He’s Worth the Hour and Half
 

Saturday Night Live is a tedious show to watch. Its lack of consistency often creates lackluster shows, with maybe a funny skit here or there. However, despite the script of the sketch or the character he plays, Bill Hader makes watching Saturday Night Live hilarious. To his voice, facial gestures, and timing in his skits, […]

The Good and Bad of Jim and Pam’s Wedding

This week’s episode of The Office was an event; the wedding that fans and characters alike have been waiting for for years. In pleasing, disappointing and appropriate ways, the episode was perhaps the perfect one to celebrate the series’ history and identity.

Dollhouse Returns
 

Wait…Dollhouse premiered last night? That was my reaction this morning when I read an article about last night’s horrible ratings. So I immediately watched the episode (feeling horribly guilty that I too missed out on the premiere). Tonight’s episode has two great guest stars: Jamie Bamber (BSG!) plus Alexis Denisof! Amazing. But really Alexis was […]
