As the year comes to a close it seems only fitting to pay it tribute. So here are some of the highs, lows and in-betweens of the year, in my opinion. The Best Network Decisions of the Year:  – NBC giving new life to Friday Night Lights by striking a deal with Direct TV to […]

Little Mosque: “A Hard Day’s Fight”
  Kelly Bedard

There was nothing I didn’t like about the latest episode of Little Mosque on the Prairie. Let’s start with the small stuff: The B story involving Baber teaching at Layla’s school was both funny and sweet. Baber becoming the cool teacher was an inspired writing choice. It would have been so easy to have the […]

The women, in particular, stand out (something that is not usually the case with SNL, with a few notable exceptions). Mad TV is kind […]

While watching a recent episode of Privileged, in which the billionaire-playboy-next-door-turned-perfect-boyfriend won the heart of our heroine while her sweet and supportive best friend settled for the next best thing, I began to wonder: With so many shows serving up both the exemplary good guy and the brooding bad boy, is there some sort of pattern […]

This Week’s Big Bang Theory and the Christmas Episode Hypothesis

This week’s BBT featured a guest spot by none other than Michael Trucco. Don’t know who he is? You clearly haven’t been doing your nerdy homework. Trucco is none other than dream-worthy sometimes-Starbuck-love-interest Samuel Anders from Battlestar Galactica. And that’s a big deal for a lot of nerds, from me to Dwight Schrute. Here he […]
