(Season 1, Episode 10 – “Red Brick and Ivy”) “I’d hate to be a state’s attorney. Jane’s always pulling crap like this but they always win.” – Lisbon So I hope everyone enjoyed this series finale episode of The Mentalist. After what the team pulled in this one, everyone will be arrested and sent to […]
UPDATE: We’ve got the fall 2009-2010 TV show return schedule posted now. This is old stuff! Back in the day — sometime before the turn of the century — the end of the first half of the fall season really didn’t mean too much in the land of television. Yes, some shows left the air […]
(Season 1, Episode 3 – “The Two-Horse Job”) I thoroughly enjoyed the first two episodes of Leverage, and was left with just one nagging little question in the back of my mind. The show is really well done, and a big ol’ ball of fun, but how are they going to keep it from falling into […]
(Season 2, Episode 11 – “Chuck Versus Santa Claus”) Once again, Chuck lives up to all our expectations and surpasses them. What started off as a simple hostage situation at the Buy More became something a lot more dangerous for Chuck, Sarah and Casey. I was pleased that I didn’t see that particular plot turn […]
Spotlight Show of the Night Momma’s Boys (10:00 p.m./9:00 p.m. Central, Series Premiere) – Hey, just because I spotlight it doesn’t mean I think it’s going to be good. I see this as the biggest trainwreck NBC has put on the air in a long time. In fact, it reminds me of something FOX would […]
I’m sure it’s crept up on you like the sneaky voyeuristic hand from Angel, like the drunken teddy bear from Supernatural, like the crap that is Heroes this season. But did you know that tomorrow is the last day that Amazon will guarantee free super-saver shipping to arrive in time for Christmas? Get thee to […]
Some time back, I wrote a piece where I spoke of my dread of the new ABC Family Christmas special, A Miser Brothers’ Christmas, based on the beloved characters from The Year Without a Santa Claus. Based on what I had seen of it, I predicted it would be dreadful. I also promised that if […]
Yes, I’m American, born and bred. I have a warm heart and more Christmas spirit than perhaps Old Saint Nick himself (especially in The Year Without a Santa Claus where he is frustrated and thinks he needs a vacation; you work one night a year, dude — suck it up!) So how, you ask, how […]
Today’s guest clacker is Kelly Bedard, who’s guest clacked for us once before. If there’s one thing that I took away from last week’s Private Practice (other than the urge to vomit after that horrendous Violet/Pete hookup), it was a sense of nostalgia for the quality teen programming of yesteryear. Week after week, Chris Lowell’s […]
(Season 3, Episode 13 – “Chapter 13: Dual”) The thing about tense situations in Heroes is that they kind of don’t matter. For instance, in tonight’s episode, nearly everyone’s life was in danger at some point in the episode. Since it’s Heroes though, even if they do die, it doesn’t necessarily matter, since no one […]
