  1. Dead Reckoning by Mercedes Lackey & Rosemary Edghill – a B-grade western/zombie/steampunk mashup (think Wild Wild West) j.mp/LA8CGk
  2. @fishgirl182 Definitely Netflix! Lol. I actually haven't seen Expendables 1 yet, but it's in the queue... :)
  3. Meet Leigh Bardugo, author of Shadow and Bone j.mp/JA9tt2 @LBardugo @MacKidsBooks
  4. Just started Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo and holy smokes am I LOVING this book to pieces!.
  5. Huh. Not sure quite what to make of The Great Gatsby trailer - but it definitely has that Baz Lurhmann flare bit.ly/KdlAZv
  6. Meet Deborah Coates, author of Wide Open j.mp/M1tzZX
  7. Ah, so The CW *is* redeveloping The Selection. Interesting...
  8. Show I wish I could like more than I'm going to: NBC's Revolution (JJ Abrams). It just seems to rub me the wrong way for some reason...
  9. Shows that might just be smart AND good: ABC's Last Resort (Shawn Ryan) & Fox's The Following (Kevin Williamson)
  10. Show my Mom is most likely to adore: ABC's Nashville. Behind the scenes of the country music scene? You had my Mom at hello
  11. CBS' Elementary, by the way, is the second show most likely to earn a staying slot on my Season Pass list. I am liking Watson as a girl...
  12. Show that's the most egregious rip-off: ABC's Zero Hour - looks like a total Da Vinci code knock-off (ha, were you expecting Elementary?)
  13. Show I'm most likely to Season Pass on my Tivo: The CW's Beauty and the Beast.
  14. Alright, so it's upfronts week - here are my snap judgments on the new TV shows coming this fall:
  15. Batgirl: Year One by Scott Beatty & Chuck Dixon – Did you love Batman: TAS or Beyond? Then this comic is def for you! j.mp/Mpik0j
  16. Just have to say - holy smokes am I LOVING Legend of Korra! That was AWESOME :) #korranation
  17. As for the CW's The Hollows pilot, I think we have to conclude it's dead. If they were rolling it over, they would have said something...
