Boston Legal – Cheri Oteri is dumb; can you murder a man being executed?

(Season 5, Episode 9 – “Kill, Baby, Kill!”) Boston Legal loves touching on hot political issues, and we’ve gotten some of our best material from them. That didn’t happen tonight.

One of my buddies at TV Squad, Jonathan Toomey, wrote up an excellent piece about his experience getting to see the final two episodes of The Shield in a private screening a few weeks ago or so.

(Season 3, Episode 9 – “It’s Coming”) This episode really didn’t grab me, which is what I’ve said about all the previous episodes this season. Many of my friends have already cut the cord on Heroes, but not me! I’m staying til the bitter end, dawgawnit. So they’ve returned to the original image of the […]

The Big Bang Theory – Rock, paper, scissors, lizard, Spock!

(Season 2, Episode 8 – “The Lizard-Spock Expansion”) Okay, here’s how it goes. I’m only going to tell you once: Scissors cut paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitate lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock and, as it’s always been, rock crushes scissors.
