My love for the redeemable bad boy has been well chronicled on this site, and with my ever-abiding and increasing love for Glee‘s Puck and HIMYM‘s Barney as continuing proof, I suppose it hasn’t really ended.

But while Private Practice inducing little more than eye-rolling, 90210 sometimes makes me care about its characters. So while I didn’t care about Addison’s struggles with her […]
The next season the The Amazing Race is currently filming. While CBS remains quiet about the cast and claims they won’t be announcing the new teams for a while, many fans are already snapping photos of the teams which they’re encountering at airports. And one couple just so happens to be Jeff and Jordan from […]
