TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “The Last Day”

Game-changer Shocking. Astonishing. Mind-blowing. Jaw-dropping. Unexpected. There are not enough words I can use to properly describe what exactly happened last night on The Vampire Diaries. I was so far on the edge of my seat the entire episode, I fell off a few (or more) times. I think I might have some bruises. The…

Movie Review: Water for Elephants

Welcome to The Most Spectacular Show on Earth! If you look closely, you’ll see there is something different about this big screen adaptation. Under this Big Top, you’ll find magic. Unlike most movies today, Water for Elephants is classic storytelling at it’s best. Actions, decisions, consequences, words; it’s about following these wonderful characters in a…

TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “Klaus”

Revelations Okay. I think I need a moment. My head is still spinning from last nights highly explosive episode. And by ‘highly explosive episode,’ I mean, so-much-was-said-that-I’m-still-not-sure-what-the-hell-is-going-on. There’s no Sun & Moon curse? Klaus is Elijah’s *r*th*r? Damon loves Elena? Wait. We already knew that one. Last night, our favorite prime-time vampire soap opera shoved…

TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “The Last Dance”

Inside Job Did you hear that? It’s the sound of millions of TVD viewers cringing, crying, and clapping (I love alliteration) after last nights brand spanking new episode of The Vampire Diaries. Who didn’t shed a tear after seeing Bonnie try to sacrifice herself for Elena; or after seeing Alaric’s/Klaus’ (?) cheesy, yet entertaining dance…

TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “Know Thy Enemy”

Flip-floppers It’s baaaacckk! After those endless weeks, sleepless nights, and vivid Damon dreams, our beloved Vampire Diaries returned to us last night in full force. It was a long wait, to be sure. In fact, it’s difficult to remember what happened last time on our favorite vampire drama. So before we delve into the craziness…

Book Review: The Hunger Games

“You don’t forget the face of the person who was your last hope.” If you’re not living under the proverbial literary rock like I am, you’ve probably already read or heard about The Hunger Games, the first in a three-part series by Suzanne Collins. Well, the time finally came for me to sit down and…

This Fall Teen Nick will finally bring back our favorite shows in a 12am-2am retro…

Supernatural Rewind: “The French Mistake”

“Season 6” Holy super late review/recap, Batman! Arg! I feel terrible about posting this so late. Please forgive me. It’s been a crazy week. You will never believe what happened. It all started when Balthazar appeared out of nowhere and started looking for ingredients for a spell (I know! This was just the beginning). Then,…

Supernatural Rewind: “Mannequin 3: The Reckoning”

Season 6 Episode 14 Okay. I’m going to say something I have never ever said before. I didn’t like this episode of Supernatural. Gah! I know! I don’t even know how I could say such blasphemous words. Please forgive me. The truth is, I felt like this episode was pulling me in so many different…

TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “The House Guest”

Unwelcome “Shock and Aw” is one way to describe last nights all new episode of The Vampire Diaries. The follow-up to one of the most exciting episodes of the series did not disappoint. In fact, it delivered a heaping plateful of surprise flavored awesomeness. Of course, the night wouldn’t be complete if there wasn’t a…

TV Rewind: The Vampire Diaries – “The Dinner Party”

Will you be having blood with your dessert? Oh, Vampire Diaries. You never fail to surprise me. Not only did last nights all new episode fill its required quota of WTF? moments, it actually exceeded it. So tell me, how did you do it? How did you manage to fill such a short time with…
