Here is a new list of the shows I watch in order of how much I care about the characters.

Delivery Man. Bad Words. Lemon Tree Passage. The Alphabet Killer.

13 Monday Jul 2015

This week I started watching and then turned off too many films, including The Longest Ride, Sex Ed and almost ten more.

Delivery Man

Vince is believable as a Polish person. This is the second time I see him play a Polish person. Remember when he was a tourist guide on turist bus in The Breakup with Jennifer Aniston? I expected the film to be even more cheesy, so I am satisfied with it.

I had it. I had pitched the perfect game, and I had to screw the whole thing up. My mother saw the whole thing on TV.
She must have been surprised to find out that you had a male lover.
No. She said she always suspected it. She told me we would make a lovely couple.
And your kids?
They think it’s cool.

6/10

Bad Words

What a surprise. I expected it to be filthy and full of bad words film portraying exactly what the poster promised. Instead we got a good enough family film, with funny moments. It surely wasn’t insightful but it was light and that’s all I needed after this especially exhausting week. Even the highly racist nicknames were on point.

Why don’t you take your potty mouth, go locate your pre-teen cock-sucking son and stuff him back up that old blown-out sweat sock of a vagina and scoot off back to whatever shit-kicking town you came from!

5/10

Lemon Tree Passage

You do not really have to be interested in unexplained paranormal things to bump into this urban legend. And I really wish they stuck with it. There might have been a gang rape in Lemon Tree Passage, that was not publicised but they should have went with the legend, like they started. It was promising, up until the point when it shifted from its original course. Despite all that I liked that the film turned all rape and revenge, but what I don’t understand is why did the ghost kill the girl? I get why she would kill men that stopped on the passage, but the girl? Which ever motorcycle incident they would have chosen, we would have went along with it.

5/10

The Alphabet Killer

What a drag. I knew there was a reason I never wanted to watch Wrong Turn saga, this was awful. At it all would have been avoided if they did not make the main character schizophrenic. Horrors are always better when it’s all real. Or at least we might have found it out at the end. It started off so good and so quickly went with flames. The story made me want to watch the other movie based on this story. Isn’t it weird that the killings/rapes stopped? Did the killer change his tactics?

Mostly the job is to ask questions. The frustrating part, the part that drives you crazy, is that the people you really want to talk to are dead.

Why didn’t you tell me you knew the victims?
Because then you would have known that I killed them.

In 2006, police exhumed a fireman’s body and posthumously cleared him as a suspect. To date, the Alphabet Killer has not been found.

Cougar Town Season 6

A final goodbye to this very special show. After Dirt got cancelled we never would have imagined we’d get to see Courteney do another tv show, and not one of us expected it to be this fun and good. I said it a million times over the last 13 episodes, but I’ll miss our cul-de-sac crew so much. Penny can to you all.

I just finished watching Grace and Frankie, earlier I watched Full House and this week I started The Whispers and Scream. I will write a post on OITNB soon.

Pretty Little Liars 6.03

I hope we’ll get to know A’s identity and they won’t postpone it any longer. And that they won’t lie to us like The Killing writers did.

We made it back and I don’t see a happy ending.

8.5/10

Pretty Little Liars 6.04

What a coincidence with the files just being transferred. Sara is killing someone soon. Charles is living there. The aunt was killed by Charles when the liars were in 10th grade. No one cares why, just get in. Sara is A, as she is Bethany and she knew Charles. He put tracking chips into them.

He was institionalised in Radley.
Because Charles is dead.
He killed himself when he was 16.
I don’t want you going out alone.
There was a 10 minute gap between first and second shift.
My daughter was a patient at Radley, how can I get a hold of her records?
I found her on our roof.
Maybe someone lived there. Charles.
You’re my doll, bitch.
Dye it now or lose it all.
What did I do? What did you make me do?!
A must be somebody Charles knew at Radley.
The room in that place looked exactly like this.

6.5/10

Pretty Little Liars 6.05

Whats with the lame dance? So A is a girl. That we’ve never met. Great. Mona’s scared? Aria’s obsession with dolls. Since when? Please don’t let A be Cece. I want to be surprised. Let me guess, Aria is going to win the competition. Oh if only life was that easy. Teaching position? Isn’t Leslie liars’ age? Clark better not be A. Why is Sara only 17? So Leslie is A? I still think Sara is Bethany.

Bad behavior has a way of catching up to you.
You would know.
Clark may have taken a picture of A.
It’s not a cover. It’s minimum wage and you start tomorrow.
A is a girl?!
I saw her too.
There’s someone across the street in a hoodie.
Leslie Stone was in Radley?
She was roomates with Bethany Young.

The Whispers 1.01

Lily Rabe finally got her own show. Revenge’s Aiden is on it. Steven Spielberg is producing. It’s less of a horror, more of a sci-fi, but I’m still liking it. I never read the short story it’s based on. The series also stars Jess from Gilmore Girls. I am sad we won’t get to see much of The Whispers as Lily Rabe getting her own show is the best thing that happened to us since we met her in AHS.

X marks the spot. You’re supposed to step on it.
The game isn’t done yet, he’s looking for a new friend.
Yeah, I’d like to play.
Thank you for fixing me. Goodnight, Drill, I love you.

5/10

The Whispers 1.02

Trying to understand a sci-fi film is not easy, when you’ve been a sceptic your whole life. I did love Lost though and I did watch V, so I should be just fine.

I can’t wait to meet him.

2.5/10

The Whispers 1.03

The scene when the hostage gives the salesman Claire’s card and he actually understands what to do with it is pretty impressive. Also, awkward ex-lover/husband/wife moments are enjoyable to watch.

He’s alive. Sean is alive.
He’s my husband.
That’s an account.
Each of the kids claims to have an imaginary friend called Drill.
Clair, Minx got a friend called Drill.
Like a maze.

5/10

The Whispers 1.04

The tension between Claire and Wes is incredible to follow. Fantastic episode, best so far.

Let me go, Wes.
He can’t hear you. He can’t understand you!
Stop hurting him!
Henry, can you hear me?
But it was supposed to be a secret between me and Drill.

8/10

The Whispers 1.05

And the disapointment begins, what a weak episode.

I have nothing. No memories, no past.

1/10

The Whispers 1.06

Good episode and we finally got to see Drill.

You can’t tell me?
We’re all vulnerable.
What’s he doing to my son?!
He likes you. He says you can play.
Claire, I remember. I remember everything.

6/10

Scream 1.01

As a guge fan of the Scream series I fecided to give it a chance, and it honestly does not look too good. I am only interested in the main character’s mother’s story, but I’ll watch it. Bullet from the third season of The Killing stars and the guy who filmed killing his victims and died just before Amanda had a chance to disarm his on SVU.

Out doors speakers on.
Maybe you’ll make more views than Aubrey.
Heads up.
Calling Pottery Barn.
Maybe Aubrey will Taylor Swift her anger and put it into something creative.
I need gore details.
Some guys like sports, I like serial killers.
Nobody ever knew who she was.
Do you think one kegg is enough?
It’s like the perfect slasher setting.

6/10

Scream 1.02

How can I not follow a show that respects self harm and gay women.

Your dad is a solo survivor of the Brandon James killings?
She was a cutter?
Yeah, she had issues with depression.
I mean Rachel had some issues.
What? Cutting?

The Good Wife Season 6

I heard the rumor that Greys’ Denny is coming to the show and he’s going to be the new Kalinda, and I’m very excited. This season sucked. It reminds me of season one when we didn’t have Alan Cumming and the cases were dull and with no promise. I hope we can’t get past the whole Bishop storyline and just move on. I hope Alicia and Canning form a new firm. I hope they show us lots of Alan and they keep his awkward daughter. I hope Grace gets a life. She didn’t have one storyline this whole season. They took the son away, but at least we know he and his young girlfriend aborted a child a few years back. I hope Diane has a great case every episode. And finally that Cary moves on quick and starts acting like a lawyer again. He hasn’t fought a single case this season.

Shameless Season 5

What a crazy season. We lost Sheila and Mandy and the show did get a lot weaker, but it’s still one of the most sensational shows. The best case was Debbie losing her virginity by raping a guy, Chucky ending up in jail along with uncle Carl, and Ian’s bipolar disorder. The main mistake the writers made this season was that many characters introduced this year will not be here next season, and many plots felt like they were just killing time.
