Chuck: Chuck Vs the Tic Tac Review by Stephen Lackey, Critic
(March 16, 2010)
It’s about time we get some background on Casey outside of the fact that he has an alias. Having an alias is no big deal considering his line of work. He’s been a mysterious sort of figure that is often so stereotypical that much of his past can be ass

24: 3:00am – 4:00am Review by Stephen Lackey, Critic
(March 16, 2010)
Wow, this show has been on such a good run these last few episodes only to have it nearly grind to a halt with this installment. Luckily, the good stuff in this episode is really good, even if the bad stuff is well, really bad.

TRUE BLOOD Return Set by Jarrod Sarafin, Editor
(March 16, 2010)
HBO has officially set the third season return of their hit series "True Blood" for June 13, 2010. With the exit of Michelle Forbes as last season's villain, Alan Ball's vampire show has added new co-stars Alfre Woodard and Kevin Alejandro ("Southland") to

24 Cancellation Ticking by Jarrod Sarafin, Editor
(March 15, 2010)
For the past few days rumors have surfaced that 20th Century Fox and its television production company Fox TV were nearing an agreement to cancel their action series "24" due to declining ratings and production costs. The latest report from Michael Ausiell

Caprica: The Imperfections of Memory Review by Rob Vaux, Critic
(March 14, 2010)
"The Imperfections of Memory" acts as what we like to call a space-filler episode. It mainly bridges the points between more important shows, but struggles to create any identity of its own. Its primary revelation is saved for the end: an inevitable moment

Spartacus: Mark of the Brotherhood Review by Rob Vaux, Critic
(March 14, 2010)
Have we done castration yet? I don't think we've done castration yet. In any case, Spartacus can now cross it off the to-do list. Way to go, fellas. You should be very proud.

TV Wasteland: Waiting for the Aliens by Rob Vaux, Critic
(March 14, 2010)
FlashForward returns this week, after a lengthy hiatus which makes one wonder whether any fans are left who care enough to tune in. Not that it's the only show to take an extended break lasting months before viewers get a chance to see what happened.

HUMAN TARGET - 1.7 - "Salvage and Reclamation" Review by Rob Vaux, Contributing Writer
(March 12, 2010)
The Plane! The Plane! - Grade: B

10 Awful TV Theme Songs You Can't Get Out of Your Head by Rob Vaux, Critic
(March 12, 2010)
Some TV theme songs are welcome additions to our inner monologues: as familiar and reliable as an old pair of slippers. Others, however, are memorable for all the wrong reasons, and worse: once implanted in our skulls, they drive us to brink of madness and

Dragon Ball Z Kai, Voltron Panthera Force Set For Nickelodeon by Chris Beveridge
(March 11, 2010)
FUNimation's Dragon Ball Z Kai to hit the air this May along with Voltron Panthera Force.

Lost: Dr. Linus Review by Joe Oesterle, Critic
(March 10, 2010)
I swear to God, I uncontrollably spit out an audible snicker every time they show repeats of Ben stabbing Jacob in the chest. I’ve never seen such girlish stabbing in a full grown male. There’s little wonder Ben’s dad never wanted to have a catch

Chuck: Chuck Vs the Beard Review by Stephen Lackey, Critic
(March 09, 2010)
This episode, building on the events of the last few installments, does a fantastic job of making you feel the weight that’s on Chuck’s shoulders. Chuck has no problem putting his life on the line in the spy business, but the inability to blow off stea

24: 2:00am – 3:00am Review by Stephen Lackey, Critic
(March 09, 2010)
You know last week it seemed like the Dana Walsh story might be getting a little more interesting. The reality is that it felt more interesting because it was barely on screen. A bit more time was given to the story this week and it the story just falls fl

FRINGE Renewed by Jarrod Sarafin, Editor
(March 09, 2010)


Caprica: Know Thy Enemy Review by Rob Vaux, Critic
(March 07, 2010)
Spike's in the house y'all. Buffy's former foil (James Marsters) makes an intriguing new addition to the Caprica cast, playing the charismatic (and certifiable) leader of the Soldiers of the One terrorist movement.

Spartacus: Great and Unfortunate Things Review by Rob Vaux, Critic
(March 07, 2010)
"Great and Unfortunate Things" demonstrates beyond all reasonable doubt just how little Spartacus has when you cut out the titillation. It opens with copious humping and closes with pointless bloodletting, but in the middle, it actually presumes to tell a

TV Wasteland: Out Like a Lamb by Rob Vaux, Columnist
(March 07, 2010)
Late March and early April brings a number of shows back from hiatus, including FlashForward, V, and Stargate Universe. Until then, the remainder try to hold the line and keep us smiling. Let's get to it!

Chuck: Chuck Vs the Fake Name Review by Stephen Lackey, Critic
(March 04, 2010)
This may have been said before but Chuck’s life strongly mirrors that of Peter Parker. He’s the nerdy guy with secret super powers. Oh, and he has the sort of love life problems that most nerdy guys would beg for, just like Peter Parker did.

TRON Animated Series Rolling by Jarrod Sarafin, Editor
(March 04, 2010)
It seems that Walt Disney is planning a new "Tron" animated series to coincide their upcoming theatrical release of Tron Legacy. HR reports the Disney Channel the series to follow the release of the film (December 17, 2010).

24: 1:00 am - 2:00 am Review by Stephen Lackey, Critic
(March 04, 2010)
The last hour of 24 was the best of the season so far. This hour isn’t quite as strong as the previous one, but it is cut from the same mold, so there’s plenty of excitement and a decent cliffhanger too.

Porter Leading NOMADS by Jarrod Sarafin, Editor
(March 04, 2010)
Scott Porter ("Friday Night Lights", "Caprica") has been tapped as the lead in CW's adventure pilot "Nomads," says The Hollywood Reporter. The series is from writer Ken Sanzel and will be produced by Ridley and Tony Scott via their ScottFree shingle.

Lost: Sundown Review by Joe Oesterle, Writer
(March 03, 2010)
I certainly can’t fault this week’s episode for lack of action. Both incarnations of Sayid were in top mother-fucking, ass-kicking form Tuesday night. And while we do love to watch Sayid kick some mother-fucking ass, this show has never been about putt

HBO Lights Game of Thrones by Jarrod Sarafin, Editor
(March 03, 2010)
Nearly a year and a half after announcing their intentions to adapt George R.R. Martin's "Game of Thrones" to their network, HBO has officially given the greenlight to the highly anticipated fantasy series. HR reports the premium network has picked up the

Mulroney Leading ROCKFORD by Jarrod Sarafin, Editor
(March 02, 2010)
Thirty years after James Garner quit the private eye business, a new Jim Rockford has been found for NBC. HR is reporting that Dermot Mulroney is set to play the iconic private eye in what will be his first regular TV role.

Spartacus: Delicate Things Review by Rob Vaux, Critic
(February 28, 2010)
It was fun while it lasted: Spartacus’s flirtation with genuine drama comes crashing to a halt this week with another overheated exercise in premium cable programming run amok. Bad CGI violence and copious slave orgies dominate the proceedings, supported
