Twister Sister & Saving Grace

[Cherry_pez]

Saving Grace started last night and Rae you would have loved it. Mom was in bed early, not realizing it was the season premier. Anyway there are a couple of new shows soming out that seem interesting. The Sarah Connor Chrionicles...a spin off show that takes place two years after Terminator II. The premise is that Sarah stops running from the robots and she and John start fighting them. I believe that premiers the 12th & 13th of Jan. I think. The other is Twister Sister which is about two sister who storm chase. They do in real life and I have seen them on the Discovery channel. When does Idol start?

Ooh, I've seen the Sarah Connor Chronicles pilot a few months ago. (Got leaked.) It's not great, but it's good. I'm interested to see where it's going. It also sorta pretends T3 never happened. It mucks up the whole terminator lore, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Smallville also abandoned the official Supermanstory and that turned out okay. (Not that I would recommend *that* show to anyone but the extremely geeky. Everything superhero makes me burn with desire. For action, I mean. Superhero-action, I mean. You know what I mean! Geez, get your mind out of the gutter, lady!)

Here is what they have about it on TNT web site:

Academy Award?-winning actress Holly Hunter (The Piano) takes on the role of a cynical police detective facing a personal crisis of divine proportions in the provocative new drama series SAVING GRACE, premiering this July on TNT.

In her television series debut, Hunter stars as Grace Hanadarko, a tormented, fast-living Oklahoma City police detective who, despite being at the top of her field, takes self-destruction to new heights. After seeing tremendous tragedy in her life, both professionally and personally, Grace lives life hard and fast. She drinks too much, sleeps with the wrong men and defies authority. Grace has a tender side with her 22 nieces and nephews, but that is a side that most of the world doesn?t get to see. It all catches up with her one night when, as she?s driving too fast after too many drinks, she hits a man who is walking along the road. In an uncharacteristic moment, Grace asks for help, and she gets it ? in the form an unconventional angel named Earl (Leon Rippy, Deadwood). Earl tells Grace that she is in trouble and running out of chances, but he wants to help lead her back to the right path. The journey, for both of them, will not be an easy one.

Creator Nancy Miller says of Hunter, ?Holly can break your heart and make you laugh in the same moment. She?s astonishing. Grace is a complex character, deeply troubled but searching for the good, with a heart full of love and pain, and a surprising tenderness when you least expect it.?

In addition to Rippy, the cast also includes Kenneth Johnson (The Shield) as Grace?s partner; Gregory Norman Cruz (Criminal Minds) as detective Bobby Stillwater; Bailey Chase (Las Vegas) as detective Butch Ada; Bokeem Woodbine (The Big Hit) as a death row inmate who figures into Grace?s struggle and Laura San Giacomo (Just Shoot Me) as the criminalist who, despite having strong religious beliefs, is the only one in Grace?s life who does not judge her.


Soooooo...you can actually go to their web site and watch last seasons episodes. It comes on Monday nights at 10 PM, which is perfect for me.

I hope the twister sister show doesn't create a bunch of chasers...I worry that it might mess up our fun..LOL

[Cherry_pez]

Maybe we will run into them and if they cause too much congestion on the highway to better tornadoes...well we will just kick their asses.

[cherrysis]

Yeah and if Henk comes, we can start our very own reality TV show [img]wink.gif[/img]

[cherrysis]

Oh and Saving Grace sounds very interesting so I will look into it!

[Cherry_pez]

I actually think you will like her character. I do.

[cherrysis]

Yes he does...that's why we love him!!!
Psst...I love Smallville.


I am not sure I have room in my day to add another show...what is Saving Grace about? I could definitely get into the storm chasing sisters though.
