I know it looks like I wrote over 40 TV reviews in the last two days. That’s false. I started blogging on Tumblr, and I wanted to start a copycat blog on WordPress, so I moved most of my writing over here. I write about 5-10 reviews a week, and hopefully that number will grow in the fall. Stay tuned!
While writing my bio for TV Is My Pacifier, I thought long and hard about what TV show started my obsession with the small screen. As a tween, I do remember going out to dinner with my mom and giving her all the details about every single plot line on Roswell, one of my favorite shows at the time. For those of you who want to do the math, I’m only 24 now. Back then, I was definitely the only kid I knew that could give you the names of even the most obscure television actors, and although I followed

I like to eat my dessert first, so I’ll start with the best part of my Dallas recaps, my favorite JR quote of the night. He uses the expression, “Our girl’s crazier than an outhouse rat,” to describe Faux Marta to his new private investigator. The PI finds out that Marta is a bipolar stalker who becomes dangerously obsessed with her boyfriends. To pay back John Ross for lying to him about Marta’s identity, he hires the PI to catch John Ross with Elena so he can send Marta back to crazy town. The PI’s primary objective was to find

You know how we look back on the 80’s and laugh at the outfits they wore? I’m pretty sure kids in twenty years will look at Hanna Marin’s outfits and do the same thing. This week’s episode began in the Rosewood Grill, where the Liars speculate that Melissa was The Black Swan, which made me think that Melissa wasn’t actually the Black Swan, because the writers always try to lead you the wrong way at the beginning of the episode, write? right? All of a sudden, Jason barges in and confronts Mrs. Hastings about defending Garrett. We later see him posting signs

My first Melissa & Joey recap for NWN!
Again, with the repeats, Glee Project! “Do you ever read my blog? It’s gotten better.” That’s only one of many Barney Stinson quotes that are relevant to this show’s shortcomings. This week’s mentor was Naya Rivera, the obvious pick for the theme ‘Sexuality.’ Their homework assignment was “I Wanna Sex You Up,” a repeated song which is no longer sexy to me because of Stephen Tobolowsky’s inclusion in its performance on Glee. However, the fact that they didn’t use the “I know you’re not gonna sing that song” part greatly diminished my already negative opinion of the TGP performance. This

My first Secret Life recap for No White Noise, enjoy
This week on The Bachelorette was so intense! We started the trip to Prague with a one-on-one for my favorite contestant, Arie, who hadn’t told Emily about his former relationship with Cassie, a producer on the show. They don’t say for sure when Cassie tells Emily about Arie, but it seemed to me that it happened right before their date, or else she would have brought it up to him earlier. I’m also disappointed that the three of them had their big conversation about it off camera, but it’s their business, and most producers have the jobs they have because they

I’ve been watching Melissa & Joey since it started, so I know how questionable the plot lines can be. For instance, where did this Donald guy come from? We haven’t seen his and Mel’s relationship in any previous episodes, but more importantly, how would Mel even start dating this guy? He’s clingy, spineless, and his glasses are reminiscent of Dwight Schrute. After all, Melissa Joan Hart has always been a curvy woman and is currently trying to hide a pregnancy with strategically planned outfits(I see what you did there, stylists). However, she’s still beautifully blonde and just funny enough to

I think Charlie nailed it when he remarked about how hard it is to act vulnerable to a pounding beat. I’d like to remark about how hard it is to like The Glee Project when they keep repeating songs. Then Robert tells the contestants that this week’s guest mentor wrote the book on vulnerability. Puh-lease. Cory Montieth’s character was the captain and quarterback of the football team, dated the head cheerleader and a rising star, and co-captained the glee club to a national championship. Vulnerability my butt. I also think it feels just a little creepy when a male guest

At the behest of a friend and follower, I started watching the revamp of Dallas. If you hadn’t seen the above poster yet, let it be the first indication of how awesomely bad it is. Come on, nobody wants to see JR, Bobby and their wives in towels. If you’ve seen the first few episodes, you can also confirm that they added some definition to Jesse Metcalfe’s abs. I’m really happy they decided to do a continuation of the 1978 series and not a remake. We have the two sides of the family feuding, JR’s and Bobby’s, with little mention
