I watched the first episode of Party Down in an almost perfunctory manner. I mean, come on, it was by the guy who made Veronica Mars, and had promised guest stars that ranged from George Takeii to Rick Fox to Kristen Bell. And I really enjoyed that first episode, but I’m an inherently lazy creature […]

 

The spinoff’s inaugural season was so unbalanced, so ridiculous and so annoyingly typical that I can barely believe that I watch it. That said, the new 90210boasts a few characters that are worth returning for, and so I do. The most credit has to go to the adorable Tristan Wilds, an actor of a calibre […]

My Boys: Quote of the Season

Brendan: Terminator, Battlestar Gallactica, Terminator 2… history teaches us that man always wins out in the end. Kenny: You know that’s not history right? Brendan: Only history that matters!

Obsessions Remembered
 

With Saturday’s return of Pushing Daisies, I realized that I’d forgotten how much I love that show. With an Olive-centric episode, a fun mystery of the week and a couple great guest stars, the only thing I didn’t like about the first episode of the last run of Pushing Daisies was that it was the first […]

Frankly, we couldn’t be less interested in the Frats and Sororities on campus, so why spend […]

Season Wrap Up: One Tree Hill

With recent casting news indicating the exit of central couple Lucas and Peyton (Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton) from the show, the perpetual shark-jumping CW series will head into its 7th season without its main stars. A risky move indeed, but I have a […]

So You Think You Can Dance season 5 is off with a bang with returning favourites. In the grand tradition of Hok and Twitch (who made the top 20 as fan favourites after being cut the previous season), a favourite of mine from last season, Evan Kasprzak is back this year with his brother Ryan to […]

I’m just going to go ahead right now and declare Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian (along with Star Trek) my favourite of the year so far. Full of fun, life, a stellar cast, good effects and flat-out good writing, both movies soared beyond my wildest expectations. But Night at the Museum, […]
