[youtube id=”n2irZnQMovI”] You can always count on HBO to churn out an interesting show or two. But if this latest program doesn’t get you interested, I don’t want to be friends anymore. From the minds of Martin Scorsese, Terrence Winter (The Sopranos), and Mick Jagger, Vinyl is a series set in 1970s New York as record […]
[Review] MTV’s Scream: Betrayed
As I noted last week, I’m in full on hate watch mode for Scream at this point. But this week’s episode managed to turn that around just a bit. I don’t really know what’s going on at this point since there are so many poorly written plot points and character motivations, but I think it’s […]
Community is Probably Not Coming Back
There hasn’t been a show with a more tumultuous existence than Community. Creators and cast constantly leaving and returning, seasons where fans outright hated the show, cancellations, and finally moving to the Internet only Yahoo Screen.

We’re at the halfway point of the first (and hopefully only) season, and I’m in full on “hate watch” mode. The further the show […]
Key & Peele to End After This Season
After Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key started their Key & Peele sketch show on Comedy Central back in 2012, their comedy was finally noticed by the world. The two have been working together for a long time (since their time on MadTV, and long before that too) and now it’s time for their work to […]
[Review] MTV’s Scream: Aftermath
Like most horror television shows, MTV’s Scream is what you would call an “event” series. While nothing may be going on in the the day to day narrative, these kinds of shows rely on “events” to keep people hooked and talking. In The Walking Dead, for example, at the end of one of these event […]
Here’s the Reason Why The Muppets Are Coming Back to TV
[youtube id=”x2B5d-8H588″] The Muppets have made quite the comeback over the last few years. After Disney put out two very successful films, it’s time to branch out the Muppets to other properties. First being a new show on ABC that riffs on famous mockumentary style shows like The Office, Parks and Recreation, and ABC’s own […]
