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. …

"Idol," Welcome Back, "Veronica Mars"

January 24, 2007

Last night a little after 9, I turned on "American Idol" and it wasn't very good. There was this guy from Texas, and he didn't really sing. He talked instead. His audition went on forever, it seemed, even though the judges weren't all that excited by what he did.
All right, I'm kidding. In fact, we [...]

Veronica Marvelous

September 15, 2006

Sometimes getting to see shows ahead of time can be frustrating. In July, a bunch of us saw a new episode of "The Shield." It was really good. But the show doesn't come back on the air until January. So there was considerable whining about having to wait to see more. It was like getting [...]

"Veronica Mars"

May 3, 2006

If last night's episode was the last of the season, it would be a pretty dazzling ending. (One quibble: Shouldn't Veronica have thought of Mac as math tutor? First person I thought of.) Once again, money and power had reigned in Neptune. Justice would be denied. Veronica, Logan, Keith, Wallace — all would have emotional [...]

"Sopranos" and Other Tidbits (With Some More "Veronica")

April 24, 2006

I laughed — very hard — at "The Sopranos" on Sunday night. Wasn't alone, either, since this was a night in our regular "Sopranos" gatherings with co-workers, so the laughter was not mine alone. The Ben Kingsley stuff was funny enough. Mugging Lauren Bacall — one of those things where you think, oh, no, they [...]

After the Bunny Hopped…

April 17, 2006

I did not expect to go this long between posts, but the days filled themselves up — chasing down a cat to take to the vet, putting a fence back up around a flower bed, Easter morning at church, grocery shopping, giving the grill its spring inaugural. Today at work I was hip-deep in a [...]

A Little Bit of Drama

April 11, 2006

In spite of the ambition in yesterday's post, the day got away from me. I had a story about SportsTime Ohio that ended up consuming part of the day and evening; it was after 8 p.m. before I had the information I needed to write. And while I was working on that, I was trying [...]

"Veronica Mars"

March 30, 2006

I've been waiting several weeks for a really good new "Veronica." I don't think last night's was it.
Part of my objection may be plot fatigue, which was also a factor in last night's "Lost." This late in the season, I don't want just another hint. I want answers. And I don't feel as if I'm [...]

Notes From A Viewing Life

March 22, 2006

2.I'll be in a cone of silence re "Veronica Mars" for the next few days, since it's being pre-empted on the local UPN affiliate for a Cleveland Cavs game. Have already made note of the delayed-telecast time — 9 p.m. Saturday — and now just have to remember to set the DVR.
I suppose I should [...]

The Expectations Game

March 18, 2006

When I finally sat down to see Wednesday's telecast of "Veronica Mars," I was ready to be dazzled. It felt as if it had been forever since there had been a new episode, and I was long past ready for one.
The episode was all right, not great. I did like the scenes with Logan, since [...]

Are the Olympics in for a Bad Night?

February 15, 2006

"Grey's Anatomy" beat the Olympics Sunday night in the national ratings. "American Idol" crushed the games on Tuesday night, and "House" did so in some markets (including Northeast Ohio). I see a bad night coming for the Olympics.
Why tonight? New "Idol," for one thing, where the field will be narrowed one more time before fan [...]

"Lost," "Veronica Mars"

February 8, 2006

I reversed some of my viewing tonight. My wife was out for most of the evening, so I recorded "Lost" and waited for her return, since that's one of the shows we like to watch together. Instead, I watched "Veronica Mars" in real time. And, because this was one of those nights with lots of [...]
