CLICK HERE to read our full coverage of San Diego Comic-Con 2016. USA Network’s sci-fi drama Colony is one season into its run and already stands out as one of the most grounded and thoughtful genre pieces on the air. Set in the near future when earth has been colonized by mysterious invaders from another […]
A cast of some of TV’s most wonderful people populates About Alex, the debut feature from Parenthood writer Jesse Zwick. A dramedy about college friends reunited by tragic, awkward circumstances, this ensemble dramedy dives into everything- listlessness, love (requited, unrequited, unspoken, overwrought), depression, anxiety, jealousy, pretension, ambition- only rarely losing its honesty and light touch. […]
… he did not live Happily Ever After.

It’s time for the 2010 My TV Honorary Award. This distinction, announced separately from the rest of the winners, is awarded each year to celebrate standout achievement in any given category. Winners aren’t nominated in the regular My TV Awards. Rather, they’re honored separately as the best things that happened in TV all year (whether […]
There’s a stigma to any show that can be called “procedural”. The TV landscape has become so saturated with CSIs and Law & Orders and versions of NCIS that it seems like there’s not a lot left. The genre of crime/patient/case-of-the-week plotting and very basic character development is really for casual viewers. For true procedurals […]
I realize I have fallen behind on the many many things happening in the TV world right now. It’s finale time, which means it’s My TV Season Wrap-Up time so my plate is quite full of writing to be done. In the mean time, in case you haven’t been following @MyEntWorld on twitter (which you […]
3) Death. We’ve been promised blood and I have no doubt we’ll get plenty tonight. Lost has never been afraid of killing off people audiences care about and breaking our hearts along the way. Some of the most poignant moments of TV in the past 6 years have been accompanied by Lost‘s signature “dum da […]
I just watched last night’s Lost, the episode entitled “The Candidate” and I know I want to write about it. But I can’t for the life of me think what I want to say. I mean,… wow. You read this blog, you know I’m not a Lost fan the way most Lost fans are Lost […]
In the always-entertaining Official Lost Podcast (available on iTunes) last week, the super awesome Lost showrunners Damon Lindeloff and Carlton Cuse were up to their usual antics, sarcastically avoiding fan questions. For such powerful and cult adored men, Damon and Carlton are always fantastically down to earth and fun, making their podcast entirely more enjoyable […]
Because of all the fanatics and theorists out there, it’s hard to do justice to a review of Lost. Sadly, there aren’t enough hours in the day to focus on every single scene and analyze every single reference (especially when one is not getting paid to do so). Thus, instead of thoroughly reviewing what I […]
LOST ‘s Most Painful Deaths 20/ Nikki and Paulo- They may have been throw away characters who added just about nothing to the show, but this pair had one stand out episode. While the episode itself was nothing too exciting, the final few minutes still resonate. When Nikki and Paulo let their greed become the […]
In anticipation of Tuesday’s Lost premiere, here is a list of the top 5 seasons and some things to hate/love about them. Countdown to the Best Seasons of Lost 5/ Season 4 While the fourth season did not have as many stand out moments, the ones it did have slightly out performed those of the […]
Six years ago, I fell in love with a show. Before it even aired I found myself anticipating the premiere. The premise sounded fantastic, the mystery seemed intriguing, and the few actors I knew were all some of my favorite familiar faces. For two and a half seasons, I watched said show religiously. But sometimes […]
*CAUTION, SPOILERS AHEAD* Going into this week’s fifth season finale, the producers of Lostpromised the audience a death that would shake us to the core the way the loss of Charlie did. And, just like almost every promise of grandeur handed down by the Darlton that be, once again this proved to be a bit […]
Emma Stone– She was the saving grace of the underwhelming Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, a highlight of The House Bunny and played one of the only relatable characters in Superbad. The girl is a serious talent and she’s here to stay. Dubbed Disney- the mad editing skills of “Fantachan” make the Random Disney Crap YouTube […]
Anything to do with Ryan Walker. The big haired manipulative brat is possibly the worst thing to ever come out of a Berlanti show. He’s badly written, REALLY badly cast and just a general nuisance on an otherwise lovable show. Addison Montgomery’s sex life, or that of the people she works with (except maybe Cooper’s). Someone please […]
Having just finished listening to this week’s official Lostpodcast with executive producers Damon Lindeloff and Carlton Cuse (yeah, I’m that person), I have to share a pet peeve: Actors doing anything other than acting. On the podcast, Damon and Carlton answered a fan question about something that seems to have caused a bit of a stir […]
To celebrate Lost’s second awesome episode in a row, I thought I’d use a post to try and wrap my head around the current situations the Losties find themselves in. There’s a distinct possibility that a good portion of the following is simply wrong, so post in the comments and correct me if Lost’s complexities […]
You got me back. About once a year, when I’ve given up on Lost, showrunners Damon Lindeloff and Carlton Cuse pull me back with an unexpected and wonderful episode. This week was that episode for me. I was never a Sawyer fan. I liked him well enough but could not understand why he was everyone’s […]
In a lovely tribute to his deceased friend and a callback to one of TV’s most emotional moments, Desmond and Penny named their son Charlie, after Charlie Pace who died saving Desmond’s life. The revelation was one of few engaging moments in this week’s installment of the most overrated show on the air: Lost. The other […]
Over the past 2 days I have watched 3 hours of Lost (the explanatory clip show and the 2 hour season premier) and as the minutes ticked past it became increasingly clear that I don’t care. While I understand why some people find the tiny details of this increasingly ludicrous mystery to be interesting, I no […]
With the new posters for Lost’s 5th season spreading like wildfire over the Internet (AICN, The TV Addict, Dans Media Digest), there are a few things that really need contemplation. 1) Why does the above poster exclude original castaways Jin, Claire and Michael but include freighter folk Charlotte, Miles and Farraday when the other poster […]
You’ve lost me again (forgive the pun). You had me after season 3’s finale, I was hooked. You had me through the beginning of season 4, I had my questions but I was still on board. You began to lose me for a couple episodes in the middle there but I held on through the […]
Lost returned this week with an exceptional episode. Not only were the Oceanic 6 given their “we just got rescued” flashback which cleared up a lot of muddy plot but the episode was a return to the time when Lost wasn’t just about the next big plot twist. Though always full of shocking developments and […]
I’m not sure what the buzz is on last night’s episode of Lostbut personally I was bored. I couldn’t care less about Michael and I think bringing him back was a bad idea. It was no surprise to anyone that he turned out to be Ben’s guy on the boat (his name had been in […]
Another brilliant episode this week from the geniuses over at Lost. Finally some Sun and Jin. They’re some of my favourite castaways and their stories are always so beautifully told (and acted by these two pros). That said, I totally saw the twist coming that they weren’t in the same time period. I had a […]
