Lost’s New Season- poster predictions

With the new posters for Lost’s 5th season spreading like wildfire over the Internet (AICN, The TV Addict, Dans Media Digest), there are a few things that really need contemplation.   1) Why does the above poster exclude original castaways Jin, Claire and Michael but include freighter folk Charlotte, Miles and Farraday when the other […]

The First of a 2 Part Privileged

So apparently Rina Mimoun has a fear that makes Megan’s fear of lulls sound rational. Ms. Mimoun (Privileged’s showrunner) is apparently deathly afraid of Sam&Diane-syndrome. Based on the idea that ‘will they or won’t they’ tension is a lot more interesting than an actual relationship, the term refers to Cheers’ infamous “opposites attract” couple and […]

 

I’m watching Mad Menseason 1 on DVD and Pete is bothering me even more than his slimy character is supposed to.  Now I’ve finally figured out why. Pete Campbell is played by Vincent Kartheiser, the actor behind the worst character ever written by Joss Whedon (Connor on Angel). Connor was whiny, rash and violent as well […]

EW’s Hits and Misses

Don’t let your screw up end your relationship. Fight god dammit, fight. And […]

Why Grey’s Why?
 

This week’s Grey’s Anatomywas stupid. That’s what it was. It was stupid people doing stupid things for stupid reasons and giving stupid explanations for them. Let’s start with the stupid things that the characters did. -Lexipedia and her band of merry moronic intern followers. What gives you the idea that cutting yourselves open for the […]

 

First of all let me beg your forgiveness for the impossibly bad pun in that title. Now, on to business. Tonight was a night full of FRIENDS (the 90s NBC sitcom, in case you didn’t catch on). Jennifer Aniston’s highly anticipated guest appearance on 30 Rock was pretty funny and FRIENDS references were everywhere (the […]

NBC claims a few more lives
 

I’m sad to report the cancellation of My Own Worst Enemy. I’ll admit, I wasn’t watching. Though I really liked the first 2 episodes, My Own Worst Enemy inexplicably became the show that I put off watching and never got around to. I still haven’t seen the rest of the episodes. Despite my own failings, […]
