Diary of a Prisoner Virgin – Be seeing you

(Episode 15 – “Once Upon A Time” & Episode 16 – “Fall Out”) It seems as though, as this series progressed, the writers dipped a bit more into the happy juice/snacks/herbs as the season went on. As I said a few episodes ago, The Prisoner really started to stray off of the format we’d gotten […]

My weekend TV binge – Party Down and This American Life

This weekend I found myself in the same spot that I usually find myself when the summer weather turns hot and steamy: sitting on my sofa in my air conditioned house. I’m one of those people who you will never hear complain when the summer days are cloudy and a little cold. I hate the […]

True Blood – Oh yes, he is the best offering ever!

So finally the storyline that I’ve hated comes together with the characters that have been having a good time out in Dallas.

Ratings Clack – Heidi and Tim are back

It’s another week where the ratings news from cable is much more interesting than anything happening on the networks. The big story was the premiere of Project Runway (finally) on Lifetime, but there was plenty more fun to be had. Also getting in on the premiere game was Mad Men, Kourtney and Khloe, Hoarders, Ghost […]

The trouble with MacGuffins – Fringe, Burn Notice and the five minute MacGuffin

I was as excited as anyone about Fringe at the start of last season. My hopes were really high for the show, but after five or six episodes it became pretty evident that the show just wasn’t for me. I’ve never been a big fan of procedurals, and the format of Fringe was too case-of-the-week […]
