Single Ladies

After 30 years of nearly oblivion, TNT is reviving the grandfather of all plutocracy soap-dramas, Dallas. A little bit rebranded but still not losing its luster, this grand soap-opera appears to us in the new, contemporary glossiness, featuring all good old actors, like 80-year-old Larry Hagman who still plays incorrigible old buzzard J.R. Ewing, Patrick Duffy is still Bobby Ewing while Linda Gray is Sue Ellen Ewing. After the very first episode of renewed in 2012 Dallas you will find out, that the original characters are perfectly combined with the next generation of oil tycoons (as well as the new generations of actors playing them). Meet Jesse Metcalfe, who is Christopher, Bobby Ewing's adopted son who tries to bring the family business into the new modern route of green energy industry. Jordana Brewster, who may be familiar to you as Mia Toretto from Fast Five, now is Elena Ramos, John Ross's new girlfriend and ex-fiancee of Christopher. Who is John Ross? He is John Ross Ewing III (played by Josh Henderson) who tries to be a good son of his father by strict following all the family business traditions of oil drilling. This is the very short glance on Dallas 2012 turbulences, and you have to discover the rest 99.99% all by yourself.

When "The Good Wife" premiered in the fall of 2009, insiders whispered that Alicia Florrick, the good wife, was modeled after Silda Spitzer, the remarkably resilient former spouse of Elliott Spitzer, former New York prosecutor who ended-up himself prosecuted on charges of using public funds to support his prostitute habit. In the first few episodes, Alicia stood mute and shell-shocked as her politician husband admitted to "indiscretions," was tried and sent to jail. With only mild irony, the good wife emerges as the amazing woman as soon as hubby gets fitted for his orange jumpsuit. Played with tremendous grace, style, and power by Julianna Marguiles, Alicia Florrick, a la Silda Spitzer, returns to her old law practice. A little out of practice after thirteen years as wife and mother, she wobbles before she restores her professional standing. As "The Good Wife" evolved, it outgrew its need for "ripped from the headlines" comparisons. Episode by episode, Marguiles quickened, toughened, and deepend Alicia's character. Her imprisoned spouse becomes simply a footnote or sidebar as Alicia struggles to keep her family intact and build her career in a law firm riddled with scheming, scandal, and intrigue.

It was good while it lasted. Launched with much fanfare and intense audience interest, "FlashForward" brilliantly recreated the mysterious, fascinating, are-they-prophetic? two minutes and seventeen seconds on October 6, 2009, when almost everyone on Earth lost consciousness of their ordinary surroundings and caught glimpses of their lives on April 29, 2010. An ambitious attempt at transposing Robert J. Sawyer's "high-concept" novel from the printed page to the small screen, "FlashForward" focused on the team of FBI investigators charged with determining what had happened. One of the FBI agents enjoyed the special privilege of seeing his team crack the case in his vision of the future; all he has to do is recreate the six months of investigative work that yield the break-through. Meanwhile, the principal characters attempt to cope with the consequences of their visions for their lives in the present, because they have seen broken marriages, lives lost, and great portrayals on their horizons. Most viewers and critics sadly agreed "FlashForward" unfortunately juxtaposed a brilliant high-tech crime drama on some pathetically ordinary people and lives.
