Chicago Fire, Chicago PD cross over on NBC again

February 3, 2015 Tom Comi

Chicago Fire and Chicago P.D. will cross over once again on NBC, with the plots intertwining Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. NBC got a big lift with its three-show crossover in November with its dramas Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D. and Law & Order: SVU sharing a running plot over three nights. In fact, as Variety reported at the time, ratings increased 29-percent for Chicago Fire and at least 50-percent for the other two programs. I wrote at the time that I had reservations about whether this stunt would work. First, I only watch Chicago Fire, so I wasn’t familiar with the other […]

February 1, 2015 Karen Ruud

Last week on Shameless we saw Frank’s mouth and Shelia’s house exploding, ending with Shelia driving off in the RV? This week’s Shameless Season 5, Episode 4: “A Night to Remem- Wait, What?” is pretty heavy on Frank reverting back to his own ways. It starts at the end of a wild night out and the episode is pretty heavy on him trying to recall what all went down… Very The Hangoveresque episode Frank: The opening scene is him lying face down covered in pigeon excrement and a cop waking him up. Geez, what did you get into the night before […]

So, after six seasons, the time has come to say goodbye to clan Braverman. And yes, it’s a given that there will be tears during Parenthood series finale. (I mean, come on, there’s ALWAYS tears with this show). But will they be happy tears or sad tears or gut-wrenching sobs?

January 26, 2015 Jeff Pfeiffer
