It’s hard to believe it's almost time to check out of Grey’s Anatomy’s twelfth season, but at least it seems as if like this ending will be a romantic one.
The aptly named “At Last” will feature not one but two proposals, and I’m sure quite a bit of drama, medical and otherwise. While it’s fairly obvious that Arizona and Callie won’t be planning a second walk down the aisle after their grueling custody battle last week, Stephanie Edwards (Jerrika Hinton) and her ex-boyfriend, Kyle (guest star Wilmer Valderrama), just might be, according to the last sneak peek of the season! Stephanie committed one of the worst break-ups in history by dumping her chronically ill boyfriend via note while he was still unconscious after brain surgery. And yet in this exclusive clip of Thursday’s finale, the couple fantasizes about touring in Europe (The outcome probably depends on if Shondaland's first comedy, Toast, starring Hinton, is picked up next season). “It’s kind of deep with you. Don’t say these things if you don’t mean them,” he warns. Kyle apparently forgives quickly but he doesn’t forget. Watch the clip below! Find out if Stephanie runs away to become Dr. Groupie and if Owen and Amelia, Jackson and April and/or Alex and Jo are also bitten by the love bug on Grey’s Anatomy’s on ABC at 7/8c on Thursday!

If you're a fan of superheroes, it's ridiculously easy to get swept up in the grandiose notions of the greater good and the overwhelming cool that comes with being on the right side of good versus evil.
The concept is simple: if you are gifted with insane strength, fearlessness and a kickass utility belt or the speed force after a freak and science-y lightning strike, then it’s your duty is to do as much good as possible. It’s the actually bedrock of superhero franchises, and most come pre-packaged with their very own mottos. I’m fond of the Star Trek movie, Wrath of Khan’s “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.” Spider-Man, in most of its many iterations, is fond of “With great power comes great responsibility.” So it’s no surprise that Barry Allen—the fastest man on Earth 1—has grappled with the concept of the Capital-G Good in the last two episodes of The CW’s The Flash "Versus Zoom" and this week's "Back To Normal".
The Japril hits keep on coming.
If the divorce and April’s surprise pregnancy wasn’t enough, the baby bombshell has finally been detonated, and Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital’s hottest daddy-to-be's mental health is the collateral damage. But it wouldn’t be Grey’s Anatomy if the surgeons didn’t have epic knock-down drag-outs in the middle of the surgical ward. The sneak peek below finds Jackson (Jesse Williams) railing at April (Sarah Drew) for making yet another unilateral decision by not telling him about the baby before their divorce. And the resulting argument gets a little too intense when the normally level-headed Dr. Avery absolutely loses it. There's a belief that only the people you care about can make you that irate, but I think secret babies are the exception to that rule. It doesn’t matter if you are Team Japril or not (SSG is decidedly not), these two have roughly six months stow their baggage and unite as parents. Find out if they can at least stop screaming at each other on this Thursday’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy on ABC at 8/7c. Until then, check out the sneak peek below! Photo Credits: cosmopolitan.com
Olivia Pope is back to gladiating—and in fierce graphic prints no less! This week’s episode of Scandal is called “The Fish Rots From The Head” probably due to the pure garbage Pope & Associates has to wade through on this current case.
The sneak peek below finds Olivia (Kerry Washington) and crew tackling a ripped-from-the-headlines case in which a night of partying for the secret service ends up with a dead escort. You may remember when a dozen secret service agents were caught with prostitutes in 2012. Abby asked her to take the case, which may put her on a collision course with her ex-boyfriend, also know an the President of the United States, after six months with no communication. Do you want to see her and Fitz reunite? Watch the clip and sound off below!
For the Japril fans waiting on bated breath to find out the status of their favorite couple, your time has come! This week’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy will focus on the Jackson (Jesse Williams) and April’s (Sarah Drew) turbulent relationship following the death of their son and April’s return from overseas. The hour will feature the peaks and valleys from Japril’s rocky marriage through a series of flashbacks.
The sneak peek below gives us a taste of a hellacious low as April rails at Jackson for serving her with divorce papers at work. Keen-eyed fans may remember Meredith watching this very fight in the fantastic "The Sound Of Silence" that aired two weeks ago.
Remember when Meredith had finally recovered from Derek’s death, and Goddess of Shondaland, Shonda Rhimes, promised that season 12 of “Grey’s Anatomy” shift back to his lighter, rom-com-inspired roots? Well, she lied.
As if the wait for tonight’s first new episode of 2016—one that takes us back to the cage where Sam is trapped with Lucifer—wasn’t hard enough, a new “Supernatural” promo that’s positively dripping with angst and blood just dropped.
Stars Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki both tweeted a link to a promo shared by Shaving People, Punting Things, and it epically sets up the next half of the season in which Sam, Dean and Castiel each have an enemy to defeat. Dust off your favorite trucker cap and brush up on your Tori Spelling gossip because Bobby Singer is returning of Supernatural!
Actor Jim Beaver will once again reprise his role in this season’s 16th episode as beloved surrogate father to the world’s hottest demon hunters, TVLine.com reports. Wait, there’s more! Bobby’s late BFF Rufus (Steven Williams) is returning too! EP Jeremy Carver told TVLine.com that the upcoming episode will feature the “wonderful relationship between Bobby and Rufus” in flashbacks as Sam and Dean (Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles respectively) re-visit one of Bobby and Rufus’ cold cases. Rufus met his maker in the season 6’s “And Then There Were None.” Fan favorite Bobby died in the season 7’s fantastic “Death’s Door” but has returned several times, most recent being last season’s “Inside Man.” All new episodes begin on January 20. Who else would you like to see return to Supernatural? Sound off below! Photo Credits: ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com In entertainment, the simple, well-executed ideas are usually the best. For instance: a steamy television drama about two troubled-but-otherwise happily married people engage in a torrid, forbidden affair. If done right, it could be Emmy gold, right?
This is the premise for Showtime’s sexy drama, “The Affair.” Thanks to freedom from restrictive broadcast censors and the need for edgy programming, “The Affair,” now in its second season, takes the delicious concept and brilliantly executes it with provocative, “are-they-really-doing-it?” sex scenes and ingenious dual-perspective writing. Dominic West, Ruth Wilson, Golden Globe-nominated Maura Tierney and Joshua Jackson round out an excellent cast. Sounds like fantastic TV, right? It might be, but there's one tiny problem: I hate this show. In fact, I love hating it. It sounds bizarre, but hate-watching is a real thing, and a step beyond trainwreck television. It's when a show is so horrific that you hate it and the characters, but not enough to actually stop watching. It’s the entertainment equivalent to that co-worker that drives you crazy but you actively seek them out just to be annoyed by them. It’s simultaneously gratifying, because you were right, and aggravating, because they are just so irritating (Another show, I hate-watch: Bravo's "Apres Ski," which is complete with terrible employees, racial tension, and uber-rich snowbunnies set in picturesque Whistler, Canada). Humans are nothing if not gluttons for punishment, as are the severely flawed nutjobs in Showtime’s infidelity drama. Here are five reasons why I love to hate “The Affair.” If you watch a show long enough, you begin to follow the rules of that specific universe and learn lessons from the show’s characters. As a longtime “Supernatural” fan and recapper, I reflexively freak out if anyone’s fingertips come anywhere near a garbage disposal. And I don’t automatically attribute flickering lights to electrical issues, I get the damn rock salt.
This week's zany and unexpectedly emotional episode “Just My Imagination" taught me many things while sneaking in a few swift, sparkly kicks to the feels. Here are the biggest lessons from this week’s episode of “Supernatural.” Imaginary friends are real. They are Zannas are fairy-esque creatures assigned to young children to give them love, guidance and never-ending fun until the children are confident enough to stand on their own. They can take any form the child desires: mystical mermaid, mulleted air-rocker, or a half-man, half-unicorn. Sam’s Zanna is a rainbow-suspendered, fiercely protective goober named Sully. Dean never had one, which falls in line with the show’s cannon that he never really was a child. He responds like he normally does to things that make him uncomfortable—with abject revulsion and snarky distrust. He comes around, of course, the second he realizes that Sully is almost as protective of Sam as he is. His final verdict: "You're a good weird." We'll take it. Manicorns bleed sparkly blood. In one of the most creatively hilarious scenes of the episode, Maddie’s unlikable mother unknowingly squishes through the glittery carnage of Sparkle's crime scene (including his cleaved horn) and smears his blood all over face, much to the horror of Sam and Dean and an invisible and near hysterical Sully. “Even when he’s dead, Sparkle can’t stop shining,” Sully sniffles. Sam was a lonely kid. When Dean scoffs as to why Sam would need a Zanna since he had a big brother, Sam reveals that was lonely. The episode's flashbacks quickly and viscerally convey a nine-year-old Sam’s solitude as he's left alone while Sam and Dean hunt. Sully encourages Sam with heart-bursting love and does his best to fill the tacky motel rooms with dreams of freedom and marshmallow nachos. “You can be whatever you want to be. You're not Dean; you're not your dad. You’re Sam. And Sam is so awesome.” He is, isn't he? |
