Welcome to a special edition of “Obsessions of the Week”. In this post (hopefully making you forget that I didn’t write at all last week) I’ll list my 20 favourite male and female TV characters. These aren’t necessarily the most revolutionary or the most classically brilliant TV characters, it’s by no means a typical list […]

Prison Break: new season, new genre

 This week’s season premiere of Prison Break made 3 things clear: 1) Sara’s back, it’s totally plausible and the audience is not, under any circumstances, to question it. And question it I won’t, because having Sara back means an end of the vengeful, mopey Michael and more of the thoughtful, focused Michael of earlier seasons. […]

The New Bionic Woman
 

10 minutes in I’ve decided that I never want to see another episode of the new 90210. I’m tempted to watch until Shannon Doherty shows up because I love her (selfish bitch to the point of self destruction= amazing!) but probably can’t stand it that long. Like last year’s uber hyped Bionic Woman, 90210 is so […]

 

It’s been awhile since I listed. And thus, I present… a list. My Favourite Seasons. The season in which a show was the best it could be. The West Wing– Season 2 With the critics clearly in their circle and the fans starting to finally pour in, the great minds behind my all-time favourite show […]

Fox also kicked off their new season of Prison Break tonight (I promise a review of Sara’s promised return as soon as I view the episode online). […]

 

OK, after a week off for a family emergency, I’m back and trying to make up for lost time with a double dose of weekly obsessions…   Avenue Q I just came home from seeing the touring production. I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time- go see it. The lead plays both Princeton […]

Remember Michael Flaherty
 

There is nothing like a brilliantly crafted series finale. In fact, it doesn’t have to be perfectly crafted, as long as it is true to the series, the characters and the fans who have stuck by the show the entire way. Tonight I watched a perfect series finale. I’m talking about Michael J Fox’s departure from […]

BB10: my current favourites
 

Without question my 2 current favourites on Big Brother are Memphis and Dan. Just in reading a bio or surfing a fun facts page, there is no way in hell that I would like Dan. He’s close-mindedly conservative, preachy, judgemental, vain, slightly misogynistic and tries too hard to be macho. Memphis, on the other hand, […]
