Why You Should Be Watching Southland

Jessica Ronayne — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 00:03:45 +0000

Southland is one of the best cop shows currently on television. It is now in its third season airing on TNT after NBC foolishly cancelled it after only a few episodes. I have to admit, when it first aired on NBC, I was taken aback by the grittiness of the show and all the bleeps [...]

Saying Goodbye to Medium and Life Unexpected

Jessica Ronayne — Sun, 23 Jan 2011 06:17:50 +0000

In all the midst of the mid season television schedule changes and new show debuts, two shows quietly ended their runs this week. On Tuesday the CW's "Life Unexpected" ended after only two 13 episode seasons. On Friday "Medium" ended after seven seasons and a network change from NBC to CBS two seasons ago. These [...]

Glee Season 2 Episode 10 "A Very Glee Christmas" Review

Jessica Ronayne — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 05:27:51 +0000

I had mixed feelings about this episode. I know it was holiday themed and it is a musical show, so it had to be filled with Christmas songs, but some of the songs were just plain cheesy. When the Glee club was singing and decorating a Christmas tree together in the beginning I was really [...]

Ian Somerhalder: Good Guy Playing a Bad Boy on TV

Jessica Ronayne — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 01:42:58 +0000

There are two kinds of celebrities; the ones who use their fame to get ten plastic surgeries for themselves and the ones who use their fame to make a difference. Ian Somerhalder who plays the complicated and brooding vampire Damon Salvatore on "The Vampire Diaries" is the latter. He could be using his growing stardom [...]

Terriers 1.12 "Quid Pro Quo" Review

Jessica Ronayne — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 02:47:22 +0000

Wow. I was not expecting that at all. You know a show is great when it can shock you the way this week's episode of "Terriers" did. This is, hands down, the most underappreciated show on television this fall. The whole cast is superb, especially Donal Loque as Hank Dalworth. Dalworth is such a complex [...]

CSI: NY 7.09 "Justified" Review

Jessica Ronayne — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 20:03:06 +0000

Usually CSI:NY follows the same formula each week; someone gets killed and the team led by Gary Sinise's Mac Taylor do their forensic best to find the kller. This episode, and part of the last episode "Scared Stiff", broke from the mold and centered around a 15 year old unsolved murder. The twist is the [...]

An Avid T.V. Viewer's Thoughts on the 2010 Season So Far

Jessica Ronayne — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 01:30:36 +0000

I watch a lot of scripted television each week and I have a lot of thoughts on the 2010 season so far. One note to readers, I do not watch any reality television so none of those shows will be discussed in detail. I decided to break my thoughts down by network. So here it [...]

Glee 2.07 "The Substitute" Review

Jessica Ronayne — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 05:32:19 +0000

I love Glee. I love that it is about acceptance of diversity, music, and the freedom to be who you are. That being said, I have been disappointed by the show for the first few episodes this season. I felt like it was trying too hard and had too many big overwhelming themes. But for [...]
