I don't know how I feel about all the cast shenanigans on "House" this season. Many of us have known since the beginning of the season that Cameron would be leaving the show and that 13 and Taub would be back. So it made it a little difficult to get that into the whole Chase...

So here's my big announcement of the week. I think the big "CSI" trilogy worked. I do like Dr. Ray Langston better now than I did two weeks ago. Sure there were laughable moments. I couldn't stop giggling every time Horatio called him "Dr. Ray." I don't know how David Caruso can make saying someone's...

Sawyer. Tim Riggins. Don Draper. You all had some great guesses about who I would pick as the most charming character currently on TV. But I would still watch "Lost," if Sawyer wasn't there to give everyone a nickname. And my TiVo would still be religiously devoted to "Friday Night Lights," even if Tim Riggins...

Full confession - I think most of you know that I'm a Red Sox fan. So once the Sox are out of the baseball playoffs, the games going from nail-biting excitement to a sports event that gets in the way of my TV viewing. Thankfully the pesky World Series is out of the way and FOX...

You have to laugh at AMC's official description of Sunday's season finale of "Mad Men." "Don has an important meeting with Connie. Betty receives some advice. Pete talks to his clients." I'm all for keeping important plot twists and turns under wraps, but could they be any more vague? It's like a haiku about the...

I think you know my television pet peeve is when I'm able to play predict-a-plot. You know when ten minutes into a crime drama, you say "that's the killer" and you turn out to be right. Or to pick a very current example, you think you already knew what was up with the new neighbors on...

If I were ABC, I would be very worried that other networks would be plotting to steal my development executives away. I know we have had our issues with the network in the past (see the cancellation of "Eli Stone," "Samantha Who?," and "Life on Mars") but you have to admit they've been on a...

I feel like we've know each other long enough that I can tell you I waved at the TV when Tim Riggins first appeared during the fourth season premiere of "Friday Night Lights" (Wednesday at 9 p.m. on DirectTV's 101 Network). Yes I know deep down he's a fictional character but I was just so happy...

USA gets away with a lot by having absolutely charming male characters at the center of its dramas. "Royal Pains" would be a much more boring medical show without Hank. "Burn Notice" wouldn't sizzle as much without Michael Westen. And we all know that without Monk there wouldn't be a show. The network applies the...

I've been trying to figure out why some people (including me) have really been enjoying "Cougar Town" (Wednesday at 9:30 p.m. on ABC) and some people loathe it with a passion I reserve for shows like "Accidentally on Purpose" and "The Ex List." Sure shows and performances have divided us before and certainly one person's...
