(Season 5, Episode 8 – “City on Fire”) “Putting a wall around your heart doesn’t protect you. It just keeps people out. I learned that the hard way.” – Susan to Julie A lot happened in this episode, and it harked back to the glory days of season one. My thoughts: Gaby really showed a […]
It’s hard to avoid hearing about Hannah Montana these days. The thing is, I’ve never seen anything longer than ten seconds of the show, and that was a result of catching commercials for it. The fan base for anything having to do with the show is staggering. So, if you’re one of those millions of […]
Just think about it … in about two months we’ll be mocking the talentless in the American Idol auditions. There’s certain to be a diamond or two in the rough, but I’m sure we’ll have plenty of targets for ridicule. Right now most of the media attention hoopla is on this season’s Dancing With the […]
Did you know Adult Swim was putting on a second episode of Robot Chicken Star Wars? I’m not sure many people knew, because I sorta stumbled onto it while flipping through my DVR guide the other night. Not everything clicked with me, but there were some definite highlights: Stormtrooper’s Take Your Daughter to Work Day […]
David Huberman is this week’s commenter-turned-poster. David is a 30-something professional in the Internet backbone engineering world who watches way too much television. You can usually find him writing about fine art, politics, and horse racing over on his personal blog. It’s time for FOX to add more time “Tonight on FOX, it’s an all […]

It’s amazing that the goings-on in this episode would lead to the boys basically putting their tails between their legs and […]
(Season 3, Episode 8 – “The Damage A Man Can Do”) The student becomes the teacher. We’ve been seeing, for several episodes now, Miguel prodding Dexter for more information into his dark ways. And all along the way, Harry is that angel (or devil) on Dexter’s shoulder, the former teacher seeing his student grow up […]
“I don’t know what that means.” – Shane tries to figure out how to rob a safe on The Shield Unlike most dramas, The Shield doesn’t really give you a whole lot of relief from the tension. Watching an episode is kind of like being punched over and over again. So after seven seasons, it […]
5:00p/4:00 Central Hey, The CW’s 4Real is M.I.A. tonight. Get it? Because they feature hip-hop artist M.I.A. heading to Liberia to meet the woman who founded a youth organization trying to bring some hope and happiness to the embattled children of the region. 7:00p/6:00 Central While CBS is bringing you President-Elect Obama’s first interview since […]
(Season 34, Episode 8) I will admit that my hopes were high this week. Paul Rudd is a funny dude, and I was hoping that SNL would come through with some great political lampooning. Boy was I disappointed. I don’t know if I was just in the wrong frame of mind to watch SNL, but […]
