No, I haven’t run out of original title ideas. As some of you may have seen, I recently wrote a similar post about the plight of the highly rated but severely overlooked NCIS. The truth is that your response to my article left me pleasantly surprised, while at the same time thinking about all of […]
(Season 6, Episode 14 – “The Brush Man”) It was an entirely different world back in 1967. Nowadays it’s rare to have a door-to-door salesman come by the house, with the exception of those dubious magazine subscriptions or religion.

As usual, the holiday tossed the broadcast schedule into disarray, and new scripted programming was mighty hard to find. The only thing that passed for regular programming was the CBS Sunday night. Elsewhere, it was a mish-mash collection of […]
Week of December 20 through December 27 Clever, insolent, creative, irreverent; even a little twisted. I speak of the writers here at CliqueClack, and the unique posts they churn out day after day. How could we let seven days go by without highlighting some of the week’s gems? The week of Christmas brought the last […]
