“American Horror Story” vs. “Supernatural”: Who’s Scarier?
Best Scary TV Shows: “American Horror Story” vs. “Supernatural”
I’ve never been a huge fan of horror movies. I was one of those kids who was scared by the “Thriller” music video instead of amused by its campiness, and while other kids in middle school were excitedly talking about their [...]
An Interview with Mike D, Host of Lunkerville
Mike D on Bass Fishing and Lunkerville
For bass fishing enthusiasts, it doesn’t get any better than “Lunkerville.” Created in 2004 by independent filmmaker Mike de Avila, the program has allowed Mike to fuse his love for story telling and bass fishing into an extremely popular program. Comparatively different [...]
A Review of FX’s “The League”
“The League”:
The crudest show you never thought you’d want to watch? FX’s “The League”. Characters offend just about everyone with off-color comments about sexuality, Judaism, women’s rights and everything in between. So why tune-in? Because the dialogue is witty, the characters well-developed, and plot points carry over from show to [...]
A Night with Captain Sig and the Hillstrand Brothers at The Palace Theater, Albany (Review)
When I write reviews of cultural events, I try my best not to tell you whether it was good or bad. The thing about cultural events is that they are, well, cultural, and are not therefore measurable in some quantifiable way. [...]
“Off the Map”: Television Review
As with most of the TV shows I end up being an ardent fan of, I was lukewarm about ABC’s midseason, jungle medical drama, “Off the Map,” when I saw it advertised. The show boasts plenty of eye candy with Martin Henderson as Dr. Benjamin “Ben” Keeton, giving McDreamy a run [...]
“Jersey Shore” Cast’s Literary Aspirations: A Shore Thing, Rules According to JWOWW, Here’s the Situation
MTV’s now infamous “Jersey Shore” franchise gets something of a bad rap. I have never been its biggest fan, as all it has done in my life is to give the world at large a new set of jokes and stereotypes to [...]
“Bob’s Burger’s”: Fox’s Newest Animated Series
Like Fox’s other cartoons, “Bob’s Burgers” likely won’t delight everyone’s fancy; it takes a certain palate to appreciate what Fox serves in its Sunday night Animation Domination lineup. However, “Bob’s Burgers” appears to be a worthy mid-season contender.
Unlike the more outlandish antics and characters of the other long-running hits (“The [...]
The future of television’s current number one hit show right now, “Two and a Half Men,” is in limbo.
The show, for those readers who haven’t caught a glimpse, is based, not so loosely, around the life of the show’s star, Charlie Sheen. Sheen plays Charlie Harper, a wealthy jingle writer who lives in his Malibu, [...]
The 2011 Oscars have come and gone. Awards were given out, speeches were had and deserving films were seemingly snubbed while others surprised us with the awards that they were given. This year marked the first time I watched the Oscars in full, and the question is: did it give me a reason to watch [...]
First and foremost (and not to knock or belittle the fantasy-reading community), I am not an avid reader of the fantasy genre. There’s a commonality among the folks who tirelessly attend conventions and renaissance festivals, an energy and enthusiasm that I simply do not possess – not just with regard to costumes and role play, [...]
