I'm tired and grumpy this morning from staying up late last night to catch the post-Super Bowl "Office." (It happens every year, but it needs to be said: thanks, NFL and sportscasters, for dragging out a supposedly hour-long game for roughly...

I want to love "RuPaul's Drag Race." I really do. I feel like my entire reality TV-watching life has led to this moment. And yet, after Monday night's debut episode, I am not in love. I am barely in like. I don't understand how you take the...

Ah, Hollywood week:� The end of the seemingly nonstop horrible auditions; the real beginning of the "American Idol" season (well, at least in my humble opinion). But, last night's episode was not quite as exciting as I wanted it to be....

It's GROUP NIGHT! My favorite episode of the season. I was incensed last year when they cut the group numbers from Hollywood. The producers learned their lesson, and not only is Group Night back, it's more dramatic than ever.
It's practically...

Hollywood week is over - kind of - and last night we went from 70something to 50something. While I don't disagree with anyone who got cut from the one room sent home, I think at least one more room full of these chuds should have gotten the...

This year, instead of The Chair episode that whittled down our remaining contestants to the semifinalists, the producers decided to change things up and go to Judges' Mansion. It was as silly as it sounds. However, it did add one fun little...

I'm having a really hard time reconciling "Tool Academy" lately. On the one hand, the show is AWESOME. Where else can you watch complete douchebags willingly engage in group therapy using personalized sock puppets to discuss their sexual...

Stevie Wright is 17, cute as hell, and doomed. She sang "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift, a song I've never heard, but think I may like if I heard it sung by someone competent.

First off, these "super-sized" episodes are killing me. It ended after 11:15 p.m., and I didn't get to bed until after 11:30 p.m., which made it difficult to get up this morning, which meant I was late for work. Was it essential for me to find...

I was told the results shows would only be a half-hour this year. I thought we had a deal, "Idol." You don't waste my time, I don't waste yours. But last night we got an hour full of filler, kicked off by a group number to "I'm Yours" by Jason...

Back on February 6-8 I attended the New York Comic Con in New York City. This is the second NYCC I've gone to - the first was in 2007 - and in the intervening two years the con went from huge to gobsmackingly ginormous.

UGH!
That was my primary reaction watching last night's telecast of the 81st Annual Academy Awards. What should be frothy and light and entertaining was instead grueling; a seemingly unending parade through awards nobody cares about and...

So first off, big thanks to S3's Casey for completely destroying Carla's chances at the win. GOD. And she was doing so well before that third course...

I think we've reached the point in the season where I need to start lowering my expectations. It's not that last night's "Idol" was terrible - the lows weren't as low as last week's Group 1, that's for sure. But the highs also weren't as high....

Missed the show since I had to see "Jersey Boys" (look for that review in Wednesday's paper), but just got the word on our three successful semifinalists. Broadway boy Adam Lambert was hardly a surprise, given his heavy pimping by the show and...
