Bio: While CliqueClack is my first foray into the blogosphere, it’s just one stop along my long journey in writing. With my first book of short stories bounded via copy machine when I was still a lad, my evolution along the trajectory of writing has far exceeded that of my drawing; that first book was fronted by a rather pedestrian hand drawing of “Leatherhead”, of TMNT fame, and my ability hasn’t grown beyond rudimentary since those days. But the baby’s cute!

Greek – Oh me, oh my, lavaliere for Rust-eye

Yeah, I cheated on that one — so sue me. Or direct your anger at Rusty. What are you thinking, boy? Jordan? This is when sounds of a truck backing up should be screaming in your head. I think a large part of all of this is who he was pre-Jen K. Rusty’s years as […]

Army Wives – Where’s the line in recruiting drawn?

First of all, I was very glad to get back to our regularly scheduled Army Wives this week. Not to take anything away from those of you who enjoyed last week’s divergence, but clearly there was a lot of drama to get to this week, and I for one was anxiously awaiting it. I like […]

The West Wing lucked into two great characters for one role – The Sam-to-Will transformation

When it came to casting, The West Wing was a rock star. And I’m not just talking about one-off guests or mini-arcs, but the heart of the cast as well. But since I could likely get lost saying “a little something” about each one, let’s just leave it at this: job extremely well done. There […]

An actual “Cold” Case for the season premiere! Will wonders never cease?

Everybody’s talking about the return of Thursday night destination television — I don’t know what’s being broadcast where the rest of you live, but in my house, things are so dead that I was able to screen the premiere of Cold Case last week while waiting to watch The Office tape-delayed. DEAD. I’ve gotten the chance to screen […]

That’s exactly why people should invite Hank Moody to dinner

Writing my preview piece last week, I got so excited about the coming season of Californication that I dropped everything else that I had to do and popped in the screener DVD right then and there. And it was so good that I insisted that my wife — who hates the show — watch the entire dinner […]

Curb Your Enthusiasm – If you’re a huge Seinfeld fan, Larry will call you on your birthday!

My impatience with waiting for the Seinfeld reunion on Curb Your Enthusiasm led me to take advantage of my screener last week. Alas, no luck on episode two (and a scratch on episode three, entitled “The Reunion,” cut my viewing short at minute two!). However, you’ll be happy to know that I took what some of you […]

The Office – Colonoscopies, meetings, and Wisconsin cheese

I don’t know whose idea it was, but that was one of the funniest cold opens in the history of The Office … and that’s a really tough get. Only Michael would think to seek colonoscopy advice from The Office’s resident gay man, Oscar. Wow. “In your experience, what should I be expecting … in terms […]
