Lindsay Lohan has a publicity rights law suit against the game publisher of the infamous ‘Grand Theft Auto’ and they are conceding nothing to her. The maker of the game, Take Two interactive, has put forth a motion that she has a habit of pushing ‘publicity rights claims’. Such as, suing E-Trade for having a commercial that has a ‘milkaholic’ baby named Lindsay, and the rapper Pitbull for the song verse, “ I’m tiptoein’, to keep flowin’, I got it locked up, like Lindsay Lohan”. Lohan is suing Take-Two and its subsidiary Rock Star Games over characters in the ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ games that she says ‘resemble her’. Take-Two attorneys put forth a motion to not only dismiss the case, but also to sanction Lohan and her attorneys, calling the law suit ‘legally meritless’ that is just a grab for publicity. They specifically point to her loss in the Pitbull case that won because of a New York statute that grants complete protection, for all works of art, against publicity claims, claiming that the game falls under the same protection as any other form of art.

Grady Memorial hospital has Beth and Carol, and the clan wants them back. Especially Daryl, he was with Beth when she got taken by them and he was with Carol when she got taken by them and he is very unhappy about it. It’s a different world now and to put it in Daryl’s own words that he uttered while he and Carol stood by the office window when they were looking for clues as to where Beth had been taken, “F*** the way it was”. It’s a matter of survival now; sometimes you just have to fight for your freedom and/or life. Norman Reedus himself described the episode as devastating. He has said that he cried before the filming of it so that he would not break down on camera because of the emotional nature of the final few scenes. This, of course, would lead us to believe that the show is, yet again, going to kill off a major character. Although we won’t know that until we watch it, and it would stand to reason that there is going to be a major cliffhanger, which we will not see the outcome of until February, 2015. They are setting us up to believe that it is going to be a doozy, and I for one will be upset if it’s not. We will have to wait two and a half months for the next installment of this series and it would be nice to have something to chew on while we wait. Even if it’s some serious anticipation about what is going to happen next.

Well, it looks like our friends that walk among the dead are preparing for war, but they are going up against a group that they know nothing about. They have only the word of Noah to go by and how do they know that he is telling the truth, how do they know that he is actually and that she helped him escape. It’s not like Rick to trust with so little information. Granted, the audience knows these things to be true, but Rick has never been one to trust anyone that easily, isn’t he the one that came up with the questions, the questions that they ask everyone that they meet. You know them, “How many walkers have you killed” and “How many people have you killed”? It’s his suspicious nature that has kept them all alive; it’s his suspicious nature that alerted him to the ‘not necessarily friendly nature of He once trusted the Governor, and look what happened there. Well, he did put Noah out front, he is the one that shot the shot that attracted them in the first place, maybe that was a test, if not a test of his loyalty to them, at least a test of his loyalty to getting Beth out of there because he feels that he owes her something for helping him. Rick is ready to kill, he suggests that Daryl takes a guard out by slitting his throat, and it doesn’t give him a moment’s pause. He seems to have accepted death as a part of everything that happens, if it weren’t for the objections of the others, including Daryl and especially Tyreese, he would have had absolutely no problem making that a part of his plan. A plan that Tyreese is not happy with, once Rick spells it out for them. It has the potential for too many bullets flying and has the possibility for too much death, this is a man that is sick to death of death, and he suggests another way. Kidnap two of them, make an even trade and everybody goes home. Of course the plan doesn’t go exactly as planned and Daryl ends up in a knock down drag out with one of Grady’s cops right in the middle of a burned out mess of charred walkers that are actually melted to the asphalt and is forced to use a walker’s head, with two fingers through the eye sockets, to bash him over the head. Rick puts an end to the fight and is again ready to kill without compunction, but Daryl stops him suggesting that having three cops to trade is better than two. Once they get settled with their hostages, their hostages want to talk. It seems that they aren’t too fond of Dawn either and believe that she is running the place into the ground. One of them, whose name is Bob, tells Rick all about Dawn and that she will make the trade because she isn’t a tyrant, just someone trying to make things work. He also gains some sympathy from Sasha, probably because his name is Bob, and convinces her that one of the walkers out on the tarmac that is melted to the asphalt is a friend of his and he wants to see him put out of his misery. She takes him to the window for clear identification and as she is aiming he slams her from behind up against the window knocking her out to make good his escape. Maybe Bob’s not as good a guy as they thought. The group left at the church barricade themselves in and Gabriel, the priest, goes crazy trying to clean the Carl wants him to choose a weapon and learn how to defend himself, but he can’t fathom the violence, it’s all foreign to him. Even the always sensible Michone can’t make him understand that killing, or at least defending yourself, is a realistic part of life now. He picks a machete and locks himself in the back room. Then he uses it to pry the floor boards away, crawls out under the floor and runs away. Even when he is faced with a almost do-or-die situation he can’t bring himself to kill a walker because his religion overwhelms his mind and he chooses once again to run away. The group with the fire truck is caught up in a dilemma, Eugene is down for the count and can’t be moved, Abraham is in a psychological stupor and refuses to even take a drink, and they are almost out of water, not to mention not having any food. Tara, Rosita and Glenn set out to find water and while out on their little hunting expedition Glenn lets Rosita know that since Washington is no longer an option that she is welcome where ever they end up. Of course, they find water and even manage to catch some fish. Back at the fire truck Maggie finally gets Abraham to talk, she almost shot him when there was a confrontation between him a Rosita and is that what he wanted, you talk about a man that is Too bad Maggie’s not a psychologist, maybe she could figure him out. At least everything turned out alright, they have some water, a little food, and Eugene even wakes up. Oh yeah, Tara found a yo-yo. With all this fighting to survive going on everywhere else it’s hard to believe that someone would be working at a clean well equipped hospital, Okay, maybe not so well equipped, but a hospital none the less. Beth is just doing everything that she can to help keep her friend, Carol, alive, even stand up to a well armed police officer about how much energy he uses to power his DVD. And Dawn, stating that Beth is stronger than she had imagined actually gives her a key to the medicine locker. Really, there has got to be an ulterior motive behind that, she doesn’t even trust her fellow cohorts with that key. Beth takes it, she doesn’t care why, she just wants to help her friend. She drills the doctor for diagnosis information and bribes an orderly with a few strawberries to fake a seizure so that she can get the medicine that she needs. The information that we gained from this episode might just be to set us up for the midseason finally, which will certainly leave us with a huge cliffhanger that we will have to wait months for in order to realize, but that remains to be seen. Only one episode left to watch in 2014, hope it’s a good one. Stream This Episode Now: click here

After ten seasons of killing monsters, becoming demons, and fighting angels, who in their right mind says, “Hey, let’s make a musical”. Monsters do not make a good musical, demons do not make a good musical, and not even angels make a good musical. If you want a good musical, you do it with cats or maybe Dorothy and her little dog too, but Supernatural things do not make a good musical. And if that were not bad enough they actually invoke the name Barbara Streisand. Ugh, ugh, and ugh. This show has been many things for many years and how many times have we seen idiosyncrasies of ourselves come out in the characters. At any given moment we could feel empathy with one or more of them and we have almost fallen in love with their lives. They eat, drink, hustle, fornicate and generally kick ass all the time (Okay, mostly Dean). No one takes advantage of them, no one gets the better of them, and they almost always come out on top. Face it, who else can kill a god with a tree limb? This show has also shown us that, if monsters really do exist, maybe they’re not all bad. Sam was once in love with a werewolf and didn’t we once see a vampire that was sympathetic to humans. It has never been afraid to turn ordinary lore on its head, we have seen demons that do nice things and we have even seen angels that were total dicks, but not once in all the years that it has been running have we ever seen anyone sing anything about the magnificence of it all. Or maybe it was just time to try something different, but a musical, really. Well, at least there aren’t any pajama boys dancing around in tights. A group of well mannered, clean cut school girls actually do a good job on a school play. The director, also the potential victim of the story, is very dedicated. Even when she realizes end production could mean the end of her, she continues. She even gets further involved by taking an acting part. Giving new meaning to the phrase ‘The show must go on’. Actually, the monster of the story fits right in line with the theme, Calliope, a muse that can manifest creatures from a story that she is tuned into. She calls forth the scarecrow to do her dirty work and protect the author until the story has been realized, and then she can feast, on the author. And she is not your average everyday monster, she is a god. Of course it’s not the first time Sam and Dean have had to tangle with a god, and they certainly aren’t going to take any kind of pity on this one. Although, her cleavage would give Dean pause, so it’s probably a good thing that Sam does the killing. The author of the play is inspired by the books written by Carver Edland, a.k.a. Chuck Shirley, who is a profit of the word of God and wrote the “Supernatural” series that will someday be known as the Winchester gospel, and who is supposed to be dead. A profit of the word of God is the only person that can read and/or write the word of God and there is only supposed to be one at any given time. Do you remember Kevin, the Asian college student that had his life go straight to hell (literally) when he was tapped to read the tablets, one tablet that told about the angels and how to close the gates of heaven and one tablet that told about the demons and how to close the gates of hell. Kevin should never have been tapped if Chuck was still alive. Well, Chuck shows up at the end with a one liner, “Not bad”, and gives rise to the question of what happened to him if not death. Maybe he was put into hiding by someone high up or maybe he did die and was brought back to life or maybe…… Who knows, maybe it’s just some foreshadowing for a future storyline. All in all you could say that this story wasn’t a total bust. Our heroes did inevitably kill the monster of the story and save the day. And their identities are secure because no one believed that they are the real Sam and Dean, mainly because they look too old. Also the singing was done very tastefully especially the closer, “Carry on My Wayward Son”. If it could be summed up in one word that word would probably be ‘Charming’. Although, that is the absolute best that this reviewer can muster because the best line in the whole story was expressed by Dean Winchester himself when he said, “There is no singing in Supernatural".
