Testing Guardian Angels: We Preview DROP DEAD DIVA Season 4
The Lifetime dramedy series DROP DEAD DIVA continues to pose the question of whether it is wise to tempt fate and destiny by trying to recapture pieces of a life that one has lived before. For Jane Bingham (Brooke Elliott), formerly Deb until she hit the “return” button at Heaven’s gate and found herself back on Earth — but in possession of another woman’s body — the desire to reclaim the life she lost has been overwhelming. Unable to bear the loneliness of her new life, Jane revealed her body-switch secret to her best friend, Stacy (April Bowlby), and is constantly fighting temptation to tell her former boyfriend Grayson (Jackson Hurst) the same thing.

Summer TV Preview: LONGMIRE, A Story of Hats, Guns and Evil Lurking in the Hearts of Men
The name may sound innocuous, but LONGMIRE is a show worth checking out. It invites us into a modern tale in a sleepy western town where insidious evil lies beneath the surface. Starring Robert Taylor as Sheriff Walt Longmire, a man consumed by grief seeking solace in a bottle, he reawakens from his alcohol coma when a dead body is found. Murder has reared its ugly head in his backyard and it requires Walt to look at everyone around him in a new light. There’s his right-hand man, Deputy Vic Moretti (Katee Sackoff); his political rival, Deputy Branch Connally (Bailey Chase); his best friend Henry Standing Bear (Lou Diamond Phillips), and his rebellious adult daughter, Cady Longmire (Cassidy Freeman). Set in the fictional Absaroka County, the story is backdropped by the lush Wyoming mountains and plains — which is the perfect setting for a town that gets a sharp reminder that the root of all evil is man itself.
