… Perhaps not all of them. Yesterday, I reported that ABC seemed to be dropping Pushing Daisies and Dirty Sexy Money. Unfortunately, it still seems to be the case, according to the Futon Critic’s winter schedule that they published today. OK, mourn Pushing Daisies and Dirty Sexy Money; I’m with you, at least on the […]
(Season 12, Episode 13) Maybe it was intentional of Parker and Stone to make an episode that parodied High School Musical, then, at the same time, poke fun of people who act like sheep. Isn’t that the thing to do these days, make fun of High School Musical? SNL did it a couple of weeks […]
Great news for fans of George R. R. Martin’s Song of Fire and Ice fantasy novel series. HBO had purchased the rights to make the series into a TV show (under the name of the first novel, A Game of Thrones) about a year ago, but all the buzz faded quickly. However, Martin himself announced […]

You can finder her discussing America’s Next Top Model (among other things that are important to her) on her personal blog. Business suits and football The two just don’t […]
(Season 1, Episode 10) Here’s the thing about games people play: holy crap, they are boring. I have such a weird relationship with this show. Last week, I was talking about how I was really starting to like it, but this week… ugh. There was absolutely nothing going on. The writers continued to make Naomi […]
It’s all up to you. If you are a fan of Jim Henson’s unique monster puppets, The Muppet Show or Sesame Street, then these little tidbits are going to appeal to you. Heck, you might just make someone’s Christmas. First thing’s first — hop on over to The Muppet Whatnot Workshop at FAO Schwarz, and […]
(Season 1, Episode 7) Well, it looks like things are starting to come together on the set of Fringe. It’s interesting that in the “What has come before” recap segment that started the show they pretty much only covered what happened in the pilot. I guess everything between then and now has been completely disposable. […]
(Season 1, Episode 6) “So you come from carny folk? It’s all beginning to make sense now.” – Teresa, to Jane I’ve been wondering whether or not I like Patrick Jane as part of a team or if I want to see him on his own, solving cases himself. Do I like him helping other […]
(Season 7, Episode 11) Here we are, down to the final few episodes of the series. (The series! Crap!) This was the final episode sent out on screener disc to us press folks, while a bunch of lucky bastards got to head out to private screenings of the final two. If only I lived in […]
(Season 5, Episode 7) The fun I was missing in last week’s mean-spirited episode came at me with a vengeance tonight. Yay! There were so many quotes that I couldn’t even get them all down (but after the jump you’ll get to read most of ‘em!). We had relationships explored, an interesting case of the […]
