(Season One, Episodes 13 – 16) It took me a couple of episodes to get behind the introduction of Edward Vogler, but by the end of these four, I was. You’ll see that I didn’t think he was necessary when first introduced, but he grew on me. It’s odd, considering what these doctors do each […]
I know what I said last week. Nevertheless, after four episodes, there still isn’t much that’s new to say about HawthoRNe. It’s interesting, or not, to note how slowly the show is evolving. Are we even getting to know the characters better, or has each episode just given us a little more of the same? And, […]
When Once and Again aired between 1999 and 2002, I was freelancing for an editor at a regional magazine, and every morning after the show, we’d email each other to gossip and rag on it. “Did you see what Eli did? And what the heck’s going on with Jessie?” It was just that sort of […]
Reruns, reruns, reruns. It’s all procedurals and reality shows on Wednesdays, so if that’s your bag, enjoy! Myself, I’ll be counting down the days until Lost comes back. Ever reliable CBS has their usual lineup: Gary Unmarried is on at 8:30 PM with a particularly funny episode of Old Christine, where she and Barb accidentally […]
When I was a wee lad, I used to watch Doctor Who. Living in the sticks, there was little in the way of television choices. We received channels 2, 4, and 7, which were the Big Three Networks, and on clear winter days, we could remotely turn the rooftop antenna to tune in the local […]
(Season 3, Episodes 4-6) This second batch of episodes isn’t as action-packed as the first, but nevertheless, I really like this season so far. Nancy, while still not a character I can get behind, at least isn’t making me hate her so much. It’s probably because she’s come out and told her kids she’s a […]
Rescue Me does a good job mixing up the serious and the funny. Last week’s descent into the hell that is Tommy’s scarred psyche gave way to this week’s jocular antics. The episode had a boxing theme running throughout, and I’m not just talking about Franco’s ring debut. The entire cast was throwing down with […]
I knew it! When the new season premiered, my take on the Kitty shenanigans looked like this: “My guess is that this is all a prelude to revisiting the talk of children from earlier in their engagement.” Now here we are at episode five, “Half Load,” and that’s just what we find. Away from the […]
