PLOT: Nineteen years after Kristina Snow met the monster - crank - her children are reeling from the consequences of her decisions. Instead of one big, happy family, they are a desperate tangle of scattered lives united by anger, doubt, and fear.

Sex, drugs, alcohol, abuse - there is more of Kristina in her children than they would ever like to believe. But when the thread that ties them together brings them face-to-face, they'll discover something powerful in each other and in themselves - the trust, the hope, the courage to begin to break the cycle.

New TV Shows that I love...

I love this show. Christina Applegate, Maya Rudolph and Will Arnett are freaking funny. Those three make me laugh out loud the entire show. I also love that Maya's character Ava is dating Jason Lee. I love him too he was so funny on My Name is Earl. I miss that show.

Awesome show! How can you not like a show about zombies. And they have a really cool story line to go along with the zombie attacks. I love the all the different characters that are part of the show.

I love this show. I love the fact that they have a douchebag jar. Schmidt seems to be a repeat offender that has to put money in the douchebag jar. Jess is so funny and weird. I really like the other two boys that live with Jess and Schmidt. Funny show.

I loved Tim Allen on Home Improvement and this show is no exception. It's funny as heck and he comes up with some great one liners. I like his wife and daughters on the show. His boss is pretty funny too. His wife sometimes looks as though she is going to bust out laughing at times when he drops some of the funniest one liners. I love it!

Didn't not expect to like this show but it's awesome. I love two of the main characters Anson Mount and Common. They both do an amazing job. I also love Dominique McElligott who plays Lily Bell. She is beautiful. I am already ready for season 2.

This one is on HBO which we no longer get but hopefully we can find a way to watch it. I did miss a few episodes but I hope to catch up on them before season 2 starts. One of my favorite characters on the show was Daenerys Targaryen. I called her the dragon girl. She was very cool looking and you find out very powerful.
