the argument in the morning at rehearsal, where Rich confesses that he doesn't know if they are right for each other. Later, while reciting from Hamlet, Grace gains confidence and makes Matty rejoin the play, where he says that he loves Liv. Grace then goes to Liv where Liv reveals insecurities about what the group think of her. During the assessed performance of the play, Liv goes backstage and questions Matty on whether he loves Franky. Matty can't answer. Liv tells him that he must forget about her. After the play, Grace's parents inform her that she is going to be sent to boarding school anyway, ending with her arguing with both them and Rich. At night, Rich goes to Grace's house and serenades her with lines from Romeo and Juliet. Once in her room, through tears he asks her to marry him. She replies with Miranda's speech from the Tempest: "O wonder! How many godly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world! That has such people in it"

Rich prepares for his forthcoming wedding by getting a new haircut - but he's misunderstood by the hairdresser, who gives him the 'Justin Bieber' style. Meanwhile, Franky gives Grace a wedding dress that she's made for her and a wedding cake that her adoptive father baked, while Liv and Mini do Grace's hair and make up. Mini begins to realize that she has a crush on Franky, and goes round to Matty's house to tell him to 'stay away from her'. Mini becomes increasingly overprotective of Franky throughout the episode. The gang set off on the long journey to the church in Alo's van. However, the van crashes, causing Franky to fall on top of Matty. Matty hands Franky a note, saying that his feelings for her are 'something that he can't stop'. The gang take drugs, before Grace & Rich manage to get a lift to the church with a hippy couple, leaving the others to walk the rest of the way. Professor Blood has found out by this time that Grace has left (he's fitted her with a tracking device) and has set off to find her. Franky discovers that Mini went to Matty's house, and leaves Mini with Alo and Nick. She carries on the journey with Liv and Matty, and they end up in a village hall, where they steal wine. Liv feels Franky up to see Matty's reaction. Meanwhile, Nick gets his foot stuck in a rabbit trap. Liv and Matty fight, causing Franky to leave. Matty runs after her, and they end up nearly having sex, but Franky has a panic attack and runs off a cliff. She almost falls, but Mini, Liv and Matty find her and pull her to safety. She reveals just how insecure she is to the others, and how she feels 'different'. Eventually, they all get to the church, but Professor Blood turns up. Grace and Rich decide that they won't get married and will just stay as a normal couple. The gang round off the day at a local gig, where Matty and Liv decide to break up amicably, and Franky and Matty share a hug.

Season: 5
Episode: 6
Original Airing: March 3, 2011

Yes I know I didn't cover episode five of this season but I really just wasn't in the mood to blog that day. So maybe I'll fit it in later, or not. I got all of screen caps. So yeah! For some reason I didn't like this episode too much. It just fell a little flat compared to the other Skins episodes.  Definitely not my favorite. 


It's Alo's birthday, but his parents don't care. Instead of letting him hang with his friends in town they make him work on the farm. Alo's dad and farmhand try to teach him how to drive a tractor but things don't go as planned and Alo's dad lets him run off to be with his friends. His domineering mother finds out and plans to withdraw him from college. She succeeds and Alo must work at the farm. Instead of doing his tasks he hides in Bessy's, the cow,  stable. While smoking he accidentally drops his light onto a tank of propane, blowing Bessy and most of the stable up. His mother and father take everything of Alo's to be sold, including his beloved dog and van. Angry and pass the point of no return, Alo fills condoms with his family's entire flour and egg produce and invites the gang over for a flour and egg fight. After the fight the gang calls most of the college over for a party with the intent of trashing the house. At the party, Mini reveals that she knows that Franky is in love with Maddie. Franky is flirted with by a total stranger who she ends up pushing away. He calls her a dike. Nick confronts the guy as Franky storms off. Liv tries to console her and asks about her sexuality. Liv sees Franky is clearing uncomfortable with the question so she drops the it. Alo's parents arrive to a trashed house and a hundred teens running away from the house after Alo revealed that his father had guns. Alo confronts his father for being a pussy whipped bitch, in layman's terms. Lol.  Alo's dad collapses on the ground due to medical problems unknown to Alo till now. 

Alo goes to Nick's house and sits next to Mini who comforts him. Alo leaves saying shes "alright". Franky walks upstairs to see Matty and Liv having sex in the bathroom, she leaves in tears. Mattie sees her but doesn't mention it to Liv.  Alo walks to Rich's house with the intent of them running away together like they had talked about in earlier years. Rich is excited to say that him and Grace finally did it and that being grown up is the shit. Alo leaves without telling Rich the reason he came. At the hospital, Alo sees his dog. The farmhand divulges that his father had stood up to the mother and stopped her from getting rid of the dog. Alo returns home to his mother and promises to "grow up", and demands for her to be less of an control freak. At the end of the episode Alo and his father have mended their relationship.
