Ah, there’s the Torchwood we remember. Not that we were complaining about it being missing, but the somewhat wacky hijinks of the original Torchwood crew got lost in a rash of character deaths and the decision to take the franchise in a totally different direction with Children of...

Here’s an interesting dilemma for a blogger: How do you write about this show on a weekly basis? And make no mistake, after that tense, explosive (literally), and just plain fun opening episode, we have every intention of writing about this show every week. But here’s what: This...

We can’t. No, seriously. We can’t. In fact, we both turned to each other at various points while watching this episode and said with exasperation, “I can’t.” This is almost certainly traceable to our reaction to the finale of The Killing, but it also has to do...

We find ourselves really admiring the creative restraint on this show. In our first post about the show we noted that the premiere, which was essentially 2 episodes, was establishing a mission-per-episode format and we thought that was a fairly good idea. If you look at each episode of Lost,...

With The Killing giving us THE WORST FINALE EVER, and since Project Runway and The A-List: New York, don’t start for another month, we thought we’d devote some time to the latest “aliens among us” series, Falling Skies, from TNT. If you’re like us and you...

Tom was once again flattered to be invited back to the “Ryan and Ryan” podcast with AOLTV’s Mo Ryan and Boob Tube Dude’s Ryan McGee. With the finales of The Killing and Game of Thrones on our mind, three Irish nerds vented about the former and dissected the latter to...

Well, we’ll give AMC credit for one thing: when they said the last 5 minutes of the show would have us all slack-jawed and wide-eyed in response, they were exactly right. What they left out, however, is that we’d all be screaming “What? What? Are you fucking kidding me?...

Let’s just, for shits and giggles, run down the history of the greatest mayoral campaign in the history of the United States, the legendary matchup between Seattle city councilman Darren Richmond and incumbent Seattle mayor, Lesley Adams. They’ll be talking about this one for...

It’s been fashionfashionfashion all the time around here lately and we’re just dying for some juicy television to talk about since The Killing just ain’t what we thought it was gonna be. And since you could get pregnant today and be toilet-training the little darling by the...

About ten minutes into last night’s episode, we were saying things like “They’re not going to spend the whole hour on Linden’s missing kid, are they?” About 30 minutes into the episode, we were saying things like, “They’re not actually going to kill...

Rosie Larsen was killed by her Aunt Terri. A ludicrous (yet admirably bold) assertion, amirite? Truth be told, we’re not going to stand by it as a deduction, but with the not-so-revealing reveal that Belko is a world-class creep who is frighteningly obsessed with Rosie and her family...

We should warn you right now: if you’re looking for an Entertainment Weekly-esque gushing review, you should probably just head over to Entertainment Weekly. Since we don’t have to worry about whether or not Lea Michele will ever appear on our cover again, we have a little more...

Who was Rosie Larsen anyway? That was the question the occurred to us after last night’s episode. We’re nine hours into this thing and we know way more about the machinery of Seattle politics than we do about the girl who is supposed to be at the center of this story. We get, and...

Better late than never, darlings. A series of unplanned adventures prevented us from getting to this before now. Meet Julia Alarcon. Julia is our hero because she went back to school at 40 to learn fashion design and started a line with her sister. Eventually the sister moved on, but Julia...

We may have to wait until March (at the earliest) to get our Mad Men fix, but fortunately the entertainment industry has a tendency to incestuously rip off its own hits endlessly and there are two network shows on the fall schedule who are doing their best to recapture the early ’60s...

Well, you can’t say the creators of Glee don’t know how to manipulate the audience’s emotions. So much so, that even cynical, critical bitches like us didn’t at first think to question the, shall we say, cheapness of spending a good portion of the episode mourning the...

Good God, this show is depressing. Not a complaint; just an observation. After all, we’d be idiots to whine that a show called “The Killing” isn’t a laff-a-minute romp, but after Holder’s depressing NA meeting confession, coupled with Linden slowly blowing up her...

Meet Leila Shams. She’s been designing for ten years, but she’s hit a rough patch, even though she’s had some of her pieces worn by celebrities. She’s full of personality and has great personal style, but she comes off a bit flighty and VERY disorganized. To be honest,...

So Glee had its long-awaited (and twitter-spoiled) Prom episode and the world awaits our reactions. Will T Lo laud the proceedings or will they find themselves once again facing the ire of Gleeks everywhere because they’e cranky and old and keep harping on old-fashioned concepts like...

In talking over this episode this morning, we realized with a slowly dawning sense of horror that we were struggling mightily to convince ourselves it was a great one. That is NEVER a good sign for a show, as far as we’re concerned. In fact, we may have been reticent about it this...

Darlings, believe it or not, we don’t blog about every single show we watch. Sometimes it’s because we just want to watch a show without taking notes and sometimes it’s because we don’t think a particular show lends itself to weekly episode-by-episode blogging. Fringe...
