NBC’s 2010 Upfront Announcements

NBC did their upfront presentation today and there were very few surprises after all the pickup/cancellation news that’s been leaked this week. I do have to say though, the new season looks very promising from my end. The peacock network is working overtime to fill all those 10pm spots they gave away last season and […]

NBC Next Season… so far

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the end of an era. A welcome end, in my procedural-averse opinion but the end of one nonetheless. After 20 seasons and 453 episodes, TV’s second longest-running drama of all time will finally end this year; Law & Order is no more.   NBC will be announcing its full fall […]

 

As an unabashed fan of both bad action films and Joel McHale’s biceps, this week’s episode of Communitywas always going to be a hit with me. However, the show really knocked it out of the park by anchoring it in the kind of plot-moving emotional relevance that few shows can pull off with this sort […]

Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked

Oh my goodness. Just when I thought Damon Salvatore’s whole bad-boy-with-just-enough-good-to-make-you-think-maybe-we-shouldn’t-stake-him thing was the hottest act since Logan Echolls first punched out an FBI man and Spike started singing about letting him rest in peace, they upped the awesome factor.   This week’s episode of The Vampire Diaries featured the return of vampire-mama, Isabelle. And […]

In Defense of Faires as Theatre or I just can’t wait for Faire Season For those of us who worship Hugh Laurie for his portrayal of Dr. Gregory House, I’m sure no one even considered for a second missing last week’s episode. For those of you who don’t, I’ll explain. Last week (not this past […]

Thoughts on the Real Celebrity Jeopardy

– The questions are significantly easier, I could answer most of them (something that’s just not true about the regular episodes of Jeopardy). – Though I’m mad at him for beating the adorable (and apparently incredibly competitive) Neil Patrick Harris, I have to say that Cheech Marin is absurdly good at Jeopardy. Which surprised me, […]

 

I just watched last night’s Lost, the episode entitled “The Candidate” and I know I want to write about it. But I can’t for the life of me think what I want to say. I mean,… wow. You read this blog, you know I’m not a Lost fan the way most Lost fans are Lost […]

Welcome Back HIMYM
 

This week’s How I Met Your Mother was the best since its season premiere. Maybe that’s because it got back to the important story of Barney and Robin that the premiere so aptly navigated. Or maybe it was the delightful callbacks to previous episodes that always make loyal fans happy (college Ted, post-Natalie Ted, post-Stella […]
