Desperate Housewivesthis week provided a couple wonderful blasts from the past. First we were treated to Six Feet Under‘s Ruth Fisher (Frances Conroy) guest starring as Carlos’ “enthusiastic” massage client. Then came the best part of the evening (Lynette and Tom’s heartfelt rehearsal space encounter aside), seeing Mrs. Landingham and Debbie Fiderer (Mrs. Landingham’s replacement) playing […]
This week’s Big Bang Theorywas, like fan favourite Dr. Sheldon Cooper, genius. When a new grad student, Ramona, takes a liking to Sheldon, he embraces the idea of someone fawning over him, until it gets to a point where he needs to invoke something called “the godzilla clause” to get rid of her. The brilliant […]
OBSESSIONS OF THE WEEK BARACK OBAMA, The Presidential Election and The American People. I’m the proudest Canadian you will ever find, at least in Boston. But last night I found myself insanely jealous of my American friends. Not only was their election a celebration the scale of which Canada has never seen, but they now have […]

And while reality often disappoints, I’ve been able to spend years alongside the honorable heroes, charming leaders and valiant world servants of television. But as of tonight, as of this very […]
Last night Samantha Newly met the perfect man. He’s kind, funny, handsome, rich, caring, charming and every good adjective there is. He runs a charity, cares about humanity AND the planet. He didn’t lose interest after she slept with him, didn’t care when she said something stupid and didn’t judge her crazy mother. He’s perfect. […]
My ode may prove a bit too long and some, I’m sure, will think I’m wrong, but I feel I must do my part to show how Coop has touched my heart. In Private Practice season one, Dr. Coop was lots of fun. To Violet Turner, his best friend, he’d be loyal to the end. […]
