True Beauty: A Study in Ugliness
  Kelly Bedard

10 “beautiful” people, 2 judges whom I’ve never heard of, 1 host/judge who closely resembles a talent-less Summer Glau, a slew of pointless beauty competitions and a ton of inconclusive “true beauty” tests. And the result? Incomparable ugliness. The contestants themselves, who are supposed to be 10 of the most beautiful people in America, range […]

Privileged=Happiness… but

Will is even more wonderful than I thought. I like that his family is allowed to function as a complete and loving family without any of the dysfunction that television convention would like to place on them because of their net worth. I love that he has his flaws and often gives Megan bad advice, […]

“Totally” -Ted “Awesome” -Barney The misadventures at “Puzzle”, the chronology twist, the rare and wonderful pairing of sentimental Marshall with realist Robin, the hilarious bar montage, the return of Ranjit and an ending that’ll go down in How I Met Your Mother history; this episode has officially become one of my favourites of the series.

United States of Tara, a half hour comedy about a woman with multiple personality disorder, is incredibly promising. The first episode was funny and engaging and absolutely unique. I’m hoping the show proves unsinkable, and the evidence is on my […]

Maybe I was in some sort of mood but tonight’s Desperate Housewiveswas a 5 Kleenex event. In the series’ 100th episode, co-written by series creator Marc Cherry, guest star Beau Bridges plays Eli Scuggs, the local handyman, who dies as the episode begins. For the 43 minutes that follow, Gabrielle, Bree, Lynette and Susan plan […]

If I’ve learned anything from my experiences with The OC, Lost, Grey’s Anatomy and Chuck, it’s that sometimes a show that you think you’ll never be into can turn into something you really enjoy. I gave all those series a second chance that resulted in serious bandwagon jumping, so it was only appropriate that I […]
