Taub dies on House – ya think?

OK, maybe that’s not even remotely true, but after watching this week’s episode of House, I have some theories as to why there’s a good chance that what we’ll be seeing is the suicide of Dr. Taub. Heck, even TV Guide agrees with me, so I can’t be completely all wet, right? Taub’s been less […]

30 Rock – Page-ing Kenneth Ellen Parcell

I have a mixed relationship with 30 Rock. I tried it when it first aired on NBC back in 2006. I quickly passed. And, that had nothing to do with the fact that I loved Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip; the two have absolutely zero in common. Rather, it just wasn’t funny for me. […]

House – Death by paper cut

For a show whose protagonist vehemently claims to be an atheist, House certainly deals with a lot of religious themes and striking coincidences. One of the strong commonalities of the best and most interesting House cases is that the underlying causes are always weird, inconceivable ailments that can only be caused (and discerned) by putting […]
