If you’re watching New Girl, you know it’s a quirky comedy full of delightfully funny, fresh, and fantastic roommates—or Roomfriends, if you prefer—that navigate the pitfalls and triumphs of shared housing, usually in a hysterically over the top way. But what if the show decided to do a genre swap and landed in the realm of suspense? What would it ... Read More »

This is pretty unusual for her, as it seemed like knew exactly how to play by the rules—and how to make ... Read More »
Episode: A Herald of a New Age. Original air-date: 03/09/2012…so…yeah…turns out there was a new episode of Merlin two weeks ago. For some reason, this crazy blogger had it in her head that there wasn’t. I’m not entirely sure why I thought that, but we’re going to blame Fringe. And the fact that it’s not back on the air yet. ... Read More »
