(Season 4, Episode 16 – “Darnell Outed, Part 2″) It’s just a plain fact that one of the funniest shows on television right now is My Name is Earl. Everything about it is practically perfect: from the writing, to the direction, to the casting. The whole cast is absolutely wonderful, but for me (sorry Randy […]
My life was in flux during the 1990s. Fresh out of college, I ended up working in an office (but knew I was destined for greatness), and my husband and I wandered gypsy-like between homes while we were building our own high on a hill overlooking Lake Michigan.

This week things were far more serious, dealing with the fallout of the office finding out about Dwight and Angela’s affair. Ultimately, […]
Law & Order (Season 19, Episode 9) Quite honestly, I think the last two seasons of Law & Order have been some of the best in the series. Ever since McCoy became the D.A. and Jeremy Sisto and Linus Roache joined the cast as Lupo and Cutter, it has been on an upswing. As much […]
