  MILLENNIUM-2-GEHENNA   CATHERINE:   YES, BUT, FRANK WENT BACK TO WORK BECAUSE HE HAD TO. IT'S WHO HE IS. SOMETIMES I THINK OF FRANK AS THE CATCHER IN THE RYE - STANDING AT THE EDGE OF THE CLIFF TRYING TO SAVE THE WORLD - BUT HE CAN'T CHANGE ANYTHING. ALL HE CAN DO IS CATCH THESE HORRIBLE MEN BEFORE THEY KILL AGAIN. (PAUSE AS BLETCHER SMILES) AND THAT'S WHY I CAN NEVER LET HIM THINK THAT JORDAN AND I AREN'T PERFECTLY SAFE IN THIS PERFECT HOUSE AND PERFECT WORLD THAT HE'S TRIED TO GIVE US. (SHORT PAUSE) BECAUSE I KNOW, IF HE EVER THOUGHT DIFFERENTLY - NEXT TIME HE'D NEVER BE ABLE TO LEAVE.   BLETCHER:   YEAH, HE TALKED ABOUT THAT. ABOUT BEING ABLE TO SEE INTO THE DARKNESS. THAT HE'D DEVELOPED A KIND OF, UH, FACILITY TO SEE WHAT A KILLER SEES.     Much can be found about this series and this episode, I’m sure, on line but few if any books about it (maybe two or three plus it is one that was novelized!). As the PILOT had to have catches to ...

  DARK SHADOWS 494 “I don’t think there’s anything like them in this world.”   Grayson. The narration tells us it was a quiet day. Adam’s scars look, once more, lighter and less severe. Willie brings food to Adam but Willie runs out. Julia vs Willie with Julia threatening him. He mentions that he was better off at Windcliff but she counters with the fact that if he goes back there, he will be there for the rest of his life, with a report about how he can never get better. He says that is not true.     Julia will go prepare more food since Adam threw the food on the ground. Adam takes Willie’s button and Willie realizes Adam likes shiny things.     Willie moves the seventh (I think) brick down on the wall and opens (at one moment using his middle finger! On the sixth) the secret panel to get the chest of jewels. He shows them to a fascinated Adam and tells him that these belonged, once, to a lady named Josette. Suddenly, a bright light goes...

  INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY and PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS season one eps 1 to 3   Okay, had no desire to watch either of these. An aged movie series with an aged movie star who might be flouting his aging? Action movie that can’t be as good as the second INDIANA movie (yeah, that’s right TEMPLE OF DOOM is my favorite) and as each subsequent movie came out, I found myself disappointed in all of the others. So, no, thank you.   A series based on a book I couldn’t finish (sorry, I love the premise of the books of PERCY JACKSON and for that matter, TWILIGHT and HARRY POTTER, too but all three of those book series have prose and text that…leave me cold; love the premises and the characters but the actual writing of the three writers involved….no, just does not grip me; yet maybe Anthony Horowitz spoiled me so much that he’s ruined me for all other fiction books)? Nope.   PERCY had two movies that I enjoyed mostly with a good cast.   ...
