Review – Stargate Universe – A Stargate For The Rest of Us
Posted by Jon Lachonis on September 30th, 2009

I am not a big fan of the various Stargate TV shows. I liked the movie – by which I mean the Kurt Russel/James Spader one – but never really dug the television versions. I can’t explain why, and it is not a vehement hatred so don’t flame me, I was just never ‘hooked.’ The only reason this is significant now is because of how much I absolutely loved Stargate Universe.

I’m going to guess that Stargate Universe is going to…

Review: Eastwick
Posted by Bryan Jones on September 24th, 2009

Eastwick is an easy win for me, though if you read a lot of other reviews on the internets you'd think I was the only person that actually liked this show.  I don't actually believe such nonsense, and I think there's a strong audience out there just waiting for this kind of series.  So don't always believe what you read, take a chance, and give this show a watch (or at the very least a DVR) tonight, and see…

Review – Gossip Girl 3.02 "The Freshman"
Posted by Mark O. Estes on September 23rd, 2009

Monday night’s lesson on Gossip Girl was about clean slates, starting over and letting the past be the past. But the surprising thing is that the lesson wasn’t just for the Upper East Siders that I have come to love (and hate), but for me as well. I say this because I learned something about evil tonight: Sometimes, if not all the time, you “will” have to choose between the lesser of two evils.

Blair, Dan, and Georgina were the trinity…

The Good Wife Pilot Review – Complex & Entertaining Start to Series
Posted by ValerieDavid on September 23rd, 2009

After last year's short-lived Canterbury's Law, Julianna Margulies takes a chance with another lawyer role in this season's political/courtroom drama The Good Wife. Margulies stars as Alicia Florrick, humiliated wife of Chicago prosecutor Peter Florrick (Chris Noth), who has just landed himself in jail under a cloud of political and sexual scandals. In order to support her two children, Alicia returns to the workforce as a defense attorney in a prestigious law firm.

Alicia has education and skills, but she's…

Gossip Girl Season Three Premiere: A Review
Posted by Mark O. Estes on September 15th, 2009

The season premiere of Gossip Girl aired last night and after a summer of high hopes for the show, I was left a tad bit disappointed. It was a rollercoaster of high and low points, but not as much for the characters as it was for me. I had a hard time buying a lot of the explanations behind some of the kids actions last night, namely Serena (Blake Lively), Chuck (Ed Westwick) and Blair (Leighton Meester), and Dan…

Reviewed: 'The Jay Leno Show' With A Kanye West Apology
Posted by Bryan Jones on September 15th, 2009

I'll refrain from calling The Jay Leno show terrible, or an abomination, or the death of television as we know it, simply because all of the hype, good and bad, has been just that…hype.  I watched the premiere episode of the show tonight, which featured a short interview that Jay conducted with Kanye West about the Taylor Swift incident from just last night (Kanye has been booked as a musical guest on the show for some time – very lucky…

Review: "Melrose Place" Pilot
Posted by Clarissa on September 3rd, 2009

I've noticed something about CW shows that the new Melrose Place pilot only seems to confirm: the pilot episodes of CW shows are filled – positively FILLED – with (current) pop songs.  In the first three minutes of the episode alone you'll listen to "Let it Rock" and "Poker Face".  In the first three minutes.  I noticed this in the pilot for The Beautiful Life and I remember it from the 90210 pilot in 2008.

[WARNING!  This review will contain spoilers] I'm…

Review – Entourage S06E02 "Amongst Friends"
Posted by Khaver on July 21st, 2009

Through most of the first five seasons, Entourage revolved mostly around Vince. We're only two episodes into Entourage's sixth and it's pretty clear this time around, the boys are now on equal ground as far as the attention is concerned.

Attention is all that Vince gets at the premiere of Gatsby, and after a scene that was reminiscent of the Entourage pilot, where Vince gets out of the car and is greeted by the roar of the crowd, but things change this…
