An interesting phenomenon is taking place in Hollywood. There are two summer releases connected to extremely popular action figures of the 1980s. The first is the sequel to The Transformers, which premiered earlier in the season. The second, which enters the fray on August 7th, is G.I. Joe. Not the G.I. Joe that featured the […]
(Season 1, Episodes 1-6) I got myself suckered into this gig. One mention of how I didn’t know Dylan McDermott from anything landed me an ultimatum: watch The Practice, or die. Okay, not die, but Rich can be a hard-nosed guy sometimes. Oreo, too. Let me ask you all a question; what does it say […]

The evening starts with episodes […]

There’s only one place to start: this 86-episode opus, which spanned eight and-a-half years, and six […]
(Season 3, Episodes 13-15) I’ve got to say one thing for the Weeds folks: they keep you on your toes. I like how they seem to almost reboot the series at the end of every season. They change the dynamics enough to keep it interesting. After watching the season 3 finale, I have no idea what […]
