An interesting phenomenon is taking place in Hollywood. There are two summer releases connected to extremely popular action figures of the 1980s. The first is the sequel to The Transformers, which premiered earlier in the season. The second, which enters the fray on August 7th, is G.I. Joe. Not the G.I. Joe that featured the […]
As the summer turns a hot and humid corner into the homestretch, one would think that the primetime schedule would be full of reruns. Yet, there are actually more original series on the Big Four-and-a-Half Networks than repeats. I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing.

Granted, it wasn’t what they really wanted — several successful years of quality storytelling, followed by a tearful, yet happy, ending. But, with television the way it […]
The good news: a number of original series populate the schedule, providing a smaller amount of reruns. The bad news: Legally Blonde 3: Blonde Justice will not be shown due to the annual MLB All-Star Game. I know, you can’t stop crying. God bless CBS for keeping some scheduling normalcy with their weekly 8 pm […]
