Season Wrap Up: How I Met Your Mother

*CAUTION, SPOILERS AHEAD* Tonight’s season finale of How I Met Your Mother was everything the show is and has been for 4 seasons now. It was pretty funny, it was full of heart and it had it’s flaws. Sure parts of it were silly and sure it’s incredibly frustrating how Ted calls everything that happens […]

Fox Wants Everyone to Dance (and Sing) !

NEWS: Fox has made the (questionable) decision to air season 6 of beloved summer smash So You Think You Can Dance right after season 5 ends in the fall. The decision, no doubt, is their attempt to make their Idol-free fall months more Idol-audience friendly and put up a bit of a fight against the […]

My Current Actor Obsession

25-year-old South African actor Adhir Kalyan was the best thing about the best new (and cancelled) show of the 2007-2008 TV season, Aliens in America.

*CAUTION, SPOILERS AHEAD*   Going into this week’s fifth season finale, the producers of Lostpromised the audience a death that would shake us to the core the way the loss of Charlie did. And, just like almost every promise of grandeur handed down by the Darlton that be, once again this proved to be a […]

 

I haven’t been this proud of the networks in a really long time. Not only does the notorious FOX seem determined to undercut its reputation as the least supportive network for intelligent programming (see their miraculous second season pickup for Dollhouse and the intense promotional power they’re putting behind Glee), but the alphabet network (ABC) […]

And Speaking of Joy…
 

God, I hope I’m not jumping the gun on this, because being told the following and then having it taken away from me might be too much to bear, but…   DOLLHOUSE IS RENEWED! That’s right, the terminally lowly-viewed, network-interfered, high-concept, twisty drama about what makes a human being is going to be back, boys […]
