    Winter Season 2011-2012: New Shows

    Once upon a time, there were only two seasons on TV: Fall and Summer. Now, things being what they are, we should just be honest and admit that there are four. Forget this “mid-season premiere” fallacy. If we’re luck, a season these days is 12 episodes. Shows that do 20+ episodes a year are, effectively,…

    Fall Season 2011: More Reviews

    Okay, we’re now a few weeks into the new season and everything I planned on watching has premiered. Some of it has been very good, some of it has been very bad, and some of it is already gone. Here’s a look at what wasn’t covered last time. How to be a Gentleman (CBS –…

    The 2011 Fall Season: New Shows

    Since I’ve been quite remiss in reviewing things anywhere outside of Twitter and in person lately (like, for the past few seasons), I thought I’d round up some quick thoughts on what I’ve seen of the new 2011 Fall Season of shows so far. The beginning of the season is always a busy time for…

Grammer plays Chuck Darling, an ego-centric news anchor who finds himself back at the station he left ten years ago. That, of course, happens after he made…

  • New Season: Fox’s K-Ville

    Fox is once again getting the jump on the other three networks with it’s fall premieres. Monday night saw the debut of their new cop show, K-Ville. K-Ville, short for Katrinaville, is set in the 9th Ward of post-hurricane-trounced New Orleans. It follows the on the job and at home troubles of long-time local cop…

  • Tonight on 24… *boom*

    Well, the new season of 24 is most certainly off to an amazing start. In fact, with the way tonight’s second hour ended, I’m having trouble imagining just how they’re going to top it in hour 12, let alone hour 24. But maybe that’s because I’m still picking myself up off of the floor. It’s…
