No big stars in them, but they might amuse. And they start online after tonight's "Grey's." Full announcement after the jump.

Monday Notebook & Viewing Catch-Up

November 16, 2009

Local folks should have noticed that WJW is carrying the Browns-Ravens game tonight (which makes me shudder just to think about). Fox's new episodes of "House" and "Lie to Me" have been moved to 7 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday respectively. (I am double-checking on the exact start time, since "House" usually runs an extra [...]

Straight Out of Lackawanna and Other Viewing Notes

October 30, 2009

Above, the "Male Prima Donna" video. Three minutes of "Office" merriment. After the jump, notes on "The Office," "30 Rock," "Grey's Anatomy," "Survivor: Samoa" and "CSI." And, before we get there, you can find my latest chat with Lynne Sherwin about "Dancing With the Stars" here.

Monday Notebook, Catching Up on TV

September 28, 2009

In case you missed it, my story about the movie "More Than a Game" (with comments from director Kris Belman, coach Dru Joyce II and LeBron James) is here. I will have a review in the Beacon Journal later this week, but I think the Sunday story makes clear that the review will be favorable.
The [...]

Thursday Notebook

July 23, 2009

Some inspirational verse:
"We took cognizance of the new synthetic folksiness that saturated certain programs and the excursions into political waters by these 'I-don't-know-anything-but-I-know-what-I-think" guys."
That "I-don't-know, etc." line is just about the best description I know of the current breed of commentators, TV and radio, and of the approach to news in which expressing an opinion [...]

Thursday Catch-Up: "Grey's Anatomy"

May 1, 2009

Before I get into a serious discussion of last night's episode, I have one of those too-much-viewing digressions to ask about. Did Izzie's mom, played by Sharon Lawrence, remind anyone else of Tammy Tambo (Wendy Schaal), Shelly's mom on "Northern Exposure"? No? Then let's move on. …

"The Amazing Race" And Other Viewing Notes

April 27, 2009

I know that synchronized diving is difficult, but why did neither Tammy/Victor nor Kisha/Jen trying counting out loud to get themselves in synch? "One … Two … Three … Jump!" would get you to at least a 3 or 4, wouldn't it?
More on "Race" after the jump, along with "30 Rock," "Parks and Recreation," [...]

Hunka Hunka TV Viewing: "Survivor," "30 Rock," "The Office," "Grey's"/"Practice"

February 13, 2009

I was glad to have "Survivor" back (and look forward even more to the return of "The Amazing Race") even though it added to the big steaming pile of viewing that is my Thursday night. That said, the season premiere did not offer much in the way of surprises, and I already fear that there's [...]

Stuff I've Been Watching

February 9, 2009

Notes on recent telecasts of "30 Rock," "The Office," "Private Practice," "Grey's Anatomy," "Saturday Night Live," "Bones," "Lie to Me" and "The Closer" after the jump. (I have also seen tonight's "Closer" and will make a brief non-spoiler comment about that.)

Friday Notebook

February 6, 2009

I had a couple of days off from my job, but not from everything else in my life, so I have gotten behind on my watch-and-blog routine. I would be happy to discuss Lord Rochester, "Imperfect Enjoyment" and the 1680 editions, if you're so inclined.
But if we're staying with TV, later today, I expect to [...]

Wrapping Up Thursday: "Bones," "Grey's Anatomy," "Private Practice"

January 24, 2009

With new and returning shows occupying more and more of winter nights, and with a couple of evening classes on my plate, I've been hoping to find a way to free up some hours. And I think I got two this week. …

Morning Briefly

January 16, 2009

I have a few columns to write this AM so I'm going to postpone extended griping and cheering until later. But after the jump is my brief look at Thursday's shows.

"Scrubs": The Low-Fat "Grey's Anatomy" Alternative

January 6, 2009

"Scrubs" returns to TV tonight, this time on ABC. And while I've never been a huge fan of the show, I have belatedly warmed to it for the reason hinted at in the title of this post. …

When Is It Too Late To Start Watching a Serialized Show?

December 17, 2008

What an exciting scene! And who are all you people?
A copy of "Battlestar Galactica Season 4.0" landed on my desk today. And, as has been the case with some previous "BSG" on DVD, I asked myself if it was finally the right time to start watching the show. Especially if I started watching without going [...]
