So good old ABC is up to their old tricks teasing us with four episodes of their new series, which won’t be back until March 2010. Knowing ABC’s track record, who knows if it will be back at all?
After faithfully watching all four episodes, I remain torn but I am leaning towards becoming a fan. ...
I’m not quite sure what I expected from this new iteration, but whatever it was I’m not getting it.
Two episodes deep and I’m a bit worried… There doesn’t seem to be any substance to ABC’s new show. It feels very predictable and bland. Alien conspiracy, sub-par acting,...
I honestly could not tell you one character’s name in this show, but after ABC’s hour long premiere I can tell you I’m preparing to dig in for the long haul.
What else can I tell you? Well there is a chick from Lost, two people from Firefly, a black dude from all the Tyler...

So since it’s inception, I have been a faithful watcher of MTV’s Real World/Road Rules challenges. Those of you “in-the-know” know that this show has everything you could ask for in entertainment, hotties, drama, heated competition, drinking and inevitably fights. Last night’s...

So I’ve been very critical of ABC’s new “hit” show and I come to you today to give credit where credit is due. Episode 3 gave this show some promise again. My prior complaint was that it all just felt like a whole lot of nothing. I’m still convinced that the writers and...

It has often been said that reality is better than any script one could write. While I believe a lot of reality shows are scripted, there are still a few gems left.

Have you been getting your fill of Survivor this season??? If you missed last week’s episode, you missed one of the greatest blind-sides of Survivor history.
This prick Erik, I call him a prick because of the audacity and general a-hole-ishness he spewed as the two tribes merged, got a slap in the...
