The Royals: With Mirth in Funeral and With Dirge in Marriage (2018) Season 4, Episode 10

Great suspense - but we will never know -

[9/10 · 8 October 2020]

I just finished the series as the finale came on regular TV 2 weeks ago. Although it was a very good episode, I agree, bad ending because it left everything in suspense. We can figure out why she said yes to Robert and maybe the kidnapping was related to that. I have to say, the script and acting were good since I really hated Robert! manipulative, self-serving creep. Way worse than Cyrus who at least was candid about his plans and feelings! Anyway, very sad it ended...

Madam Secretary (2014–2019)

Amazing show, great actors, great chemistry

[9/10 · 13 November 2015]

I gave it a 9 because, although the situations are realistic enough, they get resolved usually in one episode - less realistic. Else, I LOVE Tea and Tim's on screen chemistry and their relationship dynamic. All the actors are great, from Tea and Tim as well as the entire support staff, Bebe Niewirth and Geoffrey Arend, Patina Miller and the one you love to hate, Z Ivanek. Keith is at his best, decision maker and ruler. Loved him in Dexter too... And on the lighter side, he's cool in the Big Bang as Penny's dad. The filming is great, locations and sets realistic and there is tension in both the situations with the friend who is a traitor... Tim Daly is a lucky man and Tea a lucky woman to have each other both on and off screen. I can't wait to see the next episodes! Worth the wait!

9-Month Stretch (2013)

Hilarious. A great way to spend 90 minutes.

[9/10 · 4 November 2013]

I loved Dupontel in Odette Toulemonde. He is more than brilliant here. The story, albeit completely unlikely, is funny, silly, smart and just a great movie you can only come out smiling. Both principal actors do a marvelous job and you will not be disappointed. See it and laugh. Ypu will also get a few cameos. The Artist's Jean Dujardin makes an appearance as the funniest, nonsensical hearing impaired translator on the local TV news channel and Terry Gilliam has a cameo too. I am usually not into French film, even if French is my mother tongue, but every now and then, such as les Ch'tis and a few others, this gets top comedy rating. Odette was also a masterpiece. I think I will go check out Dupontel's other films. Enjoy!
