Deutsche Version | CW 41 | CW 42-43 Bones 5×04 The Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood I really enjoyed this episode with all its entanglements in suburbia and especially the bantering between Bones/anthropology and Sweets/psychology regarding the life there. Supernatural 5×05 Fallen Idols Kripke warned the viewers not to judge to quickly about the appearance…
I was getting in the mood and have started watching MacGyver again, starting with the first season from 1985/86. And I love to see so many known guest actors in it: Robin Curtis (Star Trek 3 & 4), Peter Jurassik (Babylon 5, Sliders), Nana Visitor (Star Trek DS9), Robert Englund (Nightmare on Elm Street, V),…
