Heroes chat is back! Sorry about the unexpected absence, but I had to move a few states away on very short notice (now those coppers will never find me, see…), so I’ve spent the past two weeks surrounded by boxes and contemplating suicide. But now everything’s okay! And we’ve got a new episode of Heroes! […]
I told you it was coming back. I prepared you, enthralled you … I even whetted your appetite for a taste of Don Don (Don Jr.). But you didn’t watch. I know you didn’t. How do I know, you ask? Because not a single one of you is looking me in the eye right now. […]
I used to be a huge fan of The Apprentice back when the show was new and fresh. I’ve never been a big fan of Donald Trump, but I enjoyed the concept and the candidates. But then the show became more predictable and the candidates a bit more iffy. George and Caroline left and the […]
This week was kind of light as far as good quotes were concerned, since a lot of our favorite shows were on hiatus. The plus side is that what we lack in quantity, we make up for in interesting shows — like the World Skeleton Championships, for instance (I don’t even know what that means!). […]
It was a bit of a strange week for ratings. The Academy Awards (36.31m/12) sent most of the Sunday lineup into repeats. And the Obama address to Congress mixed things up on Tuesday, shifting Idol to Wednesday and Thursday. That, of course, had a ripple effect throughout the ratings. Elsewhere, the new FOX Friday suffered […]
It’s become abundantly clear that Charles Widmore and Ben Linus are at the heart of the larger story of Lost. Ever since he was going by the name of Henry Gale, Ben has been telling just about anyone who would listen that he’s one of the “good guys.” We have seen far less of Charles […]
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 […]
Dear TV viewers (yes, all of you), I don’t ask a lot of you. Really, I don’t. For the most part, I’m perfectly happy to let you watch whatever you like. For some reason you seem to be obsessed with watching “stars” ball room dance. That’s cool with me. I don’t have a problem with […]
Lost? Check out my first installment in this great debate, that compares the main characters and the best friends of Chuck and Reaper! The other go-to guy: Casey vs. Ben: It’s impossible to discuss John Casey, Buy More sales associate, without mentioning Major John Casey of the NSA. Of course, both are played by Adam […]
If it wasn’t for the fact that I usually have nothing else to watch at 9 PM on Friday night — that is, nothing that’s not already sitting on my DVR on in a Netflix envelope — I’ll continue to watch Dollhouse. So far the show’s a big disappointment, and what doesn’t help at all […]
