TV Talk: The Weekend
Talk about all the crazy stuff that happened on TV over the weekend, which includes Friday night.
I caught up on two episodes of Life and really feel like the show is as good as ever. The Soup was absolutely hysterical as always.
There was chick wrestling on The Amazing Race, which was entertaining, but also must [...]
NBC Premieres Five Shows on Hulu a Week Early
No matter how much I’ll always be angry at NBC for cancelling Journeyman, they do seem to know what they are doing when it comes to online content.
Instead of shirking away from streaming their shows for free online, they are now taking an even bigger step forwards. Five NBC shows that premiere in the next two months can be seen a week early right there on Hulu.
What To Rent: New DVD releases for 9/2/08
I almost missed doing my weekly DVD picks because of the beautiful holiday we just had throwing me off a day. But here they are and it’s actually a great week for television, which appears to be the norm as of late. Am I the only one noticing the trend lately of better stuff coming out for television than movies?
More than likely it’s just the time of the year, as last season’s stuff arrives just in time for you to frantically catch up with your favorite shows.
Mike’s Fall TV Preview: Fridays
Friday nights are a different breed of television. You can usually find some obscure, offbeat show on that night that doesn’t seem to fit elsewhere. Firefly, The X-Files, Battlestar Galactica, Ghost Whisperer, Moonlight and others are some examples.
Those shows lean more towards my kind of tastes in our house, and it’s always made Friday nights fun for me. You could go out, see a movie, have dinner, see some friends yet still know when you get home, be it 10, 11 or midnight, you have BSG or The X-Files waiting patiently for your return.
Mike’s Fall TV Preview – Mondays
Today you’re getting a double-dose of my Fall TV Preview. Sunday has been posted and now it’s time for the jammed packed Monday night.
At least, it’s jammed packed over in my house. There is almost too much on to record, so thank the DVR gods that we have two of those fancy recording machines to make sure we don’t miss a single episode of our favorite series.
New preview for season 2 of Life
In this summer of Comic-Con, superhero movies, hype about Lost, Battlestar Galactica, Heroes and others, somehow one of my favorite new shows from last season has been overlooked on this site.
Maybe there just hasn’t been a lot of news to talk about, but either way, I’ve missed it and am indeed looking forward to seeing what’s in store for Life this coming season.

8 things I missed during the Writer’s Strike
Now that our favorite shows are close to being back in production and new episodes are just around the corner, I started thinking about the things I missed during those horrible three months. Stuff like The Office, Pam Beesly, Amy Poehler, etc.
Some shows aren’t even going to come back for awhile, but there were moments [...]
‘Life’ hits its stride in fall finale
*some spoilers ahead if you haven’t seen the finale*
I haven’t talked about Life much, other than an earlier blog about it being picked up for a full season, which is great news.
But I’ve never stopped watching it and it’s really grown on me. I liked it right off, especially Damian Lewis who plays the lead [...]
