I frickin’ love this time of year. In New England, the air is crisp, the leaves are changing and — at least for old farts like me — I don’t have that pain-in-the-ass thing called “school” to tie my stomach up in knots anymore (ignore me kids — stay in school!) With this time of […]
Things just don’t look good for the Connors. I mentioned in our ratings column that last week’s Terminator:TSCC didn’t do well. This week, it got worse. The show dropped another 400,000 viewers, along with another tenth in the demo, coming in at 5.4 million viewers and a 2.1. It’s dangerously close to being surpassed by […]
Welcome to my comfy couch where I talk about TV shows which aren’t quite in the mainstream. Addict that I am, I give a lot of shows a try. Some I really enjoy, some I put in my “feh” file, and with others I’m lukewarm. The cable stations have really been producing a lot of […]
I know, I know — I’ve got to stop comparing the books to the TV series. Heck, if everyone did that, no one would be watching Dexter, one of the best shows to hit the airwaves in a long while. But I digress… When I first heard that the Southern Vampire Mysteries series by Charlaine […]
Seems like there’s a new fad in Hollywood – doing a TV show. Many big names are transitioning to the small screen for weekly series: there’s Glenn Close in Damages, Alec Baldwin on 30 Rock, Christian Slater is doing My Own Worst Enemy now, Dennis Hopper is in Starz’s first series Crash, and before him […]
(Season 4, Episode 3) After two weeks that gave us a look at what the future holds for the Winchester boys, it’s time to look back at the past. We’ll be traveling back in time to Lawrence, Kansas, circa 1973. There, we’ll run into young Mary (Amy Gumenick) and John (Matt Cohen). If that’s not […]
Hey, Survivor Fans! Click through this post to the second page to join the live-blogging party.
(Season 17, Episode 3) I haven’t watched much Survivor over the years, so it was fun for me tonight, watching it as a relative newbie. If you haven’t yet checked out my live-blog, go read our comments as the show was airing. My friend, Kris, has watched the show since it began 17 seasons ago, so it’s great to […]
Despite the fact I haven’t bought one in several years, I am an admitted comic book geek. Have been one since I was just a wee little booger of a lad. I was particularly interested in the heroes from DC Comics. It was probably the influence of The Super Friends and repeats of the live-action […]
Let’s face it: U.S. writers and networks are plumb out of original ideas. The Office; The Ex List; American Idol (Pop Idol). And there’s more, for sure, all re-tooled for U.S. audiences. Not that this is necessarily a bad thing, mind you. At least for us viewers. Life on Mars is another show that grew […]
