HOLLYWOOD—Man, the third season of the FOX hit “Empire” has been a stay in your seat, can’t wait to see what happens thrill-ride since the end of season 2. Yes, I will admit, season two was ok, but it was not a must-see guilty pleasure like season 1. Well, season 3 has totally made up for it. After a...

HOLLYWOOD—I will be honest, it took “Survivor: Cambodia” aka ‘Second Chances’ to revitalize my interest in the CBS reality hit that changed the scope of reality television when it debuted nearly 15 plus years ago. I’ve watched the past few seasons, with a revitalized excitement, but when you label a season ‘Game Changers” I actually expect to have game-changing...

HOLLYWOOD—This week’s episode of “Pretty Little Liars” was a fun one people, especially considering it was directed by star Troian Bellisario. ‘In the Eye Abides the Heart,’ the episode kicked off with Emily and Alison having a conversation about the complicated situation involving Emily being a mom-to-be. Looks like Aria has indeed crossed to the dark side, as A.D....

HOLLYWOOD—Well, Tyler Perry sure knows how to amplify the drama when needed on his soapy series “If Loving You is Wrong.” This week’s episode, ‘Angry Men’ alerted Kelly that getting that gun to protect herself from Travis is not a bad idea. He nearly choked her to death, well unconscious. Finally, a woman spotted Travis attacking Kelly and was...

HOLLYWOOD—I wrote about the first episode of “Iron Chef Gauntlet” when it premiered back on Easter Sunday, since then I have entertained myself by watching each episode, but I must admit I’m not a fan. After discovering the rebirth of a classic food competition in my opinion, the focus was more on Alton Brown instead of the chefs going...

HOLLYWOOD—While the storylines have not yet exploded for May sweeps on the CBS soap “The Young and the Restless,” there is no shortage of drama on the soap. There are so MANY and I mean so many relationships dealing with massive ups and downs I’m not certain where to begin. I guess we’ll start off with the biggest love...

HOLLYWOOD—I was NOT happy at all with last week’s episode of Tyler Perry’s “If Loving You is Wrong.” The idea of trying to make the audience appear as stupid as the characters does not make me a happy camper. So this week’s episode, ‘No One is Safe’ did shake things up a bit as the audience began to see...

HOLLYWOOD—Well, the Queen has returned to the foray. To be honest I find this surprising considering that BET no longer really plays videos on the network anymore. It’s similar to what MTV has done; I mean I recall when all you witnessed were music videos 24-7 on these Cable network channels. The nominations for the 2017 BET Awards were unveiled...

HOLLYWOOD—Its May sweeps and storylines are hitting a feverish pitch on some of your favorite soaps, especially Emmy award-winning “General Hospital.” The big plotline of the hour is the mysteries of little Jake and the backstory of Jason Morgan who was MIA for several years before returning to his friends and family. We all know the wicked Helena Cassadine...

HOLLYWOOD—Love is a crazy thing people and it makes us all do crazy things sometimes. Well, love is indeed in the air on the CBS soap “The Bold and the Beautiful.” Thomas fell quite hard for Sally Spectra; heck, she’s unlike any woman he has ever met. She’s bold; she’s blunt and not afraid to go toe-to-toe with his...
