Back in January of 2006, a unique little show called Love Monkey, based on a book of the same name by Kyle Smith, debuted on CBS. It told the story of a 30-something, single, record executive who navigated the tumultuous and highly amusing waters of work and dating in New York City. The series was created by Michael Rauch, who …

This weekend will be my first con. No, I am not confessing to a new life of crime (although after this past month, I don’t think anyone would blame me). No, I am talking about going to my first comic book convention, the SC Comicon. I am no stranger to attending events. With a career in the media (radio, magazine …

Every year I look forward to several TV-related events. The first is the annual Paley Fest that is sponsored by the Paley Center for Media (formerly the Museum of Television and Radio). For the last few years that event has been held at the Dolby Theatre (where the Oscar’s are held) in the heart of Hollywood. The second event is …

“Stitchers” returns tonight on Freeform, and while there are several reasons you should be watching this show, the three leading ladies are well worth a closeup.

A cameo on a primetime television show is a great way to expose viewers to the possibilities of real life success. Here are three Very Important Women (VIW) who guest starred in …

You may have noticed by now, I’m kind of a numbers junkie. I like numbers, they help me make sense of things. I love to find random facts and see how they fit into my life, albeit, sometimes it’s in an off-the-wall way, sometimes in a very spot on way. So it should come as no surprise to you that …

Back in 2009, ABC premiered a new supernatural series called Eastwick based on the John Updike novel “The Witches of Eastwick”, which – as many know – was adapted into a film back in 1987 that starred Jack Nicholson, Cher, Susan Sarandon and Michelle Pfeiffer. The small screen version that only lasted for one season starred Paul Gross (of Due …

Despite the sunshine outside, this week has been a bit foggy for me. It’s been one week. One week since I finished watching 111 episodes of Blue Bloods. I started watching the show the last weekend of January and I finished the five seasons available on Hulu last Friday night (March 4). That’s  4,773 minutes of Blue Bloods in FIVE …
