True Detective - Haunted Houses

In flashbacks we see Hart’s temporary state as a sober and loyal husband is broken when he encounters one of the former child prostitutes (Lili Simmons) from the 1995 case and gets to know her much, much better.

With a new Superman now out on Blu-ray and DVD every now and then I’ll continue to take a look back at the hero’s more memorable moments on both the big and small screen. After Christopher Reeve‘s final Superman film but before Lois & Clark: The New Adventuresof Superman , DC offered Superman fans a low-budget syndicated series aimed at a younger audience while featuring the college adventures of Clark Kent (John Haymes Newton – who would be replaced by Gerard Christopher at the beginning of Season Two), Lana Lang (Stacy Haiduk), and Perry White’s son T.J.

Pretty Little Liars - Free Fall

Realizing the bombshell Spencer (Troian Bellisario) and the other Liars are about to drop on Aria (Lucy Hale), Ezra (Ian Harding) decides to defuse the situation by preemptively dropping one of his own by alerting his girlfriend, Emily (Shay Mitchell), and Hanna (Ashley Benson) to their friend’s pill problem and increasingly erratic behavior. Although Aria dismisses what she takes for her friend’s drugged-out rantings, Ezra’s slip of the tongue (and his pressure to further expose her drug use) makes Aria begin to second-guess her unflinching support of the man she loves.
