Oh, how I wish I had live-blogged this week’s American Idol performances. It was ripe — ripe, I tell you! — with fodder for discussion. Part comedy, part tragedy, it was akin to Shakespeare … well, no. But let’s try to relive it through my stream-of-consciousness post; I hope it doesn’t make you miss the […]
Ron D. Moore’s latest podcast is up for last week’s episode, and it’s full of behind-the-scenes stuff that is much more interesting for true fans of the series than casual ones. He goes into a lot of the background for the characters of Helo, the Eights and Starbuck, and the actors who play them. You […]
Jimmy Fallon seems like a nice guy. He’s so painfully earnest and friendly, and people were giving him such a hard time when he was announced as Conan’s successor, that I started rooting for him (which, now that I think about it, how awesome would it be if he’s actually a total dick and this […]
Wow. Just, wow. There was a lot going on in this episode, wasn’t there? See what’s going on in this picture? Yes, that’s D.A. Devalos as Rainn Wilson’s Rollo and Lynn as Juno herself. When I first saw the chucks, the swinging jug of Sunny D, and the pregnant belly bulging out of a red […]

The boss: Big Mike (and Harry and Emmett) vs. Ted: Not much to say about Michael “Big Mike” Tucker (Mark Christopher Lawrence). He rarely does […]
Sebastian’s back Guest-clacking for us again, taking a break from his usual commentary about Friday Night Lights…. How insanely good was last week’s episode of Life? What do you mean you don’t know? Go watch it right now on NBC.com and when you come back we can start with talking about the music after the […]
(Season 2, Episode 16 – “The Cushion Saturation”) Oh, look! It’s Sheldon in his paintball gear! Why, this could be the start of an entirely new Village People character for modern age! Yes, yes, I know. He’s more asexual than homosexual. But the outfit works, doesn’t it? But this isn’t about Sheldon being a new […]
It’s a tricky bit of business, reviewing shows on the internet. In the past, I’ve always steered away from shows that I wasn’t really a fan of. In part because it requires some attention to detail, but also because nobody wants to come to a site and listen to someone bitch about their favorite show […]
In a completely unsurprising move, ABC has canceled the sci-fi/drama Life on Mars. If the desperate and oddly-placed rescheduling of the hiatus return episode didn’t clue us all in that there were problems afoot, subsequent episodes surely did. What is surprising and hopeful to those who followed the show thus far is that the series […]
“Call me crazy, but child actors were way better back in the ’80s.” — Barney The theme of acting ran throughout the episode tonight on How I Met Your Mother.
