Grey’s Anatomy has had its spectacular moments, characters, and story lines. This show, also, has had its dull moments. However, through it all there is one character that keeps me tuning back. She is strong. She is frank. She is caring. She knows what she is doing. This character is Dr. Miranda Bailey. I absolutely […]

 

This week, Grey’s Anatomy turned 100… in style. They celebrated with big drama, big trauma, balloons, flowers, sex and wedding cake. But something was burried in all the hoopla, my favourite stuff in fact. The episode previous, episode 99, was small. It was about family and forgiveness and some flimsy metaphor about “saying you’re sorry”. […]

“The Critic in the Cabernet” or Bones: Sex Watch ’09

I’m as loyal a Bones viewer as any, having watched it since it’s premier four years ago, and loved nearly every minute of it, but I’ll be the first to admit the show is flawed.

Don’t Read this if you haven’t seen this week’s episode and/or if you have mercifully avoided spoilers until this point. There, you’ve been adequately warned. In this […]

Where Will it Go?
 

I love The Office. I used to be able to say it was one of my favorite shows. And although it’s not one of my favorites anymore, I do like some of the things the writers are doing. First off, Pam is no longer just the receptionist. Jenna Fischer is a dynamic actress (Blades of […]

My TV Question of the Day

Why Can’t Anyone on The Amazing Race Swim? This week they had to endure a foot massage and then swim a 400m relay in a clean, standard length pool- explain to me why this is so hard!

 

After four straight episodes of unadulterated awesomeness, the Chuck (hopefully) season finale found itself with a heaping helping of high expectations and lingering plot threads needing to be tied up. So how’d it fair? Well… that’s a complicated question. The first half of the episode featured an Intersect-less Chuck attempting to get through Ellie’s wedding, […]
