Warren Cole: Performer of the Month on 'The Following'

a few episodes into 'the following' the character roderick showed up on the scene into the cult. a cold calculating sadist arrived. perhaps more sadistic than cult leader joe caroll. for a few weeks i watched driving myself crazy knowing i had seen this actor before. then it dawned on me he was wes mitchell from the short lived, dammit, 'common law' from 2012. damn! what a transformation. wes was a sweet guy in 'common law'. a bit too fastidious for his own good but a damn good guy. then the 180 to roderick on 'the following'. i need no more proof of what a damn good actor he is. his transformation was not physical. it was internal. and then it showed externally. damn. i've used the word damn a lot here. why? because it damn well fits.

What I'm Watching

the scorecard continues

'scandal'

the fastest freshest show on network tv. in it's sophmore season it holds up to it's much too abbreviated freshman run. the cast is terrific. the writing is crisp. and it's lead kerri washington is just great. and she wears clothes better than anyone on tv currently. sorry julianna. if you are not watching thhis show you are missing a high velocity drama.

obviously renewed.

season 2: A+

'the following'

kevin bacon heads the cast of this serial killer drama. he, natalie zea and the rest of the cast keeps us spellbound week after week as it tosses and turns through our minds. gruesome? who cares. it's that damn good.

it's been renewed.

season 1: A

'bates motel'

norma and norma. god help us all and anyone who visits this hotel. i won't check in but i am damn sure going to keep watching.

vera farmiga, i love this actress, and freddie highmore shine as the creepiest mother and son on tv. i'm loving it.

thankfully it's been renewed

season 1: b+
