GLEE: ‘The Spanish Teacher’…Oh, Dios Mío

Even you die hard ‘GLEE-can-do-no-wrong’ers’ out there have to admit that despite Ricky Martin’s dashing good looks, dazzling white teeth and hot hip action, this week’s episode was rather miserable. And you know an episode of GLEE is bad when not even the musical performances can save it. Ay caramba!

Was I the only one that went back to the beginning of the episode to make sure Mr. Schue didn’t write ‘Inappropriate’ on his white board of bad themes? There were so many things that were just plain wrong about this episode that I found myself echoing Mercedes anthem “Hell to the No’. Read more

NBC’s Thursday Night Shuffle – THE FIRM Out; AWAKE In

February 3, 2012 by  
Filed under Awake, The Firm

There’s hardly a move that NBC makes these days that doesn’t feel reactionary or even desperate. With another under-performing show to deal with NBC must once again jostle its Thursday night schedule in the hopes of regaining a glimpse of the ratings of yesteryear.

This time around it’s THE FIRM that has fallen victim to lack of eyeballs, and thus the law thriller is being moved to Saturday nights at 9pm (shudder) beginning on February 11th. NBC’s new show AWAKE, starring Kyle Killen and Jason Issacs will take over the Thursday at 10pm time slot starting on March 1st.

So what’s the deal with AWAKE?
Police detective Michael Britten (Jason Isaacs) regains consciousness following a car accident involving his wife Hannah (Laura Allen) and his son Rex (Dylan Minnette). Michael moves back and forth between two realities: in one, Rex survived while Hannah is dead; in the other, Hannah survived but Rex did not. Trying to keep both his loved ones alive, Michael starts living a “double life,” moving back and forth between the two realities, dealing with different personal conflicts and police partners. He also starts noticing strange links between the two realities

Check out the trailer for AWAKE.


I know I’ll be tuning in…you?
