‘Fairly Legal’ 2.01 Recap: “It’s Nice to Be Fuzzy”

‘Fairly Legal’ 2.01 Recap: “It’s Nice to Be Fuzzy”

Have you ever completely forgotten that you’d programmed a certain show for a series recording, only to have a new episode show up on your DVR, seemingly from out of the blue? I had that experience on Friday with the season premiere of USA Network’s ‘Fairly Legal’. Honestly, I didn’t even realize that the show was already coming back for another season.

‘Covert Affairs’ 2.16 Recap: “Have Fun Working”

‘Covert Affairs’ 2.16 Recap: “Have Fun Working”

Yes, ‘Covert Affairs’ is still on the air, and yes I’m still watching. I can’t pretend that it’s a great show, but it’s passively entertaining enough that I’m still with it. Last week, the series had its second Season 2 finale. As some viewers may recall, the season started in the summer, took a break for a few months, and then picked up again in November.

‘Psych’ 6.07 Recap: “Have a Few Drinks Back at My Shateau”

‘Psych’ 6.07 Recap: “Have a Few Drinks Back at My Shateau”

I don’t feel the need to recap ‘Psych’ very often. Though I enjoy it, the show isn’t Day One, or even usually Week One viewing for me. However, when The Shat guest stars in an episode, and he plays Juliet’s father (!)… well, that merits taking note of.

‘Covert Affairs’ 2.11 Recap: “It Seems Like I’m in a Bit of a Losing Streak”

‘Covert Affairs’ 2.11 Recap: “It Seems Like I’m in a Bit of a Losing Streak”

The USA Network wants to make its summer series ‘Covert Affairs’ into a fall series. This seems like a mistake to me. Even at its best, the show is lightweight, disposable fluff that skirts by in the summer months due mostly to a lack of competition from any major network heavy-hitters. It doesn’t seem suited to the stiffer competition of the fall. Nevertheless, after a few months off since its August “summer finale,” the series returned this week with a new fall premiere episode. Is the show ready to play with the big kids now?

‘Psych’ 6.01 Recap: “Suck It, Hyphens!”

‘Psych’ 6.01 Recap: “Suck It, Hyphens!”

Is ‘Psych’ really starting its sixth season? I can hardly believe that it’s been on the air this long. I mean, I like the series and all, but the concept seems like something that would eventually play itself out. With last week’s new season premiere, is the show finally beginning to feel the weight of its age?

‘Suits’ 1.12 Recap: “I Win. It’s What I Do.”

‘Suits’ 1.12 Recap: “I Win. It’s What I Do.”

‘Suits’ is definitely my favorite new show from this summer. I had little to no expectations for it going in, and it really surprised me. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to recap the last few episodes due to time commitments, but suffice it to say that they were all really good. The show aired its first season finale last week, and I feel that’s worth covering.

‘Burn Notice’ 5.12 Recap: “We’ll Pick This Up Again in the Morning”

‘Burn Notice’ 5.12 Recap: “We’ll Pick This Up Again in the Morning”

I always forget that ‘Burn Notice’ breaks up its seasons. The show has a summer finale and then comes back after a brief hiatus for a few more episodes and the fall finale. Yeah, it’s confusing, I know. I’ve spent all five years watching this show and still forget that it does this. This past week was the summer finale. What did you think?

‘Burn Notice’ 5.11 Recap: “You’re Making a Big Mistake”

‘Burn Notice’ 5.11 Recap: “You’re Making a Big Mistake”

‘Burn Notice’ is really starting to come into its own this season. The show is messing with the formula ever so slightly, but it’s working. Now Michael finds himself in some very hot water, but let’s get to the recap first, shall we?

‘Burn Notice’ 5.10 Recap: “Shedding a Little Blood for the Cause”

‘Burn Notice’ 5.10 Recap: “Shedding a Little Blood for the Cause”

Michael’s getting sloppy and it’s starting to show. The ‘Burn Notice’ team finally found the hideout of the man who framed Michael, and Michael let him slip right through his fingers.

‘Burn Notice’ 5.09 Recap: “If You’re Lying, I’ll Kill You”

‘Burn Notice’ 5.09 Recap: “If You’re Lying, I’ll Kill You”

Last week’s episode of ‘Burn Notice’ was half good, and half not so good. I like the storyline with Michael and Sam kidnapping a bomb maker to find out what he knows about Michael’s situation, but Jesse and Fiona’s extracurricular job really gets on my nerves.
