Steve Jones, Nicole Sherzinger, Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and L.A. Reid in THE X FACTOR - Season 1 | ©2011 Fox/

Cast: Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, Antonio Reid, Cheryl Cole, Nicole Scherzinger Network: Fox, airs on Wednesdays and Thursdays Original Telecast: Sept. 21, 2011 I’ve got a funny feeling going here … Simon Cowell (and his too-tight shirts and new eyeliner) and Paul Abdul (and her crying and weird clapping) doing a music competition/reality show. A bunch of talented singers and a bunch of crazies and losers. Similar audition stories and a pompous host that is more annoying than anything else. But wait … it’s still hot outside? So yeah there are a little too many familiarities to THE X FACTOR […]Read On »

CD Review: THE DEVIL’S DOUBLE soundtrack

By DANIEL SCHWEIGER
THE DEVIL'S DOUBLE soundtrack | ©2011 Lakeshore Records

Uday Hussein has a rocking good time ravaging Iraq under dad’s carte blanche, not to mention the protection of a hapless look-a-like. It’s a musically mesmerizing balance between the fruits of evil, and an onlooker’s moral anguish, two tones merged into one beast for this killer alt. bio score by Christian Henson. Just when you think you’ve heard it all in the sinister soundtrack land of Middle East-meets-west rhythms, THE DEVIL’S DOUBLE arrives to kick the genre in the ass as its antagonist does far worse things to his people. Not only does it help that Henson was a programmer […]Read On »

CD Review: VIENTO EN CONTRA soundtrack

VIENTO EN CONTRA soundtrack | ©2011 Movie Score Media

Alfons Conde, a Spanish composer better known among horror fans for the Movie Score Media releases of his utterly sinister soundtracks to THE ABANDONED, THE DARK HOUR and NO-DO finally gets the opportunity to score a film where a woman gets to fight back against evil odds. In the case of MSM’s VIENTO EN CONTRA (AGAINST THE WIND), it’s a female executive who’s set up for a murder, and has to become a fugitive with her kid in tow. As with a heroine’s dead aim that seems to come out of nowhere in a film like this, Conde plugs us […]Read On »

Zooey Deschanel in NEW GIRL - Season 1 | ©2011 Fox/Autumn Dewilde

Stars: Zooey Deschanel, Jake Johnson, Max Greenfield, Damon Wayans, Jr. (pilot), Lamorne Morris (post-pilot), Hannah Simone Writer: Elizabeth Meriwether, series created by Elizabeth Meriwether Director: Jake Kasdan Network: Fox, Tuesdays @ 9 PM Original Telecast: September 20, 2011 How one reacts to NEW GIRL depends in large part on how one reacts to its leading lady Zooey Deschanel. Deschanel (sister of BONES’ Emily Deschanel) is adorable in the way that kittens and bunnies are adorable. This is not to say there is anything infantile about her – Deschanel is bright and funny and sexy in a perfectly grown-up way – but […]Read On »

Sarah Michelle Gellar in RINGER - Season 1 - "She's Ruining Everything" | ©2011 The CW/Michael Desmond

Stars: Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kristoffer Polaha, Ioan Gruffudd, Nestor Carbonell, Mike Colter, Tara Summers, Zoey Deutch Writers: Eric Charmelo, Nicole Snyder Director: Rob Bailey Network: The CW, airs Tuesday nights Original Telecast: September 20, 2011 Here’s the problem with RINGER, the new CW soap opera/thriller starring Sarah Michelle Gellar as twin sisters who invade each other’s lives. A) It’s not very good. B) As much as it’s commendable that Gellar wants to do something that’s not BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, picking a project where she’s not allowed to kick-ass and take names is incredibly hard to get used to. She […]Read On »

Stars: Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Darren Criss, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Heather Morris, Matthew Morrison, Amber Riley, Naya Rivera, Mark Salling, Harry Shum Jr., Jenna Ushkowitz Writer: Brad Falchuk Director: Eric Stoltz Network: Fox, airs Tuesday nights Original Telecast: September 20, 2011 Sorry to say this, but I think GLEE is officially over.  Some may even say it jumped the shark, but I think that already happened last year. The season three premiere “The Purple Piano Project” already feels like the show has “been there, done that” hitting some of the same beats as […]Read On »

TV Review: UNFORGETTABLE – Season 1 – “Pilot” – Series Premiere

Poppy Montgomery in UNFORGETTABLE - Season 1 | ©2011 CBS/Robert Ascroft

Stars: Poppy Montgomery, Dylan Walsh, Michael Gaston, Kevin Rankin, Daya Vaidya Writers: John Bellucci & Ed Redlich, series created by John Bellucci & Ed Redlich, based on the book by J. Robert Lennon Director: Niels Arden Oplev Network: CBS, Tuesdays @ 10 PM Original Telecast: September 20, 2011 Some crime procedural TV series have a genuinely original take on how to tell stories about murder investigations. Many other crime procedurals copy one another, changing a few details to avoid confusion and lawsuits. UNFORGETTABLE is one of the latter. True, no other character on television has our heroine Carrie Wells’ (Poppy […]Read On »

Stars: Chaz Bono, Ron Artest, David Arquette, Elisabetta Canalis, Kristin Cavallari, Nancy Grace, Robert Kardashian, Carson Kressley, Ricki Lake, J.R. Martinez, Chynna Phillips, Hope Solo Network: ABC, airs Mondays, Tuesdays Original Telecast: September 20th, 2011 And so it begins…the first elimination of DANCING WITH THE STARS season 13 has commenced and Ron Artest or whatever his name is now (Metta what?) is cast away. There’s no suspense in his departure, after all, he did receive the lowest scores and maybe, just maybe, people weren’t buying his Dennis Rodman like antics. Still, it is hard to be the first one to […]Read On »

Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs in TWO BROKE GIRLS - Season 1 | ©2011 CBS/Monty Brinton

Stars: Kat Dennings, Beth Behrs, Garrett Morris, Matthew Moy, Jonathan Kite Writers: Michael Patrick King, Whitney Cummings Director: James Burrows Network: CBS, airs Monday nights Original Telecast: September 19, 2011 You can’t stop mediocrity. Every year, half of the new shows wallow in a sameness that you can never quite escape. Whether it’s the umpteenth drama featuring cops or doctors or the 10,000th comedy featuring “friends.” CBS launches 2 BROKE GIRLS which is another one of those “friends” shows about two girls who are broke who strike up a friendship and try to find a way out of their horrible […]Read On »
