Cast: Ryan Seacrest, Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, Randy Jackson Network: Fox, airs Wednesdays and Thursdays @ 8 p.m. Original Telecast: March 29, 2012 It was go-home time on the world’s greatest karaoke competition, AMERICAN IDOL, as once again someone gets the boot. As you know by now, Heejun Han got eliminated with Hollie Cavanaugh and Skylar Laine in the bottom three. I’ll break down how it happened in terms of the elimination as usual with the benefit of you not having to sit through another lame Ford commercial, footage of the contestants moving into the mansion (although Skylar’s reactions were […]Read On »

Cast: Ryan Seacrest, Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, Randy Jackson Network: Fox, airs Wednesdays and Thursdays @ 8 p.m. Original Telecast: March 28, 2012 Something interesting happened last week on the world’s greatest karaoke competition, AMERICAN IDOL, I got all the picks right. I’m as shocked as you. I predicted that Erika Van Pelt, Heejun Han and DeAndre Brackensick would be in the bottom and that Erica would be going home. That’s what happened. I guess the sun does shine on a dog’s ass every so often. Anyway, this week on IDOL the contestants are singing songs from their own personal […]Read On »

Stars: Ginnifer Goodwin, Jennifer Morrison, Robert Carlyle, Lana Parrilla, Jared Gilmore, Josh Dallas, Raphael Sbarge Writer: Vladimir Cvetko & David H. Goodman Director: Ralph Hemecker Network: ABC, Sunday nights, 8 p.m. Original Telecast: March 25, 2012 How much you like “Hat Trick” will depend a lot on how you define Fairy Tales. If you believe that ONCE UPON A TIME should restrict itself to Grimm, Andersen and maybe folklore, then you’re not going to like this episode. If you’re fine with including any Disney property involving magic (and you know it will all be Disney), then this dabble into the world of Wonderland will be just fine, especially since we’ve […]Read On »

Cast: Sarah Jones, Jorge Garcia, Sam Neill, Parminder Nagra, Jonny Coyne, Robert Forster Writers: Jennifer Johnson, Daniel Pyne Director: Aaron Lipstadt Network: Fox, airs Mondays @ 9 p.m. Original Telecast: March 26, 2012 It’s not just San Francisco. That’s pretty much what we learned on the season finale of ALCATRAZ “Tommy Madsen”. Warden James (Jonny Coyne) has sent inmates from The Rock (and maybe other places) all over the U.S. Why he is sending these people to the present day – some 50 years into the future – is unclear. It actually is even less clear than when the whole […]Read On »

Cast: Sarah Jones, Jorge Garcia, Sam Neill, Parminder Nagra, Jonny Coyne, Robert Forster Writers: Leigh Dana Jackson, Coleman Herbert Director: Eagle Egilsson Network: Fox, airs Mondays @ 9 p.m. Original Telecast: March 26, 2012 While billed as the season finale of ALCATRAZ, the first episode of the two-hour finale was more of a setting the stage for the second hour which was actually the finale. In “Garrett Stillman”, the Alcatraz retrieval crew is on the hunt for Stillman, a notorious thief that in the present day is once again up to his old ways robbing three armored cars in order […]Read On »

As the Fox thriller series ALCATRAZ has progressed, we’ve learned a little bit about the mysterious Warden Edwin James (Jonny Coyne) as flashbacks have revealed some of the strange things he’s been up to in the 1960s – many of which could be indirectly or directly responsible for the inmates disappearing and now suddenly reappearing in present day San Francisco. It’s in these flashbacks where many questions have come up such as “What’s behind the mysterious door, what’s the Warden doing with the inmates blood and how does he fit into all of this?” ASSIGNMENT X caught up with the […]Read On »

AMC’s hit MAD MEN begins its fifth season tonight in a two-hour block starting at 9 PM, before settling into its regular slot at 10 PM next week. Series creator Matthew Weiner has requested that the press not to give away things like exactly when the new crop of episodes are set time-wise in relation to Season Four, and he’s no doubt also asked his actors to be tight-lipped with details. John Slattery has been nominated for the Emmy for Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series four years in a row for his portrayal of the suave yet heart attack-prone […]Read On »
