On my mind this week is a love/hate relationship with Buffy and Angel, a flashback to Nick Bockwinkel and Larry Zbyszko, a return to my hard rock roots, and my spot-on theory about Lost. Read on, and please add your own clacks in the comments below. Buffy the Vampire Slayer is driving me nuts. I’m […]
Back when Soap premiered on ABC in 1977, you could say I was a little too young to watch it. So young in fact, that I hadn’t even been born yet. Hell, even when when the series ended its run in 1981, I still had not made my way into existence. So how is it […]
