Recap: THE AFFAIR is Rocked By a Larger Scandal
Noah doesn’t want to think of Alison as his mistress, or as Oscar so delicately puts it, “some married yuppie’s summer slut.”
Alison doesn’t want to think of herself as a drug dealer, or a concubine. For her, Noah is more than just a fling. He’s a way out of a century’s old drug smuggling business operating behind closed doors at Blue Water Taxi Dispatch.
In episode six of “The Affair,” Noah and Alison’s relationship fizzled out, and the ongoing tension between Oscar and the Lockharts was finally explained by the brothers’ shady entrepreneurship. [Read more…]

GREY’S ANATOMY Redux: Our Top 5 Moments From “Could We Start Again, Please?”
Season 11 | Episode 7 | “Could We Start Again, Please?” | Aired Nov 13, 2014
With the mid-season finale fast approaching this are starting to get heated at Grey Sloan Memorial. On this week’s episode Arizona (Jessica Capshaw) really had to prove herself and try her best not to crack under pressure, all while she was worried about Dr. Herman’s (Geena Davis) deadly brain tumor and her crumbling marriage. Maggie (Kelly McCreary) and Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) made great progress with their relationship and like always, Derek acted selfishly. (At least he redeemed himself at the end of the episode) Here are the top five things you need to know about this week’s episode of GREY’S ANATOMY.
Derek (Patrick Dempsey) almost ruined his sister’s chances of being head of neuro. He admitted that the reason he didn’t defend her to Chief Hunt (Kevin McKidd) was because he wanted the job for himself. Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) called him out on it and it brought up some horrific memories or Derek, flashbacks from the night his father was murdered.
Arizona (With the help of Karev {Justin Chambers}) saved the baby of Dr. Herman’s patient. Although the baby’s mother did not the survive surgery Arizona did everything right and did exactly what Dr. Herman would have done. After Nicholas D’Agosto’s character caused the patient to lose eight pints of blood.
Jo (Camilla Luddington) did one of her first solo surgeries and tried her best to remember every step Dr. Bailey taught her. After some worrying and help from Dr. Edwards (Jerrika Hinton) Jo was convinced she had missed a step and her patient was slowly bleeding into her stomach. Dr. Bailey scared Jo and made her think she might have hurt the patient but it was only because she was trying to teach her a lesson, in the end Jo executed the surgery perfectly.
Maggie and Meredith bonded!!!! This is huge!!! Maggie was in the on- call room when Meredith walked in and laid on the bottom bunk. This scene was both adorable and moving for so many reasons. They seemed like they were finally starting to like each other and it felt almost like two teenage girls laying on bunk beds gossiping. It was a really sweet moment between the two.
The latest scene. Callie, (Sara Ramirez) Jo, Karev, Meredith, and Maggie are all in Meredith’s chikdhood home. They make a joke about how everyone has hooked up with everyone and how everyone has had “sexual relations.” Arizona walked in and everything got weird. This made for an incredibly hilarious and awkward scene.
Next week it looks like April and Jackson are going to find out some devastating news about their baby.

About Last Night: CBS Thursday Comedy Recap
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but Chuck Lorre is currently dominating 50% of CBS’ Thursday night lineup, and with some of the best multi-camera sitcoms television presently has to offer.
Last night, minor surgeries, affordable housing, and marriage fraud were hot topics among ‘Lorreland’. Brief recaps of each await you after the jump! [Read more…]
SCANDAL! SURVIVOR! GENERAL HOSPITAL! SUPERNATURAL! GREY’S ANATOMY! REVENGE! The TV Addict Week in Rewind
Best Parting Line: “You think the world is so terrible with me in it?” SCANDAL’s Rowan asked daughter Olivia as the men hired to bring him in were gunned down feet away. “Wait ’til you see what it’s like without me.”
Funnest Outing: Watching SUPERNATURAL’s high school musical left us wondering why nobody has brought the TV show to Broadway. It’s gotta be better than 50 Shades: The Musical. And yes, that’s a real thing.
Least Necessary Revival: Okay, who out there was begging for another season of THE OSBOURNES? Whoever you are, the rest of us are really annoyed.
Grossest Chatter: Proving that sometimes, reality-TV can be a little too real, SURVIVOR spent far too much of this week’s episode discussing bodily functions.
Most In Need Of An After-Dinner Mint: TV’s CAKE BOSS Buddy Valastro was arrested by the NYPD on charges of driving while intoxicated. [Read more…]
WHITE COLLAR Recap: Stamp of Approval
Season 6 | Episode 2 | “Return to Sender” | Aired Nov 13, 2014
“Is your freedom worth dying for?” – Peter
“It might be.” – Neal
Zip lining across skyscrapers was a piece of cake. Working with the enemy won’t be as easy.
In last night’s “Return to Sender,” Matthew Keller, now a member of the Pink Panthers, returned at the worst possible time, just as Neal and Peter were attempting an all-out takedown of the notorious crime ring. Not only does he pose a threat to the success of their mission, but possibly the safety of a pregnant Elizabeth. As you’ll remember, the criminal mastermind once kidnapped El, using her as leverage to get what he wanted from Neal and the FBI.
As it turns out, Keller is attempting the same takedown. He’s cut a deal for himself identical to Neal’s, only with Interpol, promising to help with the incrimination of the Panthers in exchange for his freedom. [Read more…]
