What's New At G-POP.net:
9-1-1 - Melissa Minners offers up her First Impressions of the new FOX procedural drama.
Excerpt: "Watching promos for the new dramatic series 9-1-1, scheduled to premiere on January 3, 2018, I couldn’t wait to check it out. It seemed to cover everything from police to fire to paramedics, looked incredibly interesting and sported a great cast, which included Angela Bassett, Peter Krause and Connie Britton. Despite the fact that television seems to be saturated with procedural dramas these days, I was still convinced that this would be a hit for FOX if the promotional material was any indication..."
Mr. Robot V.3 - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the second season of Mr. Robot.
Excerpt: "... Once again, we have the electronic score, featuring synths and ambient sound. The score is sometimes ominous, but when fast-paced, there is a sense of danger and intrigue that gets the adrenaline pumping. The only track that sounded like it didn’t quite belong or was perhaps pointing toward a deeper, psychological or emotional issue was Music Box, featuring just that – the calliope style music one associates with an older music box..."
Truth and Lies: Waco - Melissa Minners reviews a documentary about the tragedy at the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas.
Excerpt: "Launched in January 2017, Truth and Lies is an ABC network documentary series. Before January 2018, there were four specials in the series, each centered on a different topic: the Menendez brothers, Charles Manson, Watergate and Laci Peterson. When ABC announced that the first documentary in this series for 2018 would be about the deadly raid at the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas, I was intrigued. And so, I found myself seated in front of the television on January 4, 2018 at 9pm to watch Truth and Lies: Waco..."
Raze - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of an action film starring Zoe Bell.
Excerpt: "...The musical score of Raze features a mix of orchestral and electronic sound. There is a great deal of music manipulation, reverb and ambient sound mixed in with electric percussion, guitars, strings and pianos. Each track created for a fight scene has an action feel, but no two fight scene tracks are alike..."
Closing the Case: Saying Goodbye to Major Crimes - Melissa Minners says goodbye to one of her favorite TNT dramatic television series.
Excerpt: "Last night brought a close to a series I have watched in its different incarnations since 2005. From it’s beginnings in 2005 as The Closer until its 2012 spinoff Major Crimes, my family and I have been a fan of this TNT procedural drama for years. Last night, watching the final episode of Major Crimes brought about mixed feelings, for as much as I didn’t want the show to end, I could see the reasoning behind ending the series now..."
The Nine - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of a documentary about the people struggling to survive in Modesta, California's South Ninth Street.
Excerpt: "...The Nine Soundtrack made for quite an interesting listen. Without knowing what the movie was about, or even that it was a documentary, the music offered up the idea that a poignant message was being related in this film. I am interested to see how the music plays with the visuals of the documentary..."
