Since I
will discuss several series tonight I decided not to attach a description of
the subjects.
Review:
Homeland...
Does anyone actually like Homeland? I guess someone does, they just signed the
contract for a fourth season. If I'm totally honest - and you will discover in
the future if you keep reading my blog that I am a very honest person that
always says what she thinks - I must admit that I don't really like Homeland. But
Still, I follow it every single week, without never skipping one. I don't know
if it's my addiction or just because the series is better than I want to
believe. Who will say, because I don't know. So every week, I'm ready in my
couch for watching Homeland. Always horribly annoyed by the intro and that
headache giving intro music.
I said in a previous blog that I quote on 6 things. And choice of music is one of them. Well, I'm sorry Homeland fans, but for me it get it big Zero.
But of course there are other things that make a series. You have the storyline for instance. I find the main concept of homeland actually very good. A soldier that gets turned. Goes undercover in his own world (well kind off previous world). He goes back to his family, he's suddenly the role model for everything in America. And while everyone is praising him, he plans an attack on America. But then, twist oh twist, he turns against the ones who turned him. Are you still following?
I don't know, it's my feeling that they didn't think this through, this whole workout from the storyline. Sadly though, this series could be really top. But then again, it must be since it has 4 seasons already and a series like Stargate Universe just gets cut of like that.
But the real reason I keep watching every week, is because every week I hope the series will have a turn for the better. But I'm still waiting...

Enough
rambling about Homeland. Let's take a look at Revenge, shall we?
The title of Revenge says it all. This series is all about revenge. Revenge of one girl. When I first decided to give Revenge a try I had no clue what to expect. In the beginning I really looked a bit skeptical towards the series. Some of the people that were chosen came right out The bold and the beautiful (not for real, just my opinion) But all prejudice aside, I kept my 3 episodes rule and I actually started to get intrigued. Now every week I look forward to what revenge plan Emily Thorn (Emily VanCamp) will pull out of her sleeve and which one will be the unfortunate to undermine her plan, on purpose or not.
What else can I say about Revenge? If you like a series with loads of drama, bit of a smile here and there, beautiful scenery, evil women and Twist in a twist in a twist. Then Revenge is definitely the series that you are looking for. If you have watched it, let me know what you think of it in the comments.

Witches of East End. Before I give you my opinion about WoEE
(easier then to have to write it out all the time) let me sketch first what this series is
about. Setting is nowadays with a single mother and 2 daughters end their 20's.
Suddenly something happens and the two girls discover that they are actually
immortal powerful witches.
Does this
ring a bell? Girls, end in their 20's living at home, suddenly powerful
witches? Well ye, maybe not everyone will make the link. But everyone that ever
saw/followed Charmed should see the
link. Because that was basically the pilot of Charmed. So only because of that
(and I'm not kidding) I checked it out.
The first episode was only so and so but then it actually came better. at this present time there have 5 episodes aired. And like it's supposed to be when you are a real series addict. I haven't missed a single one yet. The first episode was a bit boring, because they didn't really explain anything. They were avoiding the subject. But now that the girls now that they are all powerful witches the fun is beginning. And aside from the begin plot this series has absolutely nothing to do with Charmed. And that made me really happy. Only one small thing that bugs me, and that is the same like from in revenge. Some characters seem to have run away from The Bold and The Beautiful. But then again maybe that is just me. I would love to hear your opinion about this.
What else can I say, there is a love triangle relationship going on with the youngest daughter. It's between her, her fiancé and his brother. And I get the feeling that we will see quite a lot more of that in the coming weeks.
This series is for people who love to see magic on TV, with a little bit of drama but also nice magical humor. For total for this series at this time I would give it an 8/10. But maybe that might still change.
Keep reading my blog in the coming weeks for more updates.
