The Devil’s in the Remote reviews “Pretty Little Liars”
Oh Suits, you teased us so with the possibility of an adversary worthy of Jessica and Harvey, someone with a justifiable motive and the cunning to actually pull it off. You built up to it, Hardman lurked in the shadows with just a hint of menace to the words he spoke. Then in the season … Continued
If Bunheads had not been renewed, it’s final episode would’ve been a depressing tone to end on. For a light-hearted show about a city-girl adjusting to the quirks of a small town, for Michelle to have to walk away from it having soured her relationship with the most important person of all wouldn’t have been … Continued
Awkward Nothing forces the feelings issue more than Valentine’s Day. Matty is finally moving on, or at least working at moving on.
