I love Phoebe as a character because she’s sassy, childlike and tough and just when you think you’ve got her all figured out she throws out a one-liner that will either make you laugh or leave you with a mountain of questions. Here are my favourite Phoebe quotes:

5) “A promise between friends means never having to give a reason.” (Phoebe can be rather profound when she wants to be and quite the manipulator – poor Joey!)

Phoebe: “I don’t even have a pla.” (Yep. There has been so many days like this.) Continue reading “My Favourite Five: Phoebe Quotes”

Binge Watching Favourites: Cover Affairs S1 Ep1 – Pilot (extended version)

Covert Affairs is a sassy, well developed, action-packed spy drama. It has the intrigue and intensity of Alias and the quick wit and friendly banter of Bones (with sarcasm thrown into the mix too). Add to that characters that draw you in and I’m hooked!

Here’s my run down of the pilot episode: Continue reading “Binge Watching Favourites: Cover Affairs S1 Ep1 – Pilot (extended version)”

MV5BMTY4MzM3NDE2Nl5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwNDU2OTkxMDE@._V1_SX640_SY720_If you haven’t heard of New Zealand actor Emmett Skilton then you probably have yet to discover the brilliance of the kiwi comedy-drama series The Almighty Johnsons. If this is the case, find it on Netflix, buy the DVDs, hell – illegally download it if you must!, however you can get your hands on it – it’ll be well worth your while! Emmett, who plays youngest brother Axl Johnson in the series, speaks all things TAJ and more below.

Please note: There are some slight spoilers from the series in this interview!

Firstly, you’ve been in Los Angeles for quite a while now. What have you been up to?

Sure have. I originally came here for The Almighty Johnsons’s SYFY promotion last year and since then I have worked on various projects, a favourite being a feature film called Bella, being released later this year/early next year. And I have, of course, been exploring this giant country as best I can – Central Park in New York in the snow is a definite favourite so far!
