A Brief Note on Amazing Casting

Cheers to Hung for casting the two most perfect actors for their series. I’m finally at the point where I officially love Hung (insert inappropriate jokes here). There are two reasons I love this new HBO series:   1/ Anne Heche: Heche’s Jessica started of as the somewhat annoying ex-wife of Ray who seemed like […]

Danger in Dallas
 

After a 3 episode slump, True Blood is back to on the hot tamale train (don’t judge me…I’m far too excited for SYTYCD tonight). Everything is about to blow up in Louisiana and things aren’t looking to great down in Texas either. The entire season has been leading up to a confrontation between Sookie the […]

A Mature Mother
 

The latest episode of Weeds took a turn for the serious…and it was a homerun. For the first time in 5 seasons, I did not laugh out load once. Sure, there were amusing sub-plots focusing on Celia’s make-up sales and Doug and Silas’ confiscated pot. But “Distinctive Horns” was an amazing episode due to maturity…something […]

A Geeky Convergence of Semi-Epic Proportions

Dollhouse just got even geek-tastic–ier. Jamie Bamber, aka ab-tastic Captain/Major/Admiral Lee Adama, is joining the erst-while Helo, Tahmoh Penniket, on Dollhouse. Which means Whedon language coming out of the prettiest member of the awesome Adama family. I’m trying to avoid the BSG-centered pun, but… Oh frack it. So say we all!

 

The strangest love triangle ever: Big Brother‘s Lydia vs. Natalie for the attention of Jessie. (we predict that the winner of Jessie’s affection will be Jessie, for he can love no one as much as he loves himself). That said, we’re giving the self-obsessed body builder points this season for seriously stepping up his gameplay […]

A Blast from the Recent Past: NewsRadio

Despite my love for the genre, I’m well aware that I came into pop culture consuming prominence during the wane of the golden age of the sitcom. Consider Seinfeld and Friends its death gasp, and the intervention of single-camera, laugh track-less half hour comedies its replacement (thanks a lot, critically acclaimed, brilliant comedies!), and it’s […]

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is not only the incomparably engaging (and beautifully dimpled) star of my new favourite movie of the summer (500 Days of Summer) but he is also the star of my favourite sports movie of all time (Angels in the Outfield) and my favourite teen movie of all time (10 Things I Hate About […]

 

If you choose to ignore the final 30 seconds or so of tonight’s final Samantha Who episode, you can really delude yourself into thinking that the series had a proper sendoff. One of the more painful of this season’s many painful losses (Pushing Daisies, Eli Stone, Dirty Sexy Money, Privileged, Kings and Valentine), Samantha Who […]
