I wish Agent Carter had come out some time last year, so when I say it’s one of the best new shows of the year, I don’t sound flippant. But since it is early January, let’s say Agent Carter sets the bar very high for the shows of 2015. Stylized, action-packed, humorous with a talented […]
ABC’s Galavant is completely and utterly absurd, ridiculous, and a whole lot of fun. It’s certainly the finest medieval musical comedy on TV right now. While not without its faults, Galavant is a fun romp, taking full of advantage of its charming cast and the talents of veteran songwriters Alan Menken and Glenn Slater. The […]
This was a great year of TV. It was a massively terrible year for network TV with few new hits and tons of stupid cancellations (6 shows on this list have already been cancelled or are in their final season) but it was still a great year of TV because, while the executives were making […]
Brooklyn Nine Nine (FOX) After binge-watching this comedy series over the summer, I eagerly awaited the second season. It did not disappoint. The characters are zany without being obnoxious.

I always thought ER was a crappy show because every time I tuned in, I had to familiarize myself with new characters. Not surprisingly, […]
Hey guys, remember when I was all, “gosh I hope Selfie turns into a good show because I love John Cho and Karen Gillan”? Looks like the creators did too. It’s pretty usual for sitcoms to have a rough patch in the beginning, but in its second episode Selfie comes out strong. They double down […]
Before watching Black-ish, I was under the impression that the new comedy would be all about a rich black family whose patriarch decided they were too “white acting” and needed to add some black culture back into their lives. After watching the pilot, that sentence pretty much summed it up. In fact, the previews for […]
