The Anatomy of 'Frankenstorm' [VIDEO]

Posted on by

The scariest thing you'll see this Halloween, at least if you live along the East Coast of the U.S., may not be an adult dressed in a "Honey Boo Boo" costume. Rather, it's likely to be the effects of "Frankenstorm."

[More from Mashable: Hurricane Isaac Hits New Orleans: Social Media Plays Eye Witness]

Frankenstorm is the name the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has given the monster weather event that's expected to hit the eastern seaboard sometime around -- you guessed it -- Halloween.

We could try explaining to you why it's called Frankenstorm, but the best and most clearheaded explanation we've found yet comes from the Associated Press Science Writer Seth Borenstein. He describes the weather event as "a collection of things," combining Hurricane Sandy (heading northward in the Atlantic ocean), a storm front from the western part of the U.S. and some cold air mixed in from the Great Lakes.

[More from Mashable: This Amazing Photo Is Not Of Tropical Storm Isaac]

Watch and learn. Knowing won't prevent Frankenstorm's arrival, but understanding its makeup and potential intensity could help you better prepare. Speaking of which, if you live on the East Coast of the U.S., how are your preparing for "Frankenstorm?"

'Grey's Anatomy' Preview: Arizona Takes a Big Step, While Meredith Holds Back (Videos)

Posted on by

"Grey's Anatomy's" Jessica Capshaw

Arizona is preparing to take a big step forward on this week's Grey's Anatomy.

During Thursday's episode, titled "I Saw Her Standing There," the formerly cheery pediatrics surgeon begins to take control of her life following the plane crash that forced the amputation of her left leg.

STORY: 'Grey's Anatomy' Recap: Settling In for the Long Haul

Ethan Embry (Empire Records) guest stars as David, who gets off to a rocky start as Arizona's (Jessica Capshaw) prosthetist as they begin the process of getting her back on her feet. While Arizona is still less than pleased to be there, the good-natured doc does have some good news for Arizona: There's no scar tissue and her amputation is healing well.

STORY: 'Grey's Anatomy's' Jessica Capshaw on Arizona's Heartbreaking Loss and What's Next

Meanwhile, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) realizes that she can't share all the (exciting) details of her surgical exploits with Derek, who is still unable to operate and continues to find his new career teaching less than a suitable replacement.

STORY: 'Grey's Anatomy's' Kevin McKidd on Hope for Cristina and Owen: 'They're Still Destined to be Together'

As for the Chief, BCB Bailey (Chandra Wilson) gives him a hard time for sporting a spiffy tie to the hospital. After Webber (James Pickens Jr.) blows her off, citing that he's just taking pride in his appearance, his true motive is revealed when Jackson's mother, Catherine (Debbie Allen) seems to take a liking to his more-formal attire.

Check out the clips from the episode, above and below, and hit the comments with your thoughts. Are you happy to see Arizona's progress?

Anatomy of a campaign ad: 'The Romney-Mourdock ticket'

Posted on by

Liberal super PAC American Bridge releases a video aligning Mitt Romney with the Republican Indiana Senate candidate whose abortion views are fueling outrage

The ad creator: Liberal super PAC American Bridge

The ad: The spot mischievously recasts Mitt Romney's recent endorsement ad for Richard Mourdock (R) as a seeming endorsement of inflammatory comments the Indiana Senate candidate made at an Oct. 23 debate namely that pregnancies that result from rape are what "God intended to happen." The American Bridge ad begins by quoting Romney saying he supports Mourdock in the Indiana race, then a block of text fills the screen: "And what does Richard Mourdock support?" Using clips from the Senate hopeful's various speeches on the trail, the ad accuses Mourdock of "normalizing rape," "extremism" for requesting more zealots in the Republican Party, "climate change denial" for calling "man-induced climate change" a hoax, and "blind partisanship" for dismissing the value of bipartisanship. As these clips play, a silly looking photo of Romney giving the thumbs up hovers in the screen's corner.

SEE MORE: Pennsylvania Senate: The race at a glance

The ad buy: The group has not disclosed the size of the ad buy.

The strategy:The ad's goal is fairly simple, says Politico.American Bridge wants to smear Romney by creating the illusion that he and Mourdock are "campaigning together" on Mourdock's platform and hit two birds with one stone.

SEE MORE: 5 controversial ballot initiatives from around the nation

The reaction: Mourdock "unofficially lost the race" with his abortion remarks, "apparently [forgetting] that women vote," says Michael Luciano at PolicyMic. Mourdock has since clarified his statement, saying, "God creates life, and that was my point. God does not want rape, and by no means was I suggesting that he does." While Romney immediately disavowed Mourdock's statement, other Republicans came to the Senate candidate's defense, including National Republican Senatorial Committee Executive Director Rob Jesmer, who tells The Hill that Mourdock's belief "is something a lot of Republicans and a lot of Democrats believe. Most pro-life people believe life is a gift." Still, says Cameron Joseph at The Hill, the "comments could hurt Mourdock, who has failed to pull ahead" of his Democratic opponent Rep. Joe Donnelly in the polls, despite Indiana's heavy Republican tilt. And this ad wont help.

Grey's Anatomy's Kevin McKidd on Cristina's Big Mistake and His "Upbeat" Episode

Posted on by

Sandra Oh and Kevin McKidd

Grey's Anatomy will lighten up a bit when Kevin McKidd steps behind the camera for the fourth time for Thursday's episode.

Following the plane crash which brought on the deaths of Mark (Eric Dane) and Lexie (Chyler Leigh) and the amputation of Arizona's (Jessica Capshaw) leg Grey's kicked off its ninth season on a very dark note. But McKidd promises he's about to turn that around with what he calls an "upbeat" episode.

Grey's Anatomy Scoop: Is there hope for Cristina and Owen?

"I think the writers felt the audience needed a break, so Episode 4 is really fun," McKidd tells TVGuide.com. "All my other episodes have been quite intense, so it's been really fun to break out of that. I think people will be relieved to take a rest and just get to have fun with the show a little bit after the first few episodes."

The storylines that offer comedic relief include a patient with huge testicles, which McKidd says they had trouble shooting around. Plus: Catherine Avery (Debbie Allen) returns, which causes a rift between Jackson (Jesse Williams) and Dr. Webber (James Pickens, Jr.). "Jackson and Richard have a big standoff about the ongoing saga of him dating Catherine," McKidd teases. "Bailey [Chandra Wilson] weighs in on that."

Grey's Anatomy is a drama, however, so there will be one very large obstacle for fans of Cristina (Sandra Oh) and Owen's relationship. to get through this week. Spoiler Alert: The promos don't lie! "[Cristina] has a sexual relationship with somebody else in Minnesota," McKidd says. Dun Dun Dunnnn! Also... really? Dr. Parker (Steven Culp)? Really?!

But there is hope on the horizon: McKidd says Cristina's exploits are an "empty experience for her."

"It fulfills a certain need for her, but there's certainly not that same thing that she gets when Cristina and Owen are together," he says. "It's going to be really interesting to see how to get back and whether they're able to. They may still love each other, but there might just be too much hurt going on. There might just be too much baggage to really be able to heal or rebuild. It's a painful truth, but I think Cristina and Owen wish they could be back together, even though they're apart."

Anatomy of a Fall: How Dangerous Was Casey Wilson's Glass Window Fall on Happy Endings?

Posted on by

Eliza Coupe, Casey Wilson

Sixteen stiches. That was the price Happy Endings paid for one of the funniest falls through a glass window ever.

Thanksgiving clams! The year of Max! 8 spoilers for Happy Endings Season 3

Fortunately, Casey Wilson did not have to pay that price, since it was a stunt double that stood in for the comedian, who portrays the hopelessly single Penny on the ABC comedy. "I did the beginning and the end and we had a stunt double," Wilson tells TVGuide.com. "I was like, 'I'll let her do this." I went back to my trailer. She went through the glass. Eliza [Coupe] came and banged on the door. She's like, 'There's trouble!'

"The woman had to go to the hospital to make me look funny," the SNL alum continues. "She had blood all over her like Carrie. She was wonderful, and she's totally fine. Because the glass is so fine, it makes you bleed so it was one of the scariest things we've ever seen. We only did one take and it worked."

Anatomy of a Fall: Modern Family's Julie Bowen went down hard by accident

No stranger to physical comedy, Wilson had actually offered to do the stunt herself. "I thought it would be funny, like, 'I'll go through the plate glass. That's fun to do your own stunts!' What am I, Charlize Theron? No! They're like, 'You can't go through the glass, it really cuts you.' I was like, 'My face! My beautiful face! I can't go through there!'

"It was worth it," she continues. "I didn't want to tell [the stunt double] there was no film in the camera," Wilson says with a laugh. Obviously, she's joking. In case you didn't watch it over and over again on your DVR already, you can watch it again (and again) below:

Happy Endings airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on ABC.

Blue Bloods Review: Whatever It Takes

Posted on by

The Reagan family has 115 years of police history sitting around its dinner table.  It's a family that has had to weigh the "Risk and Reward" of the job on more occasions than they probably remember. 

So when Frank told Danny to do whatever it took to find Detective Mulrow, he didn't give that order lightly.

Danny Searches For a Hostage

Was it the right call to make?  Obviously it achieved the desired result.  A decorated detective's life was saved but the risk of taking Abdul out of prison and placing him in Danny's custody was huge.  So many things could have gone wrong. I kept wondering if that was Omar's goal to begin with so that he could break his brother out of prison.

Danny's ploy of turning Sayid over to Malaysian special forces was well played and the detectives from Vice looked menacing enough in their big, black SUV to pull it off. 

As much as Frank Reagan's the moral compass of Blue Bloods, at times his choices are questionable.  There's certainly an argument for both sides here. 

Frank's position is to uphold the law. When he bends it or breaks it, or allows others to do so, how can we trust in that system?

At the same time don't we all want to believe that there is someone in charge that is willing to do whatever it takes to keep us safe, whether that's an entire city or just one innocent man.  Wasn't that why 24 was such a hit after 9/11.  The audience found comfort in the thought that Jack Bauer was out there willing to do whatever it takes.

Out of that 115 years of NYPD experience, 60 of them belonged to Henry Reagan. I loved the idea of having him ride along with Jamie, I just wished we had seen them do more than deal with a pizza truck dispute.

When Henry agreed with Jamie's partner about hauling the bickering brother and sister off to jail, it obviously irked Jamie. Again, I had to agree with a partner. The brother and sister were like a couple of bickering children only their petty dispute was ending with 911 calls.  At some point they needed to learn that there would be consequences or as Henry put it in this Blue Bloods quote…

 Sometimes a kick in the ass is worth a thousand words. | permalink

When Jamie accused Henry of believing he was a bad cop I had to roll my eyes.  At what point does Jamie Reagan stop sounding like a belligerent teenager?

And I had trouble believing that after multiple visits to the scene that one stern talking to by Jamie was all it took to resolve this family feud.

So, did you enjoy Henry's ride along? Was Jamie right to take offense or was he far too sensitive when it came to Henry's comments about his partner. And did you agree with Frank's decision to do whatever it takes?

Grimm Review: One of Two Choices

Posted on by

It’s rather surprising that Grimm, a show that plays with Halloween on a weekly basis, could not pull off a very compelling Halloween episode.

Sure, "La Llorona" as a person with the screaming, bleeding eyes, creepy factor identity as a ghost is totally working for her on Halloween, but her story did not offer anything very compelling. Her only real purpose, it seems, was to get Juliette involved with the family so the Grandma could tell her she has a choice to make. 

The Bully of Halloween

Which is a great launching pad as Juliette heads off on the next part of her journey this season; however, Juliette’s “choice” isn’t really hers to make. Since the beginning of the season, Juliette’s choices are really just symptoms of her current ailment. 

With Juliette’s memories of Nick still completely gone, it’s hard to see how any choice Juliette ends up making will have any honesty whatsoever because those decisions will be made under false pretenses. 

Sure, Juliette can try her best to make the right choices, and I believe she knows what the “right” choice is, but, on the other hand, I also have a feeling that she might want to see what the “other” choice might bring about. Especially when this obsession Renard has with her, at times, looks like a two way street.

Aside from Juliette, “La Llorona” didn’t have much to it, nor it did it push anything else along that was mildly interesting aside from Monroe. Even then, Monroe seems to be lost in the wild while Rosalee is off helping her family.

To be frank, aside from the one scene with Juliette tonight's episode ends up being one of the most boring episodes of Grimm I have ever watched, and that disappoints me the most.

Other thoughts:

  • Ever since Hank got in on the action the Grimm-pedias have English descriptions.
  • How many children cases in a row are we going to get?
  • Juliette lived in Spain, which borders France, could she have had a royal encounter?
  • At least Monroe got to scare off some no good kids!

Grey’s Anatomy Photo Preview: "Beautiful Doom"

Posted on by

Grey's Anatomy returns Thursday, November 8 with "Beautiful Doom," an installment that will find a young woman in peril after getting trapped under a car and Meredith Grey desperate to save her life.

This case, clearly, hits close to home for the show's titular character.

Mer and Lil Zola

This is just half of the Meredith & Cristina-centric episode, which features the two friends continuing to cope with life after the plane crash and their ever-growing responsibilities at their respective hospitals.

As Meredith juggles taking care of Zola during the aforementioned crisis, Cristina assists Dr. Thomas on a challenging heart surgery, as seen in ABC's first Grey's Anatomy promo for the show's return.

Nikita Review: New Division Targets Mini-Nikita

Posted on by

Division's quest for The Dirty Thirty hit a bit of a snag this week. It came in the small package of a kidnapped girl.

Instead of just tracking down a rogue former agent, the team had to contend with a young girl who was programmed to be just as lethal as they each are. This case was wrought with ties to the agents' past lives and the old Division.

Nikita and Alex's early days at Division were reflected back at them through Liza. All three of them were trained to kill and forced to forget their families. By saving Liza, it was if they had saved themselves.

The Innocent Bomber

After Nikita shared her secret hiding place with Liza and returned her necklace, I was shocked that she attacked her guard and escaped. I really shouldn't have been though, because the psychological damage from Division training runs deep.

Liza had to return to Wade, because it was what she was trained to do and she also feared for her family. Wade was obsessed with righting his previous recruit's failing by having Liza kill the Pakistani, Saeed Tamir, now. That would restore his perfect training kill rate.

Liza left a clue that led Nikita to the kill location. Liza's moves were quite impressive in the bathroom and into the air ducts. Between taking out the Division guard and her movements on the mission, she was like a mini-Nikita. Wade may have been delusional, but he was a good trainer.

In the end, Nikita was able to break through Wade's control and convince Liza to turn off the bomb detonator. Liza still had a connection to her family through the necklaces she shared with her mother. 

Just as Nikita had saved Alex, they now saved Liza. It was touching to watch them return Liza to her family. Though, Liza was right, she would make an excellent agent. I wouldn't be surprised if that's where she ends up in the future. Though, this time on her own terms.

While Nikita was rescuing Liza, Michael was able to take out Wade. 

The Dirty Thirty update: Two down, 28 more to go.

This mission wasn't without controversy. After Liza escaped, Ryan listed both Wade and Liza as targets, which upset both Nikita and Alex. This was a bit surprising, because Ryan had always seemed to be a sympathetic guy. Has the pressure of Division already corrupted his moral center?

Luckily, Nikita was able to convince Liza to stand down, because I don't think Nikita has it in her to kill a young girl. It would be like putting a bullet in Alex's head or even her own.

"Innocence" reminded me a little of one of my favorite movies, The Professional. In the movie, Mathilda (Natalie Portman) sought out the professional hit man, Leon, to train her to get revenge on her parents' killer. This episode turned the premise on its head, but there were similarities between the girls, their training, and abilities.

Overall, this was an entertaining episode that pulled in aspects of the old Division into what they are doing now. If all the take-downs of The Dirty Thirty are wild, twisted rides like this one, we are in for an outstanding season.

Fringe Review: Bishops, Blondes and Bullets

Posted on by

Must every time the phrase "The Bullet That Saved the World" is uttered be in reference to a blonde Bishop? It seems a bit unfair that the entire fate of the world weighs upon the shoulders of the Dunham line, and perhaps solely because of what was done to it at the hands of Walter Bishop, but it would be difficult at this point to make a case against it.

The Team Doubts Broyles

It was the proverbial game-changer episode, as was hinted in the set interview with Joshua Jackson in September. The season was fairly lackluster up to this point, and it was an aggressive move. Sadly, the Bishop clan is rarely torn asunder by catastrophe, but instead their resolve is recharged and it's a signal to viewers that anyone in their way better hold tight because there will be hell to pay. The first time they were faced with this situation, when we weren't looking, they had hope. This time, there is only vengeance.

To ensure the most pain was received by the death blow, there were some meaningful moments between parents and child. We learned how Etta found the bullet necklace and why she wore it. She didn't fully understand its meaning, but knew enough that if it was retained it was for a purpose far greater than she could comprehend.

Seeing Broyles was great. Considering how difficult his life must have been over the past 21 years, they aged him subtly. Was anybody else confused by the original conversation between Broyles and Windmark? Twenty one years of studying the resistance and the Observers had no idea about the original Fringe team and the members that created it? That made no sense.

Were they so certain of their success that they erased the images of their foes from two decades earlier? If so, then that arrogance might hold the key to their defeat. It turned out Broyles didn't know that Windmark knew all along he had been friends with the original Fringe team.

Wasn't it wonderful to see Broyles and the group back together again? If only Astrid could have been there. Etta also got to see, so briefly, their two worlds touch. For mere minutes the team Etta had heard of for years was together again as they spoke about the plan. What a shame that it was the last reunion she would encounter. 

Not only was it an obvious sensational ploy for Peter to buy her the necklace on the very day she died, but also for the Observer in the pawn shop to read his reasons for buying it and for Windmark to want to understand why they would out themselves for something so inconsequential.

Naturally, Etta chose the most dramatic way possible for Windmark to interpret the meaning of love; by reading her. The one thing she had spent a lifetime hiding she allowed just moments before her death. Clutching her mother’s bullet in one hand and covering her wound in the other, Etta found herself destroyed by love. 

Olivia died inside. Her eyes went cold. You could see it happen. If there is a God, the Observers had better start praying, because Olivia will do nothing to stop now. She had her daughter ripped from her hands once, and didn’t know if she was alive or dead. This time she’s certain. There will be hell to pay.

The bitch of it is it will be hard to outsmart someone who can be at death’s door one second and out of harms way the next. Olivia, and her past with cortexiphan, has to be the ticket, together with Walter’s plan.  It will be interesting to see whether Peter blames himself for Etta's death since the Observer grabbed the image of Etta from his head.

If so, it could play out the opposite of the first time Etta "died." Olivia determinedly searching for a way to bring down her daughter's killers, while Peter second-guesses his choices in fear of what he might let on since the Observers can so easily read his mind. 

The Bishop family story is tragic from beginning to end. Even if they find some peace by saving the world, the tragedy will remain.

Other Thoughts:

  • I've been wondering where Lance Reddick and Blair Brown stood the season. if the special appearance designation is any indication they won't be on many episodes.  The only positive to Etta dying is that it might free up salary and space within the scripts.
  • Etta left the plan in Broyles hands. Will it be safe with him with Windmark onto his meeting, and knowing he can probably hide his feelings?
  • If this is really a three chapter final season, I can't even stand to think what the third chapter will bring.
  • Do you think they will take a chance and go back to the re-ambered lab, or was that the last we've seen of the former Harvard University? 
WILL YOU MISS ETTA?

Haven Review: Holloway House

Posted on by

When I used to have a life, Halloween was one of my favorite holidays. With the costumes, crisp air and crunching leaves what isn't there to like? Now that I don't play with costumes, I get to live vicariously through television. "Real Estate" was an extraordinary haunted house story wrapped inside of a Halloween celebration and I loved it. Haven made me so happy!

Haven's Haunted House

The best thing about the episode was that it put all members of this extremely talented cast together for the majority of the show. When I interviewed Kate Kelton, she said this type of episode is done as a cost saving measure, because it is low on production costs. If it costs less to have them all together, then I'm all for more of these brilliant ensemble pieces. Did I mention it was directed by Jason Priestley? Apparently he enjoyed his turn as Chris Brody so much in season two that he can't stay away.

There was a lot of going on with regard to Nathan and Jordan this week. Seeing the look on Audrey's face when Nathan took Jordan's hand was like the worst Halloween nightmare come true. Just by showing up, Nathan was outed, and that house played tricks on everybody so that nobody knew who to trust. I love whodunnits where everyone becomes a suspect!

Since she was the odd woman out, Jordan was the main WHO that everyone thought done it, however. That just gave way for Nathan to grow ever closer to her. Don't get me wrong, I want he and Audrey to be the end game, but having this roadblock in the meantime is a worthy sidebar. It's better than putting Duke in the middle, because the three of them are too important to the main story to be at each other's throats.

Speaking of Duke, when he saw the gun on the floor, I expected it to fly across the floor when he bent down to pick it up in a classic haunted house trick. How easy am I? Every character had great quotes to deliver this week, and Claire was at the top of the list with a lovely one about Duke, in particular. Check out the Haven quotes to relive the best of them.

Iain Glen (Jorah on Game of Thrones) added a classy take on the Holloway house as the house itself. Once Mr. Holloway, his trouble was that he became the house. In lesser hands the speech he gave about becoming one with it and watching his family die could have been silly. Instead his presence was a powerful foe for Audrey and for Lucy as well. Audrey chose to make the same choice Lucy did in letting him rot in that house, but Dwight blew that sucker to the ground.

As the haunted house continued to get the best of our Scoobies, Nathan was clearly upset when he found Jordan at the bottom of the stairs. Whether he was meaning to or not, he's beginning to have real feelings for her. He was telling the truth when he told Audrey he trusted Jordan, and there was more to it than that. Audrey's continual rebuffing wasn't helping her case, and when he leaned in for a kiss with Jordan at the end, he sure looked engaged to me.

As she flashed back to Lucy in the house, Audrey recalled enough to finally discover who The Colorado Kid was, and found his Missing Persons report. His name was James Cogan. For a while, as they showed only his sideburns, he reminded me quite a bit of Nathan. For those of you who thought perhaps he might be Nathan's birth father, the glimpses we saw tonight sure swayed me in that general direction.

What did you think of the episode? Did you have as much fun with the entire group in one location as I did? This season just gets better and better. I can't wait for next week!
