Honestly, at this point I’m not sure why I’m even going to be giving season four of Heroes a chance. I’ve been a bit frustrated with the show since it’s stellar first season. Season two saw a big drop off in quality from the first, in my opinion. Then, show runner Tim Kring promised the […]
I’ve always thought that Betty was emotionally immature, but it was never more clear than in this episode. Throughout the first two seasons of Mad Men, Betty has shown an almost clinical inability to face any unsavory situation.

It seems like whenever one of those lists of greatest TV moments comes out, The Beatles playing The Ed Sullivan Show is always way up at the top. It definitely is one of the most famous musical performances that has ever been on television. With The Beatles: Rock Band coming out this week (September 9th […]

Oddly enough, it would appear that Roger and Jane are the happiest couple, even as Don […]

Some shows choose to have each season deal with a unique mystery, other shows have one huge mystery that spans the entire run of the program. Then there are shows like Lost that seem to introduce a new MacGuffin in every episode, […]
