OK, I admit it. I was one of those gals that went to a series-finale-of-Sex-and-the-City party. There were lots of single gals there, who loved the show. And we drank lots cosmopolitan martinis, tried to talk frankly about sex, and tried to wear the funkiest things we had in our closets. Needless to say, I [...]
If I could sum it up in one comment, I can say that it’s not a ‘reasonable’ movie. This sequel to the first Bridget Jones is, for the most part, a re-hash of the original Bridget formula but made to look different. Those who saw Bridget Jones’ Diary can easily spot the similarities between the [...]
Many of you are probably still talking about that Super Bowl accident, when Janet Jackson’s breast was revealed on live television for a few seconds. This supposed “accident” is sending shockwaves throughout the TV industry, and the consequences are already affecting us all. To some viewers, this alleged “wardrobe malfunction” may seem trivial, even hardly [...]
We were afraid it will come to this. ABC’s best new show of 2003-2004 season has been axed. If you are a fan of films like ‘Out of Sight’, ‘Get Shorty’, and the new ‘Big Bounce’, you would understand our anger and disappointment. Based on Elmore Leonard’s character (played quite impressively by Jennifer Lopez), this [...]
Ah, the award season is upon us. What else is there to do during those long, dark Sunday evenings, when the cold wind is keeping us all locked up inside. Let’s tune in to the Golden Globes, shall we? The ‘Globes’ are by far my favourite award show. I know that many of you will [...]
Reality shows. We all love to hate them, especially since they made quite an impact on our everyday TV show lineup. But that didn’t last for very long and about a year ago we were promised that all major networks are going to “trim down” their “reality” lineups, but alas, it is not so. Whether [...]
The show about nothing finally has a worthy successor. Although Curb Your Enthusiasm (on HBO Sunday nights) is not a brand new show, it only now receives the attention it earned straight from season one. Better late than never. Ever since the demise of Seinfeld, many networks have attempted to imitate the success and wackiness [...]
Both stories were inevitable (and a third one is looming), but why did they announce them on the same day? Let us absorb things one by one. Oh, well. Details below. The day started early, with the announcement of Golden Globe nominees (check the official website of Hollywood Foreign Press Association. I won’t bother listing [...]
This year, at the end of November, I don’t feel the closeness of holidays. I feel the empty void of good television. Here I go again, ranting about the quality of the television these days. Maybe the two people who visit the site will agree, and sympathize. Maybe I’ve got it all wrong… Anyway, for [...]
Canadian late-night TV lineup has just gotten better. No more trying to pick between the low-brow comedy dressed up in flash, here comes Daily Show with Jon Stewart, consistently funny, and always on a low budget. This is a big week for Canadian TV history. Or, maybe I’m a little overly excited. Mike Bullard (a.k.a. [...]
