(2/1 – 2/7) Turns out, not much. If you watched the big game, you couldn’t have missed the heavy promotion for the new NBC Monday. Chuck, Heroes, and Medium all got plenty of exposure. There was even a song and dance number. The Office got its fair share as well, with the bonus of being […]
Rogue agents in crawlspaces, toxic insecticides, chaos in the White House … ah, it’s good to have 24 back, even if we’ve seen it all before. It’s been, well, 24 hours since I saw this week’s episode, and I’ve been trying to figure out what was noteworthy about it. I keep coming back to how […]
There was plenty of clacking going on inside my head this week, everything from those stupid KFC commercials to Moonlight to the Super Bowl. Take a peek, and let me know if you agree or disagree in the comments section: I wish 24 and Damages were better this season. Sure, it’s swell having them back, […]

(1/12 – 1/18) No. Not really. In fact, it was the lowest rated premiere the show has ever had. Somehow though, ABC managed to massage those numbers so much that they felt ok producing a promo that called it bigger than ever. It’s lipstick on a pig. DVR, streaming, illicit downloads, no matter what spin […]
(Season 7, Episode 5 – 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. ) Nothing about this episode really grabbed me until the last few minutes. And then it got fairly intense. But up until then, I was just, eh…. Watching this episode, I kept harking back to earlier seasons of 24: Jack shooting his friend (well, more […]
