Castle – It’s fashion week in New York….

…and the clothes are to die for. “Inventing The Girl” is a perfect example of what I really like about Castle. There is certainly a formulaic aspect to the case of the week, but they manage to do it in an interesting way. This week, I was sure I had figured out whodunit three different […]

House gives a shout-out to Dexter

“I need you to spread your legs so I can do an ‘H’.” – House to Cameron as he’s miming the diagnosis to Foreman When I first started watching tonight’s episode of House, I was feeling decidedly “meh” about the case of the week. Politics, blah, blah, blah, moral dilemma, whatever. I just wasn’t into […]

Heroes – Things may be getting interesting

It’s clear that Heroes is trying to address some of the criticisms of the past few seasons.

Yes, he’s strong-willed and competitive, which are good traits in the legal profession, but he’s also treating his fiance like complete and total […]

Mad Men – When the cat’s away

Beware of those dog days of August if you’re married and it’s 1963. I never thought that I would be comparing Pete and Betty while watching Mad Men, but, by golly, they were certainly going through parallel plots in this episode, weren’t they? I didn’t think this episode carried quite the same gravity as the […]

Curb Your Enthusiasm; Dexter; Entourage – In that order

I had a tough time figuring out how I’d order my Sunday night’s lineup, and there’s a very close fourth show that I struggled with adding over Entourage. Curb Your Enthusiasm — The Seinfeld moments alone give this episode my number one pick of the night. I caught this episode a couple of weeks ago, […]
