The campaign gets started. Hilarious. Especially the sequence on the ice. Laughed so much. Wonderful. 10/10
"It's true. I no longer have highly trained, professional campaign managers. So what? Are most murders committed by highly trained, professional assassins? No, they're committed by friends and coworkers! [pause] That analogy was way better in my head." Leslie Knope, Parks and Recreation
Parks and Recreation 4.11
Mission: Impossible 094
(Anthony Zerbe, Julie Gregg) Ingenious scheme. Great work from Leonard Nimoy in this one. 7/10
Get Smart 04
(spy school) Pace is slow, but there are a couple of good gags in here. And Barbara Feldon is sexy in a tie. 5/10
Breaking Bad 3.6
(David Costabile) Walt & Jesse in the RV with Hank outside. Superb! Pay off for weeks of build-up. Edge-of-seat stuff 10/10
Boss 1.2
Love the political booby trap, set using the Jeff Hephner character. But, in general, really loving all characters/storylines 9/10
Boss is so good I wish it didn't have the illness storyline. Yet, the illness underscores everything and makes it more meaningful. #dilemma
Entourage 3.19
(Brett Ratner) Strong plots. Turtle's attempts to date a girl with a strict father probably most unusual for this show. 9/10
The Six Million Dollar Man 2.10
(Sharon Farrell) Complete departure from formula. Great performance from Lee Majors. Serious story, with dark undertones. There's a bit too much stock footage, and some VERY poor quality images in the crowd scenes at the end. But... it really doesn't matter. This is one of the show's best stories. 10/10
Sharon Farrell gives a terrific performance, also. Plus she's just jaw-droppingly gorgeous in just about every scene (check out those jeans, grrrowl!). Very interesting lady. When I was 9 years old she was a regular on Hawaii five o and I've been a fan ever since.
One thing I sure know how to do is carry a torch for a VERY long time :)
The Rockford Files 4.5
(mob vs. cia) Lots of screentime for Stuart Margolin, an elaborate plot and some hilarious scenes. Perfect. 10/10
"It's a piece of cake now. You did get a partial license plate number. And you said the van was brown or dark red. Or black or gray. Or green." Jim Rockford, The Rockford Files
Burn Notice 3.16
(Garret Dillahunt, John Mahoney) Departure from formula, lots of action, good guest star, witty dialogue. Fun. 7/10
NCIS: Los Angeles 1.7
(Vyto Ruginis) Linear plot, backstory on the lead character, more screentime for (the very hot) Daniela Ruah. 7/10
Happy Endings 2.2
(Jane's kid) Great episode for Eliza Coupe fans. (Like me.) Incredibly fast pace. So, so many jokes. 9/10
Pan Am 1.8
(Harris Yulin) Departure from formula. Instead of glossy, escapist soap we get a thriller. Plus Karine Vanasse is the lead. 10/10
Treme 1.2
Short scenes, faster pace than first part. Really liking these characters. Short, brutal, violent scene near end = shocking. 7/10
Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia 6.1
(Brittany Daniel) The Gay Marriage Episode. Wow. Uniquely 'Always Sunny'. Just wonderful. 9/10
The Fantastic Journey 1.4
(Lord of the Flies)Story is okay, if a bit slow. Makes good use of all regular cast. Main guest star is good. 6/10
Flying Blind 1.14
Neil-centric episode that is (a) very funny, (b) rather thoughtful. If a show must be revamped, this is how to do it. 9/10
Human Target 2.1
(Tahmoh Penikett) Story is okay. Some good action set pieces, tho, and a cool Guerrero torture scene. 7/10
Justified 1.2
Good story, well told. Quirky, funny. Show seems to have it's own, slow style. Folksy is probably the word. 7/10
Good Dog 1.6
(Alan Peterson, hitman) Hilarious story idea, and done in a way only Ken Finkleman could do. GREAT ending. 9/10
In Plain Sight 4.5
(D. W. Moffett) Breaks from formula, with Mary going undercover, etc. Fine. But I prefer the 'typical' episodes. 6/10
The Good Wife 2.7
(Laila Robins) Lackluster case-of-the-week. Good b-plots, however: Peter's election campaign and law office politics. 7/10
The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret 1.1
Hilarious script. Plus David Cross and Will Arnett . Can't go wrong. 9/10
Sgt. Bilko: The Phil Silvers Show 1.12
(Glee) Slow start. Breaks formula (Bilko works against his men). Some good gags, just not many. 5/10
Alias Smith and Jones 2.14
(Craig Stevens) Puzzling murder mystery (Kid Curry is prime suspect) with elaborate, satisfying conclusion. 9/10
House 7.6
(Jack Coleman) Watching the regulars react to new regular Amber Tamblyn makes them interesting for first time this season. 7/10
