Summer television used to be a complete joke. A placeholder between fall premiers and summer finales. But I honestly believe that in recent years, SOME networks, SOME shows have reached the level of excellence we have come to expect from our regular season fair. And for a TV addict such as myself, that means I … Continue reading

My Fantasy Emmys: 2013
Seeing as how the 2013 Emmys are oh, less than 24hrs away, I thought I’d put in my 2 cents. And seeing as how this is my blog and I get to write whatever I want this post isn’t going to be about who I think they’re going to give the award to tomorrow night … Continue reading
‘Shameless’ Season 3: Things Don’t Change, Do They?
I’ll be honest, I couldn’t write a recap of the much anticipated Shameless premiere (3×01 “En Gran Canon”) because I was so unimpressed it actually killed me. Shameless came in at #2 on my Top 10 Shows of 2012 list, and after its lackluster return last Sunday I couldn’t bring myself to write a lackluster … Continue reading
‘The Vampire Diaries’ Returns to Rebekah Emotionally Ruining Everyone
So let’s jump right in. 4×10. “After School Special”. High school eulogy for Mama Lockwood. Buzzkill. Tyler’s angry-moody and Elena wigs out. Caroline and Bonnie are concerned for both, respectively, Bonnie for Elena and Care for Tyler because let’s be real, Caroline pretty much hates Elena right now. Oh look! New guy! They know him … Continue reading
Weekly Sitcom Recap: Ruining Normal People’s Lives
Sunday’s episodes of Happy Endings and Don’t Trust the B– were previously un-aired episodes from past seasons, so while totally worthy of watching, I’m not going to include them in my weekly round-up. Watch them anyway, in-order episodes are for sissies! In fact, it’s just been announced that ABC is now reneging on their double … Continue reading
3 Shows, 5 Episodes: Don’t Trust the Happy New Girl, A Weekly Sitcom Recap
With Happy Endings and Don’t Trust the B– airing twice a week plus New Girl I for reallllz have no idea how to do recaps of all the hilarity. So I decided to do a little “best of” recap-u-let each week that will dole out prizes to various moments from the past week in sitcom … Continue reading
Deception; or How Not to Make a Pilot
Now I am not one to judge too harshly. I understand that not every television show is meant for every person. There is a reason there’s The Good Wife, Family Guy, Revenge, Happy Endings and Ax Men all on at the same time. There are even people who watch Here Comes Honey Boo Boo although for the life of me I … Continue reading
List-O-Mania: The Top 10 TV Shows of 2012
10. The Vampire Diaries (CW) I used to be ashamed to admit my fangirly love for The Vampire Diaries, but it’s just so darn delicious that I now wave my TVD freak flag high. As pretty much the only quality CW show left, it’s often written off rather quickly once someone utters the title and … Continue reading
Homeland 2×12 Recap: ‘Dude Where’s My Car?’
I feel compelled to preface this recap by saying that to me, this season of Homeland began with a bang and just kept on running, but by the time the Brody and Carrie trust-me-but-I-don’t-trust-you romance was in full swing again I was oddly frustrated. It weighed down the speed of the show and while I … Continue reading
