I covered T&A travel a couple weeks ago with my review of Get Out! This week, I’m talking food travel shows. This might be more appropriate for CliqueClack Food, but I won’t be sharing any of my culinary secrets. (Unless you have a hankering for grilled cheese sandwiches.) The Travel Channel seems to schedule just […]
I’ve seen a lot of movies. I’ve also watched my share of television. So, why not combine the two into one weekly column. Movies and TV, or TV and movies. To quote Forrest Gump, they go “together like peas and carrots.” Ah, that Gump was a sage. An idiot, but a sage nonetheless. Anyway, “TV […]
Who says summer television stinks? Burn Notice returns this Thursday at 9pm, and it’s turning up the heat on season three. I got great satisfaction at being able to watch the first three episodes of my favorite show (it’s surpassed Lost) and provide my fellow “Burn” buddies a sneak peek into Michael Westen’s life after […]

If you’re a fan of scantily clad ladies prancing around exotic locales giggling at things that aren’t remotely funny, program […]
After six weeks of intense, nuanced drama, Rescue Me finally dropped a clunker last night. It was bound to happen, but it still pisses me off having to sit through an hour that offered very little in the way of entertainment.
