#TheRoundUp by Enzer - No. 44


HOT ON TV


How To Get Away With Murder – I’m sold!

This compelling series written by Peter Nowalk and airing on ABC has kept me glued to my seat from minute one of episode one of season one. 

The storylines continuously blow my mind such that it really is difficult to describe how fantastic the show is in words (it’s all oohs and aahs, I guess). 

They (the storylines) drown one in a dramatic mess that is as addictive as the strongest drug out there – I’m literally shaking with excitement right now!

Unfortunately the actors and actresses that were hired aren’t at par with what I’ve mentioned above. 

However, I still can’t think of other actors who could fill the current cast’s shoes because they (as an ensemble) are as compatible as tongue and saliva. 

I am currently into the third season which has undoubtedly set the bar as high as ever. The cliffhangers are out of this world and I can’t wait to find out what the upcoming season finale has in store. 

Surely, How To Get Away With Murder gives viewers more than enough reasons to ‘Thank God It’s Thursday.’ *wink*



HOTTER:

Miss Universe is coming up on the 30th of January and will air live from The Philippines. It’s never a bad idea to tune into a beauty pageant to watch beautiful ladies showcase their many talents so I’ll definitely not be missing that event. The team behind the telecast do not usually disappoint when it comes to delivering world class productions therefore I am expecting a good show.




THROWBACK:

The 2017 People’s Choice Awards aired live on CBS earlier this month and were hosted by Joel McHale. The show was not a disappointment at all. All the segments were entertaining and the host wasn’t so bad. I was actually glad he hosted the show because he is hella funny. 

Fifth Harmony performed live on TV for the first time without Camila Cabello and messed up big time. Blake Shelton also performed and a host of well-known faces did a good job at presenting awards. I’m definitely not missing the show next year as well.

I also got to watch the 2016 Golden Globes Awards which also aired on NBC earlier this month. Jimmy Fallon hosted the ceremony that featured numerous young people as presenters. Overall, the show was well produced and is definitely a program I’d watch again.

Another telecast that I couldn’t afford to miss was the annual Miss World Pageant which was broadcast live from Maryland, USA. The lively event which attracts millions of viewers and whose parent company generates millions of dollars for charity continues to lack at delivering a good television show. The layout of the stage didn’t really make sense to me and the hosts of the night made numerous silly mistakes. I did however like the selected finalists. It was clear that the bar had been raised such that missing out on the next edition would be a big mistake.



Shameless, airing on Showtime recently concluded its 7th season. Kudos to the writing team for such an incredible plot because season 7 of the show became a staple I couldn’t live without. I pray and hope that it is not downhill from here because to be honest Shameless was one of the few shows worth the watch on a weekly basis during the fall TV season.










SPEAK OUT


#Celebs
Enzer’s Worlds’ (E.W.) Top Actors for the 4th E.W. Year are Emma Roberts & Adam Driver.

Emma Roberts stars as Chanel Oberlin in Fox’s Scream Queens and is killing it. Her delivery is exceptional and her work on Scream Queens has done justice in showcasing her acting skills. She is one of the many reasons I tune in each week as I continuously struggle to understand why she is so underrated. Well, I guess that changed when the E.W. Board crowned her the best actress of the past E.W. Year, right?

Adam Driver is also another underrated actor who outshone all the male actors in the past E.W. Year. He does a stellar job at portraying Adam Sackler on HBO’s Girls (he has been active on the show since its inception) and continues to impress in other productions as well. One of the reasons he stands out is because of the way in which he connects with his roles. He is so engaged and well-rehearsed such that finding a flaw is almost impossible. I’d definitely not pass a chance to watch him perform on a theatre stage.

Find out which actor and actress will win recognitions during the upcoming 5th Annual E.W. Recognitions later this year.

A well-known celebrity that deserves a special mention in this edition of #TheRoundUp for all his uniquely entertaining YouTube videos is Adam Saleh. He is E.W.’s Outstanding YouTube Star for the 4th E.W. Year whose life has become an internet must watch reality show. Most YouTube stars are good at what they do but Adam (during the previous E.W. Year) presented the most creative, entertaining and well edited videos. Another huge advantage was the fact that he has an exciting life that most just can’t afford to miss. He has what most would call the ‘X-Factor.’

If you’re a huge fan of Fifth Harmony then you’ve probably heard or read about one of their group members quitting. Camila Cabello (she’s E.W.’s Top Celebrity for the Rest of the Americas for the 4th E.W. Year) is probably better off singing solo. The success of two of her hit singles (I Know What You Did Last Summer & Bad Things) are testament to how effective she is in the music business and how much being a part of Fifth Harmony was pulling her back. However, I still feel that she should have continued to hold on to Fifth Harmony because of how huge they are at the moment. Staying on for one more album, as suggested by the other girls, wasn’t such a bad idea for her career - hey, at least she’s lucky to have people that care about her in the industry. Could there be more to the story?
