Grey’s Anatomy was great for the second week in a row. Some really great Sloan stuff, awesome Bailey-ness, some good Callie/Hahn, long-awaited spectacular Christina story (brilliant Sandra Oh acting and the writers finally acknowledge that Preston Burke was once a part of the show), an incredibly touching patient story, tolerable Mer-Der scenes, some great Alex […]
Last night there was a Tivo scene. It was one of those scenes that you save forever on your PVR or your DVR or your Tivo or whatever fancy TV contraption you have. It was a scene that you play over and over again. It was a scene that makes you buy the DVD box set just […]
Contrary to popular opinion, I am, at times, fallible. One of these failures occurred a couple hours ago when I posted a list of my favourite TV opening credit sequences and failed to include one show that features an opening credit sequence that is both original and always entertaining.

Warner Brothers has announced the creation of a new website (thewb.com) where viewers will be able to watch episodes of their favourite classic WB shows for free right on their computers. This uber TV fan, for one, can’t wait to get her hands on those unreleased on DVD seasons of Everwood and Jack & Bobby. Hopefully […]
Adam? well that was anticlimactic. As has become the standard for the notoriously unfair reality show, one of the least interesting and/or deserving houseguests wins the entire game. The only difference between this and previous finales was that the jurors demonstrated more pettiness, less class and less thoughtfulness than any jury I can remember. As […]
The most recent episodes of mediocre classic sitcom Back to You have been a return to the best the show can be. After post-strike changes that resulted in the loss of the weather girl Montana (played by Studio 60’s Ayda Field), and the recasting of Chuck and Kelly’s daughter Gracie (from spunky and smart to cute […]
