September 30th, 2005 · No Comments

I’ve always found Chris Rock funny. Watched the premiere of his new show Everybody Hates Chris via Google Video. (An earlier post here.)
By now, you’ve probably heard that this is a Wonder Years type of show but with a pre-teen Chris in 1982 Brooklyn. Rock does the Kevin Arnold bit, narrating the [...]

September 30th, 2005 · No Comments

Caught Jennifer Garner on Leno the other night. After being so careful about revealing the gender of her baby, she inadvertently said “she” when referring to it when telling her story about the Hurricane marathon.

The Virtues of Veronica Mars

September 19th, 2005 · 1 Comment

Biggest Night for American Television

September 19th, 2005 · No Comments

It’s the night of the Emmys. I’m pulling for Arrested Development to win but the behemoth that is Desperate Housewives is unstoppable. For the life of me, I hope this is the last time that we see Will and Grace up in lights. They have outlived their heyday and should have changed [...]
