‘Cuse likes speakers from TV

So, the keynote speaker for Newhouse’s convocation is Danny Zuker, basically, if you’ve turned on a TV in the past 15 years – you’ve probably seen something that he has worked on. Seems like there is TV people all over ‘cuse, Aaron Sorkin is gonna be doing his thing at commencement, Zuker is workin’ the [...]

Little Shop of Horrors: The Third

Few Broadway lovers haven’t heard of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, the critical flop that’s somehow managed to be a commercial success (most likely due to the hype surrounding the numerous injuries and mishaps suffered by members of the cast). And even fewer Broadway lovers (and people in general), haven’t heard (or become addicted to, [...]

May The Fourth Be With You

At first, I was going to take a negative slant when I began writing this. I’m seeing a lot of people who probably have never even seen a Star Wars movie posting “May the Fourth be with you,” and at first it bothered me. I then realized it was just my nerdom showing it’s dark side. [...]

“A” Is Finally Revealed

CAUTION: contains spoilers!  Did anyone see that coming? Monday night was the finale of the second season of ABC Family’s addictive show Pretty Little Liars. As promised, the identity of the infamous “A” has been revealed. Who would’ve thought that Mona had it in her to be so obsessed with anyone other than herself. It [...]

When did Masterpiece Classic get hip?

When Downton Abbey first aired in America its instant popularity was part surprise, part joke.  The supposedly niche British drama has now made Masterpiece Classic not only mainstream (4.2 million viewers tuned in for the Season 2 premier), but trendy – even for the minimally geriatric among us. And really what’s not to love? For [...]

Courtney’s Crocodile Tears

What a gem. On the The Women Tell All  episode of The Bachelor, Ben’s favorite girl to love and the viewer’s favorite girl to hate came on to defend herself against the other contestants. Instead of using her time in the hot seat to find redemption, she dug her hole even deeper with the other [...]

So Snooki’s pregnant and more things I wish I didn’t care about….

20 years old, pretty good writer, into pop punk music, tattoos and deep, brooding poetry. This is the side of myself I wish I spent more time with. We all have one. The “you” that you are when you’re at home in the bath tub with your rubber duck, in bed with your old stuffed [...]

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Gets a Prologue!

Since the release of the teaser trailer for “The Dark Knight Rises,” the long-awaited sequel to “The Dark Knight,” there has been little news on the film. Aside from photos snapped by both paparazzi and nosey fans as well as the odd rumor, it’s been fairly quiet on “TDKR” front. However, a bombshell has just been [...]

‘The Bachelor’ Set to Return

ABC has finally set the date for the premiere of the new season of the “Bachelor.” The madness beings again for the sixteenth time on January 2. Let’s be honest, last season of the “Bachelorette” was less than thrilling. I think everyone can agree that although they loved J.P. (what a cutie), Ashley was painfully [...]

‘Ridiculousness’ Is Here to Stay

MTV announced last week that Rob Dyrdek’s new TV venture, “Ridiculousness,” has been renewed for a second season. Surprisingly, the show inspired by “Tosh.0”  averages 1.9 million viewers. For those of you have not tuned into MTV to see the show, Rob finds crazy viral videos and basically rips on them with his panel. His [...]
