While Sophia (Madison Lintz) still happily – well maybe not happily, but she’s breathing – lives on in the pages of Robert Kirkman’s THE WALKING DEAD comic book series, she rather tragically succumbed to the bite of a zombie and the bullet of Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) in the shocking mid-Season Two finale a couple months back on the hit AMC series. Now, as we prepare to watch the rest of Season 2 – and please, please, get these people off that damn farm already – we’ve been thinking about the award-winning comic book where it all began […]Read On »

By DANIEL SCHWEIGER

Where once it was unthinkable for film music to be anything but symphonic, the last few decades have seen a surrealistic explosion of composers hailing from the rock-pop world, many of who have taken their roots way beyond a simple drum roll, or strum of an electric guitar to picture.

Founding, and fronting the group Tindersticks, Hinchliffe’s often seedy, beautifully surrealistic sound […]Read On »

Cast: Ryan Seacrest, Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, Randy Jackson Network: Fox, airs Wednesdays and Thursdays @ 8 p.m. Original Telecast: Feb. 9, 2012 Was the first episode of Hollywood Round a new low for the world’s greatest karaoke competition, AMERICAN IDOL? I was reading a slew of reports about showing Symone Black falling from the stage and ending the show that way didn’t do the shows credibility any favors because it showed it wasn’t really interested or caring toward the individuals of the show. Credibility? Really? We are talking about a show that basically tells a bunch of amateur singers […]Read On »

Allen, Connor Paolo Writer: Nikki Toscano & Sallie Patrick Director: Tim Hunter Network: ABC, Wednesday nights, 10 p.m. Original Telecast: February 8, 2012 There is a problem with elaborate plans, such as Emily Thorne’s (Emily VanCamp) to exact REVENGE on Victoria and Conrad Grayson (Madeleine Stowe and Henry Czerny) for arranging to have Emily’s father David Clarke (James Tupper) wrongfully convicted of terrorism. You could even legitimately argue that it’s a problem inherent in the premise of the show, but we won’t. The more elaborate a plan is, the more things can go wrong. And in […]Read On »
