Tonight’s Gossip Girl had all the elements for a great hour of my favorite guilty pleasure: more Jenny/Eric feuding, tons of Chuck and Blair moments, near-death drama, big reveals, and scandalous secrets. It could have been the perfect episode but things sort of went limp toward the end. The interesting aspect is that the thing […]
I recently caught up on two trashy TV shows: Private Practice and 90210. Both have me hooked so I watch every episode, despite bad writing and outrageous plotting. But while Private Practice inducing little more than eye-rolling, 90210 sometimes makes me care about its characters. So while I didn’t care about Addison’s struggles with her […]
The next season the The Amazing Race is currently filming. While CBS remains quiet about the cast and claims they won’t be announcing the new teams for a while, many fans are already snapping photos of the teams which they’re encountering at airports.

It’s really quite a remarkable feat of network television and its cancellation will always be one of the great tragedies of the 08-09 season. Fantastic […]
In the last few weeks in the overly crowded world of television dance competitions, two very deserving winners won two very different competitions. On So You Think You Can Dance Canada, early favourite Tara Jean took home the win, marking the first time that the best dancer has actually won a SYTYCD season (I love […]
Lately Grey’s Anatomy has been substantially more enjoyable than it’s been in years. Not since we lost Burke and Addison over the course of one hiatus has Seattle Grace been populated with actual adult characters. With the additions of complicated adult characters like Owen and Teddy and the personal growth and maturity that’s come to […]
The Vampire Diaries is my number one guilty pleasure tv show, a better scripted, equally-well-ab’ed Twilight for the slightly older set. But the thing that actually elevates it above other crappy guilt fests? Ian Somerhalder. As Damon, the bad boy older brother vampire, he’s having so much damn fun that you want to have fun […]
