George (Scott Porter) is given the responsibility of watching Tansy’s (guest star Mircea Monroe) most prized possession, her dog, but panics when the dog goes missing. Wade (Wilson Bethel) starts to feel frustrated by the lack of alone time with Zoe (Rachel Bilson), especially when she is focused more on not losing her good status in the town to a new doctor, Jonah (guest star Travis Van Winkle), who also happens to be Brick’s (Tim Matheson) nephew. Brick is ready to let the town know about his relationship with Shelby (guest star Laura Bell Bundy), but Lemon (Jaime King) and Magnolia (guest star Claudia Lee) are doing everything they can to get rid of her.

BONES: ‘The Doll in the Derby’ Recap

February 4, 2013 by  
Filed under Bones

Hey BONES fans! Last week, Marisa posted an interview with :The Doll in the Derby”‘s writer, Michael Peterson, where he discussed why the issue of Neurofibromatosis (NF) is near to his heart and an interview with Michaela Conlin (Angela) on how she prepared for her roller derby scenes. This episode had quite a bit of build-up, some of which was caused by the promo showing Angela laying a kiss on Booth.

How do you think the episode turned out? There is a lot to discuss, so let’s get to it!

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER’s Craig Thomas and Cobie Smulders Tease the Return of Robin Sparkles

February 4, 2013 by  
Filed under #1 featured, HIMYM, How I Met Your Mother

The legend of Robin Sparkles takes a dark turn in tonight’s brand new episode of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER.

“It’s definitely a HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER where it’s not like [there are] lots of fractured storylines that are unrelated to each other, which I like,” HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER co-creator Craig Thomas told me during a recent conference call. “I think a lot of our best episodes have one central theme, and this theme is obsession. What’s the fine line between love and obsession and can anyone be stalker-y? Could that happen to anyone? And everyone’s storyline falls under that one theme. So in the end, the story of Robin Sparkles and her new identity and her new song sheds light on the rest of the gang and where they fall on that line of crazy and love.”

And yes, the rest of the gang will be as thrilled as you’d expect to get another song from the former Canadian pop princess.

Comments Off on ‘We Have Thoughts’ Vodcast: Danielle and Marisa Talk About the FRINGE Finale

It’s no secret I had a lot to say about the FRINGE series finale, but believe it or not, there was still more to be said. (Okay, and let’s be real…I still have more to say even now after filming these. But I’ll spare you.)

My friend/vodcast partner-in-crime Danielle Turchiano (from Made Possible By Pop Culture) and I sat down and talked about what worked — and what didn’t — for us as FRINGE’s epic ride came to an end.

This is a bit long, we get a bit nerdy, but hope you enjoy!
