I’ve been hearing people rave about Moonlight since it premiered on CBS in the 2007-2008 season. I should know by now that whenever there’s a major cult following for a show, you’ve gotta believe it’s something special. But you never really know until you watch it for yourself. Now I know. Moonlight is special. And […]
(Season 5, Episode 12 – “Stairway to Heaven” ) “I believe in Heaven … I also believe in Hell. I’ve never seen either, but I believe they exist. They have to exist, because without a Heaven, without a Hell, we’re all just headed for limbo.” – Denny’s voiceover Holy Talomey, what an episode! We had people […]

(Season 7, Episode 5 – 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. ) Nothing about this episode really grabbed me until the last few minutes. And then it got fairly intense. But up until then, I was just, eh…. Watching this episode, I kept harking back to earlier seasons of 24: Jack shooting his friend (well, more […]
