(Season 4, Episode 16 – “Darnell Outed, Part 2″) It’s just a plain fact that one of the funniest shows on television right now is My Name is Earl. Everything about it is practically perfect: from the writing, to the direction, to the casting. The whole cast is absolutely wonderful, but for me (sorry Randy […]
My life was in flux during the 1990s. Fresh out of college, I ended up working in an office (but knew I was destined for greatness), and my husband and I wandered gypsy-like between homes while we were building our own high on a hill overlooking Lake Michigan. One of those places was his grandparents’ […]
(Season 15, Episode 13 – “Love is a Battlefield”) After the unusual weirdness of last week’s episode we returned to the normal weirdness of the day-to-day activities of County General’s ER. And it was a jam-packed episode featuring some resolutions to Neela’s dreams, meatier roles for Grady and Daria, a jealous Sam, and an appearance by […]
(Season 2, Episode 10 – “Do No Harm”) Last we saw exiled super-spy Michael Westen, he was leaping clear of his exploding front door. After a four-month hiatus, Burn Notice returned last night with a proverbial bang. Don’t fret, Mike is fine, bruised and battered, but fine nonetheless. Good buddy Sam was there to dust […]
(Season 4, Episode 12 – “Criss Angel is a Douche Bag”) Let me just kick this review off by saying: Best. Episode. Title. Ever. But title aside, I knew we were in for a treat when I found out Barry Bostwick was guest starring in this week’s Supernatural as a washed up magician who suddenly […]
(Season 3, Episode 9 – “Retreat to Move Forward”) Another episode devoid of guest stars, and another episode full of laughs. Even Salma Hayek got the week off in this installment, but I thought it was one of the stronger episodes of the season. It had all the right elements — Jack and Liz being […]
(Season 2, Episode 3 – “I Knew Your Pig”) Another mind-bending episode, where everyone seems to be lying about something. They should start cross-promoting this with House’s “Everyone Lies” theme. Let’s see… Claire wants Daniel to tell her the truth. Instead, he says, “I had nothing to do with this.” Lies, all lies. We saw […]
Guess what, American Idol. There are people all over this great country and there are all kinds of colloquialisms out there. Some might call it local flavor, but it’s all America so you’d do well to do a little bit of homework before you smear a guy’s name across national television. For those who were […]
(Season 21, Episode 3 – “The BFF-O-Meter”) Things are beginning to heat-up inside Brooklyn manor. Relationships are forming, flirtations are flying and Chet is still a virgin. I have to admit, despite my past reservations, I am beginning to like this cast of eight strangers. Yeah, they’re still whiny and preachy, but they do have […]
Maybe I’m being too protective of my favorite bunch o’ geeks. This is the second time that a character I don’t care for has all of a sudden been thrust into the limelight without rhyme or reason. The first one was the doctor (who seemed so un-doctor-esque) who became Leonard’s love sex interest, then vanished. […]
