The New York Yankees have been a thorn in the side for the Toronto Blue Jay’s for quite some time. This past weekend the Jay’s overcame the drought with a 2-1 series. While just a mid season game, the team had even more cause to celebrate the hard-earned win. August 29, 2012 marked the start […]

From 1999-2004 HBO was ahead of the curve with a show about four women in their late 30s, and 40s who dated, talked about sex, ate cake, and did it all.  Sex and the City got people saying, “I’m a Carrie” or “I’m a Samantha” In the 2011-2012 television season HBO boldly put out three […]

 

It was with great trepidation that I agreed to review Israela Margalit’s Get Me A Guy.

StageWorks Toronto is an incredibly ambitious company, especially when you consider that they’re really a community theatre organization (mixing new theatre grads with part-time performers, I’m pretty sure all un-paid). Year after year they choose an interesting, contemporary and thematically challenging musical and mount a full-scale production, never shying away from a hard vocal score. […]

The sun was shining. The alcohol was flowing. The atmosphere was electric. And America put on a show for the rest of the world to see. As simple as that opening headline may sound, it perfectly sums up my weekend spent in Long Beach at the 2014 Asics World Series of Beach Volleyball. I got […]

 

“Gladys” was a very disturbing episode of The Leftovers. It started out with Gladys, a member of the Guilty Remnant, being stoned to death. It was absolutely horrific and ended with Gladys actually speaking and begging for her life. Gladys wasn’t the only member of the Guilty Remnant to speak though. After Patti started to […]
