‘Alcatraz’ 1.13 Recap: “A Devil Is Always Neede
So here we are, at what may likely be the end of the line for ‘Alcatraz’. Does the season’s final episode resolve all, or at least some of the show’s major mysteries? Or does it, like so many other “bubble” series, leave us with a...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.12 Recap: “There’s No Time E
Fox’s new sci-fi/mystery drama ‘Alcatraz’ aired its season finale (and given the show’s ratings performance, quite possibly series finale) on Monday. Since the two-hour event was clearly divided into two separate episodes, I’ll li...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.11 Recap: “Listen to That Little F
We’re coming up quickly on the ‘Alcatraz’ season (possibly series?) finale. As I understand, the show’s ratings aren’t so hot. Let’s hope that the producers offer at least some answers to the big mystery in next week’s two-hour cl...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.10 Recap: “Bon Appetit, You Sons o
If I’m running late again with a recap of last week’s episode of ‘Alcatraz’, that’s not entirely my fault this time. My DVR failed to record the episode for some reason. As far as I’m aware, the episode wasn’t pre-empted and I did...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.09 Recap: “Time to Enter the Jungl
It’s interesting that Fox wound up having to run these specific two episodes of ‘Alcatraz’ as a (previously unplanned) double-bill on the same night, because they feature one of the few instances of direct continuity from one epis...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.08 Recap: “I’m Not a Fan of
Last week’s scheduled episode of ‘Alcatraz’ was pre-empted for NASCAR, a little fact that Comcast didn’t bother to update its cable guide about. I discovered this the hard way when I went to watch my DVR’ed recording of the series...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.07 Recap: “The Future Is Now”
Prepping for last night’s Oscar Live-Blog took up far too much of my time last week. Consequently, I once again let myself fall behind in TV viewing and recapping. That’s a problem, because my DVR is about to overload and start de...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.06 Recap: Won’t You Be Mine?
Mad bomber plots are a staple of many crime shows. But a time-traveling serial landmine bomber… ? Well, that’s the kind of twist that ‘Alcatraz’ puts on the old formula.
‘Alcatraz’ 1.05 Recap: “You Don’t Belong
Once again, I’ve almost fallen behind in my coverage of ‘Alcatraz’. I’d like to throw together another recap before the new episode airs tonight, because last week’s ep had some important developments for the show’s mythology stor...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.04 Recap: “Take the Bank”
As a result of our crowded post schedule last week, I didn’t have a chance to throw together a recap of last Monday’s episode of ‘Alcatraz’. Let’s try to get that done before tonight’s new episode airs. What, you expected us to ta...
‘Alcatraz’ 1.03 Recap: “I Know What Happens Nex
Last week, Aaron wasn’t so entranced with the two-episode premiere of Fox’s new supernatural/sci-fi/mystery procedural thriller ‘Alcatraz’. I liked it better than he did. Since Aaron’s off at Sundance this week, and he didn’t expr...
