Some time back, I wrote a piece where I spoke of my dread of the new ABC Family Christmas special, A Miser Brothers’ Christmas, based on the beloved characters from The Year Without a Santa Claus. Based on what I had seen of it, I predicted it would be dreadful. I also promised that if […]

Yes, I’m American, born and bred. I have a warm heart and more Christmas spirit than perhaps Old Saint Nick himself (especially in The Year Without a Santa Claus where he is frustrated and thinks he needs a vacation; you work one night a year, dude — suck it up!) So how, you ask, how […]

Today’s guest clacker is Kelly Bedard, who’s guest clacked for us once before. If there’s one thing that I took away from last week’s Private Practice (other than the urge to vomit after that horrendous Violet/Pete hookup), it was a sense of nostalgia for the quality teen programming of yesteryear.

Personally, I would have liked another two hours to properly tell the tale of Iraq’s vile dictator and his wacky family, but beggars can’t be choosers. There’s more than enough blood and betrayal in the final two chapters to satisfy. Part […]
