Writer: Trey Parker Director: Trey Parker Network: Comedy Central, airs Wednesday nights Original Telecast: October 12, 2011 With “The Last of the Meheecans”, SOUTH PARK provides a pretty funny episode that takes on Border patrol agents, illegal immigrants sneaking into this county and Cartman once again going to extremes to win at something. While the humor here is not totally laugh out loud, it’s a solid run on spoofing America’s current problem with illegal immigrants sneaking into the U.S.A. The episode starts with the South Park kids playing a little game of Border Patrol Agents and Meheecans (I guess cowboys […]Read On »

CD Review: PAJAMA CLUB – self-titled debut

PAJAMA CLUB | ©2011 Lester Records

Fans of CROWDED HOUSE may be a bit surprised at the new side project by co-founder Neil Finn. The singer-songwriter, who has made a fine career out of expert pop craftsmanship that has evoked the best of the Beatles at times, tries something completely different with Pajama Club. Created with his wife Sharon (who shares vocals with him), the album is more synth heavy and totally alternative in sound and feel than Crowded House. The beautiful melodies and harmonies Finn and Crowded House are known for have been replaced by chunkier musicianship and songs that take a few listens before […]Read On »

  Stars: Chaz Bono, David Arquette, Nancy Grace, Robert Kardashian, Carson Kressley, Ricki Lake, J.R. Martinez, Chynna Phillips, Hope Solo Network: ABC, airs Mondays, Tuesdays Original Telecast: October 11th, 2011 Tonight’s episode of DANCING WITH THE STARS: movie theme week could have easily been titled DWTS: ONE FALSE MOVE. That’s exactly what happened to newly ousted Chynna Phillips who time and time again has performed brilliantly on the dance floor but, sadly, last night she just blanked out and lost concentration which cost her…dearly. She is the fourth celeb eliminated from DWTS: Season 13. Other than the weekly disappointment of […]Read On »

Cast: Jason O’Mara, Christine Adams, Byron Brockmann, Shelly Conn, Stephan Lang, Simone Kessell, Landon Liborion, Allison Miller Director: Nelson McCormick Writers: Byrnn Malone Network: Airs on Fox, Mondays @ 8pm Original Telecast: Oct. 10, 201 I really thought the dinosaurs in the pilot episode of TERRA NOVA were pretty good, well, as long as they didn’t move and just sat there looking big and dumb, but these last two episodes, wow, the special effects have gone from SyFy Channel quality to a notch above Ray Harryhausen. OK maybe that’s a bit harsh. Much like the special effects, the storylines in […]Read On »

Stars: Nathan Fillion, Stana Katic, Susan Sullivan, Molly Quinn, Tamala Jones, Seamus Deaver, Jon Huertas, Penny Johnson Jerold Writer: Moira Kirland Director: Rob Bowman Network: ABC, Monday nights, 10 p.m. Original Telecast: October 10, 2011 With “Kick the Ballistics”, CASTLE is really on. And it was on in this episode with a hey-nonny. When the body of a young woman, killed execution style, is found on a construction site, it seems more than a little odd that a college kid making extra bucks by tutoring should find herself the target of a mob hit. But the real shocker is when the ballistics come back […]Read On »

Martinez, Chynna Phillips, Hope Solo Network: ABC, airs Mondays, Tuesdays Original Telecast: October 10th, 2011 It’s movie theme night on DANCING WITH THE STARS and everyone hammed it up for the ballroom. The problem was, however, most fell short of the judges’ expectations, others – Ricki Lake and Derek Hough – wowed all three critics. There were no DWTS limits to the costumes, the scenery, even the stunts performed in honoring classic scores from MISSION IMPOSSIBLE, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN, FLASH […]Read On »

Exclusive Interview: Stephen Lang lands on TERRA NOVA

The characters in TERRA NOVA, which airs on Fox Mondays at 8 PM, have it rough. They’ve left behind the crowded, airless, polluted world of 2049 for the environs of Earth, circa 80 million years BC. There is fresh air and plentiful food, but there are also people-eating dinosaurs, power struggles and a supremely tough military man in charge, Commander Nathaniel Taylor, played by Stephen Lang. Lang (should anyone need reminding) also played badass baddie Col. Miles Quaritch in AVATAR, the most successful motion picture ever made. He was also the villain in this year’s remake of CONAN THE BARBARIAN, a […]Read On »

Stars: Joshua Jackson, John Noble, Anna Torv, Seth Gabel, Lance Reddick, Jasika Nicole Writer: David Fury Director: Miguel Sapochnik Network: Fox, airs Friday nights Original Telecast: October 7, 2011 Even though Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) has been wiped from the FRINGE timeline due to events at the end of Season 3, “Alone in the World” continues the Season 4 thread that not all of his presence has been properly eliminated. Walter (John Noble), his father, is starting to see the adult version of Peter pop up in mirrors and reflections in TV screens. He thinks he’s going crazy – and […]Read On »
