Well, NBC can finally say they’ve achieved greatness. They’re putting Roseanne Barr and John Goodman back on television. Continue reading

In this latest entry into the coming-of-age genre, Chris Colfer of angsty Glee fame, is now a snarky writer who wants nothing more than to be taken seriously, despite a bevy of underestimating adults, and has hopes of getting into the college of his choice, Northwestern University, even if he has to take down his entire high-school student body to get there. Continue reading
Somebody really believes in the temple that is John Stamotopoulos, or as we know him, John Stamos, AKA Uncle Jesse. This Fall he will star in his now third television series since he last uttered the words “Have Mercy.” Good God. “Have Mercy?” This was a thing? Ok, yes, this was a thing. Somewhere a diehard fan with a trunk full of Tiger Beat magazines just marked Fall 2012 as the best television season ever. Continue reading
Yes, discarded drifter, Ryan Phillippe, may have found a home this fall on the network Ashton Kutcher seduced with his talent for slovenly beach bum antics and nonsensical hair-flopping. These are the other things he does on that show about two guys co-habitating and walking around in their bathrobes for half the episode, right? Seriously, every time I flip past Two and a Half Men, somebody’s always in a bathrobe. Is the whole show shot from the perspective of a lazy boy recliner, or outside a bathroom shower? No matter, I’ve yet to meet an actual person who watches that show. Maybe it’s a long commercial for terry cloth and not an actual television program. Continue reading
Chris Brown has been in the news pretty much nonstop since the Grammy award telecast on Sunday night. He performed twice during the live show and was awarded a Grammy for Best R&B album — but the backlash in the aftermath has been swift. Not only for what many perceive as an award for domestic violence against then-girlfriend Rihanna by his return to the Grammy stage less than five years after the incident, but also for a series of tweets from his fans that extolled the virtues of being beaten by the singer, and now for an idiotic tweet Brown regaled the public with in some sort of “I have a Grammy Now, Eff Off” bit of a self-mutilating PR nightmare.

What will you be watching this fall? Perhaps you’ll tune into the network that made Sofia Vergara a household name, and by household name we mean in every commercial released within the last year, or so it seems. Modern Family and its continued reign in comedy aside, with the release of the potential 2012-2013 pilot season, ABC is hoping to cash in on fish out of water themes, families, the 99%, and stories that take place in hotels and apartment buildings. Did Donald Trump make a move that we don’t know about? ABC has also undoubtedly decided that they’re more than a network full of irascible families and BFF’s, they’ve got Mandy Moore.

So we made it through the first half of the season where we spent an inordinate amount of time looking for and grousing about long lost Sophia, whom by the end of it, many a viewer never wanted to see again, frankly. But there we were, in the climatic ending to the Fall finale and finally, (Dear God, FINALLY!) we got an answer to where the hell that little zombie chum wandered off to — and it was straight into the jaws of a zombie, that’s where. Continue reading
Remember when we said anyone who believes Mitt Romney gives a shit that you know he’s rich hasn’t been listening very closely? Yeah, well, not to be outdone, Rick Santorum has a message he’d like to share about his prescription for that little pesky thing called womanhood. Continue reading
NBC is reaching way down deep into the well of potentially bad ideas; Ellen Barkin to probably be magnificent in scripted television, oops, it’s on NBC; Well maybe it’ll work! Former talk show host to do an Oscar thing to imitate Oscar things she’s done in the past; Lucifer loses an actor; and Denzel to remake 2002 over and over again. Continue reading
Yep, you knew it. You’ll never get ahead because brown nosing, fantastic dickwad, Todd, has been given the gift of irreparable, yet disgustingly buoyant, job affinity, all with a miraculous amount of perseverance and persuasive inner manna that tells all superiors who encounter him that they should “Like the cut of his jib” and that “Todd is really going places.” Fucking Todd.
