It was bad enough when my favorite supernatural soap, Passions, decided to move to DirectTV, which I do not have (and I don’t know anyone who does).  Now after only a few months, they’ve announced they’re sick of it, and they’re dropping the show too!  Is there any hope for the kind citizens of Harmony?  [...]

1. WeedsYes, I’ve written about Weeds before (see Weeds: The Best Show Ever Made, which was quoted on the official Weeds website), but I can’t help but continue to sing its praises. This show’s writers are fantastic at getting characters, especially our hapless lady protagonist, out of seemingly impossible situations, but seriously, after watching the [...]

I never thought I’d be saying this, but Just Shoot Me isn’t that bad a show.  I’ve been watching it on reruns now that I’m unemployed, and it’s a lot like News Radio, in a way.  It’s actually got pretty sharp writing, much of the humor is character-driven, and darn it, I like David Spade.  [...]

Is anyone else watching the premiere of The Next Great American Band? Does anyone else think that the Kinks-like young band Très Bien, who hail from Scientology’s Salt Lake City, Clearwater, FL, are in fact Scientologists?  One of them already referred to the fact that if you visualize something, it’ll come true.  This is classic [...]

Anybody who’s a fan of the supernatural and super-awesome soap opera Passions is probably already aware of this, but after being dumped by NBC, they chose to move to DirectTV instead of going away altogether.  I’m happy about this, especially since most of the cast is moving along with the show, but couldn’t they have [...]

The nominations for the 2007 Emmy award for “Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics” this year are too awesome.  It’s like the Emmy nomination committee has been replaced by several adolescent boys!  The nominees are…*Family Guy - “Peter’s Two Dads” (a song about how the Irish are a bunch of lousy drunks)*Scrubs - “Guy Love” (basically a big gay joke)*Saturday [...]

Big Love is an odd show about an odd topic. It combines two things that appeal to very different audiences — devout religion and abnormal sexual practices — but is completely justifiable in its juxtaposition of these two elements in that it’s based on real life…sort of. Our protagonists, a large (to say [...]

With the Sex and the City movie finally in production, I thought it would be appropriate to take a look back at some of my favorite episodes of this fine girly program, which Liz and I have, ahem, been known to view from time to time. I invite you to take a trip back [...]

 Marijuana-related entertainment carries a bad reputation, and with semi-good cause. What with Cheech and Chong numbers 2 through 18, Dude, Where’s My Car? , Evil Bong (some movie we spotted on the TV Guide channel, probably while drunk, and decided to Netflix, but which nearly destroyed our will to live), and any of [...]
