Latest episode clacks for this show:
The biggest premiere last week came from cable, as AMC finally released their modern take on The Prisoner. I had been planning for months to make a comparison between that and media-darling Mad Men. I always find the amount of coverage that Mad Men is able to generate, despite the fact that its latest season […]
The success (or failure) of tonight’s episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm — the show’s seventh season finale — really depends on what you were expecting from it. If you were tuning in to see an addendum to Seinfeld the series, you were definitely disappointed. But if you wanted Larry David’s traditional wit, with a sprinkling […]

The numbers weren’t just good. It was the highest rated scripted program on the network, topping the Housewives and […]
