Pull Your Finger Out, Networks

Showtime has just announced it will be remaking the late 80’s show In The Heat of The Night, which starred Carroll O’Connor. This show was actually a television adaption of the Sidney Poitier film of the same name – which, itself, was based off a book – again, of the same name. Does anyone remember […]

Mulaney (Sundays 9:30 FOX)

I’ll keep this review quick. This was painful to watch on EVERY level. I know multi-cam sitcoms generally take a slagging off when compared to their single cam compadres – but this show isn’t even worthy of me taking the time to slag it off. It’s that bad. The writing is terrible, the acting is […]

Stalker (Wednesdays 10pm CBS)

Well, this show didn’t start off on the right foot with critics, and some fans. In case the title doesn’t say it all, Stalker is a show about Los Angeles detectives who investigate stalkers. No, not celeb stalkers – since as they pointed out in the pilot those kinds only equate to 10% of all […]

Manhattan Love Story (ABC Tuesdays 8:30pm)

Let’s talk about voice overs for a moment. Much like everything in the world, they work if use them right. Manhattan Love Story does not use them right. They use them as a lazy way of conveying the story and characterization. As a writer, you should know that voice overs need to progress the story, […]

SNL. What’s Up With Dat?

This is actually a heart breaking piece to write, because I grew up on SNL and it’s been a massive part of my life. I taped the show every week, and memorized every sketch hopeing one day I could make it there. With that said, I can no longer defend SNL’s mediocrity from the stand […]

We’re All Watching “Inside Amy Schumer”, Right?

… and if you aren’t, WHY NOT? For those not aware, Inside Amy Schumer is a sketch comedy show made for Comedy Central that stars, yes – you guessed it, Amy Schumer. She writes, stars, and performs portions of stand up on the show, and every single minute of it is pure bliss. I’ll be […]

What the F, Comedy Central UK?

Why don’t we just rename this channel to The Channel That Only Plays Friends? Because you know what, that’s practically ALL that’s on this network. Seriously, look for yourself. Go to the guide here. Click ANY day. What’s On?….. go on, I’ll wait while you do it. ………….. What? Friends is on? YEAH! I know, […]

black-ish (ABC Wednesdays 9:30pm)

Anthony Anderson plays upper middle class business man Andre (Dre) Johnson, who struggles to raise his black children with a sense of cultural identity in a predominantly white neighborhood. No, wait! I know what you’re thinking- “don’t preach at me television!”. But really, don’t think that! This show doesn’t preach, it makes you laugh. And laugh […]

Scorpion (CBS Monday 9pm)

The best way I can describe this show is The Big Bang Theory meets every Michael Bay film ever. I don’t like either of those, so you’d think I’d hate Scorpion – but I don’t. I don’t love it either though. Robert Patrick stars at Cabe Gallo, who enlists the help of a group of […]

My Reviews Will Be Back After This Brief Goldbergs Break

Ok, I didn’t finish my reviews for Scorpion or Forever yesterday but I have a great excuse – I was caught up in Goldbergs fever. For those that don’t know me very well, or haven’t ventured to my tumblr, you might not know that The Goldbergs is my favorite show on the air right now. […]
