I have a life, I really do. Yet still I re-watched the pilot episode of The Vampire Diaries when it premiered tonight. It was a whole lot of set up with a lot of promise, but the scene I enjoyed the most was between Stefan and Damon. You can read my preview post outlining the […]
(Season 3, Episodes 13-16) The energy and excitement in the middle of season three is definitely there. We’re kind of treading water as far as the bigger story goes, but I think The X-Files has found its groove as a monster-of-the-week show. Right now, those episodes are almost more enjoyable than the “MythArc” installments. I […]
There is actually enough to Ikea Heights to warrant a post all on its own. At its core, the show is a clever sendup of daytime soaps. You have the unfaithful wife, a long lost brother, murder, amnesia, and even a hidden treasure. And it’s all played in a very over-the-top way that embraces the […]
(Season 2, Episodes 17-20) House, MD, at least the second season, is coming in for a landing. We’re starting to see some characters evolve, for the worse, and, I guess, the worser. I like Omar Epps, I really do, but I really don’t like where the character of Foreman is going (though, to be honest, […]

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said, “Oh, wow!” of late. Jimmy and Ellenor haven’t changed, and I still think […]
Before you go all batty on me, let’s break it down: I saw the pilot episode, and sure, there are elements of Buffy, but I think The Vampire Diaries borrows a bit from most of the vamp entertainment out there. The question is, will it be able to branch out and become unique and wonderful […]
Less case, more character. In general, I think I’d applaud this change of pace. But, re-visiting Jaimie’s past for the second time in a short first season? I’m just saying — it felt very recycled. And, that being the major focus of this week’s episode of Dark Blue, there really wasn’t much else to sink my […]
