One...

The above picture indicates who was left after the previous episode. And it changed...drastically.

It picks up from the previous episode where Giles was tied up and held hostage, and smoke got into the living room of Rue Manor. Melina was missing. At first I thought it was pot smoke. Someone was probably smoking pot somewhere in the building. Hence it was probably pot smoke.

The first place the remaining guests looked for clues were the evidence that was stashed in the inventory room. As they all looked for clues, especially from the previous cases, there they found Melina, with some blood, dead. With Melina out, it now came down to three.

There were flashbacks of various cases from the past eight episodes, just as a refresher course heading into the season (or series?) finale. It lead to the remaining three-Kam, Lindsey and Cris-and their next tasks in hand. But first, the return of the 'zombies,' led by Sheri from the first episode to the recent zombie of Ronnie. The fallen came back as zombies, and they did in an orderly fashion from upstairs. A voice forwarded the three to find evidence from the past cases and puzzles that would fit in the shape of a question mark. The first of those puzzles was found earlier in this episode, courtesy of Melina's right arm. The remaining three raced all around Rue Manor finding clues. They even found Giles who was untied. How was he untied? Who knows?

As they raced to the basement where Giles is located, especially Kam with a contract in his hand, signed the killer's pact. Remember, Giles is NOT the killer, and he tweeted that eight hundred fucking times! As the remaining three were trying to get more clues, they all met upstairs. Kam and Cris were already there. Lindsey opened a door and BOOM! A mechanical knight with a bow and arrow was there. Lindsey opened the swing door and the knight released the arrow. Splat! The arrow lands on Lindsey's throat! I was assuming since I am also a fan of SIBERIA, and recalling a couple of episodes ago when Irene was demonstrating to the rest of her compadres that she can excel the master of archery, thus the suspicion that Irene was the killer. Note, Irene is Asian and there are no Asians on this series this season, so was she the 14th guest on Rue Manor, and the killer? And was she recruited by the producers to take out the 13 guests? That was my speculation until the last moments of the episode.

And then, the shock and awe. Cris and Kam were arguing about who was the killer? Kam denied and Cris first denied it. But the swerve is about to come. As if I was hoping something big was going to happen at the end, well, there was. Cris came to her senses that she was the killer. A flashback of her crimes with her narration led to the 'police' to place her on handcuffs and escort her out of Rue Manor. It is fitting just looking at a picture of the cops today and it showed that those 'cops' are none other than CSI: creator/executive producer Anthony E Zuiker, the creator of this show, and Cris Abrego, co-executive producer, who also executive produced The Rock of Love and the hugely controversial Megan Wants a Millionaire, a reality series that aired on VH1 a few years ago which was axed by VH1 after one of its contestants was charged with a murder and would later commit suicide.

Kam Perez, 30 of NYC, a Homeland Security attorney, won the prize of $250,000. Only $250,000 in cash, no prizes. The only man left was the only one left standing.

Miss Nevada 2010 Cris Crotz, 27, was unveiled as the "Whodunnit? Killer." Crotz failed to make to second level of Miss America 2010, the only pageant where it's all about 'talent.' Her 'talent' throughout the series was to betray. Thus, the biggest heel turn on television, and one that could run parallels to Hulk Hogan's heel turn and the formation of the nWo at Bash at the Beach 1996:

As for Cris herself, I would think that she was probably not the killer, but more as a mole for an organized criminal group with ties to Rue Manor. The REAL killer is probably out there, hence my original guess of a '14th' and '15th' guest on Rue Manor to spice things up and for the greater good of television at this time. I also thought that Cris had a gun and shot Kam and turn it on herself. Why not? Also would have been good.  Lots of good scenarios for the finale that would have worked much better than this. Great heel turn, but a big swerve as well. I was hoping for something big, and the viewers got it. And the Zuiker and Abrego cameos as 'cops' at the end. I was unaware!

So to recap this season...
1. Perez, Kam (winner)
2. Crotz, Cris (the 'killer')
3. Anderson, Lindsey (shot in the throat with an arrow)
4. Alvez, Melina (deceased)
5. Padron, Ronnie (hot tub turbulence)
6. Walker, Geno (shot in belly, impaled by chandelier)
7. Davis Blake, Dana (smothered, stabbed, immortalized)
(tie) Horne, Sasha (smothered, stabbed, immortalized)
9. Wilson, Ulysses (fatal horse fall)
10. Tabak, Don (mauled by puma)
11. Iwasinski, Adrianna (fatal cart explosion)
12. Mosbey, Dontae (third degree burns)
13. Marsh, Sheri (shot in neck with musket, blunt force trauma, electrocution)

It was a wonderful series. I would've expected more, and I hope ABC can pick up a season two, or do like most good series on broadcast television would do-take it to cable. If ABC doesn't pick up season two, it should be on FX, Showtime, starz, TNT, amc or HBO. Maybe CBS, since Zuiker's CSI: franchise is there, or even NBC or Fox.

Also the cast, not bad. I had a pleasure of interacting with the cast on twitter. Dana has followed me on twitter, and I had my tweets from the show favorite or tweeted by some of the cast, like Dana, and Melina, Ulysses and Adrianna.

Anyway, now that the season's over, I don't have not much to look forward to on Sunday nights this fall, maybe some Patrick Jane (Mentalist), but definitely, Sunday nights will be a sports night, especially in October when the baseball playoffs and World Series compete against Sunday Night Football. It's been done before...

One!

As the remaining four were investigating the horrifying hot tub hydroplane fatality of Ronnie from last episode, there have been some shocking, yet interesting stuff going on.

The first order of business was the ice breaking, where a box was uncovered. This was an important clue. Kam, the only male left, successfully achieved it the most. I was hoping they would all break their big-ass ice cubes Dolph Lundgren style:

 

Then the remaining guests were split, as usual. Cris and Melina were stopping by the area where Ronnie was last discovered. I was hoping they would actually jump in the pool or hot tub naked. And why not? If Esther did on SIBERIA despite her boobs being blurred out, why not? The show is rated TV-14 for Christ sakes! As more developments continued into the investigation, perhaps the biggest one of them all was when Melina discovered the ice cold body of Ronnie. With the cubes of ice in the hot tub, Ronnie's body temperature at death was probably 200 below zero (Fahrenheit, that is). Thus, why he hydroplaned. Before he hydroplaned, Ronnie (I think) addressed a letter to be left for Giles, along with coffee laced with-you guessed it-ricin. It was intended for Giles, but it was brought poolside to Ronnie. A surveillance camera saw Ronnie fainting very quickly, perhaps from the combination of the ricin-laced tea and blocks of ice cubes in the hot tub. All of which led to a foamy substance, which was ricin, that was discovered on his mouth. I was thinking that the foamy substance on his mouth was not ricin, but instead cum or powered crack, which means that a) a drug lord secretly injected crack into his body or b) somebody kissed him with semen, possibly from Ronnie. It could have been either way.

Then more valuable clues were found, including ones that were discovered when a bunch of balls popped up from a box. Afterwards, Lindsey had the biggest quote of the series: "Balls go everywhere." Clues and discussions ensued, and thus a big piece of the puzzle was solved in this investigation.

It's dinner time, and I was hoping Giles would say that "no one got spared." Wrong, as expected, Kam, who did more than everyone else in this episode, received the verbal 'spared' from Giles. But that's not all. I was now hoping that the four would not take Giles' words and instead get 'scared' cards, which was wrong. I was right about Melina and Lindsey getting one, but when it was time for Cris to open hers, I was shocked. She got a 'spared.' But remember, don't take anyone's word, because they could all die tonight.

The next day, they all were having conversations by the pool table. Later on, a limo was waiting and there, the remaining four were about to head out to perhaps a party or possibly another function. I was hoping there would be an explosion and everyone would die. Wrong, the limo driver almost headed off the cliff, then made a U-turn and headed back to Rue Manor, where a flat screen television was turned on. It was Giles! Tied up with guns to his head. And then the kicker. A bunch of smoke blanketed the living room of Rue Manor. Melina appeared to be missing. But where is she? The others also appeared, but could they go missing as well? And will they all die? We will all find out in the season finale.

Here are my bold predictions of the season finale:

• The smoke is marijuana smoke. Does that Cheech & Chong movie give you a clue?
• If there is a killer, it will probably NOT be anyone on Rue Manor.
• The zombies from previous episodes, as shown in the promo at end of this episode, will die.
• The maids will die.
• The remaining guests will die.
• Giles will die.
• AK-47s will be involved.
• FBI and DEA involved, possibly due to a drug bust.
• The '14th' and '15th' guests probably were next on the depth chart by casting and were probably listed that way as 'alternates' in case of any of the 13 deciding to quit before filming of first episode. One will be the killer, one will get the $250,000.
• Since this show is on ABC, a possible crossover with another reality show on another network (I'm thinking SIBERIA). And I'm certain those '14th' and '15th' guests are from that show.
• A huge special guest appearance (I'm hoping for Clark Gable III from CHEATERS)
• A suicide will be involved
• Or the ultimate, NO one is the killer and NO one gets $250,000.

As for my killer guess, if I want a name, look no further to Victoria from SIBERIA. She told her fellow mates at the end of an episode: "You guys are going to die." I wonder when she left the compound, she decided to wish that to her fellow mates, and then spread her agenda by killing guests on Rue Manor. Could that happen?

This is so intense, that this finale next week should be four hours long!

As for the scorecard, it remains stagnant:

ELIMINATED:
13. Sheri (blunt force trauma, third degree burns)
12. Dontae (electrocution)
11. Adrianna (fatal golf cart explosion)
10. Don (mauled by puma)
9. Ulysses (fatal horse fall)
8. Sasha (smothered, stabbed, immortalized)
(tie) Dana (smothered, stabbed, immortalized)
6. Geno (shot in belly, blunt force trauma)
5. Ronnie (fatality in hot tub)

Lucky to stay alive: Melina, Kam, Cris, Lindsey. Also throw in Giles and the two maids.

One...

It was another strange episode of Whodunnit?, and this one had heavy competition from some NFL preseason football game on NBC, featuring the Cowboys.

The remaining five guests on Rue Manor were investigating Geno's murder. Blood was all over the parquet floor, and a chandelier landed on Geno's head, apparently. But that wasn't the case. I was assuming Kane or the Undertaker snuck from somewhere in the manor, cut the chandelier cord, and chokeslammed Geno through the chandelier. That was not the case.

The faithful five began to look for various clues, including a 'two piece set' found in a drawer. This 'two piece set' I'm talking about is a 9mm gun with night vision, so when the lights were cut out (with another valuable clue-a blackout meter), killer began to go after Geno and shot him in the belly button.

In the morgue, some more interesting stuff discovered. When a bullet from the 9mm was found in Geno's belly button, Cris' reaction was this: "son of a biscuit!" I'm sure 'bitch' was edited out. Also the cell phone discovered in Geno's right pocket. It wasn't his, it was Giles! Why would Geno borrow Giles' cell phone? Maybe because a) Geno ran out of minutes or b) Geno's service went out (could have had Verizon). Or the killer randomly stole it from Giles' bedroom whilst he was sleeping and snuck it in there? Who knows?

Also, the lei's that were made out of these nuts. Geno avoided wearing them. When the remaining five guests deciphered the puzzle, it seemed tricky to some. Ronnie had trouble with it, the same way Dana detested the puzzles two episodes ago as 'demonic.' Ronnie also had trouble finding the nuts, and it bothered Melina a little bit, where she told him to "find your own nuts." Funny stuff. Also, there was two monkey sculptures that were discovered, one with a clue describing Geno's night. These sculptures were described as 'trained monkeys.' Hmmm...trained monkeys huh? Could the Angels' Rally Monkey be the killer? I was hoping one of the remaining guests was talking one-on-one to the monkey sculptures like what Miljan did to a 'totem pole' in the recent episode of SIBERIA:

At dinner time, finger food was served. None of the guests were in a good move for a party. Then Giles delivers the good news: Lindsey, who was the most valuable at solving Geno's murder, is verbally 'spared.' Then it's envelope time. Melina gets a 'scared,' and so does Ronnie, while Kam and Cris are 'spared.'

The next day, Giles and the guests meet up at the table, where he invites the remaining five to a spa day. Melina was covered up in a facial massage, whilst Ronnie was in the hot tub. Both were assuming they would live another day. Melina was thinking, "too much of this and I'll suffocate." However that wasn't the case. On the other hand, the hot tub Ronnie was in jetted in a whirlpool too fast, and he hydroplaned until he fell flat first. The brutal g-force from the whirlpool killed Ronnie instantly. Ronnie the Bounty Hunter has met his fate. Only four remaining, as indicated on the scorecard:

ELIMINATED:
13. Sheri (blunt force trauma, electrocution)
12. Dontae (third degree burns)
11. Adrianna (fatal cart explosion)
10. Don (mauled by puma)
9. Ulysses (fatal horse fall)
8. Sasha (stabbed, suffocated, immortalized)
(tie) Dana (stabbed, suffocated, immortalized)
6. Geno (shot, blunt force trauma)
5. Ronnie (hot tub fatality)

Remaining: Cris, Lindsay, Kam, Melina

I'm predicting this next to last episode (nine are planned for this season), that the maids and the remaining guests' lives are in danger, and it could come down to Giles and the Killer on the final episode. I want it to happen. Good for television, and a possible 14th or 15th guest could show up, one being the killer and one being the winner. Could those extra guests been reserves for the producers in case one of the guests is injured or quit? Or could these 'guests' come from another TV show; most likely one that airs on either ABC or another network? Possible crossover perhaps? And could there be some backstage politics involved, similar to the recent SIBERIA episode? It could happen. Stay tuned.

One...

The game now becomes a three on three affair, now that Sasha and Dana were immortalized. How did they both die. Both were sleep, suffocated, slit, froze in the morgue and placed there by the piano.

There were footprints by both rooms. It seemed the footprints matched a particular shoe, possibly a dress shoe, like Bruno Magli. I'm assuming the killer wore those shoes (O.J. Simpson reference). In the re-enactment, the killer is also wearing a hoodie. Trayvon Martin supporter, perhaps? And other clues appeared including notes in the piano and the piano seating and a way to open the bedroom door.

Giles took the remaining six to the underground cinema, where they are met with replica wax figures. A film in black and white was shown, which included valuable clues. The remaining guests later tore down the figurines. All of the guests did, except Cris, who found a way to guess what? A second morgue! Good work Cris! This second morgue was located behind a door where the chemicals and scalpels are located. Cris pushed it out and voila! A secret opening! This second morgue is where Cris found a hunter knife. The scalpel and hunter knife were both used on Sasha and Dana to drain the blood out. Both were slit in the wrists, like what emos do when they are frustrated.

Cris was truly the MVP of the night, even though I'm skeptical. She might be an agent for a mafia or organized criminal gang just to betray the other guests. Either that, or she might had a relationship within the criminal community, and that she is being used as their plot of power. I'm also skeptical about both morgues in Rue Manor. I'm certain the original proprietor must have been a former county medical examiner and was using the space below in case the bodies at the main location overflow, that the Rue Manor morgues would be backup.

At dinner, Giles announced that Kam was the first to be spared. But when it came to the 'scared,' it was Geno and Ronnie who got the 'scared' cards of the night. Then Giles would announce that there would be no one dead tonight, and everyone would relax by getting 'laid.' Not what you people want to see, but a different spelling. Try 'lei's.' A Hawaiian Luau!

Later that night, the Hawaiian luau on the living room lobby. Giles made the night, not only dancing to the music at the beginning, but also limboing. I was hoping he'd jump over the stick Javier Sotomayor style as if he's trying out for the IAAF World Championships in Athletics in a few weeks in Moscow.

And with Hawaiian luaus, a pig would be roasted. In the WHODUNNIT? universe, someone is about to be roasted. Not exactly. No one was cooked, but when the lights went out whilst having fun, everyone got scared. Something dropped on the floor, and it was a chandelier! The chandelier not only hit the floor, but also collected Geno in the process. Geno was knocked the fuck out like Ivan Drago did to Apollo Creed in Rocky IV. Remember what Drago said after the knockout win?

Someone cut a chandelier cord onto Geno! Poor Geno. It's now down to five, with about three episodes left. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes down to Giles and the killer mano-e-mano on the finale. Great for TV, and would be even greater if AK47 assault rifles and M83's would be involved. It's like watching a film from the glorious days of Cannon Films, especially with Charles Bronson and Chuck Norris in it.

As for the scorecard...

ELIMINATED
13. Sheri (blunt force trauma, electrocution)
12. Dontae (third degree burns)
11. Adrianna (cart explosion)
10. Don (mauled by puma)
9. Ulysses (fatal horse fall)
8. Sasha (stabbed, immortalized)
(tie) Dana (stabbed, immortalized)
6. Geno (blunt force trauma via chandelier)

One...

I joined this one already in progress after El Salvador/Costa Rica Copa Oro 2013 semifinal. Good match nonetheless.

The remaining eight picked up the pieces trying to decipher how Ulysses fell off his horse. A makeshift morgue containing a body bag and Ulysses' body was on the farm. Also, the stables had some interesting stuff in there. I'm not sure if there could have been drugs stashed in there, or even drugs to help enhance the performance of the horse (regardless if those horses are thoroughbred or not), which I think is a no-no by organizations like NTRA (thoroughbred racing).

It gets even deeper or deeper. A snake was discovered, and Sasha was probably the first to state the snake's containment of a poisonous venom. This snake got into Ulysses' pants, and was probably aiming for his genitals. Sasha's description of the snake is reminiscent of Miljan's 'tiger' comment on the most recent episode of SIBERIA ("Tigers can't be dangerous. It is a big cat."). Ulysses' jeans he had on at the time of his 'death' only had evidence of dirt, but nothing containing a snake bite (I might have to watch that scene again).

It's lunchtime and everyone is munching on a sack lunch, with sandwich, water, chips and apple. I tweeted that "those sandwiches looked good and better than Subway." Giles responded saying that "the toast was burnt and the meat and cheese was moldy." Anything is better than hallucinated mushrooms, right Esther? (another random Siberia reference). At that time, both Kam and Geno were arguing about something. I was hoping they would fight, for good television. Or better yet, Oscar de la Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions should put these two on the Floyd/Canelo card on September 14.

Then there's a race to help find a clue. The eight had to decipher a puzzle, then run into a room full of snakes. Of everyone there, Kam found it the fastest. Dana described the puzzle as 'satanic.' Quote of the night.

It's nighttime, and a campfire is there. No one's jacket was used (once again, another subtle Siberia reference to Neeko in the most recent episode), while Giles arrived. He first announces the first spared contestant: Cris. Why did I oppose this movement? Cris to me is lying for a reason and miscommunicating between her team and the others. Kam also got a verbal spared notice from Cris. With that in mind, only six left and two 'scared' cards to be handed out.

The first of those 'scared' cards went to Sasha. Not surprising, because she actually pointed out to the rest of her team regarding the snake. But wait there's more. The other 'scared' card went to Dana (again). And that's it. Not. You wouldn't believe there would be a third 'scared' card, right? And it went to Geno! So therefore a first! Not one, not two, but three 'scared' cards! A chance that two or three could be 'killed' off soon.

The next day, noise on the first floor of the manor prompted Geno to wake up, and it discovered that the noise came from a piano-or was it? And there was Sasha, playing the piano and Dana standing next to it. Both immortalized in wax, and could possibly bypass the morgue for an exhibit at Madame Tussaud's. Watching the promo for the next episode, there could be more. This is a nine-episode series, with four more to go. Could the remaining six survive? Could Giles and the maid survive? Or did an invisible spirit from the sky containing the voice of Victoria (Siberia) warn the remaining people in the manor?

As for Dana and Sasha, the movies Waxwork and Waxwork II: Lost in Time come to mind.

With that in mind, I can expect this for next Sunday:

"TONIGHT on the ABC Sunday Night Movie. Two women have been immortalized into wax and the remaining guests on a manor are trying to survive before they turn into one.

Gildart Jackson stars in WAXWORK III: No Longer on Earth. Next."

As for the scorecard:

ELIMINATED:
13. Sheri (blunt force trauma, electrocution)
12. Dontae (third degree burns)
11. Adrianna (cart explosion)
10. Don (mauled by puma)
9. Ulysses (fatal horse fall)
8. Sasha (immortalized into wax figure)
(tie) Dana (immortalized into wax figure)

Remaining: Melina, Cris, Geno, Kam, Ronnie, Lindsey

Whodunnit? Episode 4 Review: Not a Horse of a Chance!

One...

As the remaining guests pieced together how Don was mauled by the puma.  He didn't like his T-bone medium rare, so he went to the kitchen. When Don cooked the T-bone, arsenic smells began to trigger from the kitchen grill. Don got some of it, and it continued to spread throughout the kitchen. It passed through a seam in a hatch door where a puma came through. It was from there, Don was mauled to death. Giles would later shoot the puma.

As the remaining nine split into three groups, the kitchen was full of blood that was Don's. Also, his body had paw prints from the puma which makes me believe these two things: the puma sexually assaulted Don, and the puma might have contained the HIV virus. At the in-manor morgue, I see that there was all blood on the back of his ass, but no seminal fluid, especially from the puma. Animals can rape humans you know.

Various messages were hidden all over the place, including one that Giles originally read, where I think based upon its size, originated from a fortune cookie. Don't know if it had any lottery numbers on the other side. Another was this tiny message on this periodic table.

Once again, more friction. As Geno, Ronnie and Dana were more valuable this time, there were more harm toward Cris (I think). But it was at the dinner table where it counts. Now keep in mind, if you watched Siberia last Monday, George withdrew and took home $5,000 after Tommy was 'killed' off. So I was assuming that Dana would tell her mates the same thing, especially the last two episodes where she got the 'scared' card. Apparently, somebody talked her into continuing her quest for $250k. And after ducking the 'scared' card in back to back weeks, Giles announced that Dana was spared and will get to live another week.

Now onto the card distribution. I was hoping a woman would be killed off and that woman would be Cris, considering the pattern: Sheri, Dontae, Adrianna, and Don. As the remaining eight (sans Dana) unveiled their cards, it was a shock. First it was Ulysses that received a 'scared' card, then it was Kam. I was hoping Cris would, but her card said 'spared.' So it was down to the two attorneys.

The next morning, Giles and all the guests rode on horses on the farm. However it was the horse that Ulysses was on which lost control. Both the horse and Ulysses barreled down a hill and both fell. The horse is probably dead, but Ulysses, a practicing attorney, is dead as well. Remember, he's a popular contestant-among the slags. He was trying too hard to attempt to qualify for equestrian or modern pentathlon for Rio 2016. Thus, in ice hockey terminology, this is a two-man advantage for the women.

I see on the promo, a snake is gonna go after something or someone...hmmm....

As for the scorecard...

ELIMINATED
13. Sheri (blunt force trauma; electrocution)
12. Dontae (third degree burns)
11. Adrianna (cart explosion)

Whodunnit? Episode 3 Review: Don Tar-Tar

For those who want to ignore the spoilers. Prepare for the review in...

Two...






One!

This third episode of Whodunnit? explores the explosion that killed Adrianna, which led to two former 'scared' card holders picking up another 'scared' card.

It all started with the investigation of Adrianna's death, where she tried to leave the premises on a golf cart. Being so fit for her age she had to hustle, but the spot she 'had' to meet with this person is where she and the cart exploded. Adrianna's body flew to a tree, while the cart was on fire. In my previous review for the second episode, it seemed as if she was trying to imitate the cart scene from Jackass: The Movie. Wrong.

At first it was a land mine, but it was discovered that this killer probably placed a land mine there. A remote control was discovered-it could have been placed there by the killer-on Adrianna's left hand. It even gets intriguing, as I believe some invisible spirit dragged her and lured her and that was her ultimate demise.

Giles mentioned that Adrianna was watching 'reality TV.' Not true, she was probably originally watching the Spain-Tahiti FIFA Confederations Cup match. Once disappointed by Tahiti's efforts, she probably switched back to Rock of Love. She also had a bowl of Multi-Grain Cheerios in her hand, and dropped it. All that was discovered while the remaining guests were investigating.

But wait, there was more. Giles unleashed a clue. This clue was a bomb which split into half, and ten golf balls were inside, along with a message. I would have thought Tiger Woods would be the killer, considering the golf balls are in there. Don't know if they're Nike balls, since Woods is signed with Nike.

Also there were other clues. The tapes, which were found in the trash, as well as the monitors and surveillance equipment, especially the surveillance that captured the cart explosion. The tapes were very interesting, because I was thinking, "one of those tapes could have porn, and another could have a sex tape." Neither were discovered by the remaining guests. Kam had one of those tapes in his hand. I was thinking, "Kam, you know you want to pop it in because it has some porno on it!" I was also hoping a sex tape would be discovered amongst the tapes. Sex tapes are huge in such an investigation, you know. Also the monitors displaying the messages from the tapes. You all should be glad a 'dragon' never popped up in one of those tapes, Tic-Tac-Dough style:

As the investigation got deeper, alliances were beginning to form, and I was thinking, one could have had a complete 360 heel turn, pro wrestling style. Keep in mind, the episode aired last night here in the states on ABC, the 17th anniversary of Hulk Hogan joining the nWo; truly the greatest heel turn in the history of professional wrestling. It was at Bash at the Beach 1996 live on Pay Per View:

Finally all of the friction during the investigation lead to even more shocking stuff at the dinner table. Sizzling steak fajitas were on the menu. I would have thought Lindsey was scared. Nope. Giles said she was spared. As the remaining ten unveil their cards. I wouldn't believe two former 'scared' card holders-Dana and Don-would be the ones getting the 'scared' cards again. In fact, they both did. I was hoping it would be Kam and Lindsey. Again, the wrong people got the 'scared' cards.

Breakfast time. Steak and eggs on the menu. Everyone arrived. Dana came in late, and so did Don. I was hoping nothing happened to both. The exception: everyone's steaks were well done, except the steaks of both Dana and Don. Don went to the kitchen. A door in the kitchen was the perfect opening for a cougar. Don was in the kitchen and voila, the cougar presumably mauled him. Don, a former private investigator and the oldest of the guests on the manor, is the fourth 'fatality' on the manor. As for Dana, a second consecutive week she has ducked the killer. Who knows where that cougar came from? It will be interesting where this will go the next few Sunday nights.

At the end of the closing credits sequence, Adrianna discussed the cart explosion. It seems something out of the TV show Jackass. In that position on the tree, burnt from the explosion. She could have introduced herself: "I'm Adrianna Iwasinski. Welcome to Jackass." Then cue "Corona" by the Minutemen.

As for the scorecard:

ELIMINATED:
13. Sheri (electrocution, blunt force trauma)
12. Dontae (third degree burns)

Whodunnit? Episode 2 Review: Anchor Aweigh!

Three...





Two...





One!



On Saturday night, Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin turned Matt Macklin into a 'good boy.' On Sunday night, the killer in the second Whodunnit? episode eventually turned another guest into a 'good boy'--or shall I say--'good girl'!

As you may see, another guest in the mansion has 'perished.' But it all starts with the investigation into Dontae's charbroiling, precipitated when he touched a door in which it was possibly ignited by a flammable substance, causing Dontae to run in flames towards the pool. Thus he cooled off, but Giles declared to the remaining 11, that Dontae died of third degree burns. And so the investigation proceeded. Groups of three or four were split once again, and there was friction. The main friction was between Kam, Dana, Adrianna, Ulysses and Sasha. Ulysses at first didn't want to include Sasha or Adrianna because they probably had good evidence to support to them, thus the suspicion of Ulysses as a killer (could be a probability).

Lots of clues were found leading to Dontae's demise, including a flag with a message and the crest of the manor, depicted on a flag which was revealed with a spray of butane. Also the pendant. Could a female guest secretly give Dontae that gift? That was on my mind when I saw that. The pajamas could also cause some sort of spontaneous combustion to the body, because clothing could cause fires you know, and could do so if the body temperature reaches around 120 degrees (Fahrenheit). All of which lead to Dontae's body, char-broiled like a Carl's Jr. burger. This episode should have been sponsored by Kingsford, which is fitting because this is a big week here in the states for cookouts!

So, with that in mind, at the dinner table is the remaining 11 and Giles. Giles shockingly told Ulysses that he's spared, resulting in the pretty boy living another day (pissed me off). To add insult to injury, Giles also announced that Kam was spared as well. Only nine left, but two would pull a 'scared' card. The first was Dana, and she cried so hard. The other was between Melina and Adrianna. I was hoping Melina would get it, but Adrianna would also draw the 'scared' card, which only leads to one of the demises of the two southern belles.

Late night, Dana was reading the Bible and praying that the killer doesn't strike her. However, it appears an invisible spirit drew Adrianna from her room. She was eating a bowl of cereal and dropped it. This invisible spirit chased Adrianna from her room where she tried to escape the property by driving a golf cart out. Sadly the path that she tried to escape was derailed when she eventually ran into what is believed to be a land mine. It exploded, sending Adrianna flying from the cart. Adrianna, an anchor-reporter at KWTV (CBS) Oklahoma City, is the third to 'perish' from the property, resulting in ten guests left. Five men, five women, even strength Whodunnit?, just like an ice hockey match.

Adrianna's demise reminded me of this scene from the carting scene from the first Jackass movie:

I think the land mines were actually planted there. Perhaps someone wanted Adrianna dead simply because it is an ABC show, and she works for a CBS affiliate. Could the killer work for NBC or Fox? Who knows? Keep watching the next few Sundays!

As for the scorecard...

ELIMINATED
13. Sheri (electrocution, blunt force trauma)
12. Dontae (third degree burns)
11. Adrianna (explosion)

Remaining: Dana, Cris, Geno, Don, Lindsey, Ronnie, Ulysses, Kam, Sasha, Melina

Whodunnit? Episode 1 Review & Skywire Mini Rant

Set...




Read!

Sunday night was a busy night of TV for me at the 8pm Central hour. Not only there was a replay of the GLORY World Series 9 from the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York, which was held Saturday night, on CBS Sports Network (evidently, there was major competition in NYC that night with the Golden Boy card on SHOWTIME, featuring SHOWTIME analyst Paulie "Don't brag about my sidepiece" Malignaggi and Adrien "I am now a problem" Broner), there was also the first ever episode of the new reality show Whodunnit?.

13 checked in, two 'killed' off. This is how it stands after the first ever episode of the American ABC series Whodunnit?, the reality show from CSI: creator/executive producer Anthony Zuiker (follow him on twitter @zuiker).

Unlike the CSI: franchise series, Whodunnit?'s theme is not by The Who. However, it starts off as 13 civilians entering a mansion. The next day, as Sheri, a former NFL cheerleader, came out the shower, she reads a message on the mirror, precipitated from the steam from the hot shower she took. The supposed 'killer' is luring Sheri to the fish tank. Then from there, it gets very interesting. Someone took a crowbar, went out onto the lawn, and unlocked the box. There, it was a slingshot and musket balls. The unknown person quickly stashed the crowbar back into the box. The unknown person would use that slingshot and eventually, let the musket ball go with full force it hit Sheri in the neck. Sheri would later hit the fish tank head on, it cracked the glass of the fish tank. Sheri fell down, and down wires await. Her ass got fried! This is where the investigation begins.

Her blood on the carpet, the water, possibly from the fish tank, and the musket found on Sheri's neck at autopsy. I was thinking about the autopsy part. "Wait...the morgue is located in the mansion?" All of which cultivated some division and tension amongst the civilians whilst the civilians ate finger sandwiches at poolside.

Once the butler distributed the cards, fear and angst ensued. The remaining twelve at the dinner table opened their cards. Everyone got spared--except Dontae and Don. So we all know who the killer will strike next.

It's late at night, and the alarm sounds. Everyone evacuates with the butler doing a roll call of the civilians. Don came out late, but Dontae never came out. Dontae ran out in a goodness gracious, great ball of fire. Dontae, an insurance investigator with a personality similar to Carl Weathers' Apollo Creed character from the Rocky series, ran into the pool to cool. It was too late. Judging by the preview for the next episode, the butler declared Dontae as 'deceased.'

In summary, two deceased in the first episode of TV's newest version of the board game Clue. It is a good action pack start to this series. I feel sad for those who watched Nik Wallenda's stupid tightroping across the Grand Canyon, as opposed to the Whodunnit? premiere, where unlike the Whodunnit? cast, he could have been really dead. Mr. Wallenda, leave the Grand Canyon crossing to Kaptain Robbie Knievel. At least he knows when it's safe to go and did so safely:

We could all laugh if Wallenda fell down the Grand Canyon. Now that I have my rant on Skywire, here is the Whodunnit? scorecard after 1 episode:

ELIMINATED
13. Sheri (electrocution, blunt force trauma)
12. Dontae (burned)

Remaning: Don, Dana, Cris, Adrianna, Geno, Kam, Ronnie, Sasha, Lindsey, Ulysses, Melina

Whodunnit? Tonight on ABC!

A beauty queen, a former PI, a cardiac nurse, a former NFL cheerleader, a bounty hunter, even an anchor reporter at a CBS affiliate (ironic since this show is on ABC) are among the contestants on ABC's Whodunnit?, premiering tonight on ABC.

I will give this show a try, because who knows what will happen. Will we see grenades used? AK-47s? Who knows.

Anthony E. Zuiker (@zuiker on twitter), the creator of the CSI: franchise is behind this variant of the game Clue. If you like CSI:, give it a try. Avoid spoilers until it is time for the show to come on.
