Geesh. Does Michael Westen ever get a moment’s peace? Hah, never! Such is the life of a spy guy. Burn Notice ended its summer run in typical explosive fashion last night. Surprise, surprise, Mike’s status with the Agency is still in limbo; thanks in large part to him icing the sleazy Strickler, and Diego being […]
(Season 2, Episodes 1-4) Lots of big cases, and lots of questionable ethical, and legal, maneuvering.

I really, really loathe most family sitcoms. I’m on board with the According to Jim haters’ club we’ve got going on CliqueClack (although now that it’s canceled, there goes the fun), and let’s just say that I’ve never even watched an episode of … wait — are there even any family sitcoms on anymore?
