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 [...]
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 [...]
It’s nice to see Frasier is back in action, and showing its original quirkiness.

Ever since Niles and Daphne have gotten together (yippee), the [...]

Once upon a time, Rachel and Ross were the talk of tinseltown. They even had a baby together. But a season or two ago, something weird began to happen. Joey fell in love with Rachel. It’s kinda funny how all the girls of Friends at one point or another have hit on Joe. I mean [...]
Whatever happened to good sitcoms? It seems that the older a show gets the more style, characters, and laughs disintegrate. They say a sitcom always seems to have one season too many before it goes off the air. I am convinced this is true. For example, NBC keeps a show like Friends on the air [...]
The self-proclaimed ‘most politically incorrect show of this fall’ has premiered Tuesday night on NBC. Here’s my personal, and biased opinion on this new sitcom. Nothing frustrates me more than a ‘calculated outrageousness’ (yes, it’s a term, and if not, it should be). As promised in previews, the show indeed has a lot of dialogue, [...]
