I loved the French version of The Returned, so odd and moody, and the only review of this latest translation is that in its frame by frame recreation it loses that one thing, so just watch the original (pictured above).

Tuesday – Newlyweds, Season Premiere (Brav, 10pm), Wild Alaska, Series Premiere (BBCA, 10pm)

While reality has maybe stooped to a new low with Sex Box where couples have sex in a box, apparently as some sort of therapy, there are a few new scripted shows to check out.

So things are finally starting to come in and I’ll be giving a look to the latest Marvel spin off for some 40’s secret agent, some campy music biz, and perhaps a little 90’s do over.
