When I found out this series was burning off its’ final episodes I wasn’t planning on watching them. But then I received a few comments praising its’ virtues, so I tried it out. And I enjoyed what I saw so I kept watching it and now I actually care what happens to Matt […]

Well, I watched the latest Standoff episode, No Strings, didn’t even fast forward through the parts with the redhead in it. And I realized this is an intense, exciting drama, not just a relationship show. That’s the trouble I had with it when it first started. It felt like they were jumping […]
I got home early from work today and lo! and behold there was a comment about my highlights for tonite about Standoff. This person invited me to watch the show because Gina Torres has an upcoming episode centered around her. Well I told you I like her and I didn’t want to take […]
