BWW Interview: Gillian Pensavalle and Patrick Hinds, hosts of TRUE CRIME OBSESSED PodcastJune 5, 2017When I was 12 years old, the Homecoming Queen in our small town in Pennsylvania was killed in a drunk driving accident. A few months later, her older brother shot the driver of the car that killed her point blank in the head four times. But did he really do it? Was he covering for his brother? Or his father? Now, 30 years later, this story still haunts our small town and is a topic that is still discussed at holiday dinners and when driving by the murder site. The brother was convicted of third degree murder and sentenced to 20 years, of which, he only served 10 for good behavior.
BWW Feature: MOANA's Oscar-Nominee Lin-Manuel Miranda Goes for the EGOTFebruary 24, 2017which rock you've been hiding. Sure, he created one of the biggest and most successful musicals in Broadway history and now has the possibility of claiming the exclusive EGOT (or PEGOT or MacPEGOT?), but first, let's look at the man himself. (I will do my best to keep the Hamilton puns to a minimum).
BWW Recap: The Merry Wives of Negan on THE WALKING DEADDecember 5, 2016Not really sure what we did to deserve all these extra long episodes this season, but I'm not going to be the one to complain. We were chock full of information in this penultimate (is that possible?) episode for the first half of Season Seven tonight.
BWW Recap: Premature Emasculation on THE WALKING DEADNovember 14, 2016Welcome to a special 90 minute episode of THE WALKING DEAD or, rather, “More time for a lot of commercials.” But there is no rest for the wicked as Negan makes his first visit to Alexandria way ahead of schedule.
BWW Recap: Sunday, Bloody Sunday on THE WALKING DEADOctober 23, 2016It has been a LONG six months, y'all. LONG! But finally, we have the answer that has been plaguing us all this time: who did Negan kill? Were you correct? Were you heartbroken? Traumatized? Yup… me too. I will not commence breathing again.
BWW Recap: Who Lives? Who Dies? Who Tells Your Story on FEAR THE WALKING DEADOctober 3, 2016Okay, so look, there are so many people who complain that this show is inferior to its predecessor, but I'm sorry people, this is what is known in the biz as an “epic finale.” I'm honestly not sure I blinked the entire time. And if you gave up on this show, I'm sad that you didn't get to experience this two hour masterpiece.
BWW Recap: I Ain't Sayin' He a Grave Digger on FEAR THE WALKING DEADSeptember 25, 2016Welcome to the dark side, Christopher. Yes, Travis' last desperate hope to save Chris went out the window tonight as he went full Kylo Ren and chose his bros over his Dad. Thankfully, Travis was able to see the light, literally, that led to a (kind of) joyous reunion.
BWW Recap: EMPIRE's New GrooveSeptember 22, 2016Well, I'll say this, EMPIRE wastes NO time in resolving cliffhangers. Yes, the Lyons' are back, down a family member, but back, nonetheless. Season Three is here!
BWW Recap: Live Like You Were Lyon on EMPIREMay 19, 2016In the preview for the episode, they stated “A Lyon Will Fall” and I guess they were being literal. But, alas, we know not which one. Hakeem's wedding was anything but a celebration as Season Two comes to a close.
BWW Recap: I'll Never Let Go, Jack on FEAR THE WALKING DEADMay 9, 2016We are down to the last few episodes of Season Two (Part A?) of FEAR. With the capture of Travis and Alicia last week, we have learned that even on the water, Travis, Madison and crew are being hunted and the Abigail is definitely a target.
BWW Recap: The Son Also Rises on SCANDALMay 6, 2016I'm guessing when the writers created this episode, they didn't realize just how prophetic it would be… or did they? It's getting creepy real in fiction, even if it isn't as creepy as reality.
