I didn’t forget about the HDU…okay maybe I did. Better a little late than never.
Season 6 of Project Runway is finally making its way to the airwaves! Heidi, Tim and the gang return this summer.
For your “that’s not even surprising” file, 30 Rock was great last week, especially this clip.
Wanda Sykes is getting her own [...]

After reading a few news reports, and some reviews in HR and Variety, I’m definitely looking forward to the premiere season of “Better off Ted” which airs tonight at 8:30 on ABC. The show stars Jay Harrington of “Desperate Housewives” and Portia de Rossi (woohoo) of “Arrested Development.”
The pilot, written by Victor Fresco, the man [...]

I am a huge fan of ABC’s Life on Mars. One of the best parts is the great ’70s music they dig up for every episode. Some of it is warm and familiar and other songs are brand new to me. Either way, it ties the whole show together. Better than the unfortunate suits and [...]

The Bachelor premiered tonight and it was exactly what you’d expect: 25 wacky ladies ready to find love and drop absurd soundbites along the way. Here are some of my favorites:
“We say that Daddy took a flight to heaven right?” – Stephanie
“I’m a tooth Nazi.” – Shannon
“I’m sort of a polished hick.” Jillian
“Don’t get me [...]

Lost is kind of amazing. I don’t watch for the Easter Eggs, fine details, etc because it gets too hard to follow. But I do appreciate the acting, mystery, and suspense of the program.
The other aspect I appreciate about the show? The marketing! Season 5 premieres in January and ABC has a pretty sweet ad [...]

100,000 folks lost their jobs this month. People are dying all around the world. Food banks don’t have enough donations and more people need food. The only thing left to smile about? Lauren Graham is returning to television in a leading role.
ABC just greenlit the half-hour comedy pilot. Graham will play a self-help whiz [...]

Sorry I’m late gang. Let’s get to it.
Marry: Steven Weber
He used to just be “the guy from Wings.” Now he’s playing the love interest on both Desperate Housewives and Brothers & Sisters. It’s no small feat to be the leading man for ABC Sunday night.
Bop: Pretty Much Everybody On It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia
Thursday’s musical [...]

ABC announced they are not ordering any additional episodes of Eli Stone, Dirty Sexy Money or 2007’s golden child Pushing Daisies.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

It’s almost Halloween TV fans and the spooktacular week ends with The Simpson’s Treehouse of Horror XIX next Sunday at 8/7c. Can you believe this is the 19th go-round for this now iconic TV special? My favorite is still Treehouse of Horror VII, the one where we find out Bart has an evil twin named [...]

Week 2 of Marry, Bop or Kill is going to be a doozy. So much good TV to celebrate.
Marry: Jon Hamm
I was pretty sure I wanted to marry Jon Hamm after his quick guest spot on a Gilmore Girls episode a few years back, but last night only solidified my resolve. Hamm hosted SNL last [...]
