The White Queen 1×5: War at First Hand

September 15, 2013 by couchpotato

I’m getting whiplash from the revolving Kings. This week, Edward (Max Irons) takes the crown back, Warwick (James Frain) and Henry Stafford (Michael Maloney) die, and the Brothers York make a dubious moral decision.

Let’s bitch it out…

The White Queen review – 1×04: ‘The Bad Queen’

September 1, 2013 by couchpotato

A lot happens this week on The White Queen, as the mad King Henry winds back on the throne and Elizabeth (Rebecca Ferguson) gives birth to a baby boy in what appears to be the basement of Westminster Abbey.

The White Queen review – 1×03: ‘The Storm’

August 25, 2013 by couchpotato

After what I’d consider a rather uninspiring series start, this episode is the best so far. Now that we’re familiar with all the main players, “The Storm” allows viewers to experience a rebellion from the widely different viewpoints of various ladies involved, including Queen Elizabeth (Rebecca Ferguson), the Neville sisters, and Margaret Beaufort (Amanda Hale).

The White Queen review – 1×02: ‘The Price Of Power’

August 18, 2013 by couchpotato

The second episode of STARZ’s The White Queen reinforces my belief that becoming a queen would just be too much work. All of the plotting, overthrowing, and the need to have sons ASAP? It sounds exhausting.

Grimm review – 2×22: ‘Goodnight, Sweet Grimm’

May 22, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of NBC

The second half of Grimm‘s second season finale is a complete barn-burner as significant developments occur on nearly all story fronts. Plus: the showrunners mock our pain!
