With a pedigree including executive producers J.J. Abrams (Revolution, Lost) and Alfonso Cuarón (Oscar-winning director of Gravity), you might expect something mysterious and technically thrilling from NBC‘s new series Believe, and you’d be right. Believe reminds me a little of Stephen King’s Firestarter, and follows young Bo (Johnny Sequoyah), a girl with gifts such as levitation, telekinesis and the ability to control nature, among other things. When sinister forces (led by a mysterious character played by Kyle MacLachlan) seek to control her and her abilities, Bo’s protectors (played by Delroy Lindo and Jamie Chung) turn to an unlikely source to […]

March 4, 2014 Lori Acken

First things first, Dance Moms nation. I would like to thank those of you who pointed out Kira’s newly-missing facial mole because now it is all I can think about whenever she is onscreen.
