Greenberg Director: Millicent Shelton, Stephen Surjik Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: October 3, 2011 WAREHOUSE 13 decided to go out this season with a bang. Literally. The two part finale “Emily Lake / Stand” deals with a ton of loose ends from last season and this season, and also creates a HUGE set of cliffhangers for next year! Walter Sykes (Anthony Michael Hall) complex plan of revenge and […]Read On »

DVD Review: iCARLY: THE COMPLETE 3rd SEASON

iCARLY: THE COMPLETE 3RD SEASON DVD | ©2011 Paramount Home Entertainment

Cast: Miranda Cosgrove, Jennette McCurdy, Nathan Kress, Noah Munck Distributor: Paramount Home Entertainment Suggested Retail Price: $19.99 I hate to admit it, but Nickelodeon’s iCARLY has proven to be one of the best sitcoms around. It’s traditional in its structure, and yes it’s geared toward Tweens, but it’s above and beyond many sitcoms on Network TV and it puts most of Disney’s Tween-coms to shame. Why it works is creator Dan Schneider’s knack for telling strange, bizarre stories within traditional sitcom framework. iCARLY is centered around teenager Carly Shay (Miranda Cosgrove) who is the host of a popular Internet show […]Read On »

DVD Review: VICTORIOUS – Season One – Volume 1

VICTORIOUS - Season 1 - Volume 1 | ©2011 Paramount Home Entertainment

Cast: Victoria Justice, Leon Thomas III, Matt Bennett, Elizabeth Gillies, Ariana Grande, Avan Jogia, Daniella Monet, Michael Eric Rein, Eric Lange Distributor: Paramount Home Entertainment Suggested Retail Price: $19.99 While Dan Schneider has found success with Nickelodeon over the years with DRAKE AND JOSH and ZOEY 101, it was iCARLY that really gave him some mojo and parent cred for his incredible strange sitcom about an internet web show hosted by two Tween girls. It’s a concept that could have been unbearable, but it grew into a gargantuan hit and continues to surprise with its offbeat storytelling. Capitalizing on that […]Read On »

TV Review: REVENGE – Season 1 – “Betrayal”

Stars: Emily VanCamp, Madeleine Stowe, Henry Czerny, Josh Bowman, Nick Wechsler, Gabriel Mann, Ashley Madekwe, Christa B. Allen, Connor Paolo Writer: Salvatore Stabile Director: Matt Earl Beesley Network: ABC, Wednesday nights, 10 p.m. Original Telecast: October 5, 2011 One of the devout wishes I had for REVENGE, a supposed modernized look at THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO in which Emily Thorne (Emily Van Camp) seeks to trash everyone connected with her father’s wrongful arrest and conviction for crimes he did not commit, was that it would not turn into Emily’s victim of the week. Alas, the show seems to be headed in just that direction. The show is set in the Hamptons, where […]Read On »

Stars: Dylan McDermott, Connie Britton, Jessica Lange, Taissa Farmiga, Evan Peters, Frances Conroy, Denis O’Hare, Alexandra Breckenridge, Jamie Brewer Writers: Ryan Murphy & Brad Falchuk, series created by Ryan Murphy & Brad Falchuk Director: Ryan Murphy Network: FX, Wednesdays @ 10 PM Original Telecast: October 5, 2011 It’s difficult to do serialized straight-up horror on a weekly television series, which is probably why almost no one ever tries it. Before anyone cites, for example, THE X-FILES and BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, let us remember that the former had as one of its mottos “I Want to Believe” and “Trust No […]Read On »

TV Review: SOUTH PARK – Season 15 – “Ass Burgers”

Cartman and the school nurse in SOUTH PARK - Season 15 - "Ass Burgers" | ©2011 Comedy Central

Writer: Trey Parker Director: Trey Parker Network: Comedy Central, airs Wednesday nights Original Telecast: October 5, 2011 June’s mid-season finale of SOUTH PARK  ended on the brilliant “You’re Getting Old” episode where Stan realized that by turning ten, the world had literally turned to crap and he had become a miserable cynic. The episode ended with his parents getting a divorce and Stan moping around town as the Stevie Nicks song “Landslide” played. It was a brilliant end to an uneven Season 15, and as the second half of SOUTH PARK returns with “Ass Burgers,” we get the pay-off that […]Read On »

If so, GLEE – Season 3 may have officially started. “Asian F” is one of those startlingly good episodes of GLEE – one that sneaks up from behind and reminds you why the show can be so good and focused when it wants to be. Many […]Read On »

Martinez, Chynna Phillips, Hope Solo Network: ABC, airs Mondays, Tuesdays Original Telecast: October 4th, 2011 Mary J. Blige opened DANCING WITH THE STARS tonight to an excitable audience after all the melodrama of last night’s “most memorable year” show. If last night’s show was heavy tonight’s was the opposite. It was as if a load had been lifted. DWTS therapy was in session. And then came the shocker! Kristin Cavallari was eliminated from the show. Wow! Although she and partner Mark Ballas tied for […]Read On »

Stars: Nathan Fillion, Stana Katic, Susan Sullivan, Molly Quinn, Tamala Jones, Seamus Deaver, Jon Huertas, Penny Johnson Writer: David Grae Director: Holly Dale Network: ABC, Monday nights, 10 p.m. Original Telecast: October 3, 2011 The case latest CASTLE case starts with a lot of blood – enough that it’s pretty obvious that a stiff is involved. And Det. Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) and author Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion) are, for the moment, more absorbed in Castle’s daughter’s latest crisis. It seems Alexis (Molly Quinn) is learning the hard way the truth of that great Rolling Stones anthem, “You Can’t Always Get What You Want.” Things […]Read On »
