Supernatural Watching (part three)

 Don’t you love it when a show you already love basically sends you a love letter right back? The fifth season of Supernatural has had two majorly fantastic episodes that feel just like that. I wouldn’t go so far as to call them Supernatural’s “Once More With Feeling” (the famous Buffymusical episode, for the uninitiated), […]

 

This was YOUR Head of Household. Not Jeff’s, certainly not Brendan’s or Rachel’s, YOURS. So who ends up on the block? The last people you wanted to nominated. I understand that Bruno Mars Dominic using the veto put you in an awkward spot (I didn’t want him to leave though, so I’m sort of glad […]

“You Just Killed My Fairy Godmother”

… and the True Blood gifts just keep giving! I gotta say, I am really enjoying the play out with the Eric amnesia thing, mainly the almost sadistically innocent way that Alexander Skarsgaard grins out Eric’s nigh-constant “sorry”s to Sookie. On top of that, is it just me or is Bill way cooler this season? […]

Supernatural Watching (part two)

I’ve been trying to think of a way to explain the way that Supernatural changes in season 4. I’ve already explained in detail the appeal that the show has to me, but there’s been a profound change in the show’s fourth season that has somehow fundamentally altered my opinion of the show. That’s pretty neutral […]

Cinematic Baggage and the Television Star

Sometimes it’s fun when your favorite TV star pops up in a movie (I know I got a little thrill every time I heard the erst-while Chuck’s voice coming out of Flynn Ryder’s mouth in last year’s Disney offering Tangled). And sometimes you find yourself wondering, “Why is McDreamy being so mean to Shia LaBeouf?” […]

Cute Boys+Banter+Good Genre Writing= A Perfect Summer TV Cocktail

Ahh summer time. A time to lounge around a glistening pool, soaking up rays, swimming laps, drinking margaritas. Oh wait, no. I’m a pale-skinned nerd whose entire epidermis turns lobster red the moment I step outside. Summer is a time where I find myself drawn to the DVD player way more than I am to […]

Playing Catchup on Rookie Blue

I always meant to watch Rookie Blue. I’ve been making a concentrated effort to watch more Canadian TV and Rookie Blue‘s Toronto setting makes it a prime candidate. I also knew it marked Gregory Smith’s highly-anticipated return to TV after Everwood‘s sad departure in 2006. But I wasn’t sure about leading lady Missy Peregrym (whom […]

Damnit Big Brother
 

The new season of Big Brother is one episode old and already it’s a big let down. Okay, maybe that’s a little harsh. The reason it’s a big let down is that, for a couple reasons, it could be a really good season. I love the idea of nominating pairs and having to negotiate the […]
