Tonight is the beginning of the end. The innovative series Lost – that has consistently combined drama and sci-fi – will air the two-hour season premiere of its sixth and final season, starting at 9 PM on ABC. What exactly will happen in the premiere is anyone’s guess, as the shows executive producers, Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, have been …

The 6 Month Break, Or The Guilt-Free Way To Dump A Love Interest
Say you’re a showrunner and you’ve set up your leading man or lady with a love interest, just to mix things up. Say their on-screen love affair is going along pretty well with a few bumps thrown in to “keep it real”. Then say you decide it’s time to dump the love interest. Maybe they were just a temporary relationship …

No apologies this time for my lack of posting—none at all—and for that I’ll work on something different to the normal blogs around here. I was going to post some abbreviated reactions, like Melissa did, but that’s not fresh or creative at this point and so I won’t bother to try and tell you about all of the shows I’m …

This past weekend was an interesting one for me and several friends as we had the chance to see the SAG award-winning performance of Jeff Bridges in the theatrical release Crazy Heart a day before he was hailed by his peers as Male Actor in a Leading Role in Film. This indie movie chronicles the life of aging country singer …

The holiday hiatus is over, and how! I spent the weekend catching up on shows as far back as last Wednesday’s ABC lineup, so I thought a little grab bag of comments would be appropriate. Modern Family – I love how this show has set up various stereotypes, then proceeds to break them down little by little. The Claire vs. …

As an avid couch potato, it is hard to say these words: there are some TV favorites I have never watched. Phew, that was hard! Okay, maybe you think that’s silly; but when you are as avid a TV viewer as me, admitting you didn’t get on the bandwagon of a particular well-done, but in most cases, highly overlooked show, …

Last week I had the chance to attend the Paley Center’s salute to the 100th episode of the CBS comedy How I Met Your Mother. As a non-watcher of TV comedies, this event might seem like an odd event for me to attend; but as a long-time fan of Alyson Hannigan (dating back, obviously, to her days on Buffy, the …

During my lovely 10-day Christmas break, all the illnesses I avoided during the autumn attacked me at once. Fevers, chills, headaches, sore throat, back aches. I even lost my voice for 3 days, which, let me tell you, made traveling to Chicago for a brief vacay super fun. My mom and my 10-year-old niece were with me, both novices at …

Happy New Year Everyone! Did all of you have nice holidays with your family and/or friends? I sure hope each was just what you hoped they would be and that 2010 brings all of our readers nothing but the best. I can happily report that I brought the new year in with, well, not flair, but at least with some …

The final episode of Eastwick aired on ABC last week, overlooked with little promotion and an odd airdate. If my DVR hadn’t been programmed to grab it, I would have missed it, and it looks like only about 3.26 million other people noticed it. Terrible numbers for the end of what should have been at least a moderate hit and …
