I’ve had to run around southern California a lot recently and I’ve been trying to do so at the best travel times as possible- to decrease stress levels, of course. But yesterday I had to run down to San Diego (around 120 or so miles from my place) and had to be there at a specific time… which meant that if I didn’t do it right, I’d hit traffic and go nuts.

ARROW Season 2×12, “Tremors” recap
29 JanWelcome back, Arrow-heads! Sebastian Blood’s running for mayor and has just removed one problem in Laurel Lance. Now she’s revealed to be a pill-popper and been fired from the DA’s office. Also, Roy’s attempt to be a vigilante ends badly, which leaves Ollie as Arrow with one option: train him to control his super-anger. After all, he did so well with Slade when he got the Mirakuru in him. You know, the guy who’s missing an eye and nursing a serious hard-on for revenge against Ollie. Oh right, that’s not good. Sooo….

Television Graveyard- plot 6, Veritas: The Quest
27 JanI recently watched the Syfy series, Haven, and we know what happens when I do that, right? I tend to find an actor that I like and watch all the things. Well, I lucked out and didn’t find an actor but rather rediscovered one I’d already enjoyed but missed several things. Well, I’m partial to particular things so I opted to watch a series I remember starting and then losing track of (probably because ABC bounced it around and then canceled it before it was truly given a chance)… I give you- Veritas: The Quest!
SMALLVILLE Minicaps / Season 6, Eps. 13-16
25 Jan
Smallville season 6 minicaps got its wedding invite and is debating not showing up. Although rumor is there’s a great dish being served at the wedding dinner. Mmmm…
Stewart here…
Well, pregnant Lana accepted Lex’s proposal for marriage, which is great news for Lex, and not necessarily for anyone else. Clark also has discovered a new ally in his hunt for Zoners and teamed up with an all-star super team in their attempt to destroy Lex’s 33.1 bases. So the big question is if Clark will pull a Dustin Hoffman from The Graduate and steal Lana away from the wedding? Um, the short answer is “sort of”, but the longer answer lies here… Continue reading
ARROW Season 2×11, “Blind Spot” recap
23 JanWelcome back, Arrow-heads! Here’s what you need to know so far: Laurel has discovered Sebastian is a stone cold psychopath who murdered his dad as a child and locked away his mom in a mental ward. Thea’s become aware of Roy’s super strength, but not of the possible side effects of the Mirakuru in him, like the tendency to rage out. In the past, Slade raged out and ran off from Ollie and Sara. And finally, Ollie is making friends with Sebastian as the Arrow. Oooh, let’s see how that plays out this week… Continue reading
Little Piece of Heaven in Haven
21 JanOnce again, I’m late to the party. Sometimes it really sucks to be a poor grad student with no TV, but then I remember NetFlix and Hulu and that everything I want to see will eventually be available there. Last year I finally checked out Eureka and Primeval (and it’s spinoff). So this year, during my recent enforced rest due to injury, I finally started watching Syfy’s Haven.
I’ve zipped through the available four seasons like I was marathoning an old favorite! Continue reading
SMALLVILLE Minicaps / Season 6, Eps. 9-12
17 Jan
JOREL hand soap: helping people in psychiatric hospitals stay clean and fantasize about being space aliens with super powers. Use only as directed. Seriously.
Stewart here…
Where we last left Clark Kent was him trying to capture or destroy the escapees from the Phantom Zone. What happened is that we’ve discovered someone else is hunting them too, but whether they’re a new friend or new foe for Clark to worry about is still unknown (but this mystery player does like Oreos for certain). Plus, Lex proposed to Lana, but we don’t know what her answer is yet. And Lionel seems to be a good guy, but really, does anyone reading this believe that? However, read on for answers to all of that and other twists and turns… Continue reading
ARROW Season 2×10, “Blast Radius” recap
15 JanWelcome to 2014, Arrow-heads! Here’s a quick recap of things that happened last time: that super drug from the island is still around, thanks to Slade being revealed as the architect of the troubles in Starling City. That super-drug has also made its way into Roy, and Ollie’s keeping an eye on him while hunting down Brother Blood. Too bad he doesn’t know Mr. Blood is running for mayor of the city. Felicity gets a boyfriend, who ends up comatose thanks to a freak accident. And Ollie gets a mask. How does the new year start for everyone? With a bang! Continue reading
Highlights of 2013, a NerdLush year in review
13 JanMany thanks to Emily for starting the year off with a drunk year in review. Made me laugh. But I’m poking my head in now with a slightly more serious look back at 2013 and where it took NerdLush. As well as some of the favorites, as voted on by fans. Continue reading
