So there’s this show. You may have heard about it. It’s called True Blood. It’s loosely based on characters created for a series of mystery novels, but as the differences grow stronger every season, it’s hardly fair to say they are related. What they do have in common is a slow slide from “oh, this [...]

It made me want to read the books again, so it couldn’t have been that bad. There wasn’t much to recommend it, however. I have no idea how you could have followed much of it if you hadn’t read the books, and I certainly don’t know why you’d bother with the second episode.

It’s time for this week’s installment of Grey’s Anatomy: An Honest Mistake I think I’m getting the hang of not-live blogging, now. I know that Top Chef lends itself to this (what do you call this: genre? medium? meme? …let’s go with “treatment”) treatment more than a standard hour-long drama, but i found the rhythm [...]

This time, I’m doing Top Chef Season 5 Episode 13 – the [...]

I confess. Nothing about this is “live”. It’s the Monday after the episode aired, so the show is certainly not live.

Instead, I’m just going to post this when [...]

yes, it’s about tv. i’m tired of having the “why do still watch tv?” conversation in my head. it feels only slightly less pathetic to write about it. also, i miss writing essays. ;) disclaimer: i watch a handful of shows, but probably less than the “average” tv viewer. arguably less than other people in [...]

not to be too “lady doth protest”, but i figured that if i’m going to spend the time watching tv (while doing other things, mind you, of various levels of “worthiness”) i should use some of the words that come out of my fingers after i’m done. plus, it’s an excuse to blow my opinion [...]
