'Signature' | TV Show Recaps | 1/9/2008
Well at least Mariska didn't look as orange this week so that's good but when Erika Christensen introduced herself as a Special Agent with the F.B.I. I had to smile. She looks like a kid to me. And maybe even worse...she sounds like one. Now the Traffic and Swimf@n star is 25 years old so I guess its possible for her to run an investigation in the hunt for the serial killer The Woodsman...no wait...it just seems kind of dumb. Tell me: am I alone here? Does everyone on this show HAVE to be young and beautiful?? That scene at the strip club was just embarrassing. I don't think the owner could have been any more stereotypical. Asking if she "wanted to get her freak on"...What? For the second time this season I thought I was watching a bad 70's TV series. Something is seriously a bit off this year since I never feel that way watching the reruns.A stylistic change I've also noticed this year is the use of voice overs. In this case we hear Dr. Huang describing the killer's prof... read more
'Snitch' | TV Show Recaps | 12/5/2007
I have more news on the Richard Belzer front. I spoke with the actor himself this week and he is very grateful that you guys all miss Detective Munch and it turns out we weren't imagining things: Belzer’s contract this year was reduced from 22 episodes to a measly 13. No word on why this happened. Belzer is as mystified as we are but the 63 year old's character was pretty much replaced by 35 year old Adam Beach this season. Nobody is saying its ageism and maybe I am just as conspiracy minded as Detective Munch but you do the math and tell me what you think.Executive Producer Neal Baer would not comment further. Although he told me last week Munch wasn't going anywhere, they have sure found screen time for Adam. I think every episode this season. Personally Munch is one of my favorite characters. He is funny, cynical and real. If you want to see more Munch let your voice be heard. Write to NBC or send a letter to TV Guide Magazine and let the show’s producers know ho... read more
X-Men Star Braves the 19th Century... and Then Vampires! | Today's News: Our Take | 5/25/2007
This Sunday at 9 pm/ET, HBO premieres Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, a wrenching adaptation of Dee Brown's history of the hardships the Indian nations suffered in late-19th-century America. In it, the quirkily charismatic Anna Paquin plays Elaine Goodale, the wife of a Dartmouth-educated Sioux (SVU's Adam Beach) who devotes her life to the tribe. The Oscar winner spoke with us about the film. TV Guide: How would you describe Elaine? Paquin: She's strong and modern. Most people weren't interested in working with native populations at that time, but she spoke the language fluently and lived on the reservation. She knew the culture from the inside. TV Guide: Wha read more
New Wounded Knee Breaks Hearts Again | Matt Roush | 5/16/2007
As history, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee is essential, enlightening and disturbing, and has been since Dee Brown published his groundbreaking 1971 best-seller about the displacement and mistreatment of Native Americans in the late 19th century. As drama, HBO's movie (based on the book, airing Sunday, May 27, at 9 pm/ET) should only enhance and revive its reputation. Your heart is likely to break, bleed and cry out to the Sioux, trapped in one of history's bloodiest culture clashes, long before this movie reaches its devastating climax at the 1890 massacre of Wounded Knee Creek. It's a complex story, forcefully told (by screenwriter Daniel Giat) and directed (by Yves Simoneau) with a feel for the epic landscape of the Indians' hunting grounds and a sympathy for their diminished circumstances in reservations. Wounded Knee opens with the Little Big Horn battle of 1876 and traces the surge toward an American holocaust through multiple points of view. read more
