So far, NBC’s Thursday Night Lineup is 2 for 2. The Officewas pretty kickbutt as well. Let’s start with the A story: the surplus. The cold open was hilarious, extra Oscar screen time is always appreciated. Then the war between the pro-chairs and the pro-copiers was fantastic. It was fun to see Jim and Pam […]

30 Rock this week could not have been better. This season has been consistently pretty funny but it’s episodes like this that remind me why the Emmys always go Tina Fey’s way.

Sadly I will not be able to report on the finale until late December but I’ll […]
While back in Toronto this week I’ve been working on catching up on So You Think You Can Dance Canada. I’ve gotten through 2 more weeks, through the eliminations of Tamina and Joey, leaving 14 dancers on the stage. My current opinions are that… -I underestimated Natalli. Not only is she a better dancer than […]
