This week in television was fine, but there really wasn’t a whole lot of new stuff that set my world on fire. Leverage was pretty funny, and Mad Men season 2 is on “On Demand”, which is pretty amazing, but nothing truly tickled me this week in the way that Anderson Cooper did, when he […]
Episode two of Being Human jumped around quite a bit. We’re still in the character introduction stage, so the choppy feeling is to be expected.
