Weary (A Rant)

After all of the hullabaloo of the past week about Mackenzie Phillips and Roman Polanski, I’m tired.
I’m tired of hearing about incest and rape. I’m tired of apologists trying to ignore the fact that these crimes were committed.
Is it okay that John Phillips coerced his daughter into a sexual relationship because he also happened to [...]

The Fall Season So Far

So far, I think the new fall TV season has gotten off to a good start. There have been some misses (Accidentally on Purpose, to name one really big one), but I’ve been impressed with a few of the new and returning shows.
The Vampire Diaries is fun, though it is a DVR show. Flash Forward [...]

What Is up with the CW?

I have a notion about how the network TV world should work. Producers make pilots and shop them to the networks. The networks order episodes based on the pilot and sink some money into ensuring that the shows bring in eyeballs when they debut.
In a perfect world, a show that doesn’t do so well out [...]

The Beautiful Life: TBL Is So Over

I just read in the LA Times that The CW has canceled The Beautiful Life: TBL and will replace it with repeats of Melrose Place. Apparently, one night a week isn’t enough for that awful show.
I think TBL failed with viewers because (a) it was not a good show and (b) it used its name [...]

Who Will Be the Next Big Infomercial Star

With the passing of Billy Mays and the downward spiral of Vince of Slap Chop and Sham-Wow fame, there appears to be a vacuum in the infomercial host world.
Who will fill it? And what do you look for in your infomercial spokespeople? Volume? Craziness? Or just great screen presence?
My favorite fake infomercial of all time [...]

The Return of Happy TV

I like dark shows. Porbably more than the average person.
I loved the seedy underbelly of the small Pacific northwest town Twin Peaks.
I couldn’t get enough of the depressing and violent near-future depicted in Strange Days.
But even I have to throw up my hands sometimes and say, “Please show me some color, some light, some happiness.”
Pushing [...]

Should Genre Shows Get Their Own Emmy Category?

Many of us have lamented the fact that Jensen Ackles will never get an Emmy nod while he is on Supernatural, even though his work is Emmy caliber. Or that Battlestar Gallactica may have gotten some nominations, but was never considered a serious contender for any categories shown on the broadcast. Or <insert genre show [...]

We Agree That Kanye West Is a Tool

In last week’s poll, we got a 100% response that Kanye West is, indeed, a tool.
He needs to have a better handler, I think, one who will help him channel his arrogance and impulsiveness to better activities than embarassing a teenage girl on national television.
