Jenny’s Choice #1

ncis512smallLast week’s NCIS was very emotional. The team, along with Ned Dorneget, was on the search for the group that is recruiting children and teenagers. The episode before that, Gibbs was almost killed when one of those teens blew up himself and a thankfully empty (after Gibbs got the passengers out) bus. The team figured out the group was on the hunt for S-bombs on the black market. McGee and Ned went to Egypt to try to help find the terrorist group’s leader. Unfortunately, that’s where the other six bombs were planted at the hotel they were at, and as Ned was trying to get people away from the hotel, he wasn’t able to stop a man from tripping the laser, which blew the bombs…killing Ned.

Ned was far from my favorite character, but he’d grown up so much from the time he joined the team temporarily. Being on the NCIS cyber team had done him a lot of good. When McGee flew home with his body, we met Ned’s mother…who, it turns out, is CIA. She told Gibbs that it was time to get these guys, so with her and the CIA’s help, The Calling is going down, I can only imagine — but will they take anyone else down with them? Tonight’s season finale should answer that question, but I have my fingers crossed!

On tonight’s episode, “Neverland,” NCIS feverishly investigates the Calling, a global terrorist group that is recruiting teens via the Internet, following a deadly bombing overseas that resulted in Ned Dorneget’s death. Mimi Rogers guest stars as CIA Officer Joanna Teague, Ned’s mother.

Find out if the team can take down the Calling tonight on CBS at 8/7c.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 3/17/15

Have you ever been at a loss as to what to watch? Too many shows to pick from? We’re here to give you our opinions on what we feel is worth watching. Check it out and then let us know in the comments below what you’re choosing for tonight!

Jenny’s Choice #1

izombiesmallAnyone who knows me knows I’m a huge Veronica Mars fan, so when I learned that Rob Thomas had created a new show called iZombie, I was in, regardless of the subject matter. Thankfully, the story itself seems like it’ll be a lot of fun. Rose McIver stars as Olivia “Liv” Moore (*snicker* Live more?), a medical resident who was suddenly turned into a zombie. She transfers to the city morgue for the easy access to brains, breaks things off with her soul mate (played by the sexy Robert Buckley from One Tree Hill), and tries to “live” her life as best she can. Then she figures out that with every brain she eats, she gets “visions,” which turn out to be the corpse’s memories, so with the encouragement of her boss, she works with a newbie homicide detective, using those “visions” to help solve the murders of those people whose brains she consumed.

Sounds fun, right? I hope so… I’m not a huge fan of shows on The CW. The only ones I watch every episode of are Whose Line Is It Anyway and Penn & Teller: Fool Us—I haven’t watched a non-reality show on The CW since One Tree Hill. So I’m *hoping* I like this one enough to stick with it. If anyone can make me do that, it’s Rob Thomas. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that Robert Buckley and David Anders (who will always be Julian Stark from Alias to me) are on the show as well. Hellooooo, eye candy! 😉 I really love them both in everything I’ve seen them in, so…) Also starring are Aly Michalka, Malcolm Goodwin, Molly Hagan, & Rahul Kohli.

Kyle did a press room interview for the show, which you can view on his site, NoReruns.net.

On tonight’s episode, “Pilot,” an overachieving medical resident who recently became a zombie transfers her residency to the city morgue, where she feeds on brains, but every time she does, she experiences some of the corpse’s memories, sometimes providing clues to how they died.

Meet a new kind of zombies tonight on The CW at 9/8c.
