I love when two of my favorite things come together – peanut butter and jelly, chicken wings and beer, television and the Internet. That last one has brought good and bad things lately. The good part involves my discovery of Hulu. For the uninitiated, Hulu is a website where you can find full episodes of […]
Every year, my wife and I struggle with a very difficult question – should we add any new TV shows to our rotation? When we do, we usually hear about something a few months in that other friends suggest or gets some really good publicity. This year, however, we took a different strategy. When TNT […]
My wife and I take a lot of pride in our TV viewing habits. We have a carefully orchestrated schedule which keeps us entertained without causing a lot of fuss. Luckily, the shows we watch very rarely overlap. We have a Tivo, but it is a single-tuner machine so we have to be careful when […]
One of the best shows on TV came back last night. Scrubs now airs on ABC and we got a double-shot of episodes that reminded me why the show always sucks me in. First off, they had the goofy first episode with the new chief and interns learning about how strange a place Sacred Heart […]
I generally have a hopeful personality. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. I can easily forgive. But I have had it up to here with the television industry. Shortly after the new year, the Screen Actor’s Guild will vote on whether or not to strike. Yes, just a year after the […]
Today is the traditional day to celebrate George Costanza’s least-favorite holiday. Feel free to use the comments to air your grievances and may you emerge victorious from the feats of strength.

One of the cable networks presented a show called “A Miser Brothers’ Christmas” or something like that. They dedicated 60 minutes to this brand-new program which never should […]
On a day where we give thanks, I will give thanks to a very special part of America – Las Vegas. Thanks to the fine folks at Five Hundy by Midnight, I decided to take a gander at a new show on truTV (formerly Court TV) called “Rehab: Party at the Hard Rock Hotel.” I’ll […]
CBS likes to promote their successful Monday night lineup of comedy shows. They really hang their hat on “Two and a Half Men” and one of my favorite shows “How I Met Your Mother.” But lately, the first show of the night has threatened to take their thunder. Plain and simple, “Big Bang Theory” has […]
I love football. I also love cable television. Therefore, to see as much football as I want, I make sure I get a high-level cable TV package. That’s how it works, people. Sometimes you have to pay for what you want. I don’t know why Arlen Specter and a bunch of other bored senators don’t […]
