Tonight is the series finale of The L Word. At six seasons it’s Showtime’s longest running show and I hope it receives the proper send-off it deserves.
However, we may not find out who killed Jenny Schecter tonight. Instead, the show’s great mystery might remain unsolved. Executive Producer Ilene Chaiken spoke with Kristen Dos Santos about [...]

United States of Tara: What’s Your Genre?
Posted in Episode Re-Cap, Reviews, tagged Showtime, The United States of Tara on March 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I just finished catching up on USoT yesterday and I have to say, I like it. I think the acting is great, I think he story is interesting and I obviously enjoy writer Diablo Cody’s one-liners. However, after watching a few eps in succession I have to say I’m a little confused.
What type of show [...]

The one day late edition. I’m in Florida. The weather is nice. Time flies by. I have 969 unread articles in my Google Reader and I only missed one day. Needless to say, this will probably be the shortest, untimeliest, HDU. My apologies.
Guess who won Top Chef? Stupid, stupid, Casey! I blame you for this.

Secret Diary Shines

Lately my favorite TV show has been Showtime’s Secret Diary of a Call Girl. My co-blogger, for whom deserves most of the credit for this blog, would be inclined to disagree, but I find the show to be thoroughly engaging. If you’ve never followed Showtime’s lineup through to 10:30 pm, then here’s a little series logline: [...]
When Dexter & Deb Got Married
Posted in In The News, tagged Dexter, Golden Globes, Jennifer Carpenter, Michael C. Hall, Showtime, Weddings on January 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Michael C. Hall & Jennifer Carpenter (aka Dexter and Deb) got hitched on December 31st. I support most marriages (except the ones involving two potentially unwilling teenagers and child brides) but this one is a little hard to swallow. Do I think Michael and Jennifer are really brother and sister? No, but until I see [...]

The series premiere of Showtime’s latest pursuit, The United States of Tara, is currently streaming on sho.com. Just type in the word “tara” when prompted.
Seth over at Defamer had some not nice things to say about the first episode but I found it to be pretty interesting. Tara (played by Toni Collette) is a muralist/mom [...]

Busy week this week which means I haven’t even had a chance to watch TV today. I know, awful right? I thought I’d bring back my favorite quick blog featureette: So Happy, So Sad
So Happy: Great Dexter Ep
Dexter finally offed Miguel. We all saw it coming but it wasn’t any less rewarding. And how about [...]
Jimmy Smits Stabbed A Dude
Posted in In The News, tagged Accident, Dexter, Jimmy Smits, Showtime, Stuntman on October 5, 2008 | 1 Comment »
It was an accident on the set of Dexter, but how often do you get to write a title like that?
Apparently Jimmy accidentally stabbed a stunt man in the chest with a real knife instead of a fake knife.
The scariest part is that the stuntman saw the whole thing go down. He was bound and [...]

There’s quite a TV traffic jam tonight. I plan on recording or watching pretty much everything on this list and then making decisions as to what stays on my schedule. It’s going to be a long night.
-Season Premiere (The 20th to be exact): The Simpsons – Fox 8/7c
-Season Premiere: Amazing Race 13 – CBS 8/7C

Showtime is streaming the season premiere eps of Dexter and Californication for free, right now on their website.
Want to get in on the action? Go here. You’ll need the password.
It’s Lady Killer.
Get it? Because Dexter is a serial killer with some ridiculous issues and because David Duchovny and his character Hank Moody love ladies…a little [...]
Weeds. Whoa.
Posted in Reviews, tagged Entourage, HBO, Showtime, Weeds on September 9, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I am blown away.
One could argue Weeds has been crazy this season. Drug trafficking, the Mexican mob, cheese shops, teenage three-ways, etc. But where Entourage takes their crazy and spins it into one-dimensional episodes of fantastical excess, Jenji Kohan and the folks over at Weeds craft complex tales of betrayal, lust and family.
We were [...]
