On The CW DC Comics’ Arrow Gain New Life And Many Followers - The Vampires Diaries Returns Tonight



On The CW DC Comics’ Arrow Gain New Life And Many Followers - The Vampires Diaries Returns Tonight

Last night mark the première evening of The CW newest DC Comics based series, Arrow. Moreover, talk about a character makeover. Actor Stephen Amell portrayal of Oliver Queen was beyond awesome. I expected mediocre but what I got was fantastically drawn into a first rate story. 

As for the 'who-who' of the series not all the characters are so clearly define. Meaning, I see that there is more depth to each character to be discover. Like, what hell is going on with Oliver’s mom? Clearly, she is not the average cooperative business wife, who breathes through dinner parties and shopping mall while blissfully blind to the going in the family’s business. No, there is viciousness in Susanna Thompson’s character Moira Queen that fails big time to be motherly.
Overall Arrow has rated A+ with this reviewer. 


Supernatural is in the second week of its new season, and it is nothing like I expected. For instant Dean’s (Jensen Ackles ) return from purgatory was not so much exciting as how it came about. That back-story to his release and with a demon by the name of Benny in toll is what brings speculations to a high that will keep fans watching. 

Questions: 

1.      Did Dean abandon Castiel (Misha Collins) in purgatory? If so, why?
2.      Should Dean really be so upset with Sam (Jared Padalecki) moving on with his life without Dean?
3.      Have dean forgotten that a few seasons back  Sam went to Hell to save the world, and that he (Dean) gave up hunting and started a new life of his own?
4.      Is Dean really out of purgatory? 

Finally,

5.      Will Kevin (Osric Chau) survive the season? 

So far, Supernatural new theme is promising. I like the additional darkness that the intermittence bits back-stories bring to the series. I just hope that Dean stay in purgatory had not jaded him so much that he will lose all control, which would make him more demon-like than human. 

666 Park Avenue is a scary series. Who doesn’t remember 1408 where many of the visitors checked in, then faced the results of their own wickedness, and died. Spooky houses, dark basements, and creepy cabins in the woods have us all on edge and most of the time we know the come and feel a sense of relief when there is just one overwrought survivor. 

Well, ‘The Drake’ the expensive and lavish apartment building in 666 Park Avenue surpasses the above, and brings making a deal with the devil to a new twenty first century height. No more is he out searching to lost and desperate souls to make impossible to break bargain with. No, instead, he employs them. He offers them their wildest dreams and is a deal makes them slave to his every bidding. If a man wants his dead wife back, he must kill. If a lonely woman wants beautiful gems, she must steal. 

No more are the cut and dry bargain of letting a lose soul live an extra ten years or so. No anyone signing on with Gavin Doran (Terry O'Quinn) and his assistant Olivia Doran (Vanessa Williams). By the way, if Gavin isn’t the devil, he sure looks and acts the part with deadly results.

The CW's  The Vampire Diaries returns tonight, and all I can wonder is will Elena (Nina Dobrev) spend her undead life whining about being dead and a vampire. Sure, she did not want to be either, but to cry over situation that may or may not be reversible will have fans who saw too much ‘Twilightness’ in last season finale tuning out. Tonight’s premiere episode will set the direction for the season. So fans like me much wait and see the out come. 

While The Vampire Diaries will to be retuning, tonight is also the maiden premiere of Beauty and The Beast. The all too dark and sexy drama based of the 1987-1989 series starring Linda Hamilton promises to be more gritty, and the origins more intriguing as he was not born but created. This new version stars Kristin Kreuk as Catherine Chandler and Jay Ryan as Vincent Keller.



The BBC America’s Copper has two more episodes before the series end its first successful season. The idea to set of crime drama in the late 1800s was a brilliant one, and has earned BBC America many praises, its highest rating ever; and no doubt Copper will earned many awards for the network. My only displeasure about the series is that there are not more episodes to the season, but then I feel this way about all my favorite BBC America series. 
Question:  What is Corcoran (Tom Weston-Jones) going to do with Annie (Kiara Glasco) now that he has found his wife? For in true that young girl represents everything that can go wrong with a system. 


Uh, where is 'Cult' The CW new psychological drama?
