Latest episode clacks for this show:

The Middle; Modern Family; South Park – In that order

A long night of TV, and I didn’t even fit in everything I’d normally want to watch, meaning Glee isn’t included this week. I’ve been a lot more excited lately to see the shows I did watch last night: The Middle — First of all, what I really appreciate about this show is how things […]

The Middle – No money down will come back to bite you in the butt

The Middle held up upon a second look, and Patricia Heaton is proving that she’s no one hit wonder — although, personally I learned that with Back to You, but whatever. It’s interesting how a simple thing like making ends meet can have the tentacles to touch so many funny stories on one episode. No money […]

Modern Family, Glee, The Middle: in that order

I had a pretty full slate of TV to watch last night, and as I wrote this it was still not over (I’ve got my guilty pleasure of Ghost Hunters up any minute now). I’ve also got Cougar Town sitting on the DVR for later. It’s crazy, I tell you! Let me quickly make note of the […]

Fall 2009 pre-season predictions: Wednesday

Wednesday is what I would call the night of opportunities. Ten of the sixteen shows are new, and many of those are dropping into slots that, to be kind, don’t have the highest of expectations. Even better, if you need to make your bones on Wednesday, two of the shows that actually were successful on […]
