As an unabashed fan of both bad action films and Joel McHale’s biceps, this week’s episode of Communitywas always going to be a hit with me. However, the show really knocked it out of the park by anchoring it in the kind of plot-moving emotional relevance that few shows can pull off with this sort […]

Think you have too much free time on your hands?

In other semi-embarassing TV-watching-related news, my once passing fascination with the TV show version of Ten Things I Hate About You has turned into full blown obsession. As the show moves into its second season, it’s gotten even better, wittier, and more engaging. The characters have deepened, their relationships finally gone past the movie, and […]

Bones Update
 

  I’m about two weeks late, and I don’t have the time/energy to give this the attention it truly deserves, but as the resident Bones expert here at My Tv I feel the need to comment on the recent dramatics. For the record, BIGGEST SPOILER WARNING EVER. About two weeks ago, Bones had its 100th […]

All Hail Spartacus! Bringer of Rain!

  It started as a guilty pleasure. Innocently wandering over to a friend’s house, I feasted my eyes upon a show whose entire mission statement seemed to be: get characters naked, have them kill people, other people have sex.

Year In Review: This Year In Movies

Up until about four months ago, I kept a (fairly up-to-date) movie blog over at “I Watch Movies and Then Talk About Them.” When I graduated college, and found that real life was limiting my ability to add anything worth adding to the conversatons about movies floating along the internet, I hung up my blogging […]

I think I Might Be Maturing… And Other Startling Pop-Culture Related Revelations

My love for the redeemable bad boy has been well chronicled on this site, and with my ever-abiding and increasing love for Glee‘s Puck and HIMYM‘s Barney as continuing proof, I suppose it hasn’t really ended. But recently, while rewatching Veronica Mars Season Three (because, well, if it’s a season that I can’t quote entirely […]

 

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 […]
