A shame. Miss him; miss Richard Jeni from back in the day, too, whose shows were featured here on yesterday’s front page.

Much as I have loved the Alien/Xenomorph franchise, the introduction of the David/Covenant/Prometheus offshoot just left me cold. I know, I know, Weyland Corp. is crucial to the overall mythology…I just found zero to like about those two films, and about David in particular. Ash and Bishop were enough.

I see Watts as abit of a Columbo/Groucho Marx/vaudviilian goof balls mix.

That’s a hilarious description of Watts! No, he has no impairments other than being a bendy, weavy, “lovable goof.” This isn’t solely a crime show. It contains many, many funny scenes/episodes and a lot of them have Watts in the lead role.

This is not a spoiler, I just have a question about the series overall for anyone here who watches regularly - and I’m asking because I don’t want to come off as mocking a (possible) disability, because I’m not. My question is, what is up with the Watts actor? He lurches around, bends, contorts, leans and weaves in and out of every scene he’s in. He’s never simply walking or standing. Is this for comedy? I know Canadian crime shows like to have at least one character who comes off as a “lovable goof” so is this what I’m seeing? Or is he in fact impaired in some way? I love the person he plays but I’m really wondering….and the forum does not open for me, or I’d ask there.

I gotta give these up ROFL. That’s two wack Lifetime pics in a row.
No. NO NO NO!!!! Just….NO! Lifetime believes women will resolve issues this way? NOOOO.

A dreadful film! No one behaves the way these characters did. ABSOLUTELY NO ONE.

I have never seen a more insipid example of “writing a script”—-and that’s saying something considering this is a Lifetime movie. 😠

The movie was typical Lifetime; you go in knowing what’s coming, so no issues there.

One odd thing, though: the opening credits listed the particulars of this film (actors names, crew etc.) but the closing credits listed actors and characters from an entirely different movie. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that happen before, even in Lifetime films, some of which can have more than one title.

This was a very involving tale from start to finish. One or two plot holes did not detract from it overall. I’m glad to see “Vera” has returned to the schedule.

I love the Yautja so much that I sat through this. This one, and the later movie released in 2018, which was even worse, just about ruined the franchise IMO. Somebody needs a good smack or three.

My dad loved this one most of all. He was a high school principal, and really understood Poitier’s character of the caring teacher who does great things with kids that others saw few positive traits in. R.I.P.

Why don’t ‘shiners always steam off the heads that way…? Looks efficient.

Plot hole, after plot hole, after—-you guessed it—-plot hole. Geez.
Did I mention the plot holes?

Perversely funny short:)

Well, the plot doth thicken…and I for one am fascinated.

I generally really enjoy movies with a “most-dangerous-game” kind of plot, but this one was not well constructed at all. Things picked up a little in the last segment but too much of the tale was just nonsense and lots of yakking between idiots. Earns a grade D.

A treat! They did a holiday-time episode! Thanks to uploaders for getting this to us. 🥰

I can’t recommend this one. Far too kooky all around, in every way. I think I understood the conclusion-slash-payoff, but I can’t even say I’m positive about that. A real mess, sadly.

I remember this one from awhile back. It’s fun, with a nice Lifetime-movie twist to enjoy. Quite stylishly told, also.

Okay I need more of this…!

Yes, this is pretty much the gist of the tale….

Excellent review, YgraineDance. Thank you.

Oooh a Scott Adkins movie! I am so in!!!

*Edit after viewing: Very entertaining! A simple cat ‘n mouse story and some fun along the way. Adkins worked well with Lundgren, and both delivered on the action.

A trend I have been enjoying (and am looking forward to in Expendables IV, among others) is how some of our much-loved action stars are comfortable with showing the very human changes that come with time, work, and age. No longer do they really have to pretend to be 29 years old ad infinitum. We love them because we love them and knew them “when”. I look forward to the day when more American actors/actresses can do this, in this genre of film as well as others.

Great animated chapter in the Riddick franchise bridges the gap between
Pitch Black (2000) and Chronicles of Riddick (2004).

I was entertained; knew I would be. We’re given some characters to root for and laugh with. It’s a fun movie with some actors really hamming it up and enjoying themselves. Marvel is always a good bet. 😃

A harrowing tale, indeed. Lifetime does fairly well this time around, in that they didn’t have to present an over-the-top caricature because real life presented plenty of insanity!

This so is soooo wrong. 🤣

The high quality of this show remains, and even improves, as casting changes occur. This is one excellent program!

All three of those flavors sounded like delicious winners to me. What a cool show.

anyone else find it weird/creepy when Hana asked Ivan if he was sexually active?

Like other posters here, I feel that this show has been consistently clever and fun, and I’ve followed it with great enjoyment from the beginning. The writers have hit another home run with this episode. Such creativity! I wish this team could also write for a few other sci-fantasy shows needing massive shots in the arm.

This was really well done. I commend the writers for this very nice wrap-up to the series, which had its ups and downs over the years, but always tried to uplift and show positivity. 👍🏽

The teen actors are terrible. They are just so generic. I like it enough to keep watching.
