I think this week’s episodes of So You Think You Can Dance deserve applause. After last week’s disappointing turn and the uninspiring auditions that proceeded it I was sure that this would be the year I didn’t care. I liked one couple (Twitch and Kherington) and admired one other (Joshua and Katee) but that was […]

I couldn’t have been more excited for the first week of the real competition on So You Think You Can Dance. There are only so many trannies with bad lipstick and “I pulled a muscle” sob stories you can watch before you’re aching for the top 20. I’ve been wishing for the start of the […]

Here’s the thing, Judd Apatow’s high school comedy Freaks and Geeks is a good show. It’s cited as one of the greats among the “brilliant but cancelled” elite, sparked a ton of young actors’ Hollywood careers and is considered one of the most painfully accurate portrayals of high school life ever on television. It has […]
Ladies and gentlemen, that is how it is done. FRIENDSHIP: Barney can womanize, gamble, cheat and manipulate all he wants and will always remain a sympathetic character because the audience has always known (and he proved in this week’s episode) that he would scale mountains for his friends. and LOVE: Neil Patrick Harris didn’t say […]
