(Season 2, Episode 7 – “Help!”) If you needed to chose one word that could describe this protracted season of Eli Stone it would be ‘change’. Since the first minute of the first hour of the second season, the lives of all of the show’s major players have changed in so many ways. Whether it […]
When we started CliqueClack, we wanted to do what we could to stand out as being different; we didn’t want to give you all the same-old same-old. At the same time, though, we wanted to give you all what you want to see more of, which is why we’ve stuck with episode reviews, something we […]
(Season 5, Episodes 12/13 – “Made in China/Last Call” – Series Finale) A day late maybe, but not a dollar short if Denny Crane has anything to say about it. We could just get married. The gang pulled out almost all the stops on this final run through Crane, Poole & Schmidt. With two episodes […]
Spotlight Show of the Night Little Spirit: Christmas in New York (NBC, 8:00 p.m./7:00 p.m. Central) – Sure we all love all those classic Christmas specials, and now that we have 7500 different channels they’re all on the air every year. So it’s always exciting when there’s actually a new Christmas special. And this one […]
(Season 5, Episode 11 – “Joy to the World”) It’s so nice that Foreman, after five seasons and a couple of half-hearted appearances by dates, finally got it on with Thirteen! I was wondering if that’s where they were going with the relationship ever since the episode in which Foreman got so upset about Thirteen’s […]
As you probably know by now, the bright bulbs over at NBC have decided to give up on programming the 10 PM slot with new scripted shows. Instead, they will be giving Jay Leno, a man that they tried to kick off of the network not too long ago, a five-night-a-week gig during that time […]
Today’s guest clacker is Paul William Tenny, a frequent commenter here who runs a website called The Media Pundit, covering movies, TV, and other entertainment subjects. I’m no television historian, but as a keen observer of emerging trends, the thing that piques my interest these days isn’t web-to-television series like Sanctuary or Quarterlife, or the […]
There’s more to TV than television. Every year — heck, every month — there are more new Internet-only shows popping up online and in podcasts, and existing shows expanding their worlds in the same way. Here are some notable things going on in the world of webisodes … Rob Corddry’s Children’s Hospital Funnyman Rob Coddry’s […]
Alright, alright, it’s probably way too early for this post, and it’s most likely an overstatement, but I can’t help thinking that network TV as we know it is in critical condition. With the latest news that NBC is giving up on the ten o’clock hour giving Jay Leno a nightly show at 10 PM, […]
(Season 1, Episode 2 – “The Homecoming Job”) As I said in my CliqueClack preview of Leverage earlier this month, I love this show, and the second episode played out so nicely. It may have not had the big bang of the premiere (although it was close!), but we learned more about the characters, and […]
