I have a confession to make. I am a sucker for teen television shows (not the confession yet). This is pretty obvious. I love Greek, and Gossip Girl, The OC and Dawson’s Creek are on constant DVD rotation, and I’m already set up to TIVO pretty much every new CW show. So… despite my inclinations […]
The collaborations between the Whedon-verse and the BSG-galaxy just keep on coming. The one time blonde haired bad boy, James Marsters, is guest starring in a minimum of three episodes on the BSG spin-off Caprica, which debuts on the newly-renamed Syfy on January 22nd, 2010. But in the meantime, check out the pretty awesome pilot/miniseries […]
I think I’m in love with this season of True Blood. I’ve mostly let Tim take over reviewing duties, because I’ve been crazy busy and watching it on a crappy site, and because Tim does a kick ass job recapping and highlighting what has been so awesome about this season of True Blood, but don’t […]
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!
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 […]
Eureka could be the most affable, good-natured, thoroughly and consistently enjoyable shows to ever grace the face of basic cable. ASs SyFy’s biggest hit, and second only to BSG in mainstream recognition, Eureka has had three pretty damn great seasons of science fictiony weirdness without the requisite darkness or satire. Don’t get me wrong; there’s […]
Even though the television schedule is way less empty during summer than it was going back before the predominance of Cable (like AMC and SciFi) and Premium (HBO, Showtime) channels, summer still tends to be a bit of a television dry spell for me. This is good. It allows me to do things like catch […]
Hey there HBO execs, I’m a patriot. I’m all for America. I spent the Fourth of July not one hundred feet away from the Liberty Bell and the steps that Sylvester Stallone famously ran up to train for his big comeback in Rocky, getting, I admit it, a little teary eyed as I heard […]
