The Americans — Attack of the Nymphets S3-E4 “Dime-bag”

Kay Gardella Memorial TV Review Blog

Seriously, anyone else as wigged out (no pun intended) by this week’s episode as I was?  Watching Philip as Jim the 40 something lawyer who likes to hang out and smoke weed with teenaged girls while doing them favors made me more uncomfortable than last week’s dental-play.

My thoughts — and misgivings are posted over at Happy Nice Time People — the folks who do TV right. While you are there you may read some of their other fine recaps including this week’s Better Call Saul recap by yours truly and/or my take on Downton Abbey.

Then come back here, and read some more words! Or better yet, get off the intertubes and read a “game changing” sexy vampire novel, thy don’t you?

The Americans — Who’s Your Daddy? S3-E1

Last night’s episode had no actual sex, yet could have turned porny in so many places. All it needed was the music. Shall we review?

Is dental play part of your erotic repertoire? If Philip’s DIY-Dental work gave you that funny feeling, maybe it should be. This being the internet, I’m sure you can find plenty of tutorials.

Teenage babysitters and the dads who love them.

Sexy work situations! There was the cougar and the trainee. The new guy and the secretary (Watch out new guy! Her husband killed the last man who liked her.)The interracial bros at work getting to know each other, and of course Arkady and Oleg – growing ever closer. There’s was a forbidden love in the old time Soviet Union (and modern Russia.)

And let’s not forget the insecure teenage boy and the very adult neighbor lady. “Mrs. Beeman, are you trying to seduce me?”

Check out my complete and detailed episode recap over at Happy Nice Time People, and come back and look around here when you’re done or check out this novel I wrote.

It’s Show Bizsnatch! Better Call Saul, S1-E2

Kay Gardella Memorial TV Review Blog,

My recap (and critique if it’s not edited out) is now up on HNTP — the television blog you should ALL be reading. I’d just like to say here and now that I got a couple of things wrong about the Sunday night installment. For one thing, I recognized Tuco, but then decided it couldn’t be him because the internet did not immediately explode with the news and I didn’t see Raymond Cruz being named in the credits. Oops.

Second, like some other writers, I suggested that perhaps those of you who’d missed a few or all of the episodes of Breaking Bad, should take a few days off from everything and binge. That’s unnecessary. What I realized last night, watching the second part of the premiere was that it’s neither a “prequel” nor totally a “stand alone.” It’s a part of something much bigger — Vince Gilligan’s parallel universe. It’s non-linear space so it doesn’t really matter when you drop in. It’ll all circle back eventually.

Anyway… once again please head over to Happy Nice People Time to read my recap and other fine recaps of your favorite shows and those you no longer bother watching. And if you want to thank me in some way, go check out my books — especially this one.
