“American Dad!” recap: “Now and Gwen”

November 18, 2014 Jeff Pfeiffer

Francine took the spotlight in last night’s American Dad! episode “Now and Gwen,” which was fairly unmemorable and, again, not as “edgy” as TBS keeps promising (I heard a “shit” and a “God damn,” which would have been bleeped on broadcast, but otherwise …) We start with Francine having a nightmare in which she’s back in high school, trying to run away from her sister Gwen (voiced by Uma Thurman), who transforms into a fiery monster that burns down the school. In the dream, Francine is led to safety by Scott Baio, and upon awakening, admits to Stan that she’s […]

“The Flash” recap: Things get explosive in “Plastique”

November 12, 2014 Jeff Pfeiffer

I’m not sure if The CW purposely scheduled the “Plastique” episode of The Flash to air on Veterans Day or not, but either way, it was timely, in that its main story dealt with the mistreatment of a military veteran who ends up as a metahuman capable of blowing things up merely by touching them. Her backstory touches on the way she has been used in the past, and in her current story she is pursued by the military to be used again, this time as a new weapon. Also in the episode, Barry (Grant Gustin) and Iris (Candice Patton) […]

“American Dad!” recap: “Big Stan on Campus”

November 11, 2014 Jeff Pfeiffer

A bit of the reality of our current government and law enforcement came into play in last night’s new episode of American Dad!, called “Big Stan on Campus.” Director Bullock (Patrick Stewart) gives his CIA team the bad news that their budget needs to be cut (but he won’t give up his ornate “hover-throne” that he is seen using to get around, naturally) and that he needs one of them to take what he calls a “vacation” (actually an unpaid furlough). Stan agrees before fully understanding what it is, and then must find a way to earn some money during […]

Squatchers of “Finding Bigfoot” will also look for Nessie this season

November 7, 2014 Jeff Pfeiffer

Although they haven’t, to my knowledge, found much convincing evidence of Sasquatch, the self-described “Squatchers” of Animal Planet’s Finding Bigfoot will continue the hunt when a new season of the series begins Nov. 9 at 9pm ET/PT. At the start of the season’s eight new episodes, the team is supposedly “hot on the trail of what they believe to be the world’s largest Sasquatch.” That enormous Bigfoot is the subject of the two-hour season premiere, which takes Bigfoot Field Research Organization (BFRO) president Matt Moneymaker, researchers James “Bobo” Fay and Cliff Barackman, and skeptical scientist Ranae Holland, off to Alaska. […]

From AHC: “On the morning of August 13, 1965, the citizens of Berlin woke to a chorus of pneumatic drills and tanks, only to discover that their capital had been physically divided by a barbed wire fence.
