Tess Gerritson's crimefighting duo reaches the end of the line of their television capers, with the impeccable Dr. Maura Isles (SASHA ALEXANDER) dealing with a head trauma injury that seems to have activated a genetic brain disorder that manifests in dizzy spells and forgetfulness. For the woman who is used to always being the smartest person in the room, this is a little more than unsettling, and several of the early episodes follow Maura's personal path as she pursues treatment options. Meanwhile, Detective Jane Rizzoli (ANGIE HARMON) is offered an opportunity to pursue a career with the FBI.

The boys play the what would you do game and things get pretty personal.

Thanks for watching! Any view that we get is a shining moment for us but let us know how this episode made you feel because we are here to keep you entertained.

Taking place in the Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky, the base story of the Outsiders centers around the Farrell clan who have lived isolated on top of their mountain for generations.  Struggling to keep an uneasy truce with the townspeople below and maintain their way of life, they also struggle within themselves for power within their clan, and are put to the test when their very way of life is threatened from the outside.

In the first season we learned there is a Big Coal company that has bought rights to mine the coal rich land. But to do so, they must enlist the help of the Sherriff T. Wade Houghton (Thomas M. Wright) and the law enforcement of Blackburg to remove the Farrell’s and any others that may reside up on the mountain by whatever means possible. At the same time, the struggle for power within the clan drives some to commit murder, ending with a huge confrontation between the authorities and the clans that ended in massive bloodshed.

AIAIAIAII! POWER RANGERS! WHERE ARE THOSE POWER RANGER? ... ... I ask for the Power Rangers and I get these two...

IT'S MORPHIN' TIME!

The boys share their past nightmares while continuing to travel with Mario in space.

Amanda Waller has released the captive Justice League after Batman learns what the Suicide Squad is up against -- Maxwell Lord and the O.S.S. No, they're not the O.S.S. of DC Comics days of yore. I just coined the term to refer to them as the Original Suicide Squad, a team Waller put together in the past and then locked away: Rustam, Doctor Polaris, Johnny Sorrow, Emerald Empress, and the main man himself, Lobo. All of them are under the control of Max Lord, who has taken advantage of their desire for revenge against Amanda Waller so that he can gain control of something that will finally give him what he's always wanted: absolute control.

Don't say it.

Comedian Gabriel Iglesias, affectionately known as 'Fluffy', has a comedy special on NETFLIX called "I'm Sorry for What I Said When I Was Hungry" and, among other things, he dished out his thoughts on the Marvel vs DC debate.

During the special he discusses his experience drinking a chocolate cake shake, an injured audience member, his meeting with Arnold Shwarzenegger and the return of the 'racial gift basket'. In the segment (from his official YouTube channel), he recalls a conversation between himself and one of his kids' friends who claimed DC was better than Marvel.

Caution: Married men may squirm a bit when he discusses Green Lantern's power!

The boys jump back into the Blind Booth to take on Mario Bros 2 and this time you can watch them on Face Cam as requested.

We hope you enjoy.

I saw this reported earlier in the week, and wanted to provide some perspective and commentary on it.

Marvel Comics has announced plans to overship all of its January 2017 titles by 10% for free to retailers. This will mean for every ten copies of a January Marvel book bought by retailers, they'll receive an additional copy; and furthermore, Marvel will be rounding up the percentages, meaning if less than ten copies of a book is ordered, a free copy will still be send along with the paid titles.

That gives retailers extra copies of books to for a profit of full cover price per issue (minus the shipping charges from the distributor). So will Marvel's sales be 10% higher in Diamond Comics Distributors' sales figures for January 2017?

WWE announced their latest crossover cartoon with The Jetsons & WWE: Robo-Wrestlemania, available on Tuesday, February 28, 2017 on Digital HD and on Tuesday, March 14, 2017 on DVD.

From the trailer, it looks like Big Show ends up cryogenically frozen, and when he wakes up 100 years in the future, he decides to take over the world with an army of robot wrestlers at his command; another Big Show heel turn.  So the Jetsons head back to 2016 to bring superstars to stop him, including Alicia Fox, Sheamus, Seth Rollins, the Usos, and Roman Reigns.  

Here is the trailer..

The term "Women in Refrigerators" was coined by comic book writer Gail Simone in reference to a Ron Marz written issue of Green Lantern where Kyle Raynor found his girlfriend dead and literally stuffed into his refrigerator.

Often referenced when a female character dies in order to motivate the male protagonist, 'fridging' has become a commonly used expression.

Yesterday, USA Today released a new image from the upcoming Justice League movie, directed by Zack Snyder. The image depicts the league exiting the "Flying Fox", a ship used to transport the league from one place to another. What's IN the picture isn't very newsworthy, as we see the team we expect exiting a ship.

Welcome back to Critical Blast’s weekly look at what new comics you should check out each week.   Just a warning, I make these picks pretty much a week BEFORE I actually get to read any of these comics, so if something is a stinker, I take no blame on that.  Let's get to it!

Comics shipping this week

Back in November, I had posted the first teaser trailer for Cars 3, which seemed to show Lightning McQueen getting smashed up pretty good in a racing accident.  

Disney-Pixar has released a new trailer, that continues the story from there:

I actually saw this first announced by Stephen Amell on his Facebook, but Hollywood Reporter better coverage:

Ahead of its day before press at the Television Critics Association's winter press tour, The CW handed out early renewals to seven veteran series.

Returning for the 2017-18 broadcast season are all four DC Comics shows — The Flash, Arrow, Supergirl and Legends of Tomorrow — as well as dramedies Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Jane the Virgin, alongside its longest-running original, Supernatural.

Missing from the list are The 100, iZombie and The Vampire Diaries spinoff The Originals, all of which have yet to debut their current seasons. (Reign will end with its upcoming fourth season and The Vampire Diaries also will sign off later this year.)

How many times can Kevin die in one episode? Better yet... How many times can Kevin die on the first level?

Strap in for another season of action, adventure, and LEGO bricks with the NEXO Knights! The evil jester, Jestro, is back, and he's got the living Book of Monsters with him! They continue they're hunt for the other books of evil that were scattered from their place of safe keeping when Merlock's tower exploded, and as they find them they get even more powerful.

Fortunately the NEXO Knights are better trained than they were in their first season, and their characters -- while still unique to each of them -- are less two-dimensional than they were when we first met them. They're going to need to employ all their monster fighting training and new downloaded abilities from Merlock 2.0 if they're going to save the day!

My Two Bits: The Movies of the 2016

It’s January.  Which means it’s time for that time-honored tradition of internet columnists spending the next several weeks re-hashing 2016.  I had actually intended for this to be my last column of 2016, but it got pushed back, so instead, I will join the navel gazers.  Promise next week I will move on talk about the exciting world of the future: 2017.

Jestro is back, and he's still got the Book of Monsters with him! It's up to Aaron, Macy, Lance, Clay, and Axl to defend the kingdom with their skill and bravery -- and some new Nexo powers downloaded from the digital wizard, Merlock 2.0!

The boys finally take on Bowser and I believe we now have a clear understanding as to why he does what he does. 

What do you think, why is Bowser such a punk?
