Person of Interest 1.23 Review: "Firewall"

By John Keegan and Edmund Boys

person_of_interest_icon"Person of Interest" brings its freshman season to a close with another stellar episode. And it did it by taking its established formula and layering in the onging elements it's been building all season. Rather that a special event finale, it becomes an enhanced episode that ramps up the tension to a fever pitch. While some questions are answered, some plot threads are closed, it all drives to a conclusion that was both satisfying and leaves you begging for more. It's going to be a long summer waiting to hear the other side of that phone call.

By John Keegan

borgias_iconJuan Borgia returns from Spain with a rather distracting problem, while Lucrezia rebels against her role as a political pawn. Oh, and Savonarola continues to gain influence in Florence, as he inspires one of the more infamous "bonfires of the vanities". Not to mention the titular siege at Forli, which does not go as planned!

Mad Men 5.10 Review: "Christmas Waltz"

By John Keegan and Henry Tran

mad_menSterling Cooper Draper Pryce is an advertising firm. So we know from the outset that they deal in popular consumerism. They try their hardest to make money off of what people desire. Only, the people who work at the firm aren't getting what they desire the most. The most obvious example of this mindset has been Pete throughout the season, but he has a small role in this episode. No, the unfulfilled desire comes from other places and other characters, including one, Paul Kinsey, who hasn't been seen in two seasons. This causes plenty of frustration, which is only beginning to bubble to the surface in some cases while bursting at the seams in others. It has been a really dark season so far (even by "Mad Men" standards) and I don't think this is the last we're going to see of it.

Eureka 5.6 Review: "Worst Case Scenario"

By John Keegan and Gregg Wright

eurekasigniconThis season has been a little more up and down in quality than I expected it to be, but I still think that the recent hiccups are going to be the exceptions to the rule. "Worse Case Scenario" may be a bit of an average installment, but it's loaded with the typical "Eureka" fun, and also offers up some satisfying developments in the myth-arc department. The season is still lacking a clear sense of direction, and is mostly concerned with continuing to deal with the fallout from the Matrix incident, but considering the usual length of "Eureka" seasons, we're still fairly early into this one.

"Idol's" Nigel Lythgoe Talks "Idol" Season Finale

By Karen Moul

American Idol's Nigel LythgoeAs American Idol enters its two-night season finale, producer Nigel Lythgoe made time to speak with a few journalists and shared his thoughts on the final showdown between Jessica Sanchez and and Phillip Phillips.

“First and foremost,” Lythgoe offered, “they’re both very quiet. I don’t know if it’s age or whatever, but in fact the final four were very quiet, gentle people and not the sort of divas that you would expect.

“They’ll probably turn into that in a few years, but at this moment in time they’re just wonderful people, they’ve got their feet firmly on the floor, and they’re very focused on winning."

So what does Lythgoe think Jessica and Phillip each need to do to win?

Game of Thrones 2.8 Review: "The Prince of Winterfell"

By John Keegan and Gregg Wright

Game_of_Thrones_iconIt's all been leading up to something. Last season ended with a violent regime change and the outbreak of war. Season 2 has delivered a similar slow boil approach, likely saving the most dramatic events for the final two episodes of the season. So here we are, in the calm before the storm. But what form will that storm take? Will it be the climactic siege of King's Landing that I'm so eagerly hoping for? Or will the final two episodes unveil something far more unexpected? Perhaps both?
