As I was watching the New Year’s Day Iron Chef America marathon this week something struck me: I haven’t seen Mario Batali cook for a very long time. It’s true that he and the Food Network had a bit of a breakup back in 2007, but at the time the Food Network said that he […]
Slime. That green, goopy substance that has become a mascot of sorts for the cable network Nickelodeon. Gallons and gallons of the stuff have been dropped on both regular people and celebrities for nearly two decades now. The question that many newer fans of this substance may ask is: where did the slime originate? Well, […]
(Season 5, Episode 19 – “Vegas”) With the next to last episode of a series, you would be within reason to expect that this is where the rubber meets the road. Any time that needed to be filled has been, and now the team back at HQ can settle in to wrap up the series. […]
I fondly remember my movie-going days, and not just because of the tasty popcorn. I enjoyed two-hour feature films: the action, the special effects, even the — gasp! — chick flicks. Visiting the theater slowly morphed into a love affair with Netflix, and feature films were a twice-weekly occurrence in our household. Then I discovered […]
(Season one, Episodes 13-17) Only five more episodes until the first season ends? Say it isn’t so! Supernatural is some of the best fun on TV; I’m so glad I decided to give this series a chance. Some huge things happened in these five episodes I recently watched. They are slowly moving us toward the […]

Ivey West is back Guest-clacking for us again…. First, I guess I should soundly state for the record that this script review will include spoilers. Lots of them. Oodles in fact. If that’s something you have a problem with, I would suggest scrolling down to the next post. Hopefully, it won’t be another bashing How […]
Brothers and sisters, I have seen the future … and it is good. You’ve probably seen the reviews of the season five premiere all over the interwebs over the past few days. I was also lucky enough get to see the first two episodes of the upcoming season. I don’t want to spoil anything, but […]
If you can remember as far back as the beginning of 2008 — I know it’s hard, but try — the striking members of the Writers Guild of America touted the fact that they were starting their very own website. The site was called strike.tv and it was supposed to feature a number of “webisode” […]
During breaks from The Twilight Zone Marathon, I admit I tuned in to watch Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve ’09. I’m not proud of it, but there you have it. Every year, I think, hey, it might be fun to be in Times Square some New Year’s Eve. But then I watch the show […]
