This morning, the nominations for the 66th annual Primetime Emmy Awards were announced. Admittedly, I have been very limited in watch I watch due to time and accessibility, but… I have to admit that I think they missed quite a few worthy nominations. Even if they didn’t win, there are still episodes and performances that should have been given the recognition of the nomination. Continue reading

Bring on Fall TV!
8 JulHiatus is over for some of our favorite tv stars/shows as table reads began yesterday and this week begins the actual filming of the first episodes of the season. And with that, the most recent round of casting announcements happen.
SMALLVILLE Minicaps / Season 8, Eps. 1-4
2 Jul
Smallville season 8 minicaps: now with 80% less Lex and Lana.
Stewart here…
The big deal-y-o last season is Lex became all out evil by killing his dad, and now his search for the Traveler from another world leading him to the Fortress and Clark. So Lex hooked up some krpytonian trinket to control Clark and it brought the entire Fortress down on both of them. Meantime, Chloe is unable to accept Jimmy’s marriage proposal on account of some government agents arresting her, and Lana has decided to leave Clark and get out of Smallville (and considering she survived being turned into some zombie, maybe that’s not a bad idea). So, let’s go… Continue reading
SMALLVILLE Minicaps / Season 7, Eps. 17-20 and Season Seven Highlights
24 JunThe Smallville season 7 minicaps would like to apologize if you don’t like these last few episodes. It was the Writer’s Strike that did that.
Stewart here…
Let’s just get the big news out of the way: LIONEL WAS KILLED BY LEX! Lionel and some of his high-society buddies were involved in a group called Veritas, who worshipped a “Traveler” from space (hint, hint) and now Lex has turned to patricide to find out the identity of this “traveler”. Meanwhile, said “Traveler” Clark Kent loses two women in his life when Lana is left comatose by Brainiac and Kara leaves with Brainiac to who-knows-where save Lana. Oh, and Lana’s is STILL zombified, so so much for that agreement. Continue reading
Time for a little Pomp & Circumstance
14 JunIn my real life I work at a place that understands celebrating accomplishments. Last night, I attended the semi-regular (i.e. occurring three times a year) graduation ceremony for those who have completed the program. It isn’t easy- more people fail or leave before they ever reach this milestone- so the celebration is important. On a personal note, I worked closely with four of the graduates over the last year and it was amazing to see them have their moment to shine. One was even valedictorian! Continue reading
Why Smallville will always be my own personal kryptonite
10 JunIf you’ve been paying attention you know that we love our superheroes here at NerdLush HQ. And Superman is one of our favorites (though we have equal love, apparently, for all DC and Marvel characters). We could (and probably should) sit around as a group and debate the merits of each Superman and it would likely be quite the entertaining roundtable. But since the crew is scattered, it isn’t likely to happen anytime soon.
None of that is why I am here today… I want to talk about why Smallville will always hold a special place in my heart. Continue reading
SMALLVILLE Minicaps / Season 7, Eps. 13-16
4 JunThe Smallville season 7 minicaps apologize for the delay. Hopefully Bizarro Smallville season 7 minicaps didn’t mess things up too badly while it was here.
Stewart here…
Its all bad news on the Smallville front. Clark’s finding out what happened while Bizarro Clark had assumed his identity (well, besides schumpting Lana), but not that Bizarro Clark was recently in contact with a reassembled Brainiac. Kara has been found, but doesn’t remember who she is, but Lex is willing to help her find out. Speaking of Lex, he’s murdered Grant, the clone of his already dead brother, and something regarding a thing called Veritas is popping up. We’ll get more on Veritas here, so let’s go… Continue reading
Guilty Pleasures- MTV’s Teen Wolf
2 JunFor some time, my young friend Marina (who I have known since she was knee high to a grasshopper) has been recommending that I watch MTV’s Teen Wolf (at this point I should note that the rec actually comes from her mom, who recc’ed it to her, but that’s not the point). I always said I’d get around to it… eventually.
Well, now that I have free time and my fav shows are on hiatus, I finally have the time to watch those genre shows I’ve been putting off… And Amazon Prime having the complete series (so far) streaming for free was a pretty good push to put Teen Wolf towards the top of my list.
And what can I say- I am not above enjoying a show that has pretty guys running around shirtless (especially since this happens much more often than the girls showing skin- props to MTV).
I stayed up too late the other night to finish my marathon and am now super sad that I have to wait for the next season! Which, by the way, starts on June 23rd.
Oh, and um… SPOILERS ahead. Continue reading
ARROW Season 2 review
27 May
Welcome back, Arrow-heads! Covering this recent season of Arrow, I thought it would fun to go back and review the season as a whole. To make it easier, I thought I’d follow the formula with the look back on season one, and point out the good and bad of season two. So, let’s start with the good: Continue reading
What was your must see TV?
25 MayThe problem with hiatus TV is that it sucks. There’s a lot of reality TV and reruns. Nothing entertaining really. At least to me. So I’ll be using the suggestions from a previous post as entertainment til something new starts. Continue reading
