Another late week for Obsessions

Fred Armisen on SNL. His Obama impression is dead on and his “political comedian” Nicholas Fehn is perhaps my favourite character on the show. SNL repeats- the perfect summer solution.   Dominic Cooper. Not only is he the star of The History Boys (one of my all-time favourite movies) but with Mamma Mia, Dom Cooper […]

Dear America, …WTF!!!
 

So You Think You Can Dance results show, Thursday July 24. All I will say is 100% right on the girls (Comfort gone, Courtney in the bottom 2), 99.9% wrong on the guys. That .1% is for keeping Twitch but that in no way makes up for kicking off the best dancer on the show […]

SYTYCD Top 8: what show are the judges watching?

Don’t get me wrong, the show was great again this week. But is it just me or are the judges wrong a lot this year? I thought that disco routine (like almost all disco routines) was horrible and they praised the hell out of it. The lyrical hip hop was the first lyrical hip hop […]

My Boys: making mondays my favourite day

I’ve said it before but I just watched the latest installment of the show that is almost single-handedly (alongside So You Think You Can Dance) getting me through the summer TV draught.   Haven’t gotten into it yet?   My Boys is a unique sitcom: the friendships seem real, not forced; not everyone looks like […]

 

“Jessie is a tool in all senses of the word” -Steven No truer words ever were spoke. Here’s the rundown of my current feelings towards most of the house guests. Jessie– You tool! Get off my TV screen! Your nominations are moronic (Dan will make a perfect ally for whomever snags him first, Steven isn’t […]

The writers’ strike was a good thing. 1) it negotiated fairly for the future of the industry 2) I barely even noticed the shortened TV seasons (though I wish they weren’t so) 3) it allowed me to catch up on my DVD watching and 4) it resulted in one of the coolest things since Xander […]
