Wow, what a lineup this year. We thought Toronto Film Fest was outstanding in 2005 (Everything’s Illuminated, Mrs. Henderson Presents, A History of Violence, and dozens of other films), but so far this year we haven’t seen (or heard of) anything bad. Every screening we go to, every review we hear is just great. Stay [...]
Wow, look at the list of all the shows this season. You’d think there would be a few less, since WB and UPN have merged, and FOX with NBC has seen a lot of cancellations last year. Nope, they’re all back – your favourites, as well as newbies, waiting for your approval. A few notes: [...]
Congratulations, America! Your most popular comedian (voted by you) is a cripple. How telling, how sadly ironic. Please don’t bash me over the head with your political correctness, or call me a bigot. Try to understand this simple comedy concept – the audience should be laughing with the comedian. As soon as they’re laughing AT [...]
It was only a matter of time before Survivor tackled Cook islands – a few truly untouched places on earth. Let’s bring in American faux-celebs, and camera crews. And, to no one’s surprise, Two and a Half Men is still on schedule, despite being the most overrated sitcoms of the last decade (besides Yes, Dear). [...]
As you know, the WB network and UPN are going to merge this fall, to create the new CW network. Naturally, their best shows are joining together into a pretty solid lineup. Now you can watch Veronica Mars, Everybody Hates Chris, The Game, Smallville, Runaway and Supernatural all on one channel. And, for reality junkies, [...]
Here are the nominations (and winners) for television’s best shows and actors. It’s good to see the new shows (Commander in Chief, Out of Practice, The Office, Rescue Me, My Name is Earl) along with oldies but goodies (West Wing, Law & Order, 24, Scrubs, The Sopranos). Unfortunately, there’s always a show or two that [...]
The second half of May is usually an emotionally draining part of the TV year for us. Most shows air finales (some end for good), many shows are announced to officially be canceled, and the best part – the networks announce their upcoming fall schedules. Sure, four months is a long time, and many of [...]
It has come to this – West Wing is closing today (along with Law & Order: Criminal Intent), Will & Grace is ending next week (along with ER), and we’re stuck with the second-rate programming that NBC has become known for recently. Wait, forgot all about Scrubs – the little gem that nobody watches. Except [...]
>Is this season coming to an end already? Here’s the first of many reports on the last few shows of 2005-2006 year. ABC is ahead of the pack, knowing well in advance most (if not all) of its shows fates. Stay tuned for more networks, and meanwhile, fire up those VCRs and TIVOs. It’s been [...]
So when do all these new shows start? This is it – the new season is here. Sure, FOX has launched Prison Break and OC earlier than every other network – almost two weeks ago. But they only did it because they could. Actually, they’re going to do this again on Sunday, September 11th – [...]
