The number is 666!!

Now that school is started I am committed to writing this blog at least twice a week. No matter the work load.  I have come to love reviewing my favorite TV shows, movies, comics and anything that entertains me. So that takes me to my favorite TV viewing day, Sunday. I sat down to Dexter, and Homeland, when flipping through the channels I had picked up a new show called 666 Park Avenue.

Now that Deb Morgan (Jennifer Carpenter) has uncovered her brother is a serial killer, she has decided Dexter (Michael C.Hall) has an addiction and she can help him beat it. He only has to spend every moment of everyday with her. Our clever Dexter however has learned to drug her steak (loaded syringe) to get a little time to himself when needed.  Not only that, La Guerta (Lauren Velez) is really trying to find out who the Bay Harbor Butcher is. If that were not enough, Dexter is having a problem with Louis Cook (Josh Greene). Louis appears to not fear Dexter, even after being threatened. So Dexter is having to "up" the terror in Louis' life.

 

On the Homeland front Carrie (Clair Danes) simply can not trust herself after being so wrong about Brodie  ( Damian lewis-though we know she is dead on target). So when of the informers she made will not speak to anyone else, they send Carrie with Saul (Mandy Patinkin) to Lebanon. It seems that Abu Nazir, a terrorist (who is a contact of Brodie's) is set up for capture. Brodie finds out and warns him at the last minute.  Carrie captures papers and a video of Brodie's involvement.  Saul watches it knowing she was right all along.  Carrie runs through the streets of Beruit looking like a crazy woman, but crazy like a fox.  When she goes home she is a little lonely for the CIA, she's missing being a part of it. So there is more than enough for an adrenaline rush with this show.

Now to my new find.  The infamous number 666, the mark of the beast is part of the title of this new supernatural drama, 666 Park Avenue. It is based on a book of the same name, and tells the story of a couple who live in the Drake in NYC. While living there they discover, that it is haunted, possessed and otherwise disturbed.  Jane Van Veen and Henry Martin (Rachael Taylor and Dave Annable) co-manage The Drake (filmed using the Beaux-Arts building, upper East Side Manhattan).  Early on, Jane is having a psychic connection with the building when it invades her sleep with a dream about a 53 year old murder. The building is haunted by murderous starlings, and even stranger owners, Olivia and Gavin Doran (Vanessa Williams and Terry O'Quinn). I am thinking this kind of weirdness is right up my alley and can't wait to see what develops.

So that is it for tonight, I am hoping you have a great week.  I will see you later!!
