An excellent season of hilarious, intense and zany episodes concluded in less than satisfying, but more than appropriate fashion. Teddy, who was a nonentity for months, magically reappeared a couple weeks ago. Much to my dismay, he ended up being significant to the Tommy Gavin character arc. Even though I disliked Teddy this go around, […]
Unless you dwell inside a deep volcanic chasm or have been in a medically induced coma, you’re aware the Walt Disney Company has purchased Marvel Entertainment for a whopping $4 billion smackeroos. Disney’s not-so-hidden agenda to own the universe in nearly complete. Before they mandate that we all don Mickey ears while singing Hannah Montana […]
I love it when finales live up to expectations. Being Human closed out its six episode first season in dramatic fashion.

I just finished watching Harper’s Island on Hulu. If you’re not aware, it ran on CBS this past spring and summer for 13 bone-chilling, spine-tingling installments. Actually, it wasn’t very scary, but the premise was admirable, if not altogether original. It had a very Screamish feel to it, minus the wild popularity. Poor ratings aside, […]
Mitchell’s return to the nest didn’t go as swimmingly as he expected. Herrick sold him a bill of goods about it being different, but feeding off a gaggle of runaways while mobilizing an army of undead wasn’t what Mitchell had in mind. So, he split again. Herrick was right about one thing — Mitchell needs […]
