Burn Notice 3.1, Friends and Family (Advance Review)

Burn Notice’s return to TV slipped up on me! It seems like the show just ended! Season Two ended with Michael escaping the clutches of “Management”. Who knew “Management” was run by Frasier’s dad!

The mask wearing kidnapper has buried a young girl alive and is demanding a ransom in exchange for her life. Everything progresses as normal [...]

Glee! Preview Episode Review

(Please welcome our newest addition to the team, Denice Landry.)
I just watched the preview of Fox’s new fall show, Glee. I wasn’t sure about the show at first but the ads for it had some catchy tunes that stuck in my head so I had to check it out. The show is a [...]
