BWW Interview: Six Degrees of THE FOLLOWING with Kevin BaconFebruary 26, 2015When I was young, age isn't really relevant, but young, I, along with the rest of the young girls in America fell in love with Ren McCormick aka Kevin Bacon in a tiny little film called FOOTLOOSE. He had been in other films such as ANIMAL HOUSE, DINER and FRIDAY THE 13TH to name a few, but it was his dancing around a barn in tight jeans that did it for me. So imagine my delight when I got to be on the phone with him last week to talk about his upcoming season of THE FOLLOWING!

BWW Recap: THE WALKING DEAD and The Book of AaronFebruary 23, 2015We are officially out of Georgia, WALKING DEAD fans and welcome to Alexandria. (I did say that with a Ricardo Montalban accent). This episode continues the gang on their journey to once again try and find a place to settle, but is Aaron a trustable source? The answer varies amongst our survivors.
BWW Recap: SCANDAL Will See You In Another Life, BrotherFebruary 20, 2015Last week I was super afraid that this episode would be predictable and I was am so very, very happy I was wrong. Why would I ever doubt Shonda Rhimes? She sure knows what she's doing because I sure didn't see that coming!
BWW Recap: It's a Tale of Two Cities on THE MINDY PROJECTFebruary 18, 2015The new addition to the Lahiri/Castellano family is going to have its work cut out for it, because Mom and Dad are a little nuts. But one thing's for sure, as different as their value systems may be, they are in this thing together.
BWW Recap: Jess' So Called Life on NEW GIRLFebruary 18, 2015Am I mistaken or did Nick Miller just drop some serious knowledge on Jessica Day? On the latest episode, the gang heads to the Pacific Northwest to attend Jess' dad wedding. But there are so many other things going on, the wedding is barely noticeable.
BWW Recap: Shelter From the Storm is Gravely Needed on THE WALKING DEADFebruary 16, 2015What is it the kids say these days? All the feels? I think that applies to this episode. Beth is gone, Tyrese is gone and at this point, all hope is gone. There's no food, no water and really just no will to survive. And on the hot, hot road to DC, that doesn't bode well for Rick and his gang.

BWW Recap: Crazy Little Thing Called Love on SHAMELESSFebruary 15, 2015I don't want to oversell it, but was this the best episode of SHAMELESS yet? My goodness with these performances. I'm so grateful William H. Macy was finally given a SAG award for his performance. The rest of this cast needs to be acknowledged as well.
BWW Recap: The Earrings Are Coming Off on THE MINDY PROJECTFebruary 11, 2015Feast of the Seven Fishes? Men in the living room, women in the kitchen? Whipping your earrings off when you're mad at the Italian men in your family? I'm sorry, was this a documentary of my childhood? My last name may be Irish, but I grew up Italian and the Castellano household is the truest Italian-American household I've seen in 30 years.
BWW Recap: The Crawl is For All on NEW GIRLFebruary 11, 2015Now, that's what I call a Valentine's Day episode. A celebration of the recently dumped, single and miserable, Nick Miller leads the way on a vengeful bar crawl to rage against this awful Hallmark holiday.
BWW Recap: There's Far Too Many of You Dying on THE WALKING DEADFebruary 9, 2015Good God, that was brutal! One episode in and I'm already exhausted. Blood and fire covering a painting of a happy home, well, isn't that just the best way to start the second half of season five? Losing a major character in episode one is probably a pretty clear indicator that this season is not going to be a lighthearted one.
BWW Recap: I've Got a Golden Ticket in SCANDAL'S Tense ReturnJanuary 30, 2015WHOA! If you were thinking we were going to ease slowly into the second part of this season, you were gravely mistaken. Shonda wasted absolutely NO time dealing with the kidnapping of Olivia Pope and finished out this grueling hour with shocking results. Make no mistake, SCANDAL has returned and it isn't white pants suits and red wine; it's horrifying.
BWW Recap: Go Morgan, It's Your Birthday on THE MINDY PROJECTJanuary 14, 2015Lee Pace Alert! Lee Pace Alert! That's right, the Piemaker himself showed up on THE MINDY PROJECT tonight. Is Mindy's billionaire handsome ex-boyfriend enough to make her question her relationship with Danny? No, not really, but it sure was a fun ride. I mean he speaks Japanese for Pete's sake!
