Wednesday Notebook: "Reaper," "NCIS," "HIMYM," "Men," "House" — And Yes, a Little More "American Idol"

May 21, 2008

Could we take a minute to talk about what a good actor Mark Harmon is?

Into the Scripted: "Reaper," "Bones," "House"

April 30, 2008

Nice to see Lucy Davis again. Even better to see that she was still around at the end of the episode.
Trying to catch up on things I've missed. Am sampling the "Costas Now" town meeting, including the Bissinger rant/debate.(Good gosh, Braylon Edwards, what did you think you had walked into?) But here I'm going [...]

Friday Notebook

February 8, 2008

Bits of this and that …
– You may have seen the report of Randy Quaid's bad behavior. Considering all the stories told over the years about stars acting up, I've wondered how far someone would have to go to be punished. I guess we now have some idea of how far that is. And it's [...]

Tuesday TV: Christmas in January

January 29, 2008

I've been trying to muster some deep thought about the "American Idol" auditions in Omaha, but it wasn't a very interesting telecast — and sent relatively few people to Hollywood. But the blahs from that were made up for by "House," even if it was a Christmas episode airing off-season (since Fox obviously hoarded some [...]

Catching Up: "Pushing Daisies," "Private Practice," "Grey's Anatomy," "Dirty Sexy Money," "House"

October 13, 2007

The scene that persuaded me to watch "Pushing Daisies" at least once more.
(You know, after listening to Chip Caray declare "Here come the Yankees" too many times, it was kind of nice just now to hear Joe Buck punctuate a Cleveland rally with "Here come the Indians." But that's not what I'm here to talk [...]

New Season Stunts: "House" For One

September 25, 2007

Resumes a new season tonight on Fox.
I've been worried about spoilers for tonight's season premiere of "House." But the network's promos spoil one good joke, as well as giving away the closing scene of the episode, so there's not a lot left to spoil. And I suspect that tonight's promo for next week's episode will [...]

Weekend Notebooks, Part 1 & 2

August 18, 2007

My review of "High School Musical 2" is here. My review of "Superbad" is here.
After the jump, Barry Corbin, and the perils of magazine deadlines … and a new part 2, with "Damages," "Mad Men," "Rescue Me" (so beware of spoilers if you haven't caught up)…

Watching: "Veronica Mars," "Gilmore Girls," "House," "Friday Night Lights"

February 1, 2007

Thanks to the completion of a couple of projects and weather that makes me want to stay indoors, I've been keeping better pace with my TV faves of late. …

"House" Season 3 (Contains Spoilers)

September 5, 2006

I have been talking around some of the plot developments in tonight's season premiere of "House" (including in a new podcast you can find at www.ohio.com) because it does make a difference to see the early scenes without preconceptions.
But several of my colleagues have already blabbed, so I might as well do likewise. And if [...]

"House" Two-Parter

May 1, 2006

This weekend was a "House" triple-header: finally catching up to the DVR of last week's episode, followed by the two-part telecast airing this week (at 9 p.m. Tuesday and then 8 p.m. Wednesday).
There is one link between last week and this week — the intersection of faith and medicine. Last week, of course, that was [...]

"House"

February 5, 2006

Well, it's Super Bowl morning and they're talking about the game on ESPN's 'Sports Reporters" (today's lineup: Albom, Wilbon, Lupica). But I'm still thinking about "House." The bride and I wound down last night by watching a disc of two new episodes, including the one airing Tuesday.
In some ways, it's very familiar "House" — complicated [...]

"House" Calling

January 12, 2006

Playboy magazine will have a "20 Questions" session with "House's" Hugh Laurie in its February issue (on sale tomorrow). Here are some excerpts the magazine sent along:
On being a Clint Eastwood fan: “I grew up in the shadow of Dirty Harry. Yes, I can’t deny it. House has elements of Dirty Harry in the [...]

Fox Looks at January

November 30, 2005

As was the case with Simon Cowell's rumored departure from "American Idol," talk about Fox moving around telecasts of "Idol" proved premature. Cowell is back, as is noted below, and "Idol" will remain a Tuesday/Wednesday fixture.
Fox planned changes in January because it is bringing back "Idol" and "24," and they eat up time slots. So [...]

"House" and Around the House

November 28, 2005

Well, that cold I mentioned is a persistent creature, and one I'm getting very tired of. It's been hanging on today, so after a brief stop at the office, I came home to work. Which proved more difficult since my cable was out for a couple of hours, not only knocking out the TV but [...]
