The people have spoken. The People’s Choice awards aired yesterday. I do not agree with all the choices made, but it was entertaining and, after all, I got nothing to complain about as I am not the show’s target demographic. See for yourself if these are your favorites:

Here are the nominations for Golden Globes. As usual, we will be adding our predictions of the winners – stay tuned. These are not in any way scientific, just our own opinion of the films/actors. The winners are listed in red.

You know you’re getting old and cranky when an old movie franchise is revived to the delight of both fans and critics, but you sit back in the theater and ask yourself “so this is Bond?” I really liked Brosnan in this role (even though deep inside I bow down to Connery), and I have [...]

Yes, the end of the year must be here – all kinds of lists are popping up. Here’s one list we just had to share with you. The TV Land cable network has compiled a list of the 100 greatest catchphrases in TV, from the serious — Walter Cronkite’s nightly sign-off “And that’s the way [...]
