It’s time for Face Off’s “whimsical challenge” week, when the contestants try desperately to figure out what the judges think whimsical means. Plus, a double elimination. Starting out, Lyma has a good attitude about being a bottom look last week, vowing to learn from the judges’ criticisms. This is the usual Face Off foreshadowing, but does it mean Lyma will excel this week, or totally fail to learn from her mistakes and get eliminated? The foundation challenge this week involves the movie Insidious and the […]

On this week’s Face Off, Face Off settles in for a long season of being Face Off. Now let’s make some future Frankensteins. At the end of last season I had some suggestions to improve Face Off, because the formula’s getting a little predictable. This season’s “vets versus newbs” twist is different, but otherwise it seems like little has changed. In some cases that’s great (Michael Westmore doing weekly walk-throughs to advise the contestants); in some cases it’s deathly boring (this week, the judging segment […]

It’s the season six finale and it could go any way. What will Sookie do about marrying Warlow? What happens to Bill after losing most of his blood? Where did Eric go? All of this and more is revealed tonight. As Terry is put into the grave, Sookie takes a walk with a very fine-looking Alcide. Let’s face it, is he ever anything but? They share a tender moment but are interrupted when Alcide smells the day walking vamps as they come back to Bill’s […]

Face Off is back for a fifth season! This time around, the competitors tasked with creating grotesque and amazing make-up effects on insane deadlines are joined by ten returning veterans from past seasons. The veterans are quite a mix. Some made it to the finals of their respective seasons, while others were early flameouts. Some of my all-time favorite contestants (Roy, Laura, Alana, RJ) are back, which already has my interest in this season dialed up. And the newbies? I guess we’ll have to wait […]

Things are heating up in the action department as True Blood gets closer to the end of season six. We’re also due a funeral to send Terry off proper and we got that tonight. To be fair, we kind of knew what would happen due to Bill’s mysterious visions, but we didn’t know how we would get there, or more importantly, how our beloved characters would get through it, or if they would at all, especially considering how much the writers have a penchant for […]

We left Eric clutching Nora as she meets her true death, and we start with this scene as well. Bill tries to get Eric to continue with his holy war while Eric is still holding the remains of his dead sister. Eric calls Bill out about not bringing Warlow to him in time. Eric’s bravery, or insanity, your call, during his moment of maniacal mourning was quite entertaining as he cries, “Mother I can fly! I can fly!” and “Praise Bill!” as Bill exerts his […]
