So, for the past however many weeks, I started watching/have been catching up on The Vampire Diaries. And guys, that show is SO GOOD. I actually like several of the characters and everyone is attractive and THINGS ACTUALLY happen. But the worst part about my getting into VD (oh, that doesn’t sound right at all), [...]

Whew!  It’s been a rough two weeks without The Vampire Diaries to keep us stocked up on shirtlessness excitement.  I have to say, the #1 reason I’m so excited about this episode is because this is where we last left off: Young Harry Hamlin is back!!!!!! And he’s punching out hearts!!!  So let’s get on [...]

Hey guys! Badass contributor Meredith here to remind you that pilot season is upon us! This time last year, the upcoming network fall lineup resembled a bleak landscape of dudes piled on top of bros, a wasteland for the badass babes among us, with tons of shows about how it’s tough to be a man [...]

WHAT UP Y’ALL. I just drank two shots of espresso to insure that I have enough brain energy to analyze everything that happened in last night’s episode of RINGER. Which, in true CW form, consisted of some vaguely forboding hints, an awesome FACEPUNCH and a whole lot of anti-climatic moments. But before we get into [...]

I like how sometimes instead of an episode description, my DVR will just give a basic description of the show’s premise: four former friends are forced to work together . . . which is where it usually cuts off.  I like to think that there’s a whole community of Pretty Little Liars fans who tuned in [...]

This is the part of my recap where I write an intro, maybe make a joke or two. Maybe talk about what happened in last week’s episode. But Secret Circle isn’t exactly on my good list at the moment. Because I was taking a lovely nap and had to be rudely awoken from my blessed [...]

Happy Friday TVD fans!  I don’t know about you, but I always like to imagine, when I see the episode titles, what exactly said episode is going to be about.  It’s fun to be right sometimes, and then other times I’m COMPLETELY off (like with The New Deal, when I was certain the episode was [...]
