Fade in on “Valkyrie” with Beckett (Stana Katic) thrilled that he proposed. It’s CASTLE, of course it’s not clear cut. Turns out she was afraid he was trying to break up. But here’s where it gets good. Instead of being a jerk about her new job and insisting […]Read On »

Kelley Director: Jason Winer Network: CBS, airs Thursday nights Original Telecast: September 26, 2013 There’s something fresh and exciting about the new CBS comedy THE CRAZY ONES.

How many more of these horrible parent sitcoms do we have to endure this fall season (DADS, MOM, etc.). ABC takes another swing at the bat with BACK IN THE GAME which, like THE GOLDBERGS features a rough around the edges dad who doesn’t know how to communicate, comes off as a total ass, but deep down means well.

Stars: George Segal, Jeff Garlin, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Sean Giambrone, Troy Gentile, Hayley Orrantia Writers: Adam F. Goldberg Director: Seth Gordon Network: ABC, airs Tuesday nights Original Telecast: September 24, 2013 There’s a lot to be said about the 1980s, especially if you grew up in them. The material is ripe for the picking in the appropriate hands, in this case those hands would be that of Adam Goldberg whose THE GOLDBERGS is loosely based on his own life growing up in during that decade. The premise is simplistic in its rarest form. A family of five dealing with everything a […]Read On »
