Everybody has a favorite TV show from their past, and our reasons for loving them are personal. Be it Lost in Space, Dynasty or even Room 222, certain shows stick with us forever. For me, that show is The Odd Couple. For those of you have been living in a cave, the show is based […]
I must not be, because the show has been enough of a hit to run for four seasons. So why has NBC been treating this fan favorite like dirt? I’ll give you a clue: they’re either douchebags, or idiots, or both. First, they push Medium back to a midseason premiere in favor of Christian Slater’s […]
