Salty Celery?
 

Salty celery was the downfall of my favourite chef this week on Top Chef. Up against the Hosea the mediocre and Leah, who is not only horribly unpleasant but also can’t seem to cook anything well, Jamie was sent home because her celery over-reduced and was left too salty. Worst decision ever! Padma and Tom […]

Goodbye Charlie, I’ll Always Love You

…even if Megan can’t. This week’s Privileged was, despite being a wonderful episode, really really sad. This marked Michael Cassidy’s last episode as the sweetest man alive, Megan’s best friend Charlie.Before he left to go to school in California, Charlie finally confessed his love to Megan, and she promptly broke his heart. And while I […]

Every show, even the terrible ones, has at least one character who’s worth your time. Whether they’re the only one to make you laugh, the only one who’s remotely sane or the only one who you can relate to, they make the show worth watching. So here’s to the characters that have managed to shine […]

I Pledge Allegiance to the United States of Tara

I haven’t been this excited about so new a show in a very long time. After only 4 episodes United States of Tarahas become one of my absolute favourite things on TV. With every half hour installment I invest more fully in the lives of the characters. As unfamiliar as the central premise of the […]

There was a lot in the episode that was hopelessly idiotic. Falling, once again, into dangerous and […]

Third Time’s the Charm for Chuckles

I tried to watch Chuck when it premiered and then sort of forgot about it. Part way through it’s first season I picked it up again only to redirect my attention towards more captivating series. Then, after the show won accolades from fellow My TVwriter Rachael, I picked up the season one DVD and tried […]

How Do I Loathe Private Practice, Let Me Count the Ways

I hate how selfish Addison is, especially considering that, during her time on Grey’s Anatomy, she was once an incredibly engaging and wonderful character. I hate that every story line involves a moral dilemma or grey area of some sort. I hate that Cooper, one of TV’s most lovable characters, is forced to exist in […]

Charlie Hume
 

In a lovely tribute to his deceased friend and a callback to one of TV’s most emotional moments, Desmond and Penny named their son Charlie, after Charlie Pace who died saving Desmond’s life. The revelation was one of few engaging moments in this week’s installment of the most overrated show on the air: Lost. The other […]
